    His only success is not screwing up Obama's recovery. And it only cost two trillion dollars in debt.

    There seems to be a lot of “new members” calling for trump tp have absolute rule / institute a dictatorship / have more than two terms (even though he barely won his first one)

    Suspicious...

    Yes, really. Unless you consider less than 80k votes to be a massive victory...

    trump won the 2016 election with fewer than 80,000 votes spread across three states — all three of which he is currently polling at a negative approval rate, two of which are by double digits.

    For me, the one example that always cracks me up about how bad a businessman Trump really is, is that he went bankrupt on a casino....a freaking casino! How does a casino go bankrupt unless it is seriously mismanaged?

    Hell no.

    I voted for Trump in 2016 because I hoped he would destroy our corrupt establishment. I'm voting for him in 2020 because he is destroying our corrupt establishment.

    Setting dictatorial precedent would entrench the establishment so firmly the next time they get one of their own in power that nothing short of a second american civil war could hope uproot it.

    An absolutely terrible ****ing idea.

    Looking for an all powerful leader to protect our rights is no less lazy than progs looking for one to destroy them. Liberty requires constant political vigilance. It always has and it always will.

    'Make Trump a dictator' is the call of the weak, the lazy and ultimately the slave.

    Lots of casinos go bankrupt in Vegas, lots of casinos in Vegas aren’t even turning a profit.

    It's easy to claim stuff without proof.
