In addition Trump has poisoned the well sufficiently to pre-empt such attacks."They'll be calling me this and that, but I'm the only one courageous enough to speak my mind."

I tell you, there is a price to pay for being lost in the storm with a captain lost in themselves at the helm. We've seen it. We have it. It goes this way until a greater people rise from those ashes.
And 2012 showed us we,as a people aren't smart enough to learn from our mistakes.Like I said (not to you) most people choose teams and stop thinking about anything except about how wrong everyone else is,not the possibility that they're wrong..Our Country has chosen a path of crime and dysfunction by majority choice,so it's what we have and will have for the rest of my lifetime I'm sure.It's like being overweight,it's a conscious choice that puts people into insane denial mode.You can blame other people and say it isn't your fault,or you can get real and put down the donut and get some exercise. Anyway,I just posted before because I think any real post has more worth than a C&P lazy troll post.Even a minimally thought out post beats that or some of the subtle hate posts in the private/public messages threads and such.Consider it my turn at taking out the garbage.Nice chat,catch you next time and stay cool.
