What brought about 61 million American's to vote and elect a populist.? Look at the link and read the whole article, perhaps you will understand and confirm why you don't understand why the last 40 years of social,global and economic experiments gave rise to a populist. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-11-20/us-election-why-did-61-million-americans-vote-for-trump/8040648 Edited December 15, 2017 by riclag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean that silly thing about her being an undocumented illegal migrant when she came over? That silly thing? The 'silly thing' that Trump is all but having a hernia over in order to build wall and keep all such 'low life' out. Or the 'silly thing' about Melania having an anti cyber bullying platform while her husband continues to be one of the biggest cyber bullies on the planet? ( It seems after Trumps last attack on Senator Gillibrand that Twitter are having to justify just why Trumps account has not been terminated, when had it been anyone else they would be suspended immediately). Yes all those 'silly things'. Actually, the news media has been cordial re; Melania. And they don't mention Barron. Imagine if HRC had won, Fox would be blasting Bill, Chelsae and Sox the cat non-stop, as if they were devils incarnate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And should he 'blame himself' for making people like you support the "man child he 'created' " ? Or is that a decision you yourself take responsibility for? You know supporting a pathological liar, misoginist, war monger , narcissistic, accused sexual abuser and accused rapist of a 13 year old girl? The only thing Trump supporters will ever win is the World Limbo Dancing competition because they constantly live with the bar set lower than any other group in history. Nobody else but Trump supporters could get under a bar set so low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not likely, and I don't think there's ever been a divorce of a prez while he's in the top seat. Still, it's been a crazy 17 months thus far, and crazy crap is happening every month. There's at least one talk show host (Chelsea Handler) who as openly goaded Melania into leaving the Dufus in Chief. BTW, I think Handler's show is great. . . . .

He was elected with a MINORITY of votes. When that happens in American history, the new minority support president always enters with a cloud of doubt over her head, as to the legitimacy of her MANDATE. The way to deal with that politically is to bend over backwards to reach out to those that didn't vote for her and assert that she is indeed president of ALL the people. Of course the clown troll gave a little bit of lip service to that, but in actuality it's become clear that he is ONLY about pleasing his very limited base. Instead of expanding his base, he's SHRUNK it. W. Bush also entered with minority voter support and he had similar political problems. He was never nearly as divisive as the baby man but his legitimacy was also in doubt. He "solved" the problem because of 9 / 11 and became a WAR president. Anyway, there it is.

This clown has done nothing to earn any respect from anyone, other than corporations, lobbyists, xenophobes, and racists. He is a circus huckster.

spidermike007 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Gorgeous editorial. They said what needed to be said, about the deflector in chief. And this one really takes the cake- Nearly 60 congresswomen have urged Congress to investigate claims against Mr Trump of sexual harassment and groping. Mr Trump said this week Democrats were seeking to capitalise on "the false accusations and fabricated stories of women who I don't know and/or have never met. FAKE NEWS!" Funny. You met them. They met you, when you were reaching your hand up their skirts, in an attempt to fondle them, or stick your tongue down their throats. Remember, it was you who said it. You said when you saw a beautiful woman, you could not help it. You had to try to kiss her. And you said that you could "grab them by the pussy", since you were famous. You said you could do anything. Remember, Don? It was caught on tape. You cannot dismiss this one. It is not going to go away. And you dared to criticize Franken for posing with his hands in front of a woman's breasts? Did he even touch her? If the people only knew the extent of it. I am sure he was involved in many orgies with underage women, during his 21 trips to Jeffrey Epstein's private island, nicknamed Orgy Island. That man was famous for having underage girls both on his plane, and at the mansion on the island. There is virtually no doubt, that the president of the US, is a serial statutory rapist. And a serial sexual assaulter. No doubt. Anyone who knows about his past, simply has to come to this probable conclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people don't like Trump. Lots of people didn't like Obama. They come from all sides of the political spectrum. Not just the far left or far right. An attempt to invalidate the election with accusations of Russian Collusion? That's been proven. You need better news sources. Nobody is denying Russia tried to influence the elections. They are doing the same thing all over the world. Read the proper news and you'll find this out. Sexual impropriety? If Franken resigns because of his allegations, then Trump should do the same. It's only fair. Trump is on the path for death of democracy. Research that candidate for federal judge. Stunning. And a path for death of democracy.
