    You encapsulated the core reason why I have always been opposed to Trump.

    Donald Trump does not have a set of values. He cannot be a public servant, and he does not care one bit about his country. I have often said that he is unfit by virtue of character, integrity, intellgence or moral compass to hold any position of public trust.

    Really like this post. Very well said. The left just does not get it, or should I say that they did get it, but to protect or push their agenda they needed Hillary to be elected.

    You say 'another' win for trump. He has proven to be nothing but a looser since taking office. The only thing left is for the fat lady to sing.

    So, you chose a self proclaimed billionaire to represent your interests??????

    Donald Trump was never about you.

    I have always marvalled at the posts from far right wingers about "special interests". Yet you never hear even one of these people condemn Wall Street, big oil, the cable internet monopolies or any other really powerful special interests. In fact, as often as not, they make excuses for them, and cling to the idea that if they give the rich what they want, the benefits will "trickle down". Forty years of trickle down tax policy lends the lie to that notion.

    Trump is an outsized example of the politics of the GOP over the last three decades. Dog whistle to the prejedices and fear of the hinterland, but take care of Wall Street.

    It is false. But it does appeal to you.

    Donald Trump is the most morally bankrupt public figure in recent American history. There is no evidence to support the right wing's false claims about Hillary selling influence.

    But Trump does it right in the open, and the people who insist that Hillary break their necks looking the other way.

    Bannon's departure suggest that Robert Mercer is giving up on Trump and taking his uber isolationist ugly American agenda out of the White House.

    I expect to see Kelly Anne Conway leave within days, if not weeks.

    Ironic that you say there is too much gov't. and when they do work they should work for the country. When, if you know anything about the manipulation over the past 40 years, you would know, the special interest groups and the FILTHY rich are all they work for. I guess one of your next posts will be about the poor wanting free healthcare. That is you being manipulated by the rich. What you should be screaming for is HUGE tax cuts on the rich. You will have to educate yourself and look at history to know why. Trump is NOT Anti special interest, or anti rich, he is anti poor, anti working man. So was hillary, so dont think I back her either. Please dont write, well, you have to vote for someone... Trump told you all that you wanted to hear and YOU and YOUR friends bought that bogus bill of goods. Now that he has shown the WORLD what I already knew, that he is a stupid filthy rich tyrant closet racist, you, because he is now the underdog, will protect him.The very thing you bash above Win and protect...
    President after president say the same thing and people act like they have to chose a side. "Well, there is only two and I must vote as my duty to the country" You are sold that too buddy. It is all total BS and the anger, terror is part of what they do... Don't think you have to pick one of these guys. ZYou are just angry and venting...

    Yep......I remember when Obammie tried to 'pull the nation together' by jumping to conclusions on a local incident that had no relevance to most Americans by doubling down on racial identity politics for 'his people'. "If I had a son". I don't recall him apologizing to George Zimmerman or White Americans

    Unfortunately, the masses of Joe and Jane Sixpacks in this country are not deep thinkers, Danny. They're very easily manipulated by right-wing propaganda, and they readily respond to catchy slogans and fake news from slick republican con men like Trump and others...

    He stared down the fat midget in NK and the other guy blinked. He got China on board, while Obama watched them light up the sky with missile tests. He's all but eliminated ISIS from Syria. He's undone Obama's job killing EO's and the economy is booming, he's got his DOJ all over the corrupt Obama/Hillary filth...more. He is killing it.

    I don't recall Barack Obama jumping to conclusion. I see Trump doing it all the time.

    George Zimmerman was not owed an apology. He was not innocent. The cops blew the case, and he skated on a technicality.

    OK Tom, let's try again:

    http://www.lifezette.com/polizette/watchdog-uncovers-new-evidence-quid-pro-quo-hillary-state-dept/

    From the article:

    "As Judicial Watch's press release read, "A number of emails show the free flow of information and requests for favors between Clinton's State Department and the Clinton Foundation."

    and the Judicial Watch conclusion:

    "I'm not sure how much more evidence of pay for play, classified information mishandling, and influence peddling from Clinton's email server one would need to show a serious criminal investigation is required," Judicial Watch President Tom Litton said"

    To not at least acknowledge there is undeniable evidence of Hillary's influence peddling is pure dishonesty. This is outside the realm of left, right or whatever political label of the day you'd like to toss around. Facts are politically agnostic, and this is exhibit #1.

    How you equate anything Trump has done in office to Hillary's complete failure of the public trust as a government servant is mind boggling. And the fact that you deem her behavior as acceptable is even more so. Sorry Tom. The total hypocrisy of your thinking here says it all.

    :roll: Please! Stop insulting people's intelligence.
    North Korea was legitimately capable of dropping a bomb on Guam and threatened to do so. What is the proper response when that happens?

    Had Trump done less he would have been accused by psychopathic political foes of doing nothing while the nation was in
    imminent danger. Stop acting like a chump!

    It's appears that you don't believe in our judicial system. A jury of his peers found Mr. Zimmerman innocent of any wrongdoing in the matter. I don't believe the 'Messiah' had heard 'Neighbor John's' testimony, clearly establishing Saint Trayvon as the aggressor, at the time he made his racially decisive statement

    The fix of Bush and the Obama administration not only fixed the mess of the banks but bailed them out and made the existing big banks stronger to the point they are "two big to fail". Banking regulations imposed on small banks has been so onerous that thousands have closed. So what caused the failure. How about the "we want to make housing affordable for everybody" promoted by the Democrats so life can be fair only to exploited by the sub-prime market. If you haven't looked we are in a overpriced housing bubble right now.

    I'm not a greenie and I do believe in America being energy independent and also embracing renewable alternatives but not at the expense of penalizing oil companies.

    I'm with on the internet monopolies. I believe in freedom of the internet for ideas and monetization.

    The big lie of the left is this idea of "trickle down taxes". The bottom half of the population pays 5% of ALL taxes. The reason the poor don't have money is because the Federal government has it. If the government is charging 35% tax on corporate profits instead of 15% - 20% they are not only stifling business but they are keeping millions of people from having a job. If American companies can be competitive they invest and they hire people. The Democrat would rather have a person on welfare and beholden to their congressman or woman than have them working and being independent of the government.
