Knew some about him. Did not like his bragging at the beginning of the campaign. Turned me way off him. But as time went on and I really listened to what he said I liked him more. I think he changed quite a bit over the campaign.

 

Really? This is why I am not bothered by the alleged divide in our country. You and I both know each other and get along great but we see and hear different things. Doesn't make either one of us bad, right or wrong. Just makes us different. At the end of the day we both know the most important thing is our family and we both bust our tails to provide for our families and we both also do right by everyone that we come across on a daily basis. We work hard for all that we have and work hard to succeed in life for those around us. Despite our obvious political differences it won't stop us from being cordial and happy to see one another each time our paths cross. That is why I don't fear a divide in our country. Most folks are exactly like us. We may not agree on much but our respect for one another will always be at the forefront of our encounters and I imagine we treat everyone the same way.

Hear, hear.

 

This whole "more divided than ever/imminent civil war" stuff is just silly.

Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend.....

Hear, hear.

Go away Scrooge. Nobody invited you to our bonding. :lol2:

 

Just kidding Mcpapa. Merry Christmas to you and your family also. All in fun. I mean that.

Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend.....

 

Same to you, Jesse! Merry Christmas to you and yours, homey!!

Why would anyone care if he was racist before he ran for POTUS? He was a try hard with a reality TV show. I've never understood that statement when people say that. "No one cared if Trump was racist until he ran for POTUS." Well no crap. I don't care if an egotistical billionaire is racist but I will care if he decides he wants to be my POTUS. It's only the most prestigious title in the free world.

 

I'm calling baloney. In the PC age we live in racism doesn't get ignored. How long did the NBA owner last?

Not long because he was illegally recorded making racist statements by a vindicative ex girlfriend. I'm sure if there was a recording of Trump we'd have heard it by now. I guess for you it is if you don't see it or hear it then it doesn't exist?

Came with the TV show. "You're fired!!!!"

 

 

I imagine he will use that line in a speech one day if he hasn't already.

 

His MAGA hats are made in China aren't they?

 

I would have assumed Russia!

And I guess for you it's just assume that it does and follow the party line. Sorry, but until a few years ago Trump was an ally of the left, he even got awards from the likes of Jesse Jackson. It wasn't until he had the audacity to cross the left that the charges of racism came out.

Which brings up the question why has he crossed lines? Does anyone recall the 1970 Dustin Hoffman film "Little Big Man"? From what I recall the main character keeps shifting back and forth from being white to Native American whenever it was convenient and for the sake of his life. Donald is neither left or right. Donald is for Donald, and will do or say anything that ultimately helps The Donald. His supporters and anyone else who thinks otherwise have simply been duped.

And that's fine with me. He's not Hillary and that's his number one positive. There are very few people that could have run against Hillary that would have even made me consider voting for her.

Why would anyone want an award from Jesse Jackson? What award does Jesse Jackson have in his name? Seeing as Jesse Jackson is seen as a race baiter doesn't that further prove my point? What do you do to earn an award from Jesse Jackson? Be good at race baiting?

 

And again, Trump has never ran for any political office ever. He is the true definition of an amateur politician as he has been a businessman his whole life. If I decided to run for office don't you think my entire past would get raked through the coals and everything about me called into question. Would the same thing work for me? No one cared about anything PP92 did until he decided to run for POTUS. Would I be able to use the same excuse that no one worried about racially charged things I have said and done until I challenged the right?

He's always been a blowhard.

 

He is currently a blowhard.

 

He will always be a blowhard.

 

I still think he can be contained more than Hillary could have been. Yeah, he's made some world leaders mad but what President hasn't done that?!

 

I worry more about my state and local elected officials.

And for award's sake....Donald Sterling received an award from the NAACP. So uh....yeah.

Other elected officials tick of other nations with policy. PE Trump ticks them off with Tweets. It's unpresidented! (My new favorite word.)
