You always have to respect your opponent, especially when he has nukes just like you.


Trump's approach is a lot better than acting like a MAD COWBOY and calling him a THUG, KILLER, LOW LIFE and then expect to sit down with him to make deals and keep the peace.



its like calling your neighbor a low life, thug, POS and then inviting him for BBQ and pretend nothing happened and expect him to go along.....lol

I think you missed his point.

I've rather lost my appetite for arguing about Trump, or even discussing him at all, but I do want to point out one thing about your poll: there is no option for those who are undecided or still withholding judgment.

A better poll might be along the following lines.

Satisfied
Uncertain
Dissatisfied

If you want to bring happiness into it, how about this?

Happy
Satisfied
Uncertain/Neutral
Dissatisfied
Unhappy

I don't consider happy and satisfied to be the same thing, as one speaks of pleasure, and the other of "well, it'll do," while not being truly neutral, either. Along the same lines, if I am dissatisfied with a product, I just won't buy it again. If I am truly unhappy, it is going to be returned.

Trump has been in office for less than 1 month and the hysteria coming from the MSM and Democrat is hilarious.

Comeback in 1 year or 2................Trump has been in office for less than 1 month.....that's like trying to analyze a football game in the 1st minute of the first quarter.......haters are going to hate no matter what.

Very happy! I'd be even happier if the media would stop lying and just shut up.

No, "we" don't know the media polls are "so far off base." Most of the national polls right before the election showed Clinton ahead by a few; that turned out to be quite accurate, she won the popular vote by just over 2 percent. The other thing the polls got wrong is they underestimated Trump in rural areas of a few states.

All I ever hear is the right complaining about the left and vice versa.
People lack respect when attempting to have discourse. If you (general you) think your opinion is the only correct opinion and are disrespectful to those with differing opinions, nothing is going to be resolved. The minute someone disagrees I start seeing the childish "*******, snowflake, tRump, tiny hands, etc.... I know that there will be little or no chance of finding common ground.
Let's be honest, the minute that someone expresses that they aren't happy with something that Trump is doing or saying people automatically start blaming the left and the MSM instead of listening and attempting to understand why they feel this way.
He's the president and unification should be a major priority. He should rise above the criticism because that is what a mature adult does. Stop the blame game and show us that he has everyone's interests at heart, not just those that voted for him.
I'm looking at this from a psychological perspective. That is what I do.
But a lot won't meet with him from the other side. Those who have had success. What exactly should he do?

CBC won't meet with him, he's tried. But, Martin King the third did meet with him, it went well. While I think you are correct, there is only so much he can do in the face of all this opposition. This is not the usual dislike we have going on here, lets face that fact. Comparing this to Obama or Bush is hardly equal.

awful poll, 66% of answers are positive which means they need to be discounted or over weighted..


Lousy poll, and frankly I am pretty sure OP knew it but wanted to shove the results to the positive side... funny to see the OP failing even with the cheating..

Well, rest assured that if Hilary had won it would be the same. All of this would still be happening because it's the times, not the person. We seem to cycle round and round. The good news is after the 60's comes the 70's and 80's.
I feel sorry for anyone who became president now. These protest and riots were already starting last year and will continue for a while. It doesn't seem to matter what they stand for, it's just the times.

What's noticeable is the fashion trends going with it. Sixties fashion is alive and well right now. So is decor. It's the times.

trump is performing pretty much how liberals thought he would perform.


Unqualified for the job and it shows.

"well oiled machine" , my car is a well oiled machine. Does trump even know what that term means.
Do any of his supporters know what that means?
