Sorry to hit a nerve about you posting YouTubes of your guitar riffs. I like SRV, Joe Satriani, Al Di Meola etc. But it's usually young kids male and female posting them on youtube. Maybe you were a late starter.

Don't single him out.
You just described 90% of the people who post political opinions here.

I am not even aware of his tweets UNTIL the MSM makes a big deal about them. They aren't a big deal UNTIL the MSM makes them so.

C'mon Mannnn.
Trump Tweets and knows they will all pick it up. As much as he says he hates the fake news, he sure uses them for his own gain. That is he used to until he pissed them all off.
You're pretty uninformed if you don't know his tweets. He really makes himself look like a total ass on Twitter.

It's not that I am uninformed. I am uninterested in the background noise. Tweets/boycott calls, nicknames, etc. carry no weight. Again, I am results oriented. I'm about 50% ok with any means to an end. I want to see America get manufacturing back, people going back to work...real work, not IT and marketing and web design. No offense to those that hold those positions but we need a well rounded society. I'm quite ok with nationalism. I'm ojk with getting out of these ridiculously lopsided trade deals and propping up of shithole countries that get us to fight their battles while they run for the hills or turn on us. THOSE things matter, not some snide remark made on social media. The fact that it twists up the liberals is really the only value it has for me.

I'm old school in the sense that I'm ok with cops cracking a few skulls if it keeps law and order. I'm ok with the mob taking a cut from the pizzaria if it means the neighborhood is a safer place. I'm ok with pedos being driven out to the desert and left there with a table spoon of water. These things don't bother me NEARLY as much as the backroom, slap you on the back, fight by day and drink together at night swamp activity. That benefits THEM, not us.

It all started out ok, but now it's just off the rails.
Trump has no agenda at all going into this election, other than to get elected and it is hurting the country.
Ignoring what he doesn't care about is just wrong and is killing Americans.
And what about this??? You can let this criminal activity slide ?

I think a few things. I think Trump underestimated the cunning and POWER of the swamp. I also think people took advantage of his inexperience as well as the distractions that the Dems provided. They kept his eye OFF the ball. Not saying it's right for him to allow the distraction, but I think it happened. I think too, that his tweets gave the kittens yarn to play with, so he could turn around and get something done while they played with the yarn ball. I don't think he is intelligent, but I think he is smart and by that I mean, I know hustlers that know how to make a buck...a big buck, running a bar, or a real estate business etc and they are NOT intelligent, but they are smart. I'm not a scammer or schemer. I'd be a HORRIBLE con man because it takes smarts that I lack. I manipulate on a micro scale, guys like Trump manipulate on a MASSIVE scale. He's a hustler and if that gets the job done, then I can tolerate some collateral damage, or missteps. He is at LEAST doing something. Most Presidents do NOTHING.

Try to be objective and consider this. Consider an environment where EVERY move that Trump has made is duplicated to the nth degree. Exactly EVERYTHING he has done while in office, was reported without the negative slant. Imagine that the press chuckled at his nicknames, agreed with his policies, recognized the deviance of the left, reported riots as riots, reported the COVID survivability rate, reported Trump's efforts to curb the spread...just try to envision what a MASSIVE difference the opinion of his presidency would be if he was not persecuted. If he was allowed to do the job he set out to do and the press remained objective, or possibly supportive. I am CERTAIN his rating would be through the roof. People generally are gullible and believe what they are told.

As an experiment, try to find Bobby Moynahan (sp?) appearances on SNL news. The guy that has all the news stories twisted around. THAT represents how the ill-informed spread Trump opinions and stories. Most of the time yo ask a hater why they hate him and you can DESTROY the reason. It will rarely be truth based. It will have some close proximity to truth, and be a viable story, but it won't be true. There are MILLIONS more uninformed people in this nation that there are informed ones. I read shit on Facebook that I cannot believe was actually posted. It is obvious the person has ZERO knowledge and didn't even TRY to find the facts. They blurted out something that was on a meme somewhere or that The View reported and they ran with it.

Stupid ****er. (Not you. HIM)
He's gotten quite a bit done. MSM just doesn't gloat on it like they did his holy highness owebama. I believe he will be reelected. The only way I can see it not happening is mail in voting.

I agree with people that think like me just like you feed off of Jeff"79 because he thinks like you. If this was a forum that leaned more to the left i would still post the same way. You're just butt hurt because you're the minorty here with no reinforcements and you can't go to PR&C because you're outnumbered there also. I read your posts and i see no intellectual thinking or posting. I see you bashing President Trump and going for Joe Biden. And i do the opposite. But i'am a lightweight and you're a heavyweight, right?
You think just like a Dem. If you don't agree with me you're a racist, homophobic, and WRONG.
