Annual review for me--would I walk across the street to hear any politician speak?

The answer is "NO". Not a single one.

I like Trump's tax cut, SCOTUS nominees sort of and hate his tariffs that thus far have DONE nothing to justify the burdens on Americans to pay them.

I cannot stand to hear Trump speak. Brash New Yorkers have never really been people I am drawn too but Trump's personal attacks and childish attacks on his enemy of the day accomplishes nothing. Why attack dead men? or deride someone's appearance or intelligence? Tit for tat insults are for small people not Presidents of the USA. He has these rallies to keep the base excited but they do not get him one single vote.

I used to respect Scalise but he has proven to me this year he is simply a politician.

None of the democrats are even worthy of mention.

I may be finished even voting. None of them address the issues any more. We stay in perpetual war. We don't even talk about cutting spending or welfare. We let trial lawyers run amok while the Common Wealth countries enjoy efficient, low cost tort systems. We print money like there is no tomorrow. We grow the Ponzi scheme of Social Security every year. These are nation destroying issues and Trump and Pelosi are tweeting insults about each other.

I find myself not watching any politics. Even if Maria Bartiromo, my favorite talking head, ventures too far off into politics I change the channel. I never watch a "news" talk show anymore---not even Kennedy who is my favorite night time host.

I guess I should now move the bar from "would I cross the street" to "would I change the channel to watch them".

No this is absurdity phase---the phase where large groups of idiots are excited about personal insults tweeted by politicians while the important issues of the day are ignored.

It's pretty simple. People are finally happy we have someone fighting back. We aren't going to discard the guy because he is a little brash.

You idiot. The Federal Reserve has cut interest rates three times since this trade war started and has pumped billions into the economy trying to manipulate the value of the dollar and stir inflation.

Currency manipulation is a constant thing with the US federal reserve.

I hate to tell you but many people vote for Trump because of his brashness. How many people have declared they are sick of PC politics? Millions it appears. People eventually get tired of trying to be nice by turning the other cheek. Millions of us have been slapped just once too many. Trump is the end result and that lies with the people who have mistreated the vocally silent for way too long.

fight back for what???

What is his policy to address the issues I mentioned? what is he doing to garner support his policies?

He is running for President 24 hours a day. He not running to fix American problems with conservative initiatives. Hell signed off on a HUGE expansion of the debt ceiling in August without a sintilla of a fight with Pelosi. It hardly made the news.

Just accept the fact that you have non-functioning testicles.

Perhaps you can find a modicum of serenity.

I have been sick of "PC" politics forever. I see NOTHING Trump he is doing to end it.

I voted for him and if I vote again I will probably vote for him because there is simply no democrat with any inclination to accomplish anything I feel is important for the country.

You think that it is cowardice to post things that are negative about Trump and all politicians on the PT??

All that about 75% of the Trumpkins here can manage is one or two syllable personal insults. NONE can articulate the goals of any Trump policy or even describe what may be a Trump policy.

What, exactly, could Trump do to end it?
