I'm very sorry to say this, but I must...this post is a perfect example of contempt and so much dislike for someone, it's sad, b/c that's all that can be seen by you...or all your mind will allow you to see...and that is sad...and if you talk like this around your kids, they will most certainly bully other kids, b/c your the adult, your the parent, and they will parrot you...

I disliked Obama's agenda a great deal...but I would never ever talk about him like this...I would point out parts of his agenda that I didn't agree with...of which there were many....

We are not gulible, we as voters wanted a President that wasn't going to make promises just to gain votes...those who voted for him wanted a Wall and want our immigration laws revisited and shaped into something that works. We wanted work to stay in this country.

You see, as much as the dems refuse to vision, and look and look and look for excuses of why Trump was elected, i.e. The Russians got involved, etc.... People were sick and dog dead tired of being told what they could or could not say. They were tired of working hard all their lives, only to have our government, give away money and benefits to users, and drug addicts, and woman who had more children so she could gain more welfare money. We were so tired of people coming into this country, illegally, and our hard earned tax dollars were being given to them....I mean, lets face it, everyone at some point in their lives might need some financial help, but to live off the people, is disgusting.

We were also sick of crime...we wanted less taxes, we wanted our military built up again, we wanted criminals to pay for their crimes instead of just being smacked on the hands....we wanted executive orders enforced, we wanted better trade deals, we wanted businesses to stay in this country, most of us wanted to work again, to have better health insurance, For the first time in more than a decade, growth is projected to exceed 3 percent over the calendar year. Now them there sir, are some amazing accomplishments for someone who was told, he couldn't beat the establishment.

What dems and Pelosi, fail to see, due the the extreme hate they have for Trump, is the fact that WE THE PEOPLE, GOT UP OFF OUR DUFFS AND WENT OUT TO THE POLLS AND PULLED THE REPUBLICAN TICKET FOR TRUMP. Yupper that's true, and for no other reason, but the fact that the PEOPLE spoke.

There were an awful lot of dems who switched sides b/c they were sick and tired of our government doing nothing.

We the people were hungry, for someone like Trump who wasn't part of the Establishment and wouldn't be bought out by major corporations, like Disney...who now owns not only Action News, but Fox News...talk about power.

You see, that's why Trump is hated so much, and people like you, unfortunately feed off of that hate for him that they project.

The proof was right there before your eyes, the weeks leading up to the election...how those dem stations were reporting Hillary was ahead. See, while I'm an Independent, I'm a much older woman, and I remember the crap that Hillary pulled, unlike most young people....

The very sad part about all this is, when they go out and interview, college students, the next leaders of our country, and ask them whey they hate Trump...they grow silent, and they can't answer that question....do you know why? Because, like you, they are being told to HATE Trump...and buying it, b/c next election, they are hoping to gain the Presidency again...and they might very well do so...but one thing for certain, do not under estimate "The People", as our politicians have, b/c when they've had enough, they stick together....and baby, this last election was in fact historic.

Because Trump made that idiotic comment about woman, some 13 years ago, they started painting him as a womanizer...and yet, I've heard that kind of locker room talk, growing up with guys...but boy oh boy did the press run away with that, they finally got some thing on him....

Well if the man accomplishes what he promised while in office, I don't really care if he made that kind of comment. I made comments to, when I was young, that hurt others...and so have you.

You won't do this, but just by chance, if you want to read something, incredible, read this...let go of that hatred, that willingness to dislike someone and tear them apart piece by piece because your being told to do so, by the very politicians who encouraged the sale of human slavery....read the following...

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/w...romise-keeping

Granted, Trump embellishes, and boasts and isn't the smooth talking public speaker that Obama was...
for certain...but, he has made more accomplishments than any other president in my lifetime....

remember, hate chews a person up and spits them out....and believe you me, what it says in the Bible is so true..."The sins of the father will befall the son" or something to that effect. If you wish to be true to your party that's fine, but I chose not to be...and voted for someone who wasn't part of the establishment...owned by huge corporations and blood money.

Yeah, he's def, got his bad points, but for the most part, he is doing what he promised to do, and no matter how Pelosi, slings it, a wall is needed...if walls didn't work, they wouldn't have them around their homes...and by God, the Berlin Wall worked, the Great Wall of China worked...

Americans are sick and tired of loafers, they want people in this country who are willing to become American Citizens...people who want to change their lives, not push cultures of other countries down our throats....but to work together as a team, to build, not tear down....we don't want socialism....we don't want open boarders, we want regulations and effective laws to govern our country.

We are tired of criminals with rap sheets a mile long, claiming police brutality....we are tired of the drugs claiming our lives, we are tired of the tent cities that have taken over our once beautiful cities, it's time for America to clean up the ****....and invest in our children's future, to instill in our children, laws and rules to live their lives by....we are tired of gangs, we want our people of all races educated, we want all our people to understand, this IS AMERICA, and to learn English...we want people in this country who are willing to assimilate. Those are the people who get to come into this country, the hard workers, those who wouldn't take anything for free, even if they needed it....people who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty and fight for the rights of others...accomplishing a deeply imbedded positivity and respect for laws and rules.

And that sir, and so much more is why Trump was elected....so hate away...it will do you no good but make you a miserable ol' thief, stealing your life away, that could have been productive and positive. In order to see the truth, you've got to be able and willing to look at both sides...unbiased and open for knowledge.

Ummm...there's a difference between making an off-hand comment to fit in with your friends and advocating for sexual assault. The culture of "locker room talk" is problematic to say the least, but your attempt to equate what Trump said to a bunch of jocks making misogynistic comments shows that you truly missed the point of why that video enraged so many people.

Let's translate your comment in that framework to "if he does what he said he would do, I don't care if he sexually assaulted someone 13 years ago." We've all hurt other people in our lives, but admitting to and advocating for sexual assault...I'd be willing to bet that's not quite as common as simply saying something offensive (at least I would hope )

Yeah, he's def, got his bad points, but for the most part, he is doing what he promised to do.

Americans are sick and tired of loafers, they want people in this country who are willing to become American Citizens.

.people who want to change their lives, not push cultures of other countries down our throats, we want people in this country who are willing to assimilate.
1. Yes you are gullible you feel for the same B.S lines that Obama and Hillary voters did. Trump lied every much as the others did. He had no plan for health care and still doesn’t. He told everyone that Mexico would pay for the wall, and don’t waste your breath saying that he didn’t mean it like that, you know he did.

2. Trump is part of the establishment he’s the very Definition of the establishment.

3. As president Trump made a sexist statement about thr French Presidents wife.


4 and 5. No he hasn’t just stop.

6. Most Americans are in fact lofers themselves.

7. So you are okay pushing this country’s way of life down the rest worlds throat. It sounds like you like you want a bunch of mindless people, who should have free speech taken away from them.
What are you the Borg?

many of the things you stated are not accurate nor have they been b accomplished by Trump and his cronies

for example
1.we do not have better health insurance
2 under his removal of previous protections insurance companies had to follow,drug prices have risen and less drugs are covered especially in small group plans
3.his tax cuts favor the wealthy
4.Berlin wall and wall of China only pointed out a dictatorship and was not for safety
5.under his trade problems farmers bankruptcy has rapidly increased
6.drugs are coming into this counry by mail and hidden in vehicles
7.illegal residents here cannot get your tax dollar benefits
8.your president has been hiring illegals for years and cheating them a just wage


I could go on but facing reality is not hate and not being fooled by a con man is
merely looking at things without rose colored glasses

insulting posters who on do not buy drumf 's (real name) lies is not nice
