I’m on two local government boards and the board of another organization. Hardly liberal organizations.
Sorry but There’s not one of those places where you claim correct thinking people assemble within 75 miles of me. I must be missing out by not going to fast food restaurants or being a catholic.
As far as his behavior it’s as easy as saying what you said is unacceptable. Politicians have done it for hundreds of years in this country. It’s ghastly that trump has such control of his minions in Congress that criticism is political suicide.
Lindsey Graham has gone from never trump to trump’s asskisser in two years because he’s scared. Watch the link I posted, nothing fake there but Lindsey.
As far as Hillary goes your reading comprehension must suck.

So you judge the entire GOP, tens of millions of people, by the actions of one man, Trump. Sounds fair and rational.
Can I judge you based on what elizabeth warren says and does? Or AOC? Or Anthone Weiner? or Hilary Clinton?
"Lindsey Graham has gone from never trump to trump’s asskisser"
Graham bashed Trump just yesterday for his "go back where you came from" comments. Graham was very critical of Trump, just yesterday. Your issue, is that you divide the world into 2 groups...those as deranged and blinded with trump hatred as you are, and everyone else is a Trump asskisser. No in between, not with you. ANyone (like me and Graham) who praises him sometimes, and criticizes him sometimes, is a Trumplican. TDF nailed it. I'll probably stop responding to you, there's literally no point, your entire perspective is orange man bad, you have nothing else, you aren't capable of seeing or hearing anything else. Look at the threads you've posted since he got elected.

I had to look to find what set you off, is this it? I’ll stand by it.
“So you need to think about whom you choose to lead, what they say matters.”
You keep insisting that if I despise Trump I must like liberal politicians.
Silly boy, I believe all Americans have the right to a political voice.
Trump doesn’t, as evidenced in his speech and his response to Grahams “criticism”.
“I disagree with Lindsey on that,” he said. “He said, ‘Aim higher, shoot higher.’ What am I going to do, wait until we get somebody else in a higher position, higher office? These are people that hate our country.”
I don’t find this acceptable, apparently you do.
AOC and I probably don’t agree on a single policy issue. But I don’t believe she “hates” America. I believe she & I believe in different America’s. And I will defend her right to say whatever she wants to say. And I will never demand she leaves this country because we disagree.
As I’ve said many times, I feel no need to praise Trump, he already claims more than he deserves.

I don't think Trump said that all Americans do not have a right to a political voice. Or any other voice, for that matter. This appears to be another one of your many, many lies re Trump.

Sounds reasonable (acceptable, you seem to place yourself in some position of moral judge who accepts or doesn't). Lindsay also said “We all know that AOC and this crowd are a bunch of communists,” “They hate Israel. They hate our own country. They’re calling the guards along our border — Border Patrol agents — concentration camp guards. They accuse people who support Israel of doing it for the Benjamins. They’re anti-Semitic. They’re anti-America."
Do you find that "acceptable"?

Yessir judge PeteF, you accept your verdict that Trump claims more than he deserves. In what universe are your incessant anti-Trump comments more "acceptable" than Trump's?

Quite the "bully pulpit" I have here, isn't it?

Perhaps I'm wrong, but it seemed clear to me that you were counterpointing Trump's tweet or his rhetoric in general by pointing out you wouldn't do what he does. If not, then I guess you just needed to let us know that you will "never demand she leaves this country because we disagree." Don't know why you needed to tell us that. Thanks, but I really don't care if you would or not. Do you find what she says acceptable?

So because you don't have a bully pulpit your comments are more acceptable than "Trump's"? You are more sarcastic, bitter, hateful, misleading, lying than Trump. Yet you don't find his comments acceptable. You are in your own universe.
