You mangle our honor with your lack of understanding and pretend to know us. You don't. Your deceit shines through your posts. You don't care about us, you don't want us to succeed.

WE Honor him because he is the President. He has faults and flaws and we see them. But we honor the office and his work bringing our nation to successful outcomes. All you see and blinded by it and your juvenile hatred is those flaws.

And, yes given these times, people who trash America to us are criminals.

You say "pander" and you don't have a clue not one why we like the man. We are caring, hard working people.

Base. Pander. Enemies.

We don't think that way. Hopefully to this you will know why.
This is a beautiful post. Wish I could rep you again.

A good president would make every effort to find s solution for the problems in the nation, but Trump purposely does the exact opposite. He panders to the base, and plays people against each others, which is the last thing this country needs. It would have been better if he had shut his face and stayed in his bunker.

I know you adore and worship him, so you'll never see any fault in him no matter how obvious it is.

To him, and people like you there is only 'us' (his base) and 'them' (everyone else), and 'them' are considered enemies, as can be seen in your attempts to falsely associate everyone who is non-base to rioters.
trump does not lay down like a dog to those that oppose him. there are very few undecided and those are the ones he's taking to - making sure they understand his undying love of country, our way of life, America first and no to socialism, communism and liberalism.

we have a president who means what he says and does what he says and the left just hates the fact that he wont lie down like bush did or those weak kneed wussies in congress

His speech restored our confidence that there is NOTHING wrong with being proud of our country and it’s wonderful history. We needed that. It petrifies progressives it seems to see Americans unite in love for our country. We’re not buying the crap they’re selling.

Exactly. There is literally nothing Trump or anyone else could do or say to change the position of these small-minded, hateful people. To hell with them.

Really? A speech did that? Wait a minute, he’ll change his mind. Trump is the only one Trump cares about.

Back at ya ...

Trump is the most corrupt, unethical and immoral president we have ever had. He doesn't even have an agenda.

Trump's agenda is Trump, whatever comes into his head at any given moment, or whatever is placed there by his rich friends. He doesn't have a plan for the future, only "that he knows more people now". That's it, his whole agenda for the next four years out of his own mouth.

Now that he knows his way around a bit better, his grasping hands will take anything that is not nailed down.

He works for us. All of us, you and I included. Don't confuse the office of the president with the corrupt individual you see there. The office endures ...

If he doesn't do his job, and that honorably, we will fire him in November.

Character counts, at least with most of us.
