What you are writing above doesn't even come close to being true when you think in terms of our own revolution. Where is it written that it has devolve into such extremes that you mention? And how much more disastrous would it be than where it is now? Take a good look where we were not to long ago and where we are now - It's a slow boil.

I don't know about you but I am semi-retired at 51 and don't need to work another day the rest of my life - and I'm still very dissatisfied with where our country is currently and where it might be going....

Right, let's just ignore an added $10 Trillion in debt under O - with nothing to show in return. What is the metric one uses to define "fiscally conservative" in that environment?

Can you even imagine how ape**** the RWNJs would have gone if Obama had proposed a $10 billion project that wasn't rooted in xenophobia and racism?

Trump supporters really need to admit they're fascists. There is no coherent political ideology at play-- just hate, fear and anger.

Nothing except the fact that there was no depression in 2009.

Trump has put his economic plan forward, and it is fiscally conservative. the suggestion that Hillary is a republican wo social conservatism is either ignorant or a lie.




but it doesn't represent any form of truth.
"Trump has put his economic plan forward"

Many keep saying "What are his positions?"

They DON'T bother to find out, they just keep repeating the same line.
