    I did not say I don’t understand his supporters, many of those who voted for him had valid reasons for feeling totally left out of the political process.
    I was drawing attention to the blind support given him by most Republican members of Congress. They should know better. At least a few are now starting to raise their objections in public, more will at Trumps mental instability worsens.

    Politicians don't matter. They live for votes, so if getting votes means wearing a MAGA hat and rolling up their sleeves to heft a ceremonial bale of hay so the ceremonial cow can ceremoniously eat in front of the cameras, then that's what they do.

    There are many reasons not to like Trump, but who else is there? It's a case of walking into a bar full of ugly women and trying to figure out which one is the least ugly of the lot.

    We must all try to understand. Trump is a sick man. Mental illness is just as serious as a physical illness.

    He slowed down a vid to make Nancy slur more than usual? I got to see it! Sounds like a hilarious thing to do!

    That is a common excuse for Trump's fans. Another one is, he was being sarcastic. Still another is, he didn't really mean that; he meant this.

    “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,” Trump said, referring to emails Mrs. Clinton had deleted from the private account she had used when she was secretary of state. “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.”

    "WikiLeaks, I love WikiLeaks." Julian Assange, the WikiLeaks leader, has been indicted on 17 counts of violating the Espionage Act.

    “I was really being tough - and so was he. And we would go back and forth,” Trump told a rally in West Virginia. “And then we fell in love, okay? No, really - he wrote me beautiful letters, and they’re great letters.”

    "I have great confidence in my intelligence people, but I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today," Trump said during a joint news conference in Helsinki.

    Trump proclaimed himself to be an "extremely stable genius."

    I agree with you. Trump is a very funny guy. He should never be taken seriously.

    What's wrong with publishing those 30k emails?

    I've read some of her emails on wikileaks. She spells like a teenage hoodrat and its amazing she made it past being employed as a walmart greeter.

    You seem to take President Trump very seriously Sandy. Tell who you support as a replacement.

    L-O-L!! It's Trump who's thin skin. The whiny little boy can't take any criticism at all without taking to TWITter to cry.

    You mentioned them being behind a raving lunatic. I assumed you meant Pelosi.

    I think that it is a lie, that Trump supporters were left out of the political process. They are the same people that voted for Bush. Mostly they were upset that gays could marry, Obama's father was born in the wrong country, and there was the possibility of "dreamers" becoming citizens.

    Trump is not mentally unstable, he is just corrupt. Corrupt as hell. Excusing his bad behavior as a mental problem, doesn't address the underlying criminality.

    Hopefully both parties will nominate less ugly candidates next time around. We can do better than last time. I thought that McCain vs Obama and Obama vs Romney were pretty good choices. Same with Clinton vs Bob Dole. It’s still early enough in the election cycle for both parties or even a charismatic Independent to put great candidates out there.

    I’m not excusing Trumps behavior. As a psychologist once commented to me about a difficult student “Sometimes you just have to diagnose ‘More bad than mad”
    Some of what you say about Trump voters may be true but you’re forgetting the suffering of all those in the mid-west rust belt who were ignored for far too long. And ignored by both Republicans and Democrats. As to Trump’s underlying criminality it’s more serious than that. Anyone as emitionally immature and tantrum prone as Trump should never be given the codes for the RED BUTTON. We can only hope somebody in the military had given him the wrong codes. I’m not optimistic though as the military in the US have a peculiar view of the Executive branch as almost Godlike or royal.

    Mike Pence is useless.. Ask Indiana

    It's pretty obvious to me we are in section four territory

    basically I feel he quit his job 2 days ago when he said he's not going to do anything until the witch Hunt is over

    Guess what the witch-hunt will never be over never

    It is going to be in books for hundreds of years

    Whichever way it goes

    they had no choice but to show it, the President retweeted it

    gotta love the right, Trump says something false, the media reports it and they attack the media for showing fake news

    In Australia we’d answer that with ‘A drover’s dog’ look it up.

    What's more- it's accurate in it's message that she is grasping for straws these days. Not due to Trump, but to the wackos who are part of her own party.

    Of course the title of this thread is a bald faced lie. The president had nothing to do with it.
