I read that fast but didn't see anything about making fun of a former POW or her fawning all over Putin. Maybe you can highlight the section?

Pretty pathetic when almost the full congress has to pass a law that won't allow the Pres. to lower sanctions w/o their approval bc they don't trust the Pres.

Well, seeing that is actually one area of responsibility of Congress, Foreign Affairs. Kinda like when Congress was saying it may need to block/mitigate Obama's Iran disaster?

OK, so it's only a character flaw when you insult a former POW. How about when Obama insulted that same exact former POW, by telling an audience during the 2008 campaign, that the McCain campaign was going to make people afraid of Obama because he was black?

Paul, what Trump said about McCain was disgusting, and once again, many many conservatives criticized Trump for it. Did you hear anybody defend that? I love McCain and was sickened by what Trump said.

We didn't vote for Trump because we think he's a nice guy. We voted for him, because the choice was between two genuinely ugly human beings, and between the 2, I like Trumps policies a lot more than I like Hilary's.

Here's the difference between the two sides, right here in this post. I agree that Trump's is a world-class jerk, many many people who voted for him, say the same thing. How many liberals concede that Hilary is a wretched woman? When I call her the "c" word, do you agree with me? Or do you attack me for it?

There is way, way, way more intellectual honesty on the right. Most of us concede Trump's personal flaws. Almost nobody on the left can bring themselves to be honestly critical about what a jerk Obama was (to everyone who didn't agree with him), or what a reptile Hilary is.
