Lainey, I wouldn't expect you to understand but I'll try. When Bush was President, I disagreed with some of his policies but respected the fact that he was basically honest and had the best interest of the country in mind.
When Reagan was President, I also disagreed with policies but respected that he had the best interest of the country in mind.
Now Trump is President and it's not about his policies. I still disagree with some of them and I actually do agree with others but my real problem with Trump is that by his actions and his words he's shown that he doesn't have the best interest of this country in mind.
He's sided with despots and dictators and publicly defends Putin and Kim, taking the side of these despots and disrespecting our own intelligence agencies.
Now he wants to pardon war criminals, who were turned in by their own men for the atrocious crimes they committed..\
He's turned the Presidency into a cash cow in violation of the Constitution and defies legally issued subpoenas to prevent his misfeasance and malfeasance from being investigated.
He's appointed an Attorney General who doesn't understand that he's the people's attorney, not the personal attorney of Donald Trump.
So if you, in your conscience, in the privacy of your home can square the fact that you've got a criminal in the Oval Office, but you're okay with it because the economy is doing well then that is a sad fact about you.
BTW, if you can take a moment away from Sean Hannity, you might want to take a look at the economic growth of the United States and look at the graphs that will point out to you that much of the growth was started under the Obama administration.
You might also want to figure out that all those new "tariffs" are actually taxes that he's levying against you, the consumer, or do you really believe that when a company has to pay a tariff, they're not going to charge you for it.
I'd take the time to explain economics to you, but most of your posts seem to be attacking me. I guess I scare you as much as AOC does.
Blessed be.

Little Frankie, EXACTLY how does Trump show that he does not have the best interest of the country in mind. A roaring economy? Bringing jobs back to the US? Lowest black unemployment EVER? Negotiating with world leaders is bad?

Our FBI and DOJ upper echelons are crooked and are being investigated and there will be jail time coming. Many have been fired and demoted.

If you are in negotiations with another country, you don't call them liars and call them names. You give them a way to save face and keep negotiating.

I say Trump has more facts to base his decision to pardon a soldier than you do.

So, because Barr is following he law, in your mind he is the "Presidents personal lawyer"? Show us where Barr did not follow the law.

Tell us how the President has violated the constitution and turned the office into a cash cow? Provide Proof. It is not a crime to ignore a subpoena, ask the democrats, they have ignored many.

I am fine with paying more for an item if it balances the trade and we stop letting China take advantage of us.

Shawn Hannity give opinions, just like Mad Cow. Neither are journalists. However, FOX is the most trusted cable news channel for two year. You might want to change where you get your lies from.

You dems live in fear so therefore you always think everyone is afraid like you are. It is a lie you tell yourself. My post do not attack you, they disagree with your lib fascist socialist dem views. You NEVER provide proof, you give your biased opinion. WAKE UP! AOC scares no one, she is an example of how crazy ad far left the democrats are.

Tell us all how Trump is violating the constitution. We all know that if that were true, dems would be peeing themselves in anticipation of impeachment.

Hey wait. I've got an idea. Why don't you, Louise and the rest of you actually try to take part in an intelligent conversation instead of obsessing about me?
I'd probably disagree with your position but at leaast, it would be closer to having a conversation than a group of schoolyard bullies trying to hurt me.
BTW, you really can't hurt me because I'd actually have to care about you to care what you think.
Just thought a real conversation would be more interesting than your boring bs.

Little Frankie, intelligent conversation with you never works because your end of the conversation deteriorates into lies and hatred. Your mind is closed to any truth.

Lil Francis does calm down when he jams to his Britney Spears collection. He’s got all her music.

It is a stupid question.


Elaine, the point of my question was to provide a forum for different viewpoints to be discussed. It succeeded in that there are a number of differing opinions well expressed. Your posts could never be considered enlightening because all ever do is insult someone like a schoolyard trollop or put an emoji indicating your approval. It’s lame.

While I disagree with BigBear, LWW, and EyeSawYou among others to a lesser extent, they did post reasoned responses. Unlike your posts in which you attempt to cleverly insult someone who argues against trump. All you do is fail, virtually every time... just like now.
You totally missed the point, issued yet another childish insult and look foolish in the process. Nice going.

I wholly disagree with this statement, the first 10 amendments, those you reference as to being passed in 1791 severely limited the federal government's reach by outlining personal freedoms and incorporating individual rights in our country's constitution, very few subsequent amendments broadened federal powers, what has done a great deal of damage to our constitution by broadening the scope of federal power to "meet the needs of our society" is the SCOTUS to which the other two branches have no effective check on the power it exercises over our constitution which by the way was never granted to the courts by our constitution, nowhere in the constitution will you find constitutional authorization of judicial review.

As you well know, SCOTUS cannot write laws and cases they review the situation to ensure compliance the intent of the Constitution. If you, like many others here feel they are an “activist” Court, it is because you and others here disagree with their interpretation.

Damn, comrade punt, I agree with you...SCOTUS cannot write laws.
They can however create precedent, the next best thing.
This is the tool you lefties use.
The tool lefties don’t use is a dictionary of period while interpreting the constitution.
They don’t use it by choice.

Precedent is second to creating law. Rowe vs Wade is precedent, is that the next best thing or all you just telling hypocritical lies.

What I am saying is that you are dishonest. You brought up precedent, not me. You claimed it was the next best thing to law, not me. I just pointed out that you do not believe or follow your own BS. I gave you a case that has decades of precedent and you refuse to honor that precedent. That tells anyone that you do not believe the BS you are spouting.
I do not need to define precedent, it was your word. I just used it to prove your falsehood.
