So he offends your delicate sensitivities? Guess what, mine are offended every time a liberal calls me racist, sexist, xenophobic, etc.

Trump actually has done well given the left's MO du jour is resist. Resist everything he does. And yet, he's credited with passing major tax reform that is gaining popularity daily.

Obama spoke pretty but didn't really accomplish much outside of executive orders and an ACA bill that is wildly unpopular.

I'll take the one who shoots from the hip on his twitter but actually gets shite done Americans like.

I wonder why Gus didn't mention Lauren Gibbs posing with Ivanka and letting Ivanka try on her silver medal?

Didn't wanna get caught up in the race card there, Gus?

Yet, at just about all other levels of government, Dems are at historically low levels of representation. Why do you think that is?

Lest we not forget Trump won when the media did everything it could to get the hag elected.

Keep waiting for muh blue wave this fall...you're going to be sorely disappointed.

Eh....he won by 3.5 points. That's a fairly close election.

He also was the first president in a long long time to do worse in his reelection campaign than in the first campaign.

Tell me there is no "they" when gays vote at about a 95% clip democrat. There may be diversity of looks and interests among the LGBT community, but when it comes to politics, they are all one homogeneous group whose individuals are indistinguishable from each other.

The Trump family is an embarrassment to the "American Spirit" and they openly antagonize everyone but those who worship them on purpose to rally the base. You cant openly troll and then get mad when those you purposely provoke are.... Provoked.


I must have missed where Ivanka provoked anyone or purposely antagonized them...save for daring to think for herself and to be successful. Why don't you fill us in on that, ace?

Again, without detail or basis, those vagaries are 100% applicable to Barack Obama.

In Trump's case however, especially as pertains to business and trade, his command and understanding of material consistently impresses those in meetings with him. He managed passage of major tax reform through a divided Senate in his first 10-11 months.

Tax reform is an achievement which on its singular basis trumps nearly anything Obama accomplished in 8yrs. That is despite the fact Obama owned a filibuster-proof Congress. Given that advantage, Obama could have passed DACA, Taxes, Gun Control, etc. Instead he ruined medicine and gave us obamanomics.

He didn't accomplish much, thank goodness. He was a mess.

No, what's funny is that the mere mention of any of them turns so many folks into Pavlovian barking, drooling dogs. It DOES show how well trained folks like that are, I will admit.

Ot course. I just enjoy giving them the opportunity anyway, just so I can watch them sidestep the chance.

Frankly, besting folks like that intellectually is about as challenging as beating Marlee Matlin at Name That Tune.

I've always suspected that Team USA has a lot of liberals and leftists on it and they've basically confirmed it for me this month.

They've gone out of their way to shite on Ivanka and Mike Pence.

Pretty interesting that you think posting on a forum where the vast majority agrees with your views is how you test your intellect against others.
The reality is that the ability to articulate political opinion even in a challenging setting (which this isn't) would not be a test of intellect. Solve a difficult algorithm on a timer in a contest against other forum participants and ill be impressed.
