I separate politics from people. I'm friends with people who's political beliefs don't match mine. Ironically, most of the people that work for me differ, I don't care.

We all know Cheney was the president then.

There's nothing intelligent about a joke making light about an unofficial dictator making it official. It's in our interest China moves towards democracy, not autocracy. As they seek to project power, they'll become another Russia on the path they're on.

Go back under your rock.

So Jeb! predicted that chaotic Left wing news coverage of Trump would continue into his administration with every manner of vitriol and manufactured scandal?

He's a genius. Can we still get him for president?

Were you upset when Obongo made a special Olympics joke?


Under a rock eh? Don't you have a Haymaker workout to attend? Don't forget your soy sports drink...

HUGE difference between a band and THE president making a statement like this.

A band? I'm afraid Obongo was president when he made that joke!

Not to mention the power of pardons, security clearances, and nukes. It's weird that we never considered that this type of power would be an issue for an elected person in the whitehouse. It's fine if someone wins the presidency, but this election proves that we need to consider how much power the government can grant to one person. He was implementing executive orders (transgender troop ban, immigration ban) via twitter, or trying to.

Oh I understand the "anybody but Hillary" mentality. But if they could just admit that he's got issues but he's still not Hillary, that would be one thing. But being unable to acknowledge any mistakes he makes, when we know nobody is perfect, makes them impossible to reason with.
