Very simply, why I cannot stand Donald Trump

[edward37]

Free press doesn't mean lying press. It doesn't mean a press that makes up fake news because they hate the president. The concept of a free press meant that the press was free to call out the president and gov't in general on their behavior. THEIR ACTUAL behavior.

Trump didn't do anything but enforce the immigration law he was given.

Trump's tax cuts gave so many people money back and put so many people to work we're now at record low unemployment levels. Minorities are benefiting the most.

Yea, he's not the most professional acting president we ever had. But I'd rather an unprofessional that puts people to work than a politician that doesn't.

Get something straight dummy Only 2% of tax cut money went to middle class and 98% went to corporations stock buy backs etc etc you morons kiss trumps ass for that??

Do you see Trump's lack of morality as a beneficial part of our culture today?

You are the only one who claims he lacks morality in this conversation, I see trump as part of our left wing culture, to which there is no benefit at all, see: bill clinton, hillary clinton...
now reagan [whom I respect immensely] and the bushies [not so much] were all moral and all were berated and belittled by the left because they did not approve of the morals...it is the American left [oxymoron I know] who lectured against morality for decades and anyone who supports them has no morals themselves...
...and finally, hillary is the reason trump is president

There is a distinction between holding morality as a virtue and imposing a certain set of morals on the nation.

Trump has had it easier from he press than any politician in history

No other politician would have gotten away with what Trump has

What a fucking liar.

I am not required to listen to any of the crap issued forth from this administration.

And yet, you seem to do just that. Unless you've created your opinion of dislike in a vacuum.

But, you still haven't explained why your opinion is any more valid than mine or anyone else's. What special qualifications do you possess that make your opinion worth considering?

I am not aware that some opinions are blessed by some greater authority and therefore become more valid than others.

So your opinion is no more valid than any stranger on the street. Gotcha.

Thomas Paine was a stranger on the street.

So was Karl Marx, whom you follow.

A strong middle class and Social Security are mutally exclusive. Social Security looted the middle class and made it dependent on government handouts.

You would prefer the elderly and infirmed live in desperate poverty?

The elderly are the wealthies quintile of Americans.

Where?

What part of "Americans" didn't you understand?

I see plenty of Americans who would fare much more poorly without Social Security. In fact, many more than independently wealth senior citizens.

I see a lot of Americans who have paid in 10’s of thousands into SS over their entire lives to not only get the financial windfall of 1200 bucks a month. But all of the government regulations that tell them how old they have to be to get that 1250 and how they can spend it. What a glorious retirement package.

A distinction without a difference...Do you believe the above benefits our culture? [you can just apply your answer to your question about trump]

 

[Missouri_Mike]

If anyone told you at 18 they were going to take 3% of your life earnings and give you 1200 bucks a month if you live long enough. Who the fuck would take that? But it’s just the law so people do it.

His policies and his lack of character. Make no mistake, I am not indicting his supporters. I assume they are all adults and can make up their own minds. But Trump himself is a loathesom person.

He could have devised a policy to control the border without breaking families. But he chose to do just that. Thus he has shown me that he has no empathy for the human race. He uses divisive and intentionally hurtful language to describe these unfortunate people. He has shown a lack of basic respect for his neighbor.

Meanwhile, I, for one, have been taught to treat my neighbor as I would be treated.

Trump decided to cut taxes for those who can afford it while providing no benefit to those who could least afford it. That tired old doctrine of trickle down economics has been roundly disproved as truth.

Trump doesn't just disagree with American institutions but demonizes them. This sets folks up to be cynical at best, dismissive at worst for our most valued institutions such as a free press (not the enemy of the people, but certainly the enemy of tyrants and Authoritarians), our justice system and law enforcement.

I cannot be inspired by someone who comports himself as such a brazen bully. I would opt for inspirational politics, not instigational politics.

I'm sorry, but I was raised as an American and maintain my love for this great country. And I cannot be convinced that selling,out my ordained morality to support such a buffoon.

You can't stand Donald Trump because he is pro-America, and you fucking hate America.

Oh shut up. We like the environment. We like a strong middle class. We like social security and Medicare

A strong middle class and Social Security are mutally exclusive. Social Security looted the middle class and made it dependent on government handouts.

The elderly are the wealthies quintile of Americans.

Because they got pensions and didn’t pay $100k for college

STRONG MIDDLE CLASS?

You fucking work to place all resources in the hands of a 1% elite. The Silicone Valley oligarchs.

You are at war to destroy the middle class, Look at the peoples Republic of California where you have utterly decimated the middle class. 8th most wealthy economy in the world, with 99% of the wealth in the hands of a dozen oligarchs.

So your plan to fix this is to give the rich a huge tax break?

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Vote democrat they will take that nasty tax cut away from you.

I didn’t do very well in the bush era. I bounced around a lot. Not a employees market. I didn’t save shit those eight years. I finally got another good white collar sales job that pays more than most people make and I’m saving a lot because I live modestly and have everything I own paid off. No house payment and every toy I have is paid for. Now I’m going to save save save and even I worry about being able to retire. Most Americans would be fucked without social security and medicare

 

[sealybobo]

Vote democrat they will take that nasty tax cut away from you.

It will be gone before the next general election for broke asses like you

Now that's funny.

Imposing morality means the loss of freedom. Lack of morality means governance without empathy. Morality is a virtue. One each citizen should consider in their daily interactions with others and how they want their government to interact with its citizens.

 

[Ridgerunner]

I would never question you're right to speak. I'm asking you to explain why I should listen.

Undoubtedly the best quote of the day...

You on the left did what from the years 2009-2017? Every criticism of President Obama was a phony scandal or just a FOX News story which was just the lefts way of saying fake news and we had to listen to that despite the fact the previous President got some of the most favorable coverage in history.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

And it is why the left chose to use the term "impose" when dispensing with the morality of the day, there was no law forcing morality on us just Americans shunning those they knew were immoral and the left taking up the cause of the shunned by denouncing their morals...so is your answer a yes or no? is there any benefit to our culture from turning our backs on public morality?...btw, trying to teach morals to those being shunned is where the phrase "don't impose your morality on me" came from.

 

[Zander]

I don't give a fuck about Trump's morals. I need a guy who gets things done.

He's getting it done, and driving the prog/socialist/commies crazy as a bonus.
