This country deserves much better than Trump

It’s exhausting, I know, but don’t let outrage fatigue numb you to the moral bankruptcy and gross incompetence of the Trump administration. This ugly departure from American norms and values must be opposed with sustained passion — and with the knowledge that things will probably get worse before they get better.

Heaven help us, look where we are. We have a president — commander in chief of the armed forces, ostensibly the leader of the free world — whose every word is suspect. President Trump is an inveterate liar. He dismisses provable facts as “fake news” and invents faux facts of his own that bear no relationship to the truth. He simply cannot be trusted.

We have a president whose North Star is naked self-interest, not the good of the country. Trump cares about his family, his company and little else. He dishonors the high office he holds, then reportedly spends hours each day railing against cable-news coverage that he finds insufficiently respectful. His ego is a kind of psychic black hole that devours all who come into its orbit.

The country needs a bull in the china shop... The federal government and the country or not one in the same.

the last eight years have been a living hell for most conservatives… Fact

WHY though? What was hellish....just that he was a Democrat?

 

[Dale Smith]

No it does not. That is the beauty of a system like ours where we vote those that represent us into office.

We get EXACTLY the officials that we deserve...

...Which is precisely why enfranchisement upon attaining majority is a terrible idea. I don't think the founders thought the polity of the U.S. could have ever devolved to the state of turpitude it has.

So? When did this country devolve into a "state of turpitude" in your opinion? I would be very curious as to how your moral compass actually works. I see you as nothing more than an intellectual lightweight that subscribes to the ideals of fabian socialism and how it's all about the collective where individual rights per the Bill Of Rights is an outdated idea....care to prove me wrong????

Nope, I'll take him. He's got the right priorities. That and he's no politician. Just a guy who knows had to make shit happen, even in spite of the left's full assault. It's just the left's contribution toward a {insert adjective} America.

What would that adjective be? And how is his priorities right?

 

[gtopa1]

I agree with that in principle because those who voted for Trump should not have been so stupid. However we are better than 75,000 ignorant rural whites because Hillary did get the most votes.

Well there was one chap but look what the Establishment did to HIM!!!

Greg

Probably not wise to compare Trump to the great one.

I said the Great One was better. You logic challenged, yes?

Jobs from DAY 1!! Even before he took office he was doing deals. Obama thought about jobs sometime about year 7!!

I fucking pile of dog shit would be better then Donald the dick head trump.

Fuck what the fuck did you idiots do? Jesus.

 

[IM2]

Eugene Robinson and his opinion piece for the CFR mouthpiece Washington Post's commentary page is based on his very liberal and biased views......nothing more or less. I would gladly face off on him in a debate or discussion because he is an intellectual lightweight. He is as transparent as a roll of Saran Wrap. Sadly, those that like Gene have been given a platform to spew their pablum that would never dare to face off someone like me in a public forum where they could be challenged. They are granted a forum where dissenting opinions are not to be given the light of day. I would destroy him with relative ease. I have been "twitter" challenged so many of these hacks ......but yet? They don't have the strength in their convictions to take 15 minutes out of their day to take me on. Debate and simple exchanging of differing views scares the ever loving shit out of them........no strength in their convictions? I will say "yes, most definitely".

What does he have to fear?.....exposure for being a fraud????

You aren't capable of debating me, much less Robinson, I'm sure they get tweets all day long from loons like yourself challenging them and that's why you get no answer. Right now this presidency has been a fail. He has 3.5 more years to change that.

Trump has created no jobs. And of you want to discuss things with me be accurate.

Logic challenged is bringing up Jesus in a discussion about Donald Trump.

 

[Lumpy 1]

I could never vote for a Party that promotes killing cops, riots and disrespect for law & order along with all the other crap I'm 2 represents...

Since we are here talking about what we think people represent,you would rather support the party that beats up people in wheelchairs and wants to cut out healthcare for 20-30 million people so the very rich, which you ain't, get handouts.

Because there is no law and order when the cops are the murderers dumb ass.

You represent the reason it's called the loony left, myopic and ill informed with no hope of redemption..

Agreed

Unfortunately, the other choice was Hillary

She was a far better choice than this fool.

Nope. She sure as hell wasn't.

She's incompetent, careless and stupid and if anyone thinks she gives a shit about anyone but herself then they are tree stump dumb.

Anyone wanting her in the WH is one clueless fool.

And who calls us that? People like you? Ha! Like you matter. You're just another stupid ass poor piece of garbage being played by the rich.

They dangle the carrot of you can get rich like us only if you stop those people and you run to it, but you never get there.

You are the clueless one. And you show it by your support for Trump.

 

[Lumpy 1]

mmm.. I'm2 & Sciencecrocks ..

 

[Theowl32]

The democrats ran that, and they are still wondering how Trump won.

That, is what the OP wanted.

Let me just point out one more time. Dumbest people on earth are American socialists. The OP proves it. The fact that they actually thought, and STILL THINK, that would have been better for America and the world....

 

[Toro]

Democracy is a bitch, isn't it?

Popular vote doesn't put a candidate in the Oval Office.

With nearly 50 years working presidential campaigns, Hillary should have know that.

Yeah right. If Hillary had won like that the election Trump would still be contesting the results and your ass would be supporting it.

Not really

Yes we do.

you do what?

Trump took nearly half the popular votes, 3/5s of the states, and the majority of the electoral vote.

(which is what elects the president)

Trump lost the popular vote because Hilary got more than 50 percent. And again spare me your opinion on the electoral college.

Where did I say he won the popular vote?

Trump took nearly half the popular votes, 3/5s of the states, and the majority of the electoral vote.

I said nearly half of the popular vote.

My opinion?

Not an opinion, unread one.

the Electoral is what puts the president in the WH, not the popular.

FACT not OPINION!

Like I said spare me your opinion on the electoral college. I know what the electoral college does and I also know what voter ID laws did to reduce mostly democratic voters in rust belt states. So just understand that we have a lying sack of shit as president and I believe America deserves better.

I support Trump and you show how clueless you are when you support Clinton.

Hell. I wouldn't trust Hillary to shovel shit out of my horses stall. She's incompetent.
