I could gather 400 lawyers to agree that President Trump IS NOT guilty of collusion or obstruction of justice. These liberal journalists are really grasping for straws. Anything and everything to make Trump look bad. Just wait....in another year at this time they will try to shove something else down our throats. Can you imagine what the left wing media will go through when Trump gets a second term..... the party of evil will just go berserk.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/...p-achievements-11-obama-legacy-items-repealedOut of curiosity, would you please tell us what it is about Trump that you like so much that you would allow yourself to post such nebulously vague and unsubstantiated/unsupported claims?
Create another thread about this and be as specific as possible about what you consider to be Trump's attributes and accomplishments that have you so enamored with that man, please.
It would make for a very lively and informative topic of discussion.
Cmon buddy, where are those 400 lawyers you promised? And how come you couldn't find 400 during the Obama admin to take him down?
There are two problems here that I think can't be resolved without a higher level of understanding. One is that Republican Trumpists, where where modern conservatives have gone, are a threat to the nation because they have fallen to the temptation to express their inner viciousness and meanness and to a degree that rational people can easily predict is suicidal. But the other is that they are this way for a reason and it is because, unconsciously they are suffering intolerable pain, that inwardly all the pain they wish to inflict on others they do so because they themselves are actually the ones suffering that pain.
This means, in my opinion, that while on the one hand we can't stand by and allow them to destroy humanity's fragile crawl up from our selfish animal nature into the social, empathetic and loving creatures that evolution has forced on social beings, we can't either fall ourselves into that same vicious intending pit. I don't know what word to use as a proper response but what comes to mind is pathos. It feels like how it must feel putting a beloved horse down that has an irreparable broken leg. The difference is that with conservatives the leg stays broken intentionally, even though it can be fixed, but which won't happen because they don't know they won't because they suffer from so much inner pain.
I'm not sure what point you are trying to make as I have stated many times that the process will require decades of suffering before we can even begin to think about healing. Anything else will be the equivalent of using a bandage to reattach a severed limb. You could snap your fingers and give everyone better healthcare, no more insurance/premiums/copays/deductibles and raise their taxes less than half of what they pay in premiums alone, and 120 million Americans would literally hate your guts for doing it and vote furiously for people who promise to change it back to the good old days of today.That worked really well in 2016.
Last I checked Obamacare is alive and well. No repeal and replace.

I'm not sentencing anyone to anything. I am proposing we give the people what they want. Paradise, free of filthy liberals making them do things the man on the TV told them was anti-American.I am entirely certain that neither you nor anyone else alive today can predict the future decades with sufficient accuracy to justify sentencing millions of people to suffering, indigence, and death in the hopes that someday many years from now they would come around to your side. After all, someone with your ideology was just willing to sentence millions to decades of torment. Why should they come around to your thinking?

You realize the White House generated that list. Then again I'm sure you believe everything Trump tells you.

Looks like he's in the last year of his second term.I do agree that a lot of the essence of Trumpism is the result of people lashing out because they are angry about their loss of status so they want to hurt those who made them feel that way. I also agree that these people are probably internally miserable. Hell, Trump himself appears to be one of the unhappiest people I've ever seen.
The Washington Times. Oh the crazy right wing newspaper that's owned by the extremist right wing Moonie marrying cult?Last I checked Obamacare is alive and well. No repeal and replace.

They blame liberals for not letting them enact their shit policy fast enough. I am proposing we remove that excuse. Of course they will still blame us anyway, the same way they blame Hillary for making them vote for Trump, but who cares?The problem with this theory is that they blame liberals for the effects of their bad policy. When they start to 'choke and die' from their bad policy they are going to blame the liberals even more, at that point it is the liberals that end up dying.
I understand all that and of course I am being quite hyperbolic here. But the flip side of your argument is we are acknowledging that there are +60 million people in our country who are literally going to vote for what is essentially a dictatorship. People always ask, how could a dictatorship happen? People always say, that could never happen today.I think you're mistaking institutional advantages for conservatives for what the people want. After all, the more liberal candidate has gotten the most votes in every presidential election but one for almost the last three decades.
Maybe even more importantly we have a duty to each other as citizens to help those who are less fortunate than us. Even if conservatives were eking out small majorities you're talking about tens or hundreds of millions that never asked for any of this. They deserve better than to have people who will be just fine turn their backs on them in a fit of pique.

So what? The sad truth of the matter is that our president has behaved in a criminal manner with repeated attempts to thwart legitimate DoJ investigations. To say that whatever else he has done offsets that is to assert a cult of personality above the principles of Constitutional Law. We can't have that. It's what destroys Democracy.
Wishing he was happy about not being president anymore?If Trump is unhappy......where does that leave the majority of people who post on this forum?
A lot happier than the wailing and gnashing of teeth that is your typical MAGA forum.If Trump is unhappy......where does that leave the majority of people who post on this forum?
For me this is why you differ with dank. You can credit this possibility whereas his anger is so great he won't a accept any alternative to that they are just motivated by voluntary evil. I don't think he is willing to give them any kind of pass for the fact they were put into a nightmarish sleep.I do agree that a lot of the essence of Trumpism is the result of people lashing out because they are angry about their loss of status so they want to hurt those who made them feel that way.
