I Feel the Need To Post This....

In light of ALL the "Baby Trump" bullshit, anti-Trump posts, general craziness for the last 3 years; i voted for Obama in '08, wanting and hoping for change, the change that PRESIDENT Trump has brought and keeps trying to bring; now i realize, this will bring all the creepy, crazy crawlers out in force, but i had to say it; yes yes, "oh, racist change, xenophobic change, orange change, giving your buddy a medal change, "ignoring Corona change, fill in the blanks, etc etc; have at it, but i haven't felt better about our leader since i was a child, [Reagan era] flags flying, a man who will stand up for OUR country, a leader who isn't afraid to piss off everyone to do what's right, someone who actually isn't a politician doing what actually might be good for OUR United States of America,, -----> mic drop,,

@QuixoticSoul Would have been so much nicer with this, right?

@sunsporter1649 Yes of course. Any conventional politician from either party would have created less long-term damage.

I would put most republicans out of the cohort that ran that year over Hillary - except for the clown.

Yes, even the lizardman.

@QuixoticSoul Ah, so you like the swamp, eh?

QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M

@sunsporter1649 Unironically yes. "The swamp", with all of its non-partisan inertia has made this country into a superpower. It's largely why this nation is a great place to live. It's not perfect, but it is the cornerstone of any resilient and functional civil society.

You've been in the military - the swamp is our nation's NCO corps. In of themselves, they hold all of the know-how about actually [i]doing[/i] anything, and without them the officers who come and go are completely fucking useless.

This is something many burgers just don't understand because they've never seen a country without a solid and powerful core of professional civil servants keeping it running.

@QuixoticSoul LOL, non-partisan my ass.

@sunsporter1649 The swamp? You mean the same people Trump has filled his cabinet with?

QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M

@sunsporter1649 No, your ass is so partisan it has abandoned even a pretense of rationality.

Departments tend to exhibit certain ideological trends among personnel. Legal and law enforcement - conservative and republican, state department and education - liberal and democrat, etc, etc. That's more of a temperament thing than anything. By and large people do their jobs effectively, through the course of multiple administrations under different parties. This is largely the reason why America is not a complete shithole. It is a hallmark of most smoothly running developed nations - functionally, it's what [i]makes[/i] them developed nations.

But no, you'd rather have banana republic shit.

@QuixoticSoul i've read through all your replies, and i respect all you've said; but i've watched things slowly shift through the Obama's administration, i listen to what the Democrats say, and while you make excellent points i can't agree with them all; i'll leave it there because i don't have facts and charts to go toe to toe with you, i wrote what i wrote from the heart and i truly get disgusted with the behavior of the Left; if it's truly as you say, why the behaviors day in and day out since January 20, 2017? Why would we not work together for the better of the country, i have not seen that, and i don't think anyone can truly say they have.....thank you, i'm just stating my opinion, no disrespect intended

@silkandlace Its ok, don quixote is still having his three year temper tantrum over losing the election, despite their getting caught attempting to rig it

@sunsporter1649 Right, that old chestnut lmao - when in reality I spent the last three years gleefully dunking on idiots, and every day has been more entertaining than the last. These things are always win/win for people like me.
