    Hello all

    I have become disgusted with the level of ignorance surrounding social media and MSM comment boards, so I typed in "political forum" in the search bar and here I am. I am typically more of an observer rather than a participant, but I think this is primarily because you can't have honest debate with "I know you are, but what am I." I look forward to good discussion on topics of the day.

    I lean to the right on most issues, but not all. The division in this country puts me in the middle simply because I don't see how any sane person can align with the outer fringes of either side.
    To narrow me down a bit more, I would say I don't disagree with most of the POTOS's policy positions, but I do think they should take his twitter account away and maybe give him some Lego to play with. Honesty, no one wants "unfiltered idiot" 24/7. And as far as HC is concerned, who freaking cares! Go away, you lost, get over it.

    Don't throw your back out with the right leaning. May I suggest squats?

    Weird with NASCAR being all left turns, it tends to be a conservative lot.

    But that would leave him at the mercy of the MSM, who will manipulate and pervert what he's saying? I just wish his posts were a bit more polished, but how can you get over anything worthwhile in only 145 (whatever it is) characters? Mebbe when it's doubled he'll be able to be more expansive in articulating what he wants to get across.

    For years I have thought/said "can we not get one candidate who will call out the liberals on their BS". Well, here it is. I also think "more polished" would work, and someone does have to call out the media bias. But is Trump not generating a large amount of lay-ups for them to put a spin on?

    On a different note, are my comments always going to pre-screened by a moderator before posting publicly? Often the conversation is over before I can get a point in.

    Be patient - you'll find it's worth the wait.
