Let's be real here. Things haven't been really changed politics wise on ATS in the last 10 years.... and if anything, compared to Clinton and Obama, Trump's getting it fairly soft on here when it comes to bad threads. He has a large supporter base on here - at least far more in contrast to Clinton and Obama. You see I don't take issue with this fact hence the reason I'm still active on here. In my view it's a given that a forum of the nature of ATS would have a far larger and active right leaning community. It's just the way it is ya know? And I expect far less of a positive audience when it comes to posting anything contrary to what your average Fox News viewer would agree with.
With the above being said, I really find it amusing - the constant whining and complaining about the negative Trump threads on here from many - as if Trump is somehow being targeted unfairly on here? What's more, what really astounds me is this new thing going around on people accusing those critical of Trump of being 'delusional' and 'mentally unstable'. Really? We been sleeping for the prior 8 years I take it?
Let's take a look back at the years preceding Trump on here:
What was the ATS consensus on here about Obama? I mean for starters the most obvious - his birth certificate is fake and there's some conspiracy involving an unspecified amount of people in government and an unspecified period of time covering it up. Heck it's such a popular conspiracy that posts are still going strong to this day!
We pretty agreed by majority that he was responsible for hypnotising the masses into agreeing with him! How about all the suspicious deaths connected to him!? Or how about the fact he was pushing the homosexual agenda on the population? I mean we pretty much formed a consensus that he was likely homosexual himself so I guess that makes sense?
He was also the anti-christ remember? We discussed this over numerous threads and came to the same conclusion, right? We discovered his real name! Barry Soetoro! We concluded as a majority, stars and flags and all, that he was a fraud using a fake name to hide his true identity! Don't forget his fake social security number! Or his missing college records!
This one's a doozy! He even admitted being involved in election fraud! 151 flags!
Oh Hillary. She gets it bad too... I think in some cases worse. Oh her frequent seizures and other health issues. Benghazi was a favorite? We've had a dozen Benghazi investigations that have gone no where but hey, it's still a hit on here. The ATS majority have already concluded their investigation! There's more to come!
Look. I'm fairly certain many of you will argue either these claims were legitimate or you weren't involved in many of them or whatever. The point is, we've had everything under the sun posted about other major politicians on here. Trump isn't the first to get targeted for negative press and he certainly won't be the last. Claiming 'delusion' or whatever only on those criticizing Trump or other conservatives is laughable. This is a conspiracy site - leaning to the right. All sorts of claims and topics will pop up. Most ATSers never show restraint in their criticism of other politicians on here. Trump shouldn't be the exception.
As one great poster stated on here - Some Of You Seem To Think That ATS Should Be A Safe Zone For Trump. It's not and I sure as hell hope it remains that way.
Should this happen, remember, you set the bar here, so threads on the new guy from the left will be particularly graphic and hurtful.

Couldn’t agree more.
Lately the Trump Administration has managed to do some things I believe they deserve to be bashed for.
Chief among them is Sessions’ attack on a legal 10 billion dollar industry. I believe Sessions should be fired, to be followed or preceded by legislation to end prohibition on marijuana.
My button is bigger tweet. Embarrassing.
18 billion dollar wall that wouldn’t be necessary if we hadn’t spent the last several decades building an even bigger wall with tax money, bodies, and the personal freedom of many via the global war on drugs.
There are perfectly legitimate reasons to challenge the positions the President and his cabinet hold.

It cannot be disputed that Trump has received far more negative coverage than other Presidents. Even NPR admits this is true.
Lots of the negative coverage is based on complete and total lies like Brian Ross's report, for which he was suspended and has yet to return to work.
Or it is just pure Trump Derangement syndrome, for example CNN's report on Trump eating two scoops of ice cream or his newsworthy habit of drinking 12 Diet Cokes per day. You know they really have nothing to complain about when they resort to ice cream and diet sodas, and they certainly can't bring themselves to admit the economy is booming under Trump even for real people like myself, who are not at all "big business."
No one is saying Trump is off limits, just stick to the facts instead of blasting everyone with fake BS about Trump and his "Gorilla Channel." I'm happy to be critical about something with a real basis, like Sessions targeting pot states, since as a right leaning person I am fully supportive of states rights.

Keep in mind Wolff book is backed up with hours and hours of tapes with interviews of the WH staff and Trumps inner circle.
This is just the beginning.....

There is a huge difference this time around that can't be quite compared like they used to be.

That statement I agree with.
Although, I doubt for the same reasons.
I don't have to respect anyone bub, I didn't like the last retard and I certainly don't like your Cheeto Jesus.
