So true! When I stated my opposition to Obamacare (it was simple math that it couldn't work, and the death spiral was a certainty), I was accused of being against it because "a black man" was behind it. Jeez.

I'm with you. I can't stand his personality - childish and crass - and I am disappointed that he hasn't done anything to ramp down on out-of-control spending. Other than that, his policies are far superior to those the Democrats are pushing (such as health care for illegals, sanctuary cities, free college, guaranteed wages for those unwilling to work, and....how could I forget.....reparations), and he will have my vote over any of the Dems currently vying for the nomination.

To them all Muslims are the same. It saddens me to realize how ignorant many of my fellow Trump voters are. I thought they liked Trump because he wasn't establishment. Yet they uncritically take the establishments view that Iran is the enemy.

Simpletons think conservatives supported Trump. It saddens me to realize how ignorant many of my fellow American voters are.

Default Nice thread title to begin civil discourse

Clearly, you are not on former VEEP Biden’s team.

Yes, when you "disagreed" with Obama and then come with a slew of personal insults, political and religious insinuations...............people tended to think that.

Nice touch with the simpleton call out... Trump supporter here, and anti Muslim , yet I think retaliation over the drone being shot down is stupid. We poked the hornets nest and they called us on it.
This is a tough situation and I don't see a valid solution to it. I hate to say it but Iran is calling the shots here.

I remember in the mid 70's a pic of Mickey Mouse giving the finger on the back windows of pickups, with a caption "Hey Iran". Attitudes haven't changed much. I would post it but it would probably get flagged.

LOL.

Anyone interested in conserving anything of value voted for Trump.

Your "conservatives" aren't conservative at all.
