What' your position on homosexuality, same sex marriage, killing the unborn?

Again..... Poe's Law?

What's your position on married men paying off porn stars they've committed adultery with while their 3rd wife is home taking care of their baby? What's your position on consistently lying & not showing a bit of repentance for it? What's your position on tweeting out hurtful conspiracy theory bullcrap that hurts kids who've just been through a massacre at their school? What's your position on repeatedly violating the 9th commandment?

I'll say there were decent Republicans in the 2016 primary who had positions consistent with my own values as a conservative American.

How the Swamp Drained Trump

tulc(hopes President Trumps base really likes the taste of swamp water, they made the swamp in to the government) :sigh:
To him the swamp is the FBI, I always thought it was lobbyists like the NRA. I guess it goes with the territory that governing is different then campaigning are two very different things. He seemed to be in favor of reform but has uniformly conformed to the status quo. Trump is either gullible or disingenuous, he is not draining anything, except the expense account that covers his luxurious lifestyle.

IMO - to Trump the swamp is whoever isn't standing in line behind him to tell him that his farts smell like roses & to pucker up their lips to kiss his butt.

He is adept at telling people what they want to hear, that doesn't mean he is what they think he is. I think it's pretty clear he isn't draining anything, he seems driven to accomplish little and gain on an epic scale. How's the wall coming I wonder, did the Dreamers get the 'gift of love' yet? Where is the great health care he was talking about and I thought the investigations would be over the first of the year. It doesn't look like the investigations are over, it looks like they are picking up momentum. I sometimes wonder if he is an android with a defective chip, really ought to get that checked out.

Can't disagree Trump is imperfect, your candidate for a perfect president will be fulfilled when Jesus returns.

I thank God Obama and Hillary are gone!

The only reason posts like this are done is to just make trouble. No other reason. Shameful.
...or because someone wants to post something they thought was interesting or needed to be pointed out. :wave:

Well Trump is far more, um, "imperfect" than every other POTUS in our history. I'm not a fan of Obama or Hillary, but at least they are competent. They both won the popular vote.

Again the real problem was with voters messing up hugely in the 2016 Republican primaries. We had conservative Christian choices for the POTUS then.

Trump has a long way to go in getting rid of the aftermath of Obama, the swamp is big, but the levy is broke.

Trump, Pence, Gorsuch, great!

Open Guantanmo Bay, Great!
Immigration Reform, Great!
Bring Back Jobs, Great!
Increase tariffs on foreign goods, Great!
Stop foreign aid, Great!
Stop foreign lobbying, Great!

One more conservative Supreme Court appointment and we can turn this evil liberal ship around.

Reverse same sex marriage, Roe v Wade

I pray and hope

Maybe its time to give the Trump bashing threads a rest.
I will gladly stop posting threads calling President Trump out on the things I think he's doing wrong when he stops doing things I think are wrong. Until then I'm probably just going to keep posting things. :wave:
tulc(isn't sure why this a problem) :sorry:

Its just goading. Maybe a mod will nuke this.
...or you could simply address what the OP says and refute it? That would be how these threads work. :)
tulc(just thought that option should be pointed out) :wave:

This just pits people against each other. Shameful behavior for Christians. Fighting amongst each other simply for the sake of fighting. Do you think anyone will be persuaded either way? Toxic and a rotten testimony. Who needs this? I don't care what Trump is doing. It doesn't justify this here.
So...we're going the ad hominem route? "directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining" If you can't refute the facts attack the person posting instead? I do understand why this seems to be the standard reaction now a days, I mean it's not like there's any way to deny what the author wrote so this is pretty much all that's left. :wave:

...why do I get the impression you didn't read the article? I'm not really surprised, it does point out some hard truths for President Trumps supporters. :sorry:

What' your position on(snip)
I can tell you my position: if you'd like to discuss these subjects you should start a thread about them where they can be discussed. Addressing the OP is what's supposed to be discussed in this thread. :wave:
tulc(just thought that should also be pointed out) :)

Trump makes me miss Gerald Ford and Dan Quayle and I thought they were comical. It's nice to have a Republican in the White House that doesn't know what he is doing. That is at least one thing I like about him.

How dare you insinuate that we in the General Politics forums would resort to fallacious rhetoric. I think that means that you...I mean the problem with you...wait a sec...you know what I think of you...ok sometimes but you deserve it...I don't know...maybe you have a point.

Just kidding, now back to our regularly scheduled discussion.

It kills me sometimes, Hillary Clinton never actually occupied the office. Whatever you thought of Obama he can't do much with regards to a political agenda of the GOP. Move on, they control the board, why aren't they moving to check mate the problems they had with the Democrat agenda?

Well...you do have to remember: they were the Party of NO!!!! for 8 years I'm thinking they kind of just don't remember what it was like to be anything else. :wave:
