When are you going to give us someone better to vote for that's better than Trump?
Just look at the hysterics you've been pulling for the last 3 years.
Look at the far left agenda you now promote.

Open borders.
Free chit for everyone and illegals.

You Dems have gone Berserk.
You can't even control AOC and the other radical Progressive idiots.

Hell yes I'm voting for Trump again.
Stock markets above 27300 today and up 50% in 2 years.
Unemployment is at zero.
Blacks are working.

You have no one that can take on the Economy, jobs and China.

Shut down the border and we might talk.
Exactly. The actions of many on the left are showing how they’re pushing for open borders and free healthcare for illegals. Difficult to dispute.

I have a friend from Holland who was shocked when he found out English is my only language

it's normal to learn several languages growing up in more educationally advanced countries
"honestly, it would be wonderful if we taught our kids to be multilingual"

Always with the "we".

If YOU want to teach your kids another language, go for it. o body is stopping you.

Beside when I went to school we could take, French, Spanish or Latin.

And what does this have to do with the subject of the thread?

Correct. Don't confuse pro-Trump as pro-America. This is the problem in comprehension Trump supporters have.

The accusation that I’d levy is more towards the Republicans than the Democrats. Why couldn’t Republicans come up with a candidate in 2016 who could have defeated Trump? Why can’t the Republicans find a candidate now, who could “primary” him? I don’t want to see a Bernie/AOC-style president any more than you do.



Partially. In my case, it’s less about party-affiliation than with world-view, or perception of what government, nation and society ought to be. My critique of Trump is from the right, not from the left. My critique is of his unexamined and crude populism, rather than his being “too conservative”.



If I were French, my interests and preferences would align with those of Paris, rather than rural France, or its small towns. If I were German, my interests and preference would align with those of Berlin or maybe Munich, rather than those of rural German, or its small towns. If I were English, my interests and preferences would align with those of London, rather than those of rural England or its smaller towns. As an American, my interests and preferences align with those of NYC/Boston/DC/LA/SF, rather than those of rural America or its smaller towns.

It’s unlikely that the Remain vote in England “hates” England. It’s just that its vision of England is that of a global Britain, open to the world, engaged with the world, aligned with it. Do you see the analogy? This is my vision for America.
COLIN POWELL??? He lied and enabled a group of scoundrels that took us to a useless and unjust war. No, at least Trump is averse to war although he can tip over any time.

Those cry-baby Democrats are about ready to pull out their Zoloft and Prozac, grab their warm fuzzy blankies and grab a bag of marshmallows... now that they realize Trump is going to WIN!
