    Pat Buchanan has just joined a long list of supporters conned by the buffoonish pathological liar in the oval office. Seriously, he and the others "didn't see that coming"?..........LOL - it's Trump were talking about for heavens sake.:roflol:

    Here's where the D's & R's really show their differences.

    The Left, usually back their "Guy" 100% without reservation, no matter what.

    The Right fractures like plate glass hitting the pavement, the second they think they've been done "wrong".

    Buchanan, now disabused of trumpery, is nobody's fool. I bet wily ol' Pat knew enough to spike his Kool-Aid® with a hefty dram.

    Um, we are witnessing the opposite of that now.
    In spite of blatant lies, the GOP backs the so-called president.

    Trump is going up against Washington. The MSM, entrenched bureaucracy, lobbyists, legislators, and special interests are ALL against him. They live like parasites off the American taxpayer and Trump has threatened to end the status quo.

    It would be a miracle if he gets to pass 1/3 of his agenda.

    The so called left sure turned on LBJ when he escalated the Vietnam police action into a full blown war. In doing so, they handed the Presidency over to Dick Nixon. So, I guess that blows up your theory about the left backing their guy 100% no matter what.

    I don't know if the American people have that in them. Most are seduced by free goodies from Washington. The natural tendency is to drift towards becoming Greece.

    You're right. I should just believe the real truth ... we have a Cheet-Oh head in the White House.

    That is deep liberal thought.

    Trump was a good start. But totally agree on natural tendency. Americans are cool with free stuff, until they see they have to pay for it...

    Americans know that the corrupt political class and its Congress can choose to stop Trump. The DC establishment and its fan base is almost convinced that Trump will be blamed. They are in for another painful surprise.

    WHAT agenda???
    What he campaigned on, or what he says now, or where he'll be tomorrow?
    Most special interests are having an orgasm with his openness to corruption

    A line so good, and so true, that it should be repeated daily by every American.

    BE CAREFUL!!! That could easily be interpreted as a misogynistic statement. . . . NO WOMAN would want to be compared to Trump.

    AGhhh. You're right. Wrote the comment quickly. My apologies to women everywhere.

    I should have just said "feminine" without specifying a species.

    (I wish we had a much longer editing window).

    I was joking. . . . Knowing your values, liberal women will not take offense, and women who voted for Trump are already desensitized to offensive gender-related remarks.

    Trump got Ivanka some kind of Chinese trademark bull-**** for her crap line of whatever. That is all he set out to do that night over his cake.

    What hard line GOP support he does get, you can tell is offered begrudgingly.

    Were he so well supported, we'd not be awaiting a second swing regarding healthcare.

    BTW, it's not "So-Called" President my friend. Like it or not, he's in.
