How he deals with Liberals in unimportant.
I don't know why you think he isn't pissing off conservative RINOS and others.

I agree. Trump has managed to paralyze our government.

Trump's most presidential quality is that he's every bit the lying ***** that most other presidents have been.
I don't think he's so much a liar more so than just being in over his head.

Don't care what he said, what he does, what he stands for, what promise he breaks, etc.

the entire point of electing Trump was to spite liberals. That was it. And we got it.

The fact a NYC liberal billionaire was the stick we used to shove in their eye makes it all the funnier. In 2020 we get to stab them in their other eye with him again.
This is true. And they're soooo proud!

One of the main reasons I voted for Trump, was he was not a politician, I can't tell you how tired I am of politicians, I despise all of them. Reminds me of a joke, "What do you call 500 Politicians at the bottom of the sea, A good Start". That being said, I also voted for Trump, as the American government really needs to be run like a business, it can be efficient and profitable if it were run correctly.


In the private sector/corporate sector. If you are not working up to the company's standard, you will not keep your job.


In most government agencies, I would say 7 out of 10 do just enough to keep their jobs, that only leaves 3 out of 10 that will do an above average job. That leaves a fair amount of bloat in the government.


A successful billionaire knows how to run a business.

OK...we can all agree that Trump is a RINO. Even Repubs know it. However, they've spend the last few decades raining against RINOS. Now, they've elected one. So what was their beef in the first place?

Republicans have been screaming about the influence of the East Coast Ivy League Elite...Trump is East Coast Ivy League Elite, and so are all of his children.

Republicans said that private corporations are in business to make profits for their shareholders, and should do so by any means necessary since they have a duty to the shareholders.

Now they say that the president should go to Indiana and stop a corporation from doing just that.

So tell me...who is Donald Trump and what does he believe in politically/philosophically?
Russia Russia Russia! Look there goes a rabbit.

It was paralyzed before Trump announced his run.

The cause isn't Trump but he causes people to focus on, see and question it. That's a good thing. IMO

Yup, fear sells. Some folks feel 'fear motivates'. I disagree. Imho, fear often paralyzes, confuses, creates urgency, & makes one more likely to make mistakes both small & large. Very often fear triggers the old primal instinctual 'fight or flight' hormones to kick in. Thing is, in the present day, there's often a 'disconnect' to that instinct. Most times, in the day-to-day scenarios, most folks will find these fears to be overblown, misguided or displaced.

& in a sales situation? If someone is trying to sell something & seeks to make the buyer fearful? I suggest 'run like hell', it's most likely a con of some sort. Sales people are often conned into believing 'fear motivates' however they're being conned as well ~ with the fear of losing their job if they don't sell their quota.
