He what??? What universe do you live in? He was not 'by and large' right. It was dark times for this country. There are people that notice the similarities and will not allow it again.
So which of his positions do you take issue with?
Almost all.
And, let's face it, Trump has made a lot of moves that an experienced politician would not have made.
very good reasoning actually

I heard speculation from a caller to the radio this morning that it seems as if, with the Democrats in a real shambles, the press has appointed itself the opposition party in the country, and this is the result.

But Trump lies daily and is both partisan and gives cabinet jobs to his friends. he lies often several times in a day. Add Conway and Spicer and it goes beyond the pale.
He wasn't 'hired'. He was elected by people he fooled. But, he CAN be fired.

Oh, you've seen that praise and criticism before (just check back and look at the posts on Obama.) Look at the run-up to this... the election phase. It happened with Clinton... but you just might not have minded it as much.
Yes. We here in ATS (collectively) have put every POTUS nuts through the ringer from the get. But when it cmes to the MSM they tend to bow and scrape to every POTUS (pre-Trump). When the RULING ESTABLISHMENT'S media propaganda machine (ABC NBC CNN CBS NYT LAT WaPo) all come out guns blazing against a person you know whose side they're on (NOT yours or mine).
The man cant use the bathroom without the media (independent and MSM) reporting on it.

Bannon pretty much called the press an enemy of the state. Then Ms. Kellyanne tried to pretty all that up for us as if we weren't smart enough to understand what he meant. Treating your constituents and the press with contempt seems to be Plan A

Have you considered the history of the "news" in their complicity in American Imperialism running roughshod over the planet?...
You've been around long enough to know better than all this partisan posturing, as if its actually real. It blows my mind to see veterans around here acting like all the BS on the hypnotoob isn't a long running fantasy fiction picture show. Millions dying across the planet, tens of millions lives DESTROYED, and now liberal posturing has people being beaten and MURDERED here on our streets, and you guys just wont let up (as if Billary would have been better and more just HA).

Take the immigration, or rather the OPEN BORDER issue. I argue that 'the whole' reason it was left that way (initially anyways), why no matter who was "in charge", where despite everybody agreeing it needed serious effort, even in the face of "terrorists walking over it with suitcase nukes" (post-911) it just stayed the same. What I've come to believe is to maintain the War On Drugs Model, it needs to be open the way it has been. Gotta keep them drugs rolling in every which way AND those 'undocumented gang bangers' (not to imply that all illegal immigrants are gangbangers) to push the stuff, to keep them militarized cops goosestepping, keep them jails full, the judges/lawyers etc etc etc etc. Regardless of lip service, neither has REALLY tried ANYTHING to fix the 'wall' or the WOD. DNC can speak against the WOD, here and there, as long as they keep it open then we still "need" a WOD. GOP can talk about the wall, here and there, as long as still support the WOD then we still "need" the WOD. This kind of effect across essentially every sphere of our society / system related to all of this.

So he is going to help us by polluting our land, firing thousands of government workers by cutting public spending, he might possibly kill thousands of innocent people by cutting public spending, and imo the worst thing he wants to do is pull public school funding. Making it impossible for many to afford a decent education thus dumbing down our society even further. That's just the beginning of what getting rid of the left will do for America
That is all ok though right? Cause I am just a brainwashed tool right? Well you at the very least you have to have a brain to be brain washed. So that must be why trump supporters managed to avoid it.
