Let's keep a rolling list of Trump's blatant hypocrisy and question why conservatives don't even have enough integrity in their beliefs and principles to care and criticize the President where he has fallen short of his own proclamations. I'm sure there's a lot more.

With Trump, it's all "do as I say, not as I do." Even as a conservative, that should bother you. And before Trump shills come in with "but, Obama!..": he's no longer President, and his past hypocrisy doesn't undo or justify Trump's current hypocrisy. There are other threads where Obama rightfully gets heat for his stuff.

What happened to a leader leading by example? Can we ever get one of those here again?

Vacationing & Golfing
Trump THEN: shameful how much Obama golfs, I would never do it!
Trump NOW: golfing every 5th day and constantly at his resorts; spending most of travel & security of any President in recent memory.

Unemployment & Stock Market
Trump THEN: The unemployment rate and all the good economics stats are a lie! Real rate is 5x higher, just Fed money driving the past 7-year stock market growth.
Trump NOW: Look how low the unemployment rate is, all because of me! I'm a genius who made the stock market climb for the past 6 months!

Anonymous Sources
Trump THEN: If it's an anonymous source, it's Fake News!
Trump NOW: Look at this FOX News article with anonymous sources - it proves my argument! Did I mention recently how I loved WikiLeaks?

You seem very eaten up over the thoughts and actions of others. It might do you some good to stop worrying about others and focus on yourself more.

You only have one life. Don't waste it being bitter and angry on the internet because we currently have a president that you don't like and because some people simply don't view him with the same rancor that you do.

How do Democrats feel about the blatant hypocrisy in their own party?

You can't expect others to do what you will not do yourself.

I'd think you'd be more concerned about it with the Democrats and the Democrat party.

They after all are the ones losing elections.

But if you want to keep making lists of the party & president you don't support, then have at it. Don't let us stop you.

There are no elections right now. What matters is how our Command and Chief runs the country and he is failing bigly. Keep spinning and deflecting.

Sure, so let's go ahead and just put it out there: the Democratic party is composed of hypocrites, and it's a shame. There. Not gonna argue against it. Happy?

Now, back to the point you're trying to avoid: what do you have to say about TRUMP'S hypocrisy?. You're probably his top cheerleader, so why do you give him a free pass.on these things?

It matters even more because, after all, he won the election and is supposed to be leading this nation forward. How good of a leader is he if he can't lead by example?

Who cares about elections right now? I don't. I am not Democrat and I am not a Republican. I care about what direction the country is going and right now it is going down the drain with Trump.

Deflect. Wash, rinse and repeat.

LOL! What are you, CD Forum's answer to Dear Abby? Shut up and get a life unless you happen to be a member of Cult 45? Why don't you make your wisdom known in the crazy threads around here where people think a nuclear war with N. Korea would be a good idea or thread after thread beating up on the millenials merely for being young people or urging war in America's streets should Trump be legally impeached? I suspect that the poster you replied to is not the only one "who needs to get a life." You must be a troll in training or maybe a bot or a paid poster.

Whatever.
