@TexChik Stop being silly. People should really move on. Neither Obama nor Clinton is our President.
If there was crimes committed, FBI Director Wray (trusted Trump nominee), needs do whatever needs to be done. I’m all in favor of locking up any and all criminals. I don’t care if they’re left or right. Lock um all up!
It is important to respect and support the office no matter who is the president. That is true when trump is in the office, as well as when Obama, Bush, Clinton, Reagan, or anyone else was. However, support and respect for the person in office is a completely different matter. The current occupant doesn't respect the office himself, and he does not deserve the respect or support of many Americans. It has nothing to do with the election--it has everything to do with how he's conducted himself in office.
Let me ask you this? Angela Merkel is the current Chancellor of Germany. Do you support her and the office of Chancellor? Does that mean that if you do not support Chancellor Hitler that you are a crybaby?
The bottom line is that you can have respect for and support the office without respecting or supporting the office-holder.
A sensible line of reasoning. I’m disappointed in the President’s behavior that’s for sure. I should have known better based on his history. On the other hand there are some high powered people like General Mattis and Secretary Pompeo who I respect that are sticking with him so there must be something .... @Northwest
@jackjjackson I think Mattis is not going to last past November. I respect him. He considers this as part of his national service, and not a reflection of his politics or anything else.
Yes, let's all be lemmings and blindly respect and support whomever is in office. Because to actually observe our democratic freedoms, key of which is the opportunity and ability to openly criticize those in office, just makes us cry-baby losers.
The President is in the process of fulfilling his promise of improving the country. Your definition of improvement differs from that of others. @Graylight
Here in France, in England and in America, it is not our 'leaders' which shall destroy our respective countries, it is the people themselves. France does not have the president which reflected my vote but this will never encourage me to forsake those citizens whose votes he did reflect. If we are to grow as nations and continue to grow then we must be united in our citizenry - we, after all, are 'the country'.
That's a bit like asking why there were so many cry-baby losers when Hitler was in power. Perhaps they just have an intense like of what these people stand for.
