They are scrambling to get anyone, please. But there is no answer. They simply played the wrong game, trying to attack his character, then countering it by looking for people with impeccable character. What fools. The Trump supporters don't care about his (obvious) character flaws, the world has serious problems to solve and no time for empty liberal platitudes. Liberalism has steered us too far in the wrong direction and the ship risks going over the edge. Only a fool thinks you can keep going, and come back again. Like with the Rebs in South Park, the Democrats are only fired-up when they've got themselves a belly full of S'mores Schnapps...that is...Trump...and a good witch burning. When faced with actual questions of plans and such for the economy...well....zzzzzzzzzzz...that's boring! Back to Trump bashing...

Rue Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Derangement syndrome is something all politicians carry. It's just in Don Trump's case he can spread it through a pathogen called Trump zombies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got his own plane, you think somebody poor would have their own plane? Nobody ever questioned if Trump is wealthy, the only thing in question was how wealthy. Which is irrelevant. Regardless, he’s never said he’s s devout Christian. I don’t think anyone believes that he is. It’s irrelevant. So is whether he thinks he’s smart. It’s about issues and policy. I think that most Canadians are just jealous of Trump and what he owns. They do not like their own feminist PM and so they do love to enjoy knocking Trump down all the time. Most have no idea and do not know anything about Trump except what they get to read and hear from the fake and lying American and Canadian alt-left MSM. Michael Avenatti was once the darling of the phony left wing media and thought that he would be the one to take on President Trump in the next election and defeat him. Now their hero is going to jail for extortion. Now the media is suddenly all quiet about him. Typical of the MSM in America, they are a bunch of foolish azz holes who know nothing except how to spread bull. Anyway, Trump would have kicked his azz if he had of tried to run for President. Trump is the man, man. America is a lot better off today rather than it was under Obama. Hey, Trump just yesterday attended the Daytona 500 and was greeted well by the hundreds of thousands of car racing fans at the Daytona track. Trump gave a great speech once again. Contrast that to our dear feminist leader who is lucky if he can get enough people to put on the head of a needle at one of his not so important speaking events. Lol.

You just pretend that is happening so when anyone defends Trump you can write them off as just a Trump fan boy so nothing they say will cause you to examine the holes in your critiques. Then you double down on your worst critiques, endlessly parroting obvious Anti-Trump propaganda as if it's some kind of mic drop.

The left are the one's flipping out and empowering the person they claim to hate, when the right flips out they are much less counter-productive than the TDS left. The media being non-stop TDS leftists is plain as day, and they are far more rabid than any Trump supporter I've ever met.

Why defend Trump when you can just accuse his detractors of having a mental illness? It's nothing but a lazy cliche with no real meaning.

Queenmandy85 Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 Everyone seems to be missing an important point. What do the American voters want? From perusing a couple of American political forums, it appears a large segment are worried about gun rights and immigration. Since the voter is always right, it would be wise for a politician to listen to what voters actually want and address their concerns rather than telling them what they should think.

I give the reasons for it being TDS and a terrible criticism, I don't just ignore it, I tear it to shreds and then sprinkle on a little TDS sauce.

If you want to get elected in the US than yes what Trump does, fear monger such issues and present immigrants or illegals as a mortal threat in need of shooting with guns and a President who claims he will deport them all, did work last election.

Fear mongering to me, scapegoating someone to use as a common source of hatred to unify people around you is an old story. Not your choice in the United States...we like fear mongering. From 1964....

Trumps daddy bought him some places in the 80s that he still has, he has never ran a successful business(multiple bankruptcies, lawsuits, etc..) other then playing a business man on a scripted tv show. Again he has never offered evidence of his actual financial situation.

I did continue reading though and after listing his many failures(he bankrupted a casino, a casino) they got to his "successes" witch were mostly buildings bought in the 80s and 90s, again exactly what i said, the one example in the 2000s was most likely during the period when he was just licensing his name(when it meant something) to other developers. His only discernable skill is shameless self promotion, and there's no doubt he is a master self promoter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Obama insisting that Republicans want old people and poor people to starve and die. Regardless, ask Kate Steinle if illegal's are a mortal issue. Oh right, you can't, because she's dead.
