    You are missing my point. The Republican's self-fulfilling prophesy skews all polls. If only 14% of Republicans trust the news media that will skew all polls related to the media's and Trump's veracity.

    Really, it is a simple concept. It is not rocket science.

    That's simply because there are no bigger crooks than politicians. This is far more serious, and it isn't fake news. It is the real deal, so listen up.

    Trump fans, you got taken But, let's face it, you got taken in by the best, a quintessential con man. At this point in his administration Trump has the lowest approval rating of any President in American history. Wake up, people. You bet on the wrong horse. Middle class and blue collar workers who voted for him will find that out in about a year.

    Trump is interested in lowering the corporate tax rate. His plan to lower income taxes will benefit the rich, like himself and his family and frriends, far more than the middle class and blue collar worker. Why do you think the stock market is booming? Investors and CEO’s got one of their own in the White House. If you are not the owner or CEO of a large corporation, the stock market is your first clue that something is very wrong.

    To pay for these tax cuts Trump is proposing a 20% tariff on all imported goods. That will result in a 20% price increase on imported goods to the middle class and blue collar consumer. For example, a Ford built in Mexico that costs $20,000 today will cost $4,000 more under Trump’s plan. Percentage-wise, this will have a smaller effect on the rich. That is why a tariff results in a regressive tax.

    A 20% tariff will really hurt the blue collar worker who got suckered into voting for Trump. The protectionist policies Trump says is designed to protect American manufacturing jobs will do the very opposite. A 20% tariff on all imported goods will cause nations to reply in kind. This will result in less exports, thereby hurting American manufacturing.

    Folks, you got taken.

    "Hate" is not an accurate term to describe the feelings of Americans toward Russia. We recognize that the Russian government is our enemy, and for good reason. They launched an invasion of a sovereign country, Ukraine, and annexed part of it, Crimea. They are an ally of our enemy, the Assad government and played a role in the killing of 500,000 Syrians. Russian aircraft helped to destroy Syria's largest city, Aleppo. Russia is the ally and arms supplier of another enemy, Iran. Russia interfered in our elections.

    We recognize all this, but do Americans hate Russia? No, that is not accurate. As our enemy we are wary of Russia.

    No we didn't we were not going to vote for the drunken kleptocrat, with the emails all over, who kept collapsing and falling. What were you guys thinking, even running her?
    Fake news, the same polls said Hillary would win ~340 ECV with coattails that would flip the Senate to Democrat control. Could you be more wrong?
    He doesn't consider us deplorable or irredeemable, In fact, we are his only base, he sells us out, he has nothing. The Drunken Kleptocrat with the Crooked Foundation us in hatred and disdain. I can't believe you even ran that old wreck. What a clunker!
    He wants to lower all taxes and streamline government. We would have never got that out of Jeb! or the old Clunker.
    No it won't. Prices will rise, but so will wages.

    Fake News Nonsense. The Electoral Majority heavily favors Trump and a small group of loudmouths can't stop shrieking over the fat waddling Kleptocrat losing the election.

    When asked if it is possible to "have laws which protect both the rights of people who are transgender and gender fluid and the rights of people to follow their religious beliefs," almost three-quarters (74 percent) of Americans said yes, while only 18 percent said laws must choose to protect the rights of one group over the other.

    See that? Broad agreement.

    80 percent of Americans say doctors or healthcare professionals with a religious objection to sex-change operations should be able to opt out of providing those services.

    Sixty-two percent said employers who object to sex-change operations should be able to opt out of covering these medical procedures.

    A full 56 percent disagreed with the statement, "Someone who is transitioning to become the opposite sex should be legally allowed to use whichever bathroom they want to." Only 38 percent of Americans agreed

    Should transgender people "should be legally allowed to use whichever public or school showers or locker rooms they want to," two-thirds of Americans (66 percent) disagreed, while only roughly a quarter (27 percent) agreed.

    I was referring to the Cold War. I assure you we hated Russians then less intensely than we hate Middle Eastern Muslims now.
    My post was so incredibly dated, so obviously not referencing present US/Russian relations.
    I said Russian hate evaporated after the Belin Wall came down. That wall came down nearly 20 years ago.
    Today Americans won't sympathize in the least wit Muslim countries. We have profoundly rejected any support for Syrian refugees here. We don’t care anymore about them than we do genocide and civil war in African countries.
    We will involve ourselves with Russia because they are a substantial oil producer and distributor.
    Americans today don't hate Russia today. They have oil. We will be anywhere oil production and distribution is plentiful until oil isn't such an important fuel source and economic staple.

    Diseased Refugees Obtaining SSN and Passport Upon Arrival


    The woman’s identity in the following video is kept private due to the damning information she exposes about the hordes of terrorists being flown into America as we speak.
    Refugees are flown in at night and given Social Security Numbers and Passports completely non-vetted or examined by doctors.
    If this lady is a whistleblower, she's got a target on her back. Someone with this kind of information and spreads it, doesn't walk away alive. I'm worried about her safety. Or they will keep her alive to cause more division and chaos.
    She also dispels the propaganda that the invaders are primarily women and children, a tactic to pull on the heartstrings of the American people, stating “The vast majority of ‘refugees’ that we’ve received here in Missouri have been males, between the ages of 15 and upwards towards 40, 45 years old.” Josh Tolley notes the similarity to the situation we seen playing out in Europe.


    She reveals that the invaders are brought in at night, supposedly because the air fare is cheaper, but also because there is “less public at the airport.” In other words, it’s easier for them to hide what they are doing to us. “It’s almost like they’re making money running refugees,” was a comment by the host. Now we have a new political acronym. It's FUNU. "Full Name Unknown".

    They also receive medical care (or they did anyway before the pervert took office). Why?
    Well, because if they are not screened properly or have a malady that has a gestation period that prevented proper epidemiology, they could transmit the disease to others as they innocently cough in line at the movie theater or in line at Jack in the Box. I know you guys don’t care about foreigners but the transmission just may effect someone who was born here.

    In order to push their radical agenda, leftists simply whine and cry about how terrible something is without actually giving any real evidence about why it is terrible, nor even attempting to acknowledge the opposing side and the evidence they have provided.

    Trump has never been charged with any crime, much less convicted. All his so-called evilness only exists in the minds of his haters. Never been more apparent than it is in this OP.

    Look at what has happened in France, Denmark, and other European countries where they have become a substantial proportion of the population. They are demanding their own laws and way of life for the country.

    Even Dearborn, Michigan has become a majority Muslim city with a majority Muslim city council. All of the store front signs are in Arabic and not English. Non-Muslim people are not welcomed and are being forced to leave. They are demanding Sharia Law for the city and the exclusion of all non-Muslims.

    Do we want that for our country?

    Obama divided our country more than it has been divided as far back as I can remember. Trump can only do so much to improve the situation as long as the left is unanimous in it's determination to block him on everything that he tries to do.

    I have never seen the losing political party act like the democrats are liberals are doing this time.

    No its not. Its merely repeating what you're being told to believe... without a single thread of evidence to back up anything.

    'Jealous, petty and greedy' -- guess you can prove those allegations, eh? Heres what his butler of 20 years said about him.

    "The staff at his properties, they love him. The Hispanics especially love him. He is so good to them. He stops and talks to every individual.

    He was really nice and always very generous to people. There were times when he would just randomly come up to you and give you a hundred dollar bill. I saw him do that with laborers who were building a spa once as well."

    And when I was getting some heart work done, he told me not to go back to my apartment. He wanted me to stay at the Mar-a-lago estate and recuperate. While I was recuperating, he had his staff fixing all my air conditioning at my apartment."

    Great,
    What are you talking about? Who are you to speak for every American? Why is it you lefties don't allow a conservative to speak on your campus because you are afraid , you need a safe place . You want to limit my gun rights because guns are scary. Well I'm afraid of terrorists , most terrorists are Muslim. It's not a ban , it is a delay to vet. What are you afraid of ?

    Yeahright. There is one of those characterizations that I can't say is true: "vindictive ethnic cleanser". Other than that, all true. You are offering anecdotes. I speak from months of observation. I don't understand how anyone can defend him.
