    Absolutely; I don't think anyone questions this.

    That's not what the narrative was in the 90's. He was a socialist trying to push socialized medicine on us.
    My point is like in my post to shane #98 in this thread. Both sides do good and bad things. We as citizens should recognize the good, no matter who does it, and ask for accountability for the bad, no matter who does it. For the most part, that's not what I see by a lot of posters on this site. They see all the good is Trumps policy/actions; all the bad is a conspiracy of fake news, democrat's, Republicans with free will (a/k/a RINOs), and of course the shadow government that's like FEMA in the X-File series - not the FEMA of Katrina. That's not healthy for the country.

    Well if you want to count the pussy ass republicans that keep bailing out pelosi and her bullshit then yeah I guess you can hang some of it on the GOP. The point is all and I mean all of this reckless spending and programs and big gov comes from one side of the isle. Myself and @LSUpride123 are on record calling out the GOP because they are spineless. They will probably gain all of the power again next year and they will do a grand total of nothing. They never do. So many opportunities to repeal all of this crap the dems get us into and they cave under the pressure every damn time.

    I don’t care about a narrative. I care about facts.

    What are Trumps bad policies that caused you harm?

    I don't know mc, I think a lot of people question it. And its usually the most active groups. Compromise is a dirty word these days not only between Ds & Rs but within sub groups within the parties. Compromise is equated with weakness; stonewall to the point of stupidity is praised; and delaying doing anything for two years to see if we can get the house is considered a real strategy.

    Don't you see that is what we want? I was having this conversation with a buddy yesterday, there is no longer any civil discourse because if you don't agree with the left you must be a racist or a fascist or some other name. Only dupes like Winston look out their window and says everything is fine we just have to wait for Ronnie to come back. Well its NOT fine and he aint coming back and if we don't pay the fuck attention to what is going on then we won't have it for much longer. Take a look at the numbers on mush mouth. If you or that idiot winston still think he got 81 m votes there is no helping either of you, you'll just get eaten by the machine because I have no time to save you.

    I think you are falling into the Winston trap of having unrealistic ideals.

    Human nature wins out in the end.

    Go read the post I quoted and figure it out. You were passing some strawman blame around on people defending Trump here.

    We defend Trumps policies and get called being conned.

    How else do we make it clear?
