Thus I do not wish for him to chill in the least. In fact, I want him to keep upping the ante.
Why would I want for his numbers to benefit?

Bring it on, bring it all on, start the world war, start the race war, start the holy war.
Set it off.

I am right there with you my friend. Give him enough rope and he will hang himself.

If he does not hang the nation first.

Too late, we're already swinging from the proverbial tree.

Trump is the weapon of mass destruction sought after by elite ultra right wing billionaires and fundamentalist zealots who both share common ground, a seething hatred of both democracy and secularism. Both desire an authoritarian dictatorship, and since billionaires are insulated from the strictures and prohibitions of theocracy, its presence doesn't affect their lifestyle, and if anything, it enhances their grip on power.

The Trump Chaos Tornado is a carefully scripted psyop campaign designed to promote an increasingly feral society and to weaken America's basic democratic institutions. The end goal of the Trump agenda is to promulgate an eventual total breakdown in civil order, thus causing the masses to beg for a strongman to restore order, at any cost.

The ultimate goal of the Trump Republican Party is to render the United States utterly ungovernable.
Trump is merely the symbol and the symptom of a much larger problem, a devoutly stated intention to destroy the social contract and to replace it with a new order in which social and civil darwinism are enshrined via a state sanctioned kleptocracy.

I think you may be on to something here. The noecons can out-Trump Trump (got Bolton in) if need be. Let him be the most useful of idiots 2nd to GWB for their wars (the ignorant voters doing the fighting and dying) for US hegemony and the west will be 4 years closer to their New World Order.

World wide capitalist fascism.

Part Hunger Games, part Handmaid's Tale.
If we're only arguing the degree to which each of these twin dragons are loosed upon the body politic, we're normalizing it the way a drug addict normalizes their addiction.
 
Trump has done a fantastic job.Better than I could have imagined.We are blessed to have a man of his quality.He makes me proud to be an American.

I didn't want to taint the poll, so I'll voice my opinion in a separate post.

Trump--disaster
Pence--disappointing
Sessions--bigger disaster than even Trump
Flynn--20 year prison sentence sounds fair
Everyone from Spice to Mooch to Sanders--OMG
Rex, Kelly and Mad Dog--hey, he did something right
Munchkin, DeVoss and Bolton--and then he ****ed up again.

He gets only the best people.... Organization 101 or TeamBuilding 101: you are only as good as your people... only as good as your ability to attract, cultivate and retain good people.

As to the Trump Presidency, well Linda Ronstadt said it well....

So....what do you think of the president and his administration?

I said worse than expected, because I honestly didn't expect him to be such a disaster on the international front...and I never expected Canada and America to be at such odds, politically and economically. That was a shock. Otherwise he's about as I expected...

The only problem is that democracy * is a form of government that fundamentally is founded on the premise of majority rule. When you have a President, Senate and House of Representatives that are not reflective a the majority, you are working against the grains of democracy.

* - yes, I understand we are a democratic republic (which explains why we do not have representative government), but that is a FORM of democracy.

Through the twin vehicles of dime store sermonizing and magna cum laude victimhood, Trump administration officials seek a holy war against anything that stands in the way of inserting fundamentalist dogma into the everyday business of government.
Women, gay people, non-Christians, immigrants, even ordinary liberals, be prepared to fight for your right to just survive because your very existence is viewed by Trump's holy minions as "an attack on their right to worship", even if by worship they mean "to attack your right to exist".

Trumpism is the textbook example of Karl Popper's Paradox of Intolerance writ large.

He's spot on too. But, you're probably not willing to really admit it because you like the wrong direction that the country is now taking.

Nope -- substantially he's wrong. A lot of conservatives are just like me -- atheists -- or at least secular in political theory.
 
I'd have to go with PG-13, maybe a soft R.
 
My expectations of Trump were very low, and so far he is meeting them.
 
He has turned out to be exactly what he thought him to be, Unfit.

Odd to be in bed with religious whackos then.

Conservative by definition is anathema to religious whacko interference in governing. But, that was lost somehow over the past 50 years. Pity that.
 
The worst president in my life time. he is suppose to be the only president where cia, fbi, doj and media is out to get him for personal reasons. when Hillary was being investigated was it a witch hunt??? when reagan was being investigated was it a witch hunt? They said nothing to the media it was. they just let the investigation go its course ad testified in them

There's the old saying that, if you throw a corn cob into a pigsty, there's always one pig that gets hit and that's the pig that squeals the first and the loudest.
That's Trump's reaction to these investigations in a nutshell!

Back when conservatives had some brains.
True, they pissed me off a lot back then, too but I had to respect them more!
