DeanRD, unlike you, the former Presidents are smart. Not to mention far more honest. Especially Carter.
Unlike you, they have apparently read Sun Tzu, and understand it. They know that walking into a trap prepared by your opponent is stupid. You see, they have everything that you lack. Honesty, integrity, and intelligence.
They are also not driven by a pathological hatred of Trump. They may disagree with him, on any number of subjects. But they are smart enough to know that the way to defeat him is in policy instead of rambling diatribes that call him and his supporters idiots. Well OK, you and Hillary may be dumb enough to fall for that, but the rest aren’t. That’s probably why Hillary will never be an Ex President. Or a President for that matter.
The real bone you have stuck in your teeth is that the majority of the people in the majority of the states did not pick who you thought they should. Since you with little evidence, and no supporting history believe yourself to be smart, you think that everyone who disagrees with you must be an idiot. I know that many Liberals are intelligent, and some are even right on a number of issues. However, you do not stand with them in the ranks of those who are by any stretch of the imagination as smart.
Hillary had believed herself to be “smart” when she came down on the unpopular side of many issues. The litmus tests of the radical liberals of which you are an excellent example requires knee jerk responses without any thought to issues or effects of the demanded positions.
Look at North Korea as a great example. The same people who called Trump a fool because he took a hard line against North Korea, were the same ones saying he had screwed it up when he canceled the summit, and then said he was an idiot for agreeing again to meet with North Korea after they blew up the testing facility.
You wild eyed left wing loonies are like the abusive spouses of lore and legend. Nothing the spouse does is good enough for you. If they clean the house and cook a perfect meal, you would still complain and say they were terrible because the portions were too large, or small, on your plate.
That is what happens when you abandon principles for radicalized party identity. If the Republicans were in favor of Legalizing Marijuana, and free medical for poor people, you would come out against it just because the Republicans were for it. If Trump advocated free training in trade schools for people to go out and get high paying skilled labor jobs, you would object to it because Trump is for it.
Yes, you are completely full of shit. You are dishonest, and you would demand the death of anyone who doesn’t speak in party meetings to mouth the proper words of the prophet which would be written in pencil so as to make sure you didn’t have to commit to any belief other than Republicans are awful.
