Be proud, conservatives. This is the guy you chose.

So interesting to see 'Progressive' Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run.

“Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how it is done. "

Really? Not only is this abjectly ignorant, it's what you expect somebody with a name like Billy Clyde to shout with a confederate flag in his hand at some Southern rally n' cook-off.

All you have is ad hominem? That’s it?

A direct Tweet from the president. A means of looking into his soul, his intellect and his policy. A platform Americans are supposed to follow and understand. A stance all citizens are supposed to agree with.

Just not liking a quote doesn't mean you can minimize its importance.

@Graylight Are you high? Please tell me you’re high.
@GallantlyChurlish you are in denial. Party before country right?

@Graylight @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Personal attacks aren’t the same as making an argument.
Just a little footnote, your sensors are shorting. I’ve never declared a party affiliation and have voted for as many democrats since 1992 as I have republicans. I do recognize “joiners” who choose feelings over reason when I see them, however.
@GallantlyChurlish Not recognizing these words as those of a bigot requires cognitive dissonance or an ulterior motive and my first impression was the later.

Are supporting Trump? Then you're conservative. And badly misled.

Are supporting Trump? Then you're conservative.

The idea that Trump is actually a conservative might be the greatest myth he’s propagated throughout this prolonged Svengali routine. The only concretely conservative thing he’s done with any consistency is to appoint conservative judges, but I think he does that for transactional reasons to placate Republicans that might turn on him if he didn’t. The rest of his playbook is much more authoritarian than conservative.

There’s nothing conservative about manipulating the free market with tariffs to choose winners and losers.

There’s nothing conservative about using tariffs as a foreign policy bludgeon against our allies and neighbors.

There’s nothing conservative about attacking the free press, which is supposed to be protected under the First Amendment of the Constitution that he swore an oath to uphold.

There’s nothing conservative about undermining our strategic alliances while embracing and cuddling up to dictators and despots.

There’s nothing conservative about isolationism and nativism.

There’s absolutely nothing conservative about a massive tax cut without spending offsets to keep it deficit neutral at the very least, and it’s certainly not conservative to balloon the deficit and thereby the national debt.

Donald Trump is many things, but conservative is not one of them. He’s something else entirely. If anything, ideological conservatives should be even more motivated to vanquish him next year than liberals, because he’s completely perverted and contaminated the very concept of it.

@GallantlyChurlish That's funny you mentioned ad hominem since when Trump does this stuff it's specifically to draw attention away from what is being talked about. The manipulation is kind of obvious there. I don't know what countries Trump is referring to so I am assuming but countries in higher poverty have a multitude of reasons for being that way. Capitalism is one, corruption is another.. ONE Democrat congresswoman is not going to ride in on a white horse and save the day.

Don't pretend like it's anything else, I hate people that mince words.
