I feel that Trump is doing more harm than good for our country?

How about you?

@BlueMetalChick Right So then they can attack Qatar most likely.

@SW-User I just don’t like it when Americans imply that America is not great. It’s actually unpatriotic.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@SimplyTracie It's the opposite of unpatriotic. It's the ultimate form of patriotism to want to make your country better than it is.

@BlueMetalChick I agree. I would support #MAB = Make America Better

@SimplyTracie :) This reminds me of that old argument about ...

@Heartlander I get it but don’t it depend on who is the mechanic? 😝

So, you think Detroit and Chicago are already great and should be just left as is?

Finally, someone looking for middle ground!!!

@Heartlander Did I mention a city? I meant America, as a nation is great.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Heartlander As a Chicagoan, I will rip your entrails out of your abdominal cavity if you ever compare us to Detroit.

Remember when Obama bailed out that Chinese company that stole US intellectual property and violated export laws?

Of course you don't. Because that was your savior, El Cheetoh.

@hlpflwthat Oh, I'm still trying to understand why an I-Phone that's manufactured in China would be cheaper in the US than in China?
Heartlander · 80-89, M
@BlueMetalChick It's OK, I could have used a dozen big US cities besides Chicago and Detroit.

Why are so many big American cities crumbling? Why can't Detroit, Baltimore, Kansas City, Cleveland, New Orleans, Chicago be made Great again? Why are we tolerating the high crimes and crumbling infrastructure?

It's obvious that making them "better" is a step towards making them and the rest of America great again, but why not shoot for the stars?

@Heartlander I'm inclined to agree, our cities aren't awful, but they leave a lot to be desired. And we could improve them like crazy if we committed to it instead of wasting our money on arming jihadists in Syria.
Heartlander · 80-89, M
@BlueMetalChick Making those cities great again (including mine) requires restoring their economic viability among other things.

Our rules and regulations are designed for middle-class Americans living in economically viable communities. But those same rules and regulations also apply to the poor and the crumpled inner cities, and for them those rules and regs are stifling. Our middle-class suburbs are viable because people with money can afford to follow the rules. For people without money, those rules are like lead weights.

It's not about just getting the government off of rich people's backs but probably more important to get government off of poor people's backs.
