The Political Forum is now just another forum.

I certainly don’t consider my posts opposing the despot in the WH as ranting, any more than you consider yours to be.

But please allow me to retort to your post:

I think the flaw in your argument stems from your lumping together “conservative, pro-America and pro-Trump.”

Those three things are not one in the same and do not describe the millions of loyal patriotic law abiding citizens who identify as conservative who can’t abide the circus in the White House or its erratic policies.

Trump is not an absolute term. Can’t be for or against him because he doesn’t have a solid position on anything. No definable ideology. His loyalty and legislative agenda is a moving target at best and in most cases doesn’t consider you at all,

To say that ALL THINGS pro America are being attacked if not surprised is just bullshit.

Do you really think that if you oppose Trump you’re anti-American?

I’ll hang up and listen. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

All because he said he would put America's interests first and foremost. i recall some guy named Reagan doing that and it worked out pretty good for America.

you should know that Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan was lifted from Reagan's "Let's Make America Great Again" 1980 campaign slogan yeah? i'm sure the liberal press threw shade at Reagan for that but nowhere near to the level they have against Trump.





now for your comment "Do you really think that if you oppose Trump you’re anti-American?"

I'm saying that if you oppose putting America's interests above those of other nations then yes you are anti-American.

so are you?

Actually, Twitler was labeled all of those things he long before he ever decided to run for office.

To address the rhetorical question beneath that in your post, am I anti-American? I resent the accusation.

Do I agree with your idea of patriotism?

Shit no!

I think you’re wrong in painting the entire political landscape with a single broad brush using only black or white paint. If that’s the way you truly view the world, I am not surprised by your anger and frustration.

But lay off the accusations.

anger and frustration? at what? the press being their usual liberal slanted jackasses? well they've been that for a long time. i find it more amusing than anything else. and the Press still doesn't realize their massively negative reporting on Trump, intent on preventing him from winning the Presidency, blew up in their faces like an ACME dynamite kit.

and those dummies are still doing it now. didn't they learn the first time?


oh and on the subject of Patriotism, that term is now a subversive ideology. it's un-American to be patriotic. the very thought of it riles up the Globalists to such a degree they'd make it a thought crime if they could.

Pretty easy to find accounts of Al Sharpton addressing Twitler’s racism, since that’s what you seem most sensitive to.

Here are a couple ... from foreign media no less.

Here’s one from the right leaning Washington Times, hardly a fan of Sharpton.

These are all you get TWK.

Again, I ask you to pull back on your hostility. I have pointed out your broad brush stroke approach to the national debate and it apparently has flipped some kind of switch.

No offense, man. But if you’re going to label people and circumstances as “either or” or “black and white” with terms like EVERYONE and ALL and THEY, then you’re doing yourself and your viewpoint a disservice.

If you’re going to do that, my fellow Patriot, then then remember ALL men are created equal.

Answer to both questions: NEVER

So once again, Hotrod, you’re dead wrong and out of line. The fact that you directed this at me by name turns the discussion into a personal attack.

Was that your intent?
The political forum is about as credible as a trump presidency. Lot of bs name calling and funny as Fck.

Being hostile and disrespectful to your VIEWPOINT is not proscribed in any way here. If you can't tell the difference between attacking your opinion and attacking you personally, then you need to quit posting in this forum.

Hey wakeup - how about a new rule against making frivolous accusations of being harassed here? That way you can issue points to the snowflakes and/or opportunists who don't hesitate to make your job harder!

There's no FACTUAL basis for Trump being labeled a "racist"!

So, actually trying to defend him against a spurious claim is a waste of time, because the people who spuriously label him aren't listening anyway. Just ignore the ranting and continue making America Great Again!

"Sharpton"? Someone actually cited "Sharpton" as an "authority"?
