In reply to the discussion: US announces withdrawal from TPP [View all]retrowire
(10,345 posts)Yes there are parallels and common ground to be made, but trump gets no credit from me for his bigotry and insolence. Draining the Swamp? And now he's got a Goldman Sachs cabinet. That invites only more corruption and big money into our government. If Trump supporters can't see that, then I don't know what to say.
Otherwise, thank you for your very respectful discourse with me and I hope your home on the web comes back in working order soon enough.
We may be on opposing sides, but we Americans won't progress at all by refusing to communicate and reason with one another. Thanks for your time.
EDIT: And so you've been banned, but those are the rules here. And just to add and reiterate on my point regarding the Goldman Sachs cabinet, your username was disestablishmentarian. How much more "establishment" can you get with a cabinet like that? How stupid can you get with selecting foxes to watch the hen houses of all our departments?
From what you wrote, I could see that you liked everything Bernie had to say except for those "differences" you mentioned. Like, immigration, muslims, definitions of socialism and whatnot. I won't call you racist for the immigration problem you have, that can be justified without racism, but the muslim problem? Sorry. It's racism.
Muslims have been around for thousands of years without many problems, but now that an extremist group has the world by the balls, the right wants to stereotype the entire religion? And set up lists for them? Sorry, it's racist to define a wide group based on the actions of a few. And ISIS is the few.
I hear you on listening to Trump but, I heard enough of him. And your suggestion that I give him advice? We did. Look, we're the majority. 3 million more of us than what voted for him. You think he actually wants to listen to us? We're shouting from the top of our lungs and we're being referred to as "fake news". We're saying, "Where's your tax returns" and he's saying, "Well I won and I don't think the American people care about that anymore."
Again, thanks for posting.
