Quite frankly, I'm tired of the divisiveness. Reading through this thread makes me pretty damn sad. The name calling and vitriol messages towards one another...sad. I work from home full-time and my wife watches the news 24x7 and I have to sit in my office and listen to all the bullshit. people talking over one another, getting louder and louder, both sides tainting the "truth" to verbally beat messages into viewer's consciousnesses. Tired of it
Tibs, these are the kind of posts that get you in trouble. Almost everyone here sides with our military. Where do you come up with this ****?
While I hear you 100%, it's pretty difficult to feel any unity with people who are so out of their minds with hate for this President that they actually side with a terror state over American servicemen and women etc.
How quickly we turn into snowflakes. Hurt feelings after spending the better part of the past three years relentlessly insulting posters on this board who disagree with you politically.
Triple layered, bank sector-strong glass used to build the glass biodome on this board. You can't break it throwing a brick at it from the inside... so thick, hypocritical and filled with irony.
From the man who will never address the actual, true crimes by his team.
While I hear you 100%, it's pretty difficult to feel any unity with people who are so out of their minds with unbridled love for this President that they actually side with a failed casino tycoon over American servicemen and women.
What team would that be?
You know what drives me nuts, and it seems that I read it somewhere daily? The comments from liberals about this "love" we have for Trump. Or that we act as if he is a God or some ****.
It's not like that at all. Maybe we on the right exaggerate our fondness of the guy simply because those on the left hate him so much. But their reason for hating him is more of a personal thing. They just seem to dislike him because he is arrogant and says mean things.
I believe I can speak for most of us on the right when I say that we don't give a **** about any of that because he is doing a damn fine job.
The man is doing exactly what he said he was going to do and the country is doing very well, so what's the damn problem? You don't have to like his personality to like what he is accomplishing.

Perhaps you missed the post Tibs. I recall you getting your panties tied in a knot, and going to mods because someone said something to the effect of I can only hope this happens to a daughter of yours...something to that effect. You went on and railed about people threatening your family or something.
In this instance, Flog wished me, personally, death.
Even you, if you have a moment of sanity, must agree that wishing death upon a fellow board member, crosses the line.
If you don't agree...hell I won't be surprised.
it's not love, it's desperation. The alternative to Trump is so ******* stupid and corrosive that we MUST support a guy who's an ******* simply because most of his policies are sane and help the country. Pretty simple.
Trump is also the result of decades of voting for useless, spineless alleged conservatives like Romney and Paul Ryan who talk a big game, then get in office and spend most of their time explaining why they can't do what they promised.
A vote for Trump is not about party or even ideology. It's anti-establishment. That's why so many Dems voted for him last time and why even more will do so again.
Just last weekend, I was at party and a guy was trying to talk politics with me. I almost never do that at a party because it doesn't end well. The point is that in the middle of it, some guy buts in and says he voted Hillary last time but now he can't wait to vote Trump because all the Dems are ******* crazy.
Why support Trump? Because here's the alternative
Open borders
reparations
Free healthcare, education, and whatever else for illegals
socialized medicine
higher taxes
more regulations that strangle small businesses
some form of a green new deal
spread of socialism
Violation of 1st amendment with speech codes similar to those on college campuses
Violation of 2nd amendment with gun confiscations like the ones they are planning in Virginia
"Criminal justice reform" which in reality just means not prosecuting crimes or letting people out of jail early
Corruption of the education system
appointing judges who ignore written law and rule based on agenda
virtue signaling
identity politics
victim ideology
I understand that West Virginia doesn’t provide the best academic environment and likely never required you to read Shakespeare, but are you really not familiar with the idiomatic expression “to die a thousand deaths”?
cough***bullshit****coughI've had deep misgivings and suspicions of malfeasance concerning Donald J. Trump going back to the 80's...
Ah Supe, to clarify, I meant my misgivings concerning Trump go back to his behavior and shady business ties (with, gasp, the Russian mob) in the 80's.
And you were OK with Obama during those years, and his activities (in retrospect, of course.), or for that matter, in Hillary and her activities?
