1. How is our national defense stronger when Trump is alienating our allies? How is it stronger when our military largely ignores him? 2. I hate to break it to you, but the majority of Rs in Congress voted in favor of TPP. There are also many R in Congress who support H1Bs. There are also many Rs in congress who don't want strong labor controls and higher minimum wage to help American workers. Trump could help bring back jobs by starting with his own, but again, you ignore that bit. You realize that Trump is making an a$$ all by himself, without the media's help? You think it's only the US media that lampoons him? Oh, dear, go read some international news source, and you'll see our's our pretty tame in comparison. 3. Then what reputable, non biases news source do you use? I'm honestly curious. Again, you refuse to open your eyes. |
I'm the +1 poster. A key difference I see between Trump voters and the people launching into attacks against those who voted for him is that the former focus on issues, and the latter resort to focusing on the person, ala Orange Virus, while calling us racist, KKK sympathizers, morons, etc. It reminds me of the saying that first-rate people talk about issues; second-rate people talk about things; and third-rate people talk about other people. Stay focused on the results, people. As the PP said, reduced illegal immigration, stronger defense, a reduction in strangling business regulations, the Supreme Court Justice, and more. |
1. General Mattis makes our national defense stronger. General Kelly at DHS made our national defense stronger. LEA's are stronger when they have support to follow the laws on the books. 2. R&D can vote as they wish and eventually they will need to answer to their constituents who will decide. I support legal immigration 100%. The Clinton Admin couldn't even deal efficiently with guest worker program the states' agriculture geowers were begging for. This issue is older than all of us and I cut my political teeth supporting immigrant farm workers until I was denied an earned opportunity due to the color of my skin because, "this wasn't my fight." 3. Congressional Record, federal register, census bureau, agency press releases, WSJ, WP, Barron's, Economist to name a few. I also enjoy authorized autobiographies. |
This. This. This. |
Kelly, as in Chief of Staff Kelly who doesn't like Trump and is only serving because of love of country, the man who has gotten rid of most of Trump's allies in the WH? Ok. "Agency Press Releases" aren't biased? And you know that Trump himself has argued against some of agency reports? The Econimist says basically Trump sucks: "Donald Trump has no grasp of what it means to be president" and "President Trump flunks a moral test" You must ignore those articles. |
And, it seems to me that the results such as you listed are things that liberals cannot argue against so they resort to their name calling and character assassination. All of the things you listed are good and these are things Americans can get behind.... liberals know that so they deflect to talking about people instead of issues. |
I am referring to those sources, amongst many others over a couple of decades. You can't stop because this is the way your brain is wired. I am focusing on the outcomes. We could go down the sorted personal transgressions of revered presidents but, look at the time... |
Well, one of the outcomes is that this country is even more divided than ever, and our "dear" leader can't/won't/doesn't seem capable of repairing that rift; that even with the Rs controlling all three branches of our government, they can't get anything major done, like repealing and replacing ACA. One of the few bipartisan things R congress has done is to write up a non binding resolution for Trump to denounce white supremacists. I agree with this outcome. |
He'll say not interested. Why would he need to repeat himself? |
Nope. |
Clap it out with me: Neo-Nazis and KKK are not embraced by Republicans. This is your strategy for 2018? Will I need to smear blood across my door in order for Antifa to passover my house? Am I being punked right now? |
Hi. I'm your +1 poster from above, and we are really in sync. Of the sources you list, I agree with all of them, except for the WP. It used to be only slightly biased to the left, but ever since Trump won the nomination, they have done a full-throttle NYT on us. Every single headline looks like it was written by a member of the oppo research team, and I can't tell the difference between the front page and the editorial section. |
DP. If Republicans truly reject Neo-Nazis and the KKK, then they should nullify any votes they receive from anybody in those organizations. |
Why the theatrics? Why do dramatic? It is so weird. |
Why don't you run that by the ACLU first. |
