You agree we should not have back-stopped the collapse of the banking industry in 2008.But I happen to agree with him on that.
Mutually exclusive is a non-sequitur, of course YOU personally can hold those 2 views IN YOUR OWN MIND as "true", that was not the argument. You have avoided the argument once again. I'm not here to speculated on your ability to be irrational, that is self evident.I can both fear for my job and the collapse of the auto industry and be against the auto bailouts. The 2 are not mutually exclusive.

I'll assume you also did not support the bailout of GM/C and their suppliers.
So explain then why you would have wanted the greatest depression.

There was nothing "silly" or "insulting" in the post you responded to.So explain why you keep asking silly insulting questions instead of having an adult discussion.
In case you missed the inaugural address...
No wonder he is going to make America Great Again. He only has to stop convincing his supporters that it is in ruins. Let's get rebuilding.
Right Track / Wrong Track
When it comes to views on whether the country is headed in the right direction, just 31 percent of Clinton voters say the country is "seriously off on the wrong track."
Compare that to Trump voters -- a whopping 93 percent of whom say the country is on the wrong track.

But since you aren't a Trump supporter and haven't got the slightest clue what a Trump supporter thinks, your post is nothing but nonsense. If you are actually curious and would like to know what Trump supporters believe, why not just ask them? I know, because if you did that, you might actually learn something and be unable to make foolish posts.
I think the image most Trump supporters view as concerning are of closed down factories.
I think the quote Trump had that emphasized the "Make America Great Again" slogan was when he said, "I remember when cars were made in Michigan and you couldn't drink the water in Mexico, now cars are made in Mexico but you can't drink the water in Flint.". This is one of the causes driving the movement.
There was a time in America when "Made in America" was seen as prestigious and now that has largely become ignored. My issue is that rather than focus on government controlling that and instituting policies against it there should be campaigning and educating people that by buying items that are made in America you are supporting American workers and as long as people continue to buy, for example, a Ford made in Mexico there is no financial incentive for companies to remain here and support Americans.
They usually don't respond to threads that ask them to explain their thinking.
I think the Trump supporters believe that the country needs a course correction.
A course correction and a complete overhaul of the system so that power is wrested from a corrupt, self-serving permanent political class and returns it to the people as the Constitution intended. If he accomplishes nothing more than that--ridding us of the tyranny of political correctness and the permanent political class--he will do more for us than the previous four administrations put together. We will start electing public servants instead of professional politicians, and we will not be plagued with an incomprehensible mountain of laws, rules, regulations, and mandates that intend to direct every part of our lives.
I don't think he can fix it all in four or eight years, but he can make a damn good start. As one of his sons said one time, telling Donald Trump that something can't be done is like waving a flag in front of a bull. He loves problem solving and prides himself on finding solutions. The impossible just takes him a little longer than everything else.

"Made in America" isn't even a priority for Trump. Most of those "Make America Great Again" hats were made in China. His clothing line was made overseas. Suddenly he's had a change of heart?
Which one of those is Trump's house. Must be one of them since the whole nation is in shambles.
