[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump is not the problem here - we the voters are.  He is who he is and he hasn’t hidden it. He told a reporter that he would accept dirt of on a political rival from a foreign country. So why are we shocked that he does it?  He says his base would be with him if he shot a guy on 5th Avenue - so why are we are we surprised when he does the political equivalent and expects his support to hold.  He told us he likes the Chinese system of president for life. Why would we not believe that he would not in a clumsy fashion attempt to bring this about here?  This is also why I don’t actually think he will get us into a war with Iran or anyone else proactively- he has told us he doesn’t have a neocon bent

But “sophisticated” Trump voters tell us to ignore his words and focus on what his presidency accomplishes. Well, you can’t ignore his word - it is who he is.  He is open about it. And until the American voter stands up and says “that is not who I want as president”, he will continue doing these types of things. And the elected republicans will go along with it because they believe that is what their voters want. I would like to think I would be different if the tables were turned and Trump were a democratic president who was enacting health care reform and was an abhorrent human being. But given the polarization of the country, I am not sure how I would respond. How long would I defend the indefensible?  I don’t know but I think I am going to find out by watching my republican friends. [/quote]

Very true. Just imagine if we had a non-impulsive Trump who could actually hide his misdeeds. He would never, ever be brought to justice, unlike this one.
