We can understand the leftard rulings from the 9th circuit in light of the President's obvious statement that judges are political. Only an idiot or an apologist would assert otherwise.

if you think the vast bulk of presidents in the last hundred years or so stood for anything except their self-aggrandizement you are exactly thesort of foolish naif they want to attract in re-election worthy quantities.

@redredred Ronald Reagan stood for individual freedom worldwide and less government at home; Lyndon Johnson stood for "the Great Society"; FDR pushed the New Deal; Woodrow Wilson had his principles to construct a peaceful world order in the wake of the first world war ... etc. All these ideas were greater than the presidential egos that backed them.

@WoodyAq But that was before the America of the Flag and the monuments was sold to the highest bidder and stopped being the land of opportunity. Time to move on. The Gold Rush is over. Trump is just a symptom of the desperation of the people for a life thats not coming back.

@whowasthatmaskedman Trump's election is a symbol. The man himself stands for things that, if adopted, would change the way America works. And not for the better.

lyndon johnson was a lying murderous bastard who sent thousands of young americans to their deaths in Vietnam to no purpose because he was too egotistical to pull out of a no-win situation. He backed the great society (a budget buster were still paying for) and related civil rights legislation so he could have, and i quote, " Those N_____s voting democrat for 200 years". FDR Ordered the destruction of millions of dollars worth of agricultural product to drive up food prices while millions starved. He had essentially no understanding of economics and his floundering unnecessarily extended the great depression by at least seven years. Wilson ran for re-election promising to keep us out of WWI and then promptly committed troops once he won. He railed against the strictures of the Constitution while president of Princeton and later ignored the rules of presidential succession while he suffered a debilitating stroke and let his wife serve as de facto president.

You mistakenly claimed my last paragraph gave a skewed view of history. I said it doesn't. The rest of your comment was equally wrong.
