I think a lot of people who voted for Trump believed that his fortune insulated him from the typical corrupting influences of politicians who are constantly pandering to finance their campaigns and that his decades of business experience meant he would appoint good people to do good things. These voters have shown a willingness to cut him a lot of slack but you have to wonder if they won't become increasingly disillusioned by his #ty appointments and the constant chaos of this administration.

The section you leave our is the section that voted against hillary. No matter what he does, how bad he screws up, he is still better than having her elected. His bar upon entering office was the lowest ever; perhaps that is why you see him get cut alot of slack.
This is so sick. You have no clue what a Hillary Presidency would be like.

The only reason we still talk about her is because conservatives such as yourself are obsessed with her and use your fears of the Hillary Clinton bogeyman to justify continuing to support a President who clearly is #ing # up royally.

Yes. For real. I don't recall talking about Bob Dole in 1998 or Al Gore in 2002. I don't recall talking about McCain in 2010 or Romney in 2014. The fact is that the right is OBSESSED with #ting on Hillary. Did she sneeze? Time to post a thread about how this is proof that the liberal elite are corrupting the public!

I don't have to "justify" anything, trump is POTUS until jan 2021.
Is he doing a good job, no I think he is below average.
He is far better than the alternative.

Scott Pruitt came under scrutiny when it was revealed that he'd spent over $105k on first-class flights. The most expensive of Pruitt's travels was a trip to Morocco in December with airfare of $16,217 — but as it turns out, expensive airfare might be the least problematic aspect of the trip.

Of course I understand how the BBS system works. I'm not saying these topics should be banned or anything. I'm saying they are proof that the right can't let it go. It is RARELY a left leaning member who posts a thread about her. Liberals have learned to ignore her; why can't the right?
Why do other people not find the same things as you relevant or important? I do not know. But i think cursing them out is likely not the right way to go.
But if the media didn't print stories on it, we'd likely not discuss it here. So your beef is with them.

This is so sick. You have no clue what a Hillary Presidency would be like. You have your fears told to you by Fox News, but at some point you need to stop employing the sunk cost fallacy, stop comparing the very REAL Trump Presidency to what the Hillary Presidency MIGHT have been and actually admit that Trump is a dud.
