    Many leftists including Eric Holder wanted to ERADICATE the electoral college after Trump won...so much for “ensuring the integrity of the voting system” lol...

    China is not the problem. They give us cheap things to buy - if it were not for China you'd be ordering your food through some crappy device like a RIM instead of a sleek iPhone. Think about it. And, China has never failed to make a payment to any pact we belong together in. NEVER! Nor do they act like they are most sophisticated than us.

    Think about it. Europeans always think they are better than us. It's time to let them face Mother Russia on their own for once. then let's see how much Germany wants to insult us when Russian tanks are rolling through East Germany. YULE C

    In ascending order (worst to best):

    LBJ -- Expanded the war in Vietnam and created the Great Society failure. Oversaw worst divisiveness in nation since Civil War.
    Carter-- Did almost nothing right but at least didn't get us into war. Hostage crisis. Energy crisis. Did nothing for either.
    Bush Jr. -- Involved us in a war in Iraq that was primarily because his father was threatened. Too involved in mid-east and nation building failures.
    Obama -- Helped create conditions for ISIS creation. Horribly thought out ACA legistlation. Race relations declined. Doubled national debt.
    Ford-- Helped heal the country after Watergate. Nothing much else done.
    Nixon -- Ended involvement in Vietnam war. Signed SALT treaties. Opened doors to China. Got back Vietnam POW's. Watergate ruined it all.
    Bush Sr. -- Finished the work started by Reagan to end Cold War. Berlin wall crumbles. Oversees almost bloodless United Nations liberation of Kuwait.
    Clinton -- Oversaw greatest economic boom of my lifetime. Balanced budget for a short while. No major international gaffes or mistakes.
    Reagan -- Reversed economic "malaise" of Carter era. Rebuilt military. Set in motion end of Cold War with Peace thru strength & talks with Gorbachev

    19% think he is doing the best job in their life.. Learn what were discussing before giving your $.02.

    Trump has tried to do everything he said he would try.
    The Republican base votes on social issues like abortion. Then they don't get anything they want from guys like gwb. Thats the whole thing about this election. People thougbt the social red meat issue voter finsllesd npt gonna vote for the candidate or at least the base maybe fractured

    Trump rounded the social lissue troops
    You may find their politics despicable but Trump still deserves credit fot pulling off what pundits didn't think any Republican.

    So focus on that instead tje KGB or whatever if you don't wanna pose a seco3time to him


    Trump trird to get a wall nan Muslims from traveling here etc. That's what hhis support wants

    Im saying tje Russia alks distorts the idea he won ny getting real votes

    Don't forget that Reagan oversaw the greatest wealth separation from the rich and middle class in American history - exceeding the level before the Great Depression and marks the point in American history when the standard of living stopped rising for most Americans.

    You’re right; one is reality and the other fiction.

    Are you saying the Senate Intelligence Panel headed by Republicans are spewing out Fiction? Because they are the ones saying Russia tried to interfere in our elections.

    The guy who brought us the civil Rights act is the worst president of your life time. Yep sounds about right. By the way Regan tripled the national debt.

    Please tell me who first mentioned Russia in this discussion? I have no interest in injecting that topic here.

    Learn what is being discussed without having context? What does the value 19% mean without comparing it another value like - what was it before? Or how does those numbers stack up against other presidents?

    If you are saying he deserves credit for the good things he has done, doesn't that also mean that he can be criticized for the bad? 19% says the he is doing more BAD than good as even the ones who voted for him, the one whom you mentioned are also part of his constituents, are also dissatisfied with the job he is doing. Meaning, he did not deliver what he promised to majority of the people who voted for him as that 19% is a minority.

    Which is why having any discussion on Trump remains impossible. Can you explain why it induces laughter, when it is a reasonable statement to make, and generally true?

    Therein lies the problem...just as it did for Bush. The left has a long history of claiming wins weren't actually wins...unless of course it is one of their candidates doing the winning. Those are all legitimate.

    It is so funny that you lecture me on learning what the topic is about before adding my 2 cents yet you keep bringing up facts that has no relevance to the topic. Him winning the election has no connection with how people view his ability to perform his job as POTUS.

    If you don't care what it means, why even bother discussing things with other folks as you can twist anything to align to your narrative. Facts be dammed - that makes no sense.

    It is also fact that 46% voted him in. How come only 19% approve of him now? You can't even answer any of these simple questions. I know, you don't care what what it means nor even have the capacity to listen.

    If you think your time in this forum is a waste of YOUR precious time, there is a very simple solution that in which you have 100% control over, DON'T POST. Time saved that you can dedicate more to your maker. Was that difficult?

    Because he is an *******. And on a serious note in order
    Again you dont understand the topic. We arent discussing an approval ratimg.

    19% feel he is the feel he is the best president of their life time. You don't have to feel he is the best to approve of him
    .
    Ill help you through the process of comprhendimg the topic
    No need to thank me
