No one is leaving our relationship over this.
Correct; they are using it as an opportunity to warn us that they do not approve of the direction our country is going.

Not "liar," delusional. That will ultimately be his defense when he goes down.
Go down in 7 years...lol
We gave Obama 6 years before we finally said WTF you suck... Lets give Trump a couple of years at least, what do you think?

I think we can't afford to take that risk.

I think you are lying to defend a person who lies.
It is justifications like the OP that give Trump supporters a bad name.
Look. I voted for Trump and I have seen plenty of mis-truths come from his lips. Politicians do it no matter which side of the isle.
I would say quit trying to justify Trumps lies but I just don't see that happening for some reason.
Trump falsely claims he broke legislative record

Can you name a couple of things he has done/is doing that leads you to think this?
The economy is booming, I guess that is bad...
You will get more back in your taxes now...bad bad
Companies will be able to grow expand create new jobs... bad bad bad
We are not at war or even look like we are going to war with Russia, China, NK.....bad bad bad bad
We are going back to space....oh really really bad
Give me a few of your baddies...
Do you want Trump impeached because of what you are afraid might happen or something?

I wonder why Trump is so insecure, he feels the need to lie about things that anyone can look up in the public record.

It boils down to globalism/urbanism vs nationalism/ruralism. The US is pretty firmly divided along these lines.
And while everyone wants to blame Obama for the swing into Trump, some of that blame needs to fall on Bush as well. The "right" has been clammoring for someone to address domestic policy for a change. The last president who even tried was Clinton, and it was half assed at best.

You said yourself he reminds you of the snakes in the construction industry you've worked with, add that to his seemingly irrational decision making and dreadful attempts at diplomacy and things do not look good.

It goes a bit beyond a president lying to make himself look good though doesn't it? Hence all the threads and debates.
So I've got to ask what did you expect the last three administrations to do?

"Irrational decision making" can you name some? What country that he went to treated him anything short of a rock star? Can you name a country that speaks ill will of him? Lol even the President of France pushed his way though other leaders to get a photo op with him. His Asian trip was highly successful etc I'm missing the whole "dreadful attempts at diplomacy" part here...
One thing i've learned dealing with bullys and raising kids: if you make an act to placate a lunatic, you just have to keep doing it. Look at the UK and how they handled Hitler. It didn't work out so well to keep trying the route of appeasement.
WHy would anyone expect appeasement to result in a desired outcome in North Korea? Why have the mightiest nation on Earth if you are going to let lunatics force you into appeasement?

Well it's all just opinion until someone goose steps into the Rhineland and I've thought a lot about how much appeasement or dictating to was done before WWII.
I never once said appease North Korea anyways, nobody has. So it's not even a notable point.
