Coming from the “concern a day” club must have privileges. If you are constant in your criticism then I am sure you know what to expect at this point.
Do you have any friends that whine about the same crap on a daily basis? Do you constantly embrace them and tell them everything will be ok? Or do you kick them in the pants and tell them to move on with their lives? I honestly just don’t think you realize there is a point where the message gets diluted. Think about it.

Yes,you have earned the right to complain. Just as some are justified in complaining about the constant complaining.

The difference I think is that I don’t lower myself to juvenile insults and at times some really offensive statements and being an adult with control; if you don’t want to read the reaction of the day to the stupid arrse tweet or move of the day by Cheeto; be strong and walk away. Go take a walk, play or call one of your kids, go take a few casts, go wrap a rod, I suspect there are lots of chores to do; but instead you bitch, bitch, insult and insult some more, show some self control.

So there you go. An action gets a reaction but you cling to innocence. Show some self control and you just might get the same in turn.

Or just keep digging the hole, your choice.

Sure nothing to be concerned about, Trump wakes up and addresses Hunters interview performance, that of course is FAR more important than trying to undo the mess he created in Syria. SD almost never actually debates, it’s more of the same, greatest president, burger or yada yada. Scott is Mr. Whataboutism, Jim at least has good points worth debate at times and makes an effort to keep it above board. You two are echo chambers of the talking point of the day and throw insults around like twelve year olds.

Hey try this, explain why it’s OK for Trump to take a phone call and make a reversal of long time policy throwing the Kurds under the buss in the process without sitting down to discuss with ANYONE? That move is troubling to me and not just for the reasons I’ve already stated, what other impulsive moves with our military is he capable of making?

ISIS was defeated.

Until Donald Trump set them free.

All by himself.

He caved to foreign powers to protect his bottom line.

Left our allies to be slaughtered.

Ordered American troops to cut and run.

Our soldiers call it an act of betrayal.

Trump calls it winning.

And ISIS agrees.

What narrative painted above is wrong? Did he or did he not pull troops from the northern boarder after one phone call and it’s been confirmed there was no input from most of the key departments who would normally be key in this type of decision. Or maybe all the reporting about the results of that troop pull out are fake news as well.

Stand up and go where?

I did not vote for Trump but if the alternative is what I have been seeing from the Dem Debates so far than I am surely not voting for one of them.

I think (hopefully) we can survive 4 more years of Trump, but I am not sure we can survive 4 years of a Progressive left in power.

Lets try getting them standing up to Trump 1st . Never suggested they go any where.. ?

And if you think a progressive puts this country at greater peril than another 4 years of Trump . Your farther to the right than I am left .that for sure
As for Debates they're no better than Trumps rallies writing checks making promises they cant cash. And a congress wont entertain it any way . look at the Senate they wont bring anything to the floor unless they know Trump will sign it.. hows that for democracy and debate

pretty much every narrative you paint is wrong, embellished, exaggerated and hints of severe crankiness...but it's ok, I know it makes you feel better to vent....
