    I desperately hope this is an alt fact, but I am very sure Trump actually wrote that crap.

    Of course, for I am a true-blue American, a patriot, an Army veteran of many years, a well-education modern professional who understands that things change. I will even await with real interest to see what is going on, if anything.

    What do you mean "what is going on"? Trump wins and make an ass of himself for another 48 months. Unless he resigns for health reasons or dies due to the same.

    Oh, I mean about life and death. We die once, we live every day. I am curiously intense about the other side of the veil.

    I've always said members of Congress should get two terms - one in office and one in jail.

    You just described everything that's wrong with the election process of an American President; Not enough candidates to choose from. I mean, why should only 2 make it to the final round?
    Tough choice if you have to pick between someone who you think is repulsive and someone that you... well, for sure don't want.

    Frankly, I thinks it's a miracle American democracy has survived thus far, mostly because of Presidents who were, in essence, obedient to the people and did not run for office to solely abuse it's awesome powers.
    As, apparently, they can as shown by Trump.
    That might be, in the end, Trumps true legacy; he exposed the weakness of the Presidential office by it's all to easy abuse of powers.

    I mean why, in Gods-name, should an American President have ANY say in what judge will represent the Supreme Court?

    Observe how easy it is for corrupt Trump to manipulate public opinion regarding Brett Kavanaugh.
    Someone HE picked as nominee and now desperately needs on his voting-side when he challenges his lost 2020 election in court. (As I think Trump will.)

    “Brett Kavanaugh should start suing people for libel, or the Justice Department should come to his rescue,” Trump tweeted.
    (That's called Trump sucking up to the man who he thinks is his buddy when it comes to his loyalty. read; voting-loyalty)

    Separation of powers, as outlined in the Constitution, should prevent abuse of powers.
    But The Corrupt One has wiped his fat ass with it because...well, what rule was gonna stop him?

    So if your only choice of President was between fainting-Hillary and fat and corrupt Trump, then I understand your dilemma.
    My solution would be to PREVENT one political party (be it Dems,, Reps. or who-ever) totally outspending another. (Big money has totally corrupted the American Presidential election process.)

    This way other parties get a chance to participate equally in the electoral process and you are no longer stuck with 2 candidates because the rest could not afford it any more...

    Perhaps then real political choice can come to America.

    And not one dictator.

    Propaganda Alert!
    I don't think most voters support Trump violating the law.

    Who should select judges for the Supreme Court?

    Trump was not a bad choice, he's done a pretty good job of doing what he was expected to do. Especially in the face of the mutiny he's faced and the constant barrage of bullshit investigations for headlines. Maybe his next term won't be so contentious.

    Trump goofed because he did what Bibi wanted, but was it what the Israelis want? From what I read, the Knesset was going to put in some very apartheid laws and the people didn't like it, or rather the Russians didn't like it since they were 40% of the votes.

    But I don't think Trump should be impeached for all those terrible and evil horrors that you posted. He should be hung up by his heels like Mussolini.

    His wife wasn't mocking the refugees, she was showing the reporters she didn't give a damn what they say about her. It just wasn't the right time for her to wear the coat because it was being taken the wrong way.

    "Trump thinks he may spend 14 years office"

    is that what they call prison cells these days, offices with a private desk, sink, bed and toilet

    I think she just wasn't thinking... no one would of done that had they thought about it first

    kinda like Trump inviting the Taliban to America the week of 9-11

    what is sad is that no one around them said anything to them about it, people around the President and his family fear disagreeing with them on anything

    Actually Trump is a workaholic and sleeps very little, so the time he spends on the golf course is miniscule compared to the time he spends in office. As for Obama, I don't recall a day going by that he wasn't on the golf course.

    He was the laziest president we ever had - but the best dancer.


    You show them!

    Now, DO enlighten me as to how you have followed Trump on his day to day business and can PROVE he's a workaholic...







    Oh, sorry, Trump has spent more time on the golf course than Obama...and Trump said he'd be too busy to golf ...so he must not be all that busy ….and would have a heart attack if he even tried to dance...

    Well if the democratic president is as dishonest as trump is, then I don't blame you for working hard to make the democratic president's time in office crippled.

    I won't claim to have the wisdom to solve this problem.
    But, as Trump has clearly proven, it for sure shouldn't be the President, if this President has ulterior motives for nominating a Supreme Court judge in the first place.

    Perhaps there should be a rule that an individual NEEDS to have served a certain time in political office before he/she is allowed to run for President. Just to make sure that this future President is actually motivated to go through the process of becoming one.

    So if Joe/Jane from next door wants to be the next American President, let him/her run the treadmill of political experience before he/she can assume the highest office.
    That should eliminate 50% of all average Joe's and Jane's out there because they can't be bothered to make that sacrifice.

    It for sure would have prevented Trump becoming President, him being the most lazy human who ever lived on this Earth.

    This way we might have a more honest, hardworking President in office, instead of spoiled child.

    It's not acceptable for anyone to be acting this way, never the less a president - but was there a choice? Do you think any decent and respectable person like Rand Paul would have been allowed to become president - and if he did would he have been able to put up with the garbage Trump had to put up if he didn't give the liberals and war mongers what they wanted?

    I think the only person with integrity and has a chance to win in the Democratic Party is Tulsi Gabbard - so where is she? She was loved for being truthful and hated by the power brokers for the same reason. So again I ask, where is she?

    America is a republic but democratically based. That means our electorate is pretty much everyone seen as a full citizen. Most other Republics have a somewhat limited electorate and are actually oligarchies of powerful families, like Venice and Florence in medieval /Renaissance. times. Plato's ideal Republic was rather repressive
