I've been gone from this site for quite some time. I'm terrified that our country has lost all logic and humanity. Trump has captured those who unable to reason and have given complete control to a mentally sick individual who is consumed with money & power. This upcoming election is incredibly important to the future of our country. There are those who are diligently removing progressive voter's from the voting rolls plus making it harder to vote for likely Democrats. This is being done in plain sight, and yet they are getting away with it.
Trump has done nothing but run his mouth with nonsense and tweeted demented attacks. He not only knows nothing about the Constitution or government, he has no interest in learning. The economy and market has been improving since 2010. The unemployment was at 10% until the Obama administration implemented actual policies that protected the consumer and the environment. Trump was handed a 4.6% unemployment rate and a deficit that had been cut in half. Trump's administration passed one major bill which cut taxes for the 1% and increased the deficit by 1.5 trillion dollars. It stands to reason that if you eliminate all regulation that the emediate reaction will apprear positive, however wages are still stagnant and the environment will be destroyed.Trump doesn't care. Children as youn as a year old are being kidnapped and caged. Trump is a huge embarrassment around the world and is killing the economy with stupid tariffs. He is mentally damaged and represents the worst of humanity.
It's a challenge to us (our dedication and intelligence) and to the Constitution (which is protecting us to a certain degree.) It's a challenge to VOTE and it's a challenge to endure. We WILL get through this! Think of all the terrible times we've withstood...wars, ''reconstruction,'' a devastating depression, more wars, Presidential assassination, etc. And we manage. Because we're NOT going to let some insane, raving blob of greed and ignorance take us down!
Atheists and Agnostigs differentiate from the "others" because we reason....So, your comment about Trump capturing "those unable to reason" doesn't apply here.
Could you further explain your post please?
@DaveRohbock Isn' t my comment obvious? Yours is. You want people to think those who vote/ed for DT lack the ability to reason....ability well developed among people who are Atheists / Agnostic.
Anyway, friend, nobody is 100% conservative or 100% progressive...we all are a mix of both. Bye.
@brentan I don't see "Atheist Republican" as a contradiction; this site is full of them. And yes, many people were fed up with "all talk n no action" from other politicians. I voted for Trump for a very specific reason and few others no "that" specific. So far, he is delivering the most important to me.
@DUCHESSA Because of the polarised views, it’s not likely that any one side will accept that the other side can do anything good. The left has taken on an almost religious stand, all self-righteousness and casting the other side as heretics. The right claims to be getting things done but we don’t quite know what. The usual opinion is that the economy is improving, but only for the rich.
