Maybe I should be posting in the Lets Ask Lexus Thread, but here goes...I'm actually starting to like some things about Trump. As a life long Democrat, albeit a Regan democrat, am I losing my mind?
I mean the guy actually did stop to help some guy getting mugged. Is that right? With all the Fake News perpetrated by Trump and the Ruskies its hard to tell
Hes basically telling the NRA to take a flying fuck, that the rules are changing
Hes actually going to compromise on the DACA
Even though hes an idiot, I think he is tired of America getting fucked on everything
And now this Russian thing wont go away. I'm at a crossroads
I think Pence, ( would never get a second term) would be a colossal fuck up
Should I just let this Russian thing go and jump on the Trump bandwagon and support him ?

Look closer my friend; certain areas of the news has been fake for a long time. Just read it and try to understand. Once in a while I read Time Magazine, even though I know that it is slanted toward the Democrat Party, even though I am a registered Democrat. Search for the truth, not just to support what you current position. Trump is right about the "fake news" that exists. I knew about Time Magazine over 50 years ago when I refused a dirt cheap life long subscription when I graduated from college because it wasn't worth the small expense when it distorts the truth. Some people like it that way.

Hardly an idiot. He is a very intelligent man, whether you agree with him or not. In addition, he has one of the finest education. I wish that my parents could have sent me to the schools he attended. I had to pay for my own, so I studied hard.
America has been getting fucked for a long time, most people just don't take the time to think about how much we have fallen behind the rest of the world because our politicians have given so much away.
Just needed to return to add this. Trump is funny, one of the driest comedians I have ever seen, and he delivers the dry punch line at the most suprising moments. For example, when Jeb Bush was complaining about how Trump had criticized Jeb's parents; the response was "Maybe your mom should run for President" Wow, two licks in one sentence: Jeb's mother was more qualified to be President than Hillary, and Jeb wasn't.
The second example of his humor was when the North Korean President said he had a Necular red button, Trump responded that his red button was bigger. As if to say, stuff it kid, my dick is bigger than yours. Wow, what an insult to an Asian short guy. Give it to him Trump. Some of us got the joke.

Let us look at this closer: you believe that the Russians tried to affect the American election. That has been going on for decades, it just got a lot easier with the advances in the internet. Trump and Hillary were running for office; Hillary fucked up with her internet security (so stupid). Trump did not. He held things fairly tight. Which one showed the better intellegence in dealing with the Russians, and our national security? It wasn't Hillary!
There has been very much intense dislike of Hillary from a long time before her husband became governor of Arkansas. There is a big buildup of expectation from a large number of both women and men that it is now time for a woman to be President. But being a woman, as in and of itself, not a qualification to be President - especially Hillary. From her record, she would not have been considered to be a candidate for President, if she was not a woman.
The thought that she was qualified, in any way, to be President was wrong: That is why Trump won.
