See, it's comments like this that make Trump supporters so intransigent, because it is so patently untrue. There are quite a few Trump supporters who are NOT happy with the direction things have gone and who don't like certain things that Trump has done/not done. I'll give you two examples: the appointment of Pompeo and Bolton and the regime change attempts in Venezuela. And that's just two. There are more. Some of us aren't happy with the apparent takeover of the administration by Bushies. Some of us didn't care for the Supreme Court picks, on the basis of their support for torture. But did any of the Democrat Senators deal with real issues in the hearings? No, they turned it into a circus based on lies and innuendo, and in Kavanaugh's case, made him a martyr and a figure of sympathy. Idiots. They might have gotten farther with the truth of the man rather than the lies.

Thoughtful, intelligent people who are not Trump supporters would look at this and think: "Where can we make common cause? Where can we open a constructive dialogue and move things in a better direction?" Jimmy Dore does this, a little bit. But he, too, is drowned out by propagandized crazies.

When you use terms such as "followers" and start spouting drivel like "Hitler" and "Jim Jones", you lose any chance to open a dialogue. And really, I don't think you want to. You just want the smears and the fighting, which basically means you're not interested in making common cause to handle those things that need handling.

Paraphrasing what Bill Maher told Adam Schiff, at this point you look like a bunch of stalkers.

No sane man acts and talks this way, he can't even control himself long enough to give a 5 minute speech without saying stuff that makes you shake your head. There are no words to describe how bizarre he was during this event.

"Product of the media"? What? "I like you more than your parents"? Shut the eff up, seriously. Totally inappropriate, 24/7.

Could have been worse.
That is true.

The shooter hates Trump. Hates conservatives, too.

What do you expect from Demented Donald Trump? Most people who had an aging parent who is as disturbed as Trump would have that parent placed in a nursing home. Why is it that here in America we allow him to be president? Could it be that the reason Trump is allowed to remain in office is because his swamp creatures are running away with all the money? Charter schools are a good example; under Trump just about anyone can form a corporation, get a P.O. box, name it "The Charter School for Morons," and file for government funding. After receiving government funds they pay themselves huge salaries and when the funds run out, file for bankruptcy. Under Besty DuVose that's happening all over the country. I wonder how much smiling Besty has stuffed in her bra. Also consider the landslide of bills being passed that benefit the corporations at the cost of the people.
The elites have us watching their sock pocket they are stealing America blind.

Do Trump a favor and let's get him settled at the Happy Valley Rest Home.

When I look at Donald Trump in his earlier years, he was at least somewhat coherent. He was still a snake, ripped people off left and right, but he could carry on a somewhat sensible conversation. As he has aged, he has gotten embarrassingly out of touch. He rambles on and on, repeats the same thing over and over, and looks like he is wondering where the Hell he is.

If this guy was your next door neighbor, you would get your groceries out of the car and into the house as fast as possible, just in case he spotted you and wanted to strike up a conversation. Talking to him would be a painful experience.
