    They aren't smart enough to slink into the shadows. They are rolling in their own ignorance, declaring that they are owning the libs, even as the dumpster fire of their leader's incompetence engulfs them. They have not used up all of their excuses yet for why Trump is failing so badly.

    Meanwhile, Trump has made no significant progress on:

    immigration
    fentanyl
    national debt
    the Ukraine War
    unemployment
    poverty
    education
    global warming / natural disasters
    government spending
    Social Security reform
    International relations
    (I'm sure the full list is much longer.)

    In fact, most of these areas have gotten much worse.

    Add getting rid of inflation on day one, lowering the price of eggs, and drill, baby, drill and this list is perfect.

    So why are you here?

    Why do you start threads?

    Why are you a moderator?

    I suspect you care a lot. You just can't articulate your own ideas on anything so you just post articles and yell TDS while "moderating."

    Not really. Instead they will feign laughter, make suggestions about hysteria and that libs should read a book. Oh, the irony

    The Great Depression was caused by both. In fact, I would argue that the tariffs were a much bigger cause than the stock market crash, which only affected the wealthy and the speculators. Tariffs affected everyone. The stock market kicked off the depression, but the tariffs (and the Dust Bowl issue) made it "Great". The U.S. economy was not nearly as tied to the stock market as it is today.

    Trumpers should not be embarrassed. They should be ashamed. They were taken in by the con-man after falling for his act once and getting little more than useless advice for dealing with a deadly pandemic. Now they have fallen for it again, and the economy is in the crapper. They have been stripped naked by Trump, tarred and feathered, and are left with no sense of self. All they have left is the ability to worship their orange god and defend him from all accusations of his criminally incompetent actions.

    What a bunch of shit that just dribbled out of your mouth. Nobody who voted for Trump feels ashamed or embarrassed and they have no reason to. Our great President is doing everything he promised, and I love it. The left should be embarrassed by all their ignorant and hateful comments. What makes me happy is that you losers will have over 3 years to live with Trump. Just read your dumb ass comments, you and a few other need to be baker acted

    Rather than engage with the mentally ill, sometimes it's better to just sit back and enjoy the show

    That's part of the problem.

    Come on, guys. The blanket “your side sucks …” is getting ridiculous. Well, even more ridiculous than usual.
    There really are actual issues to discuss here.

    But most of the issues presented include inflammatory language so actual discussion is a waste of time

    Yeah, I know it’s always tempting to fire back. But Maybe you can help set an example …

    I do by just ignoring. And I’m not the only one. I assume there are many which is why someone found the need to create this thread in the first place.

    I hadn't realized how opposed to, and victimized by, inflammatory language you are. It sounds like a real tough position, and I empathize greatly. Nobody should have to suffer like you have.


    Also;
    - They're eating the dogs.
    - Illegal immigrants are rapists and criminals.
    - Democrats are the scum of the earth.
    - Media are the enemy of the people.


    I could usually go on for hours with similar comments. But right now I'm simply overwhelmed by your unfair plight.

    Say, you'd never like, vote for anything like that, and foist it onto our nation or anything? Would you?

    I agree and can be guilty myself.

    These are challenging times in that many people across the spectrum feel that their country is in an existential crisis caused by other citizens.

    Emotions are to be expected. Inflammatory language is unfortunately likely to follow. But reason should not be forgotten.

    I wish many of the left leaning posters here would put down their flamethrowers. Same for some on the right. It will never bring people to open their minds to alternative viewpoints.
