Listen to him on a CNN interview today. Yeah there was the typical Trump hate, with him saying that he wished the stock market would crash. But… he did manage to say something true and profound. He railed against the PC portion of the Democratic Party and claimed that is a key reason why Trump won and manages full support from the Republican Party. The alternative is repugnant to most normal Americans. It's certainly resonates with me. As much as I wish Trump was presidential, I am nauseated by the antics of those who want to turn this country into socialism and ultra PC safe zones. Each week there is one example of another of ridiculous "offenses" and consequences. The firing of Jeffrey Lord. The Google memo. The intolerance within college campuses. Is it any wonder why the working class no longer support the Democratic Party.

I agree! I think, based upon ample evidence, that Trump is corrupt and inept. Whereas you lack the same kind of evidence and insist, without any real evidence, that Obama is so flawed that somehow he is even worse than Trump. Unsurprisingly you have been light on specifics. Please, enlighten us.

Right, so we agree that Trump is in way over his head. In what way is that better than Obama?

Consider the following:

There was the race-based accusation that Obama must have been born in Kenya despite all evidence to the contrary. Obama did not dignify any of it with a response. The tension built and built. Finally he produced the long-form birth certificate, the same documentation every Hawaiian born during that time is given. Mic drop. He won, and he revealed opponents to be a bunch of incompetent, racist loons.

And now we have Trump, so desperate to distract the suckers from the inevitable fallout from the Russia Russia Russia investigation that he is apparently trying to start a war with another corpulent, idiot megalomaniac, Kim Jong-Un of North Korea.

Please compare and contrast these two episodes, showing how Trump is better in any measurable way than Obama.

Kim and his father before him have been pulling these stunts for years. The worst possible response is to give them the attention they so desperately crave. What Obama did was ignore them, officially, and then impose sanctions to slow their ability to accumulate weapons.

Fake News, because Kim's action was **in response** to Trump's threats against NK.

I already said I had some concrete ideas - - but also said to Greg, "YOU GO FIRST".


> Kim and his father before him have been pulling these stunts for years. The worst possible response is to give them the attention they so desperately crave. What Obama did was ignore them, officially, and then impose sanctions to slow their ability to accumulate weapons.

By Trump threatening NK, he's given them a Propaganda Win.
That's a huge amateur mistake by Trump. Huuuuge.

Hitler? Oh he was busy this past weekend down in #Charlottesville.

And wishy-washy Trump has already had - - as of this morning - - three of his own
people (& counting) try to "clarify" that his 'on both sides' statement wasn't wishy-washy.

Except that it isn't strength. Nowhere even close. Donald's a little cowardly boy with

It was a response to a Borowitz piece in the New Yorker about Jared Kushner saying Kim Jong-Un had only attained his position through nepotism. It was quite funny, as Borowitz's articles normally are.

At least something has triggered a sense of moral outrage in Greg. Although honestly, I don't see how some drive-by comment on someone's fake tits can be worse than claiming you can get away with grabbing women by the pussy if you're a celebrity. I'll let Greg fill us in on that one.

So you really think Trump prevented KJ from attacking Guam; you really
believe that KJ was going to attack Guam?

The only difference between Trumps childlike outburst and doing nothing

Again. Obama did not ignore North Korea. He denied them the attention they craved and imposed economic sanctions. But your hero prefers twitter rampages, so I guess you have to feel that's better in some way.

My answer would be yes because Kim isn't a fool and won't start a war
he'd lose. Threats and taunting him just gives credit for being a

Meanwhile, sensing O's chronic weakness, Kim continue his nuke program with minimal consequences. Now 1/3 of exports are eliminated, due to the leadership the US has now.
