Hey Drawscore, why don't you bring up a really interesting subject, such as why Trump is being so silent against attacks not only against Muslims but also against Jews?In case you hadn't noticed, Israel has a much better friend in Trump, than it did in Obama. And if you think my post was so uninteresting, why did you even bother reading it, much less reply to it.?As Rachel M pointed out so accurately, I'm not talking about Israel. I'm talking about Jews here in the states whose cemetaries and synagogues are being vandalized. For example:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/anti-semitic ... 48955.htmlHow about Trump wanting to increase US military by record levels while cutting funds to important social services?After Obama gutted the military, getting it back to strength is a necessity. And what social services do you consider important? Hey, I'm all for helping those that need it, but I don't want to be handing out money, services, and food stamps to people who should not be in the country in the first place, nor to those that make no effort to improve themselves, by getting a job, job training, or additional education.Again, as Rachel M pointed out, military spending was never gutted; it merely grew less rapidly than it had under Bush.
Also, I'm not talking about aid for immigrants either. I'm talking about people who get sick or injured or disabled and can't work and can't afford luxuries like a CPAP machine so one can get some sleep and be able to work again. Why'd I pick that particular example? You get three guesses!!!
How about trump rapidly mocking a mockery of his office and of our nation's standing in the rest of the world?In what way?If you can seriously ask that question when there are so many obvious answers, then nothing anyone can say would convince you anyway. But a few quick examples: Bowling Green Massacre (that never happened); Swedish terror incident (that never happened), insulting everyone left, right, and center, placing people into his cabinet who have always opposed the particular office they are now heading (EPA for example), turning science into a political football, and what seems to be a record number of self-contradictions. For example:
http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/ ... ons-213869How about trump supporting the idea of civil forfeiture, wherein cops can take all your money and stuff without a warrant just because they 'suspect' you committed a crime, and never getting that seized property back even if you are never actually charged (let alone convicted) of any crime?I've never been a fan of civil forfeiture. It's basically a license for the authorities to steal. I do know that some time ago, the feds busted up a racket in some obscure speed trap. The cops would seize the vehicle, then tell the victim that if he wanted it back, he'd have to file suit, and give him the card of a local lawyer. The lawyer would win the case, based on a constitutional clause that says no one shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law. The lawyer would collect a fee of one third of the value of the vehicle seized, which he would then split with the cops and the judge. When the feds got done with them, they found out what civil forfeiture was all about. To pay off the people they shafted, their homes, cars, and other property, were all taken and sold at auction, and they wound up serving (I think) ten years under the RICO statute. So why doesn't it bother you that Trump is
all for civil forfeitures? You didn't address that at all.
https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/c ... convictionHow about Trump making it more obvious by the day that he is the most incompetent person to be POTUS, ever? Hell he makes even George Bush Junior look like George Washington!Facts, not opinion, please. Obviously, you did not watch his State of the Union address. Even Democrats were saying that, for the first time, he looked "presidential." (In sharp contrast to the photo/screen shot of Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Keith Ellison, parked in their seats, while everyone around them on the Democrat side of the aisle, was standing and applauding. They looked petty and petulant.)"Facts, not opinions"?! That's a fine statement coming from
you! You virtually
never state facts yourself, and ignore it when others state facts that contradict your belief system. You've done it right here in fact. So kindly don't give me this facts not opinion bull****! Opinions are all you ever have!!!
Why don't you ever bring up these sort of interesting subjects?
Oh, that's right; you don't want the GOP to look bad! I talk about lots of interesting things. Sorry if your opinion is that they are not, but then, opinions are like armpits. Everybody has a couple, and they usually stink. Even mine.I certainly won't argue with that last. But as I said opinions are all you do, and yet you keep spreading the stink quite freely all the same.
See, I don't mind making the Democrats look bad... because they *are* bad! Just not as bad as the GOP... yet.I don't think politicians from either side need our help to look bad. They do a perfectly fine job all be themselves. Some more than others.
All the more reason why I should have been made king. But I better say that softly. I might set someone else off, who let the sarcasm go right over his head. With you, it's hard to tell where sarcasm ends and your sincere beliefs begin. Especially since you keep spouting the same old tired lines/jokes. i sometimes wonder if you are just as big a narcissist as Trump himself is.
Dare to be different... and make a difference.
To boldly go where no one in their right mind has gone before...
