Go back and re-read your copy of 'Rules For Radicals' - it's all there in black and white. Remember, your girl Hillary Clinton admired Saul Alinsky.
If you are honest and do your homework, I believe you'll find that Hillary Clinton's admiration for Alinsky took place when she was in college, while she was in her late teens. I am sure she has matured, learned, grown, and changed since those days and is not stuck in the past, unlike some.

I am one year older than Hillary, and am thankful no one seems to condemn me for things I said and did when I was 19.

This was not done for Senator McCain & is quite disrespectful and shows the pettiness of this man child president.

I had no ill feeling for this man when he took office BTW. He is constantly showing what a spoiled lying mean person he is.
He never served in the military due to bone spurs and didn't remember which foot it was when asked...hmmm
Such a darn shame we have someone like this running the country.
He has the ability to bring this country together but, misses it every time.

But it is true that he has done a lot for the military folks so I can see why they would look past it, but it should never be forgotten.
He did lower the flags at the White House. If I remember right, it's noon on day of death through the next day (flag code).

Now McCain is a moderate to the lefties. Anyone who is not a Socialist Commie is a moderate.

Maybe because he is NOT helping us, in any way I can recognize.

Trump is weakening our public school system, devastating our environment, greatly increasing our national debt, consorting with known criminals, oligarchs, and totalitarian enemies of our country while alienating our traditional, long time allies and leaders of other western democracies, separating small children from their parents (I don't care what the parents did or how they got here, that's another matter - separating families is wrong, just wrong, and losing track of them is evil), refusing to admit refugees who are fleeing for their lives and who face death if sent back, while he is a habitual liar, has no depth of knowledge of our country's history or government, is ignorant and lacks intellectual curiosity, is lazy and self-indulgent, has no respect for others, is a serial adulterer, a negligent parent, and is none too bright. He is dividing our people and demonstrating callousness and disregard for those who disagree with him. He is racist. He is pro-Russian. He is incompetent and corrupt.

For those who think his business record equates to brilliance, look again. Multiple bankruptcies, hiring illegal aliens, cutting corners in construction, cheating students at his so-called university...

The man is disgusting as a human being and while I wish him no harm, he has absolutely no business being involved in American government, much less sitting in the Oval Office.

Trump is a disgrace to the office of President of the United States of America.

When this president stops his bullying and shows empathy and compassion towards his fellow Americans & not just a select few, when he tries his best to bring this country together instead of dividing us, when he stops his constant lying, then and only then will I support him.
No whining here, just the truth, Obama Obama Obama...who's whining?

This shows how ludicrous your partisan hackery is. Antifa is a disgusting violent unlawful org, why would any decent person support that? That's like saying anyone who is a conservative supports the Westboro Baptist Church.

By American standards, yes.

That being said the policies (not the way they wish to express them) are center right to solid right.
