If we did ... we.were.wrong! Very wrong ... I am embarrassed to say that I didn't realize it when it was happening.

I will also take the path of one of the others above ... and say could change my mind with the current President: 1. Immediately apologize to all Americans for intentionally trying to tear this country apart. 2. Apologize to women for the rude, sexist, vulgar, etc comments and behavior that he has shown through his life. 3. Apologize for the racist, exclusionary comments that he has made towards minorities and basically all Americans (see #1) 4. Finally realize that he beat Hillary--so quit giving that crap more airtime. Have some class and quit being a sore winner .... you won ... next play. 5. Quit intentionally trying to cover up your relationship with Russia. We know you love Putin ... acknowledge that you owe a ton of money to Russia ... and you are going to work with them. 6. Immediately divest yourself from running your business while you are President. 7. Quit using your properties for government meetings, functions, etc unless they are the cheapest option. 8. Quit pointing out others flaws to hide your own. 9. Apologize for the pathetic comments that you made to get you elected ... we get it ... everyone says nasty things ... but you could turn the tide by focusing on being a little better. 10. Quit taking constant vacations (especially since you have went out of your way to complain about the previous Presidents ... when you are already on path to destroy their total number of vacations). 11. Quit watching Fox News, Morning Joe, etc every morning to see what people are saying about you. If I started every morning out at my job watching TV ... I probably wouldnt have a job. You have a ton of work to do ... freaking do it. 12. Quit marketing yourself as a financial genius. You are not--your businesses have filed Chapter 13 more times than I have posted this morning ... that isn't success. It is failure. Accept it and move on. Part 2 shortly .... I want to make sure that I give everyone a chance to say how wrong the left is!

Nope ... another far right idea ... everyone hates the right .... we never do anything wrong! And for the record ... every President does a bunch of stuff that I disagree with. I will also take this opportunity to say that I was wrong about Bush ... I never thought we would find a President who did less for the average American until the current President. Which opened my mind to the thought that Bush was actually pretty solid ... he definitely got things done ... and most importantly he didn't insult the American people (and I wish I would have realized that when it happened)

If "taking shots" is the same thing as republicans have done with our last President ... then I am fine with that. I have clearly detailed numerous items that are real facts ... but again ... in the mind of the average republican ... those things don't matter. I think if you spend about 3 minutes reading what I have written ... you will realize that, what you call "shots", are what Democrats call real issues. But hey ... when I woke up yesterday, today ... I didn't expect anyone from the right to actually stop and read anything that comes from someone from the left. More "fake news" ... shots, etc. (Which is funny ... by the republicans definition ... it makes me a lot like their President ... you think I would be celebrated for "Speaking My Mind"!!!!)

Wrong again (you are on a roll!). The President ... could immediately take my mind from "complete scum sucking bottom dweller" to "Hey ... I am a democrat I have an open mind" with one quick sentence (or something similar): "I have said some really silly, stupid things that are offensive to a lot of people ... I am sorry". But you see ... the problem is ... he isnt ever going to do that. And knowing that he won't is pretty freaking pathetic. You will notice that that list basically doesn't say anything about his treatment of women ... and the degrading "blood" comments. Yet your answer is still to comment on your opinion on whether I will support this President or not. Would you let this guy talk to your wife ... your daughter ... your niece like that? In the real word ... those comments would have you on your can immediately if not sooner. But for this guy ... you are willing to just brush it off. Seriously ... welcome back to the days where women are treated like the scum of the earth. Welcome back to the days of where it was okay to treat women like they have no rights as human beings. Do you understand have dangerous that is? How demeaning? Apparently not. And I promise you that the women in your life are a ton more offended than they are telling you. But hey ... Donnie does it ... so it must be cool!! And let me say this ... having a President that won the election ... yet continues to hammer on about his beaten opponent (not to mention all of his fanboys) ... sure is starting to sound like sore winners. You won ... have some class and act like it and do something for this country besides tearing it apart. Funny ... with all this left and right talk ... if you go back to Bush the 2nd ... you won't find one post from me ... I thought he did a horrendous job ... but I sat back and took it. Same thing for Obama ... I thought he did a great job ... yet I didn't say a word. But this guy ... he only cares about his arrogant self. He doesnt care about the everyday average American. He can't relate to us nor does he want to relate to us. I have no clue how people can support a "leader" who goes out of his way every morning to offend specific groups of people. How can you guys support that? I am an American just like the rest of you .... I fought, my family, friends and millions of others for the ability to express my opinion ... yet republicans seems to think that they are the only ones who have a valued opinion. Welll ... then again ... not all republicans ... especially since so many have decided that it is time to take a stand and to say in public that what is going on isnt right. Are those people morons as well?

More class from the right ... imagine that.

Exactly .... we have a President that lies to the American people ... possibly got in bed with one of our enemies ... and you are not going to get involved in the thread. What is it going to take for the Right to change their mind about this President? Such a hard question ... so broad. Whatever .... whatever ... whatever. As an American who actually respects others rights ... let me end with this .... I respect your right to disengage from the conversation. Have a great day!

Thats right ... hasn't Donnie himself said that Russia interfered (yeah .. I know .. he has said it did .. .it didn't ... it did ... it didn't ... which in other words ... makes him a liar) ... the "fake news media" ... that Republicans loved to complain directly to when Obama was the President are not telling the truth about the links! Didn't the news about Donald Jr. come from INSIDE the Trump circle? Why don't you prove to me why/how Russia didn't interfere ... because at this point ... it would probably be a lot easier to show.

A Trainwreck? Funny ... I don't remember Democrats saying that after Obama took over from Bush (didn't the housing crisis start on his watch? what about the cost of gas? what about inheriting a war which was started to avenge Daddy's good name and also to line the pockets of his rich buddies in the oil business). The only trainwreck in these parts ... is the current President and his relationship with one of our enemies. I will take Obama, Bush, Reagan and just about anyone over what we have now. You still haven't answered the original question ... which ... as a Democrat ... I respect your right to ignore ... but seriously .. come back with something better than pointing to a President that actually made an effort to help Americans (even though they aren't Americans that the Republican party likes to recognize ... you know .. .the not so rich and the poor).

Easy ... *He doesn't represent the ideas or the best interest of this country. *He has no plan to make things happen (before you blame that on the Democrats---he is the President and it is his job to be savvy enough to unite this country ... which he refuses to do ... matter of fact ... he has waged war on anyone Democrat or Republican, who doesn't agree with his ideas and twitter crap. *He is an arrogant, egotistical rich brat who has marketed himself as some type of tycoon/mogul who is more successful than he really is (which is funny since his businesses are a blueprint on how to manipulate the government into proping up his failed business dealings up through constant use of chapter 13 bankrupcy). *He constantly blames his mistakes on others---WHICH SHOWS NO LEADERSHIP ABILITY WHAT-SO-EVER. *He and the people that he aligns himself with CAN'T relate to the average American (which is true for many/all politicians--but at least they are smart enough to not act like they can all the time). Most importantly .... HE TREATS COMMON, EVERYDAY AMERICANS LIKE THEY ARE COMPLETE PIECES OF MORONIC :poop: with insults, lies, vulgar behavior. (And if a Democratic President spoke about how stupid republicans are constantly, "fake news", etc ... I would not support them either).

Does that go both ways? I think most of the right on here are pretty far right ... just like they will think after today, that I am far left. Doesn't mean its true ... but perception is reality. Besides ... anyone who (not you) who says that they could care less if Russia interfered in any of our elections so Hillary doesn't win ... that isn't moderate. Matter of fact ... its bordering on being a traitor.

From my point of view ... we haven't sniffed the hatred that the last TWO Presidents have seen (Bush/Obama). I have a lot of respect for your answer ... it shows thought and a willingness to put yourself into someone elses shoes. (If we all did that ... politics would probably be a lot easier to swallow ... and a ton more productive).

You know what I find sad ... is that you are apparently not a Democrat ... so don't pretend to know what we think. MOST of us weren't real thrilled with Hillary .. BUT we very much felt better about her than someone who appeared in Wrestlemania (and yes .. I know some of you on the right think that makes him more "normal" ... sorry ... he wouldn't pee on your back if you were on fire). The whole thought that Democrats can't get over that Hillary lost .... funny ... I haven't heard any of my Democrat friends say anything about Hillary losing except for when republicans say this self serving crap. I WILL NEVER BLINDLY FOLLOW ANYONE. This is America ... and it was created with that thought in mind. Just because you are willing to bow down to a person who embarrasses our country on a daily basis ... doesn't mean that I have to. A few other things that most Democrats can and will do on a daily basis: *Support our military even though our President makes our stomach turn *Support law enforcement even though our President makes our stomach turn *Help others who are less fortunate -- even though our President and the Right thinks we should throw them away *Support the fight against illegal immigration --- even though it is constantly discussed in a manner to where we don't *NOT SUPPORT TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH DISGUISED AS A HEALTHCARE PLAN. None of that has ANYTHING TO DO WITH HILLARY CLINTON. IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH BEING AN AMERICAN WHO CARES DEEPLY ABOUT THIS COUNTRY.

Pretty good answer ... I am glad someone realized that every simple question doesn't have to be broken down in 100 smaller questions before it makes sense.

Not a real hard question ... seems like the far right wing ones here are the only ones who are having trouble with the question .... SO ... what needs to happen before you will no longer support this President?

I was broad for a reason ... but if I need to clarify ... lets call it ... "SUPPORT of this President". Its obvious that most of you refused to support our last President .. and any/all reasons were good enough to hammer him at every opportunity. Now--the question is being put to you ... you constantly bash Democrats because THEY ARE DOING THE EXACT SAME THING THAT REPUBLICANS DID TO THE LAST PRESIDENT. And on the topic of Hillary ... SHE DIDN'T GET ELECTED. My opinion ... neither candidate represents us in the manner that we deserve ... but I have a hard time thinking that 1. Hillary would have been worse. 2. More importantly ... the Right wing radicals would have been a thousand times worse than the left is being right now towards Trump. RUSSIA IS NOT OUR FRIEND ... and anyone that is okay with RUSSIA helping either candidate meets my personal definition of being a traitor. This deal amazes me .... the great savior Ronald Reagan made pushing back on Russia an art ... NOW the Right is okay with RUSSIA influencing our election? Seriously ... good grief.

Seriously-- those of you on the right -- what do you need to see that will change your mind about the current President? There is a ton of gunslinging from both sides ... but is there anything that could truly ever change your minds? (This would also be a good thread for the other side as well).

Umm ... wrong. I think you meant that "Trump has went insane" The funny thing is ... for the first time in my life that I can remember ... there are republican politicians who agree. Obama is still bashed to high heaven ... and why? Because he represented something that wasn't seen before in the White House (just like Trump... but from different angles). Pretty funny ... but doesn't the email chain from Donald Trump Jr. talk about coming from the Russian government? How freaking arrogant can you be (because any moron could read that and at least entertain the thought that maybe, just maybe this administration is a sham). I love it ... the Right pulls this act that they have never trashed a president the way this current president has been treated ... freaking bull. I know .. Donald is a great businessman who can get 'merica back to where it once was! ... ha, ha ... how many times has his joke of an empire filed bankrupcy? ITS COMPANIES LIKE HIS THAT ARE ONE OF THE MAIN REASON FOR HIGH TAXES! But ... I only work in that field ... so I probably have no clue what I am talking about.

First off--thanks for hanging in there with me ... I am sure that you (and others) have provided their viewpoint until they are blue in the face ... thanks for providing it again in this forum. Not to mention ... good points ... something that I will consider with a great deal of thought over the very near future. Now ... I am going to say this as a joke (but typing it out ... I realized that the thought makes me really curious since I read over it) ... since you are so opposed to leaks ... how far does it go? Are you at the point where leaks are so common that you will eliminate them completely from this website? Kick people off? After all ... a leak is a leak!? Lots of "I heard from a reliable source" on websites such as this (and I freely admit/appreciate that you don't tolerate much bull when it comes to topics like that). When do things cross over the boundary to okay on websites such as this .. to the point where a person provides the same info to a newspaper? Both are sources of news ... should people here be worried about potential prosecution? (The other reason I am curious ... is that there is another topic on the site that I thought about contacting you about where I know a ton of truthful information ... but I am not real sure I want to leak it ... true story).

Fair enough. I obviously need to get caught up. Does that mean that you think that Trumps comments come under the Whitleblower protection act ... or are you flat out ignoring my question about the President?

I certainly agree. However ... the truth of the matter ... for both sides (and I know it feels real big to the right currently but the rest of the population has felt the same way also) .. without some of these leaks ... a great deal of truthful items would not ever see the light of day. So I would go ahead and say that the system in general is what is truly broken. This country has turned into something that our founders did not intend. Over the transportation of time -- views from over 200 years ago are transformed into something different. BOTH sides are responsible for that. This isn't something that the left invented ... and it isn't something that the right invented. Now .. I work for one of the largest financial institutions in the world. (Matter of fact .. we are one of the large banks that the "President" has filed Chapter 13 on in the past). If I suspect that something illegal is going on -- it is my job to report it in anyway I see fit IF my direct manager does nothing with a potential legal act. Is that right? Maybe .. maybe not ... but there certainly haven't been any recent scandals like we have had in the past. It was the most successful way of fixing a bad set of issues. What is your opinion in regard to the President saying that he was/is being investigated? Are you okay with it? Blame it on "leaks" (if that is it ... please explain how that is different than any other "leak"). Very interested in everyone's thoughts here.

Wait a minute ... didn't the PRESIDENT say that he was being investigated? So hold on .. a registered republican (Mueller) nominated by a registered republican (Rosenstein) who just happens to work for another registered republican (Sessions--who has recused himself for some reason) -- is now saying that he isn't sure if he is going to investigate Trump? I have not seen anything from the Democrats suddenly acting like Mueller is the anti-christ. Hypocritical much? Sounds like more "fake news" ... or a "side show" or ... more "lies" and "leaks" from the right? (No, no, no, no ... the right would never do that?) Enough of the sarcasm that proves that both sides are full of it. Does it bother anyone in this room that the President, regardless of party, consistently lies to enhance his own personal version of events? After all ... pretty sure he said in writing this past Friday that he was being investigated. Is it safe to say that the right is okay with HIS lies? The real side show here ... is that the right thinks this is about "Russia and the election" ... I have a feeling that this investigation is going to be about Trump and his conflicts of interest regarding his company's special favors to countries/companies/people who potentially gain special favors/consideration for patronizing his "companies".

Stadium is great for the games. The problem is the facilities for teams. Beechwood had to use a baseball batting cage as their locker room. The cage took up about 90% of the room. The room also had no bathrooms and no showers, so the kids couldn't even shower after the game. The Batting Cage was about a 4 minute walk to the stadium. Also, at half time the team was in a hallway with no tables or boards to write on. Coaches were on their knees writing adjustments down on folding chairs. If they can't guarantee locker rooms, they shouldn't be hosting games. These kids work their butts off to be rewarded with an unbelievable experience. Getting dressed around Jugs machines and bat racks shouldn't be a problem that needs to be endured.

Beechwood won that game against Cov Cath in 1994, 19-10 and actually had the ball inside the 10 and took a knee late in the game.
