Trump brags and we Republicans admit he brags

Well you won't be voting for Trump I suppose.

 

Despite my IQ of 156, guess I will just let you wander down the road kicking empty beer cans talking to yourself. I am not impressed in other words.

 

Here are some Trump supporters.

 

So no matter what the press tells you, you believe them hook line and sinker plus the bait? !!!!

 

All those who love criminal Mexicans should do them a favor and stock up on Tacos and Burritos. That way they can express their undying love for the rapists and gang bangers.

 

Fantastic comments. Thank you very much for the vast amount of excellent information.

 

I used to be a loyal Democrat up to around 1978 when I woke up. Not to sell out the Democrats but damned near nothing has changed in 60 years. They come up with this trick. They are the racists so they scream racists at republicans trying to divert attention from their own serial racism.

 

WE would not let him run for any office here. Although we have had some real twonks for pollies I assure you our standards are higher than picking an ex reality tv star with a history of fraud

 

1. I agree with your commentary in #1. Just remember it applies to Fox News the same way you say it applies to the more "liberal" press stations.
2. I used the word "discriminating" to suggest seeing the difference between government workers who dedicate their very lives to improving America from those who just work for a paycheck. They are there, & it's awfully unfair to lump them into the same category of losers most conservatives relegate to "government" in general. Where I live, I see Trump supporters flying the American flag as if it represented only their point of view. It doesn't, & shouldn't. The American flag should represent all of us, with all our disparate points of view. That's supposed to be part of what America is "great" for. I'm a liberal Democrat, & I get knots in my gut when I see someone burn the flag too, but I recognize their right to do it. It's just a simple, though negative, way to express an opinion. It harms no one. I don't approve of it, but I do approve of the freedom that permits it. Besides, I've seen very few people burn the flag. It's a rare occurrence.
3. I don't call Trump a racist because I hate Trump. I am not fond of Trump, & even less fond of his policies, but I don't "hate" him. I don't want him as my President any longer than absolutely necessary. I feel he's doing a lot of damage due to pure ineptitude, but even more damage by intent. I think America became "great" when it became the first nation in history to say "all men are created equal," & tie that ideal to the basic philosophy of government. It has been a challenge to widen that statement to include everyone, regardless of race, gender, religion, or marital preference, but America will truly be "great again" when we succeed in doing that.

 

I feel perfectly capable of watching & listening to Trump videos, evaluating his points & actions, & deciding on my own how I feel about them. The news stations provide a service by broadcasting those videos for all of us to watch & evaluate. Their commentary is often helpful in describing connections not always readily apparent, & I appreciate that service to the public. I don't mistrust the press, but I'm careful in selecting those reports I see as accurate, truthful & helpful from those that are not. I do have a personal perspective, & like you or anyone else, I gravitate toward those things that I feel help America &/or the world in general. If you want to fault me for that, feel free. But I would bet you do exactly the same from your point of view.

 

The tired and true method of democrats EVERY TIME they start to lose an argument, is to scream, LOOK OVER THERE A RACIST, A RACIST, and it used to work, the mob would react, but it means nothing anymore.

I am going to rewrite the children's fable The Boy Who Cried Wolf and call it The Lib Who Cried Racist and try to get that in the hand of kids to counter all the propaganda they are subject to in schools.

 

You have an interesting quote at the bottom of your posts. Let's examine that for a moment. Your quote reads:
"The key difference between a Republican vs a Democrat is the Democrat is hell bent to rule us and our lives but Republicans respect your rights so want you free of so many Democrat laws."
Now, let's apply that quote to one issue between Democrats & Republicans & see how it holds up. The issue is abortion. Democrats generally favor the Pro-Choice position; Republicans the misnamed Pro-Life side. Your quote says "the Democrat is hell bent to rule us & our lives." But the Pro-Choice goal is precisely the opposite from your quote. The Pro-Choice side says it's entirely up to you as an individual whether to seek or have an abortion, ever. The Pro-Choice side never tries to force or inflict their views over you, or rule you. That malevolent action comes from the Republican Pro-Life stance, which says you don't have the right to choose, ever, but we Republican lawmakers will choose for you & inflict our choice over you, whether you like it or not. And they are doing that at this very moment, by packing the courts of the nation, & now the Supreme Court of the U.S. with judges & justices who they feel will inflict their conservative, religious views of abortion over all the rest of us--even when the majority of Americans disagree fundamentally with their views. But they don't care about personal freedoms here. They care about power, & using the courts to make the freedom of personal choice something beyond reach, for everyone.

The hypocrisy of your quote is appalling.

 

Pretty sure that was an off the record, bowl me over, joke fest, to see who could come up with the biggest whopper, rather than a brag of fact. However he does brag, boast, puff and exaggerate. But he is not malicious like his political adversaries. As President, his accomplishments on behalf of our nation, people, and the middle east, are astonishing, imo. He more easily has my vote this time around than the first.

 

Of course it applies to Fox. I actually watch more CNN, and ABC than Fox. Generally the only time I actually watch any of the major news media is when its presented here at the forums or when I'm looking for specific info that I've already seen to bring to the forum...and me being lazy will generally only grab the first one that comes up. Though I do prefer to use more liberal sources as its harder to dismiss by liberals. No "eww FAUX NEWS!" or "he/she is a alt right idiot not worth listening to" blah blah blah.

Most conservatives have no problem with the general government worker. They have a problem with government employee's unionizing and having too many government workers...but that has more to do with a bloated government than the workers themselves.

And the reason that most Trump supporters fly the flag isn't to promote a me vs them mentality. Its actually because they want unity under the same flag. They fly it in opposition to those that burn the flag. It's to say "we are American's, and America is a great nation, stop trying to destroy it!" Because that is what they see when they see someone burning the flag. Someone trying to destroy America. And while they may have a Right to burn that flag, it doesn't mean that that act can't be protested against also. Which is the reason for flying the flag.

When Trump says "Make America Great Again" he's actually copying Ronald Reagan. Did you know that? He's talking about economically. And on that front he truly has been trying to make our economy great again. Meaning an economy for American's to prosper. He was doing that until Covid hit and Democrats demanded a shut down of the entire economy by spreading fear. Something Trump tried to avoid by down playing it. We would have a much better economy if Dems hadn't insisted on a complete shut down...well as complete as they could possibly get anyways. Even they knew a complete shutdown would be disastrous. We could have stayed open and practiced social distancing with mask wearing. I think the main reason that so many protested mask use is because of the way that Dems went about it (and the fact that Fauci did not help in saying that masks were not needed in his attempt to make sure doctors and ER people had them for sure). American's don't like being forced. That is a well known fact. Republicans especially due to their mistrust of politicians to begin with. Dems tried to use a hammer when they should have used a carrot.

 

I agree with the above. We do not deny he brags. But don't other politicians brag as well?

 

Very well stated and accurate as to Trump.

 

I have not tried to smear you at any point that I am aware of.
Abortion was not decided by Democrats. It was not decided by Republicans. It is a decision created by the high court.

Pro choice to me is like pro choice on beating children. It is a term of art that is supposed to say, hey I might not want to abort but you sure can abort.

Let me clear more up. Death is waiting all humans. So the penalty to the unborn is not an unnatural penalty so what is it?
Death to the unborn could happen and the public approve.

Rape is a crime. It is worse for the woman to bear the burden of rape than the killing of the unborn. So in that specialized case, as bad as creating death is, at least the justice is for the living victim of the crime.

All Congress ever had to do is create a law to favor abortion. But so far, it has refused. I think the reason is clear. They do not feel the law would stand up.

Abortion approval by the SC was based on privacy. I approve privacy. I do not approve the way women use abortion when they can use birth control.

You cite only one instance and that is supposed to be proof. But for millions of us, we live with Democrats laws and not republicans laws.

Any person can verify my truth. By simply checking the decades of democratic rule over the legislature vs our much smaller time over the same body. When we get the chance, we get fought daily by Democrats. As they did to Amy Barratt.

For the SC, how long has it been since the court was ruled by so called republicans? What decade was that?

 

Dialogue with Xplorer

Rights of the human being.

Rights must be applied in equal portions to all human beings.

If the woman bears my child, why would she have the sole right to an abortion when the child is not only hers?

Suppose she wants to give birth but using my equal rights, I force the abortion to be performed on her since the child is my child?

When a woman says she has rights, she must not cancel the rights of men.

There is a clause in the constitution covering equal rights.

 

If you think "pro-life" is misnamed then you would have to say that "pro-choice" is misnamed also.

I get why you say its misnamed. There are those that are "pro-life" but have no problem with the death sentence or wars.

However "pro-choice" can be considered misnamed also. Because it doesn't give the ZEF a right to choice. Only the woman.

 

How does a ZEF choose?

What rights do you want it to have that don't interfere with the rights of the woman it's in?

 

Because SHE is the pregnant one.

If a fetus says it has rights it must not cancel the rights of the woman it's in.


Women having the right to bodily autonomy does NOT cancel out men's rights...

 

Good post...

 

I had completely forgot all about you and your posting style.


I gave a reasoned comment and of course expected resistance.

I didn't forget your posting style and wasn't disappointed....you didn't address the post

 

He is wrong for this reason. Republicans nor Democrats NEVER crafted the Roe v Wade decision. That was done by men wearing black robes.

Republicans have yet to approach turning the law over. Republicans do want it modified. Even there they seem not to be able to do it.

What Democrat can name one successful republican changing the rule of the court?
