    Name something that doesn't include the economy built on prior progress and a massively debt creating tax cut.

    Enough said. Just confirms what we already knew.

    There have numerous lists in the past. It will just start another useless argument. I have neither the time nor the interest.

    I have a Trump supporter in my family. He supports economic policies but will join in if anyone berates Trump, the man. He will be the first to say that the man is propagating hatred and won't vote for him again - for that reason. Economics are one thing, but hatred is another.

    I support anyone's right to support and vote for Trump - it is their vote and can do with it what they wish. But I simply cannot understand blind faith in him as a 'leader'.

    Have you asked him if he realizes the increase to the national debt and the damage to the environment Don is responsible for will do long term harm to the country (and the world)? Or is he a climate change denier?

    LOL. MSNBC? The reason it won't be destroyed is that we dictated the terms. Trump is merely the first Republican to come along who doesn't believe Democrats will ever like him no matter how far he goes to work with them. To many left wingers, half way is surrender. Trump fires back. Trumpery is respecting leaders with chutzpah.

    Boycotting businesses is a leftist thing, liberals are always calling for boycotting any business that has commercials on the Rush Limbaugh's radio show or advertise on Fox News.

    Which cinfirms that NAZI's were left wing liberals but decided to call themselves leftist Nationalist Socialist.

    This is a sobering time for Americans. Thinking that overt racism was something that primarily occurred in the 1960s. Republicans seem prone to clinging to the worse bigotries of the past as I have experienced with homophobia. Some are calling it the last gasp of racist hate.

    Not surprised you missed the point. Trump backed off to let Omar steep in the news coming out about her past.

    Don't be naive -- the dems nor repubs have been interested in controlling our border for the past 30 years. "Improved border security" are hollow words. "A useless wall" are the words of those who want an open border. After years of hearing such jive talk from the politicians Trump has now moved the needle. He is looking out for the USA and most of our citizens see a leader who can get some action rather than years of just pretty talk and finger pointing.

    You already made that fallacious argument. It didn't work the first, it still isn't working.

    What you are really saying is tantamount to what Trump has said to the "Squad." Either you agree with me or you should leave the country. It's a sign he (and you) are fearful of a reasoned, fact based debate.

    The lesson is: don’t criticize a female Muslim, no matter how many laws she’s broken and no matter how many times she declares America “evil”.

    Yeah, but an increasing number of Republicans disagree with you. How do you reconcile this?

    Still waiting for the list of things you like.......absent the economy.......stimulated by the budget busting tax cut.

    The lesson is: don't suggest a US citizen and duly elected congresswomen should leave the country because she disagrees with your policies........no matter what her religion happens to be.

    Don is playing you folks like a drum but you can't see it.

    I want people who hate the U.S. out of public office.

    We have enough external problems without being sabotaged from within.

    Why would I care what George Conway thinks? Fact remains that Woodrow Wilson was the most racist president in the history of the country, bar none. Accusations of Trump's racism derive from the blow by blow failure of the Democrats' coup attempts. The current din is about the SDNY dropping the investigation of Trump's non-disclosure agreements ,,, and some Republicans being wimps. There is no evidence that the President who created the best employment situation for blacks in history is a racist.

    Just to make sure you understand what I think.

    You want to argue endlessly about subjects which we have already argued endlessly. Arguments which ended with us thinking we were right and you thinking you were right. That is the definition of insanity. Performing the same act over and over and expecting a different outcome.
