Trump tweet in Farsi 'the most liked Persian tweet' in history of Twitter

[Kentonio]

Side note: Have you noticed how those who claim that the Iranian people who hated their government had become united with their government because Trump killed their beloved General? Well, now that the government there has admitted lying about shooting down the airliner, the people are now even more against their government leaders. But Trump's critics seem rather quiet about that for some reason.

Some actual Iranians have pointed out that the people protesting against the regime aren't particularly fond of America either. People being mad about the airliner doesn't mean they think Trump murdering one of their leaders was a great thing either.

Their hatred will only grow until November.

I'm not sure the data backs you up. Donald's disapproval rating has been pretty consistent through most of his term. And other polling has showed that most people have made up their minds on him already.

Great you have an opinion. Just be aware it is shared by a minority of voters.

"This tweet by @realDonaldTrump with more than 100k likes is already the most liked Persian tweet in the history of Twitter," Saeed Ghasseminejad, senior adviser and financial economist at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, claimed."

Do we actually have any confirmation on this or are we just taking this on faith now ?

Bernie Sanders doubles his lead over Donald Trump in hypothetical general election poll

You can feel however you want, but don't make the mistake of thinking your feelings are shared by a majority of voters.

We'll see where Bernie is after the current Project Veritas recordings are all released.

Trump Approval Inches Up, While Support for Impeachment Dips

That’s a cop-out.

People criticise Trump because he’s next to useless....not because they hate him. Some may do, but it’s soooo much easier to simply recognise his complete unsuitability for the position that was bestowed upon him.

The booming economy, record-high stock market, and record-low unemployment--including among blacks is hardly useless. Those things have always been the main benchmarks by which a president is judged. The rhetoric of the political Left and their dismissal of all the good Trump has done is based on a clear hatred they have for the man.

It was enough to shift their attention away from "Death to America" to "Death to the Dictator", and are getting killed by their dictator's minions as a result: Witnesses Say Iranian Security Forces Opened Fire on Protesters Chanting ‘Death to the Dictator’

They're also saying, "Death to Palestine" Iranians Are Now Chanting ‘Death to Palestine’

Before all this, it was "Death to Israel" and "Death to America". Maybe they could start chanting about something other than death.

Especially when you look at who's left in the dem field of candidates. They've gotten rid of all their black candidates, which is rather telling about their values on diversity. The 4 front runners are also going at each other's throats more than ever, which should make for some good TV tonight.

One is reminded of the admonition from Moses:

See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil; In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply.​

I don't think Trump speaks farsi.

Google Translate might though.

There's also a TV show on tonight that I wanted to see. It better not get pre-empted by the dems.

The good news is that they're going after each other instead of focusing on Trump. Let's hope their appetite for hating each other will be stronger than their hatred of Trump. Then when the choice is made about who still stands in the end, Trump can finish them off, at least what's left of them.

Sigh....

ALL of those economic indicators were following their current trend (actually, they were doing better) long before Trump took office. The most credit you could pay him is that he’s stayed out of the way and allowed those trends to continue. Some of your farmers might wish that he’d stayed out of the way even more, following the harmful effect of his tariffs.

And let’s not even mention his cosying up with the world’s leading dictators and murderers, his constant and continual lying to the American public, his extortion of a foreign government to assist his personal political fortunes, his welcoming of Russia’s interference in the last election, his trashing of your own intelligence and security organisations, his termination of the US role in climate change negotiations, his actions in permitting Iran to once again develop nuclear weapons, his locking up of children in cages, etc, etc. No, let’s not consider any of that....let’s just cop out by claiming it to be “hatred”....

Maybe if America stopped bombing the Middle East it wouldn’t be on their minds so much.

Yep, more moving around in the low 40's. Every time it goes towards the high end of the range we get breathless threads about how it means something. Then it drifts down again, and when it goes back to near the top of the range we've seen before, we get the same posts. Rinse and repeat.
