Seriously, this is NOT a liberal vs. conservative thing anymore. Trump is damaging the presidency. His being elected was a knee jerk reaction to hillary and the establishment. Had she not run the DNC to stomp Bernie, things would have been very different.
I'm not denying that trump won - he won fair and square. However, he's got no mandate. He won the electoral college by less than 70 thousand. More than that, every day that goes by shows his ineptitude. Now we're not supposed to take his tweets literally? Really? Plus, he's still tweeting about Arnold on the apprentice - again, really??
It's not so much that trump won - it's that America lost.
It IS a liberal vs conservative thing because I don't see how he's damaging anything other than the power brokers that make up the status quo.
I don't see ineptitude at all. I see him doing exactly what I wanted him to do.
As I said many times before the election, Trump would not be my first choice to carry the flag that we needed to be carried, into battle. But, he was the only one who was going to defeat Hilary and he did. That's why I supported him.
I worked for two men in the past that make a great example. One was like Trump, the other one acted like you would describe as "presidential".
Both eventually came to be a dominate force in their respective markets. One was hated by his competitors, one was judged as being a fair businessman by his competitors.
But in the end, and this is important, they both did the same things needed to succeed. It's jut one acted outwardly in a manner that others said was dis-respectful while the other was the opposite. But they were both practical and ruthless when they needed to be.
Here's another example: Ben Carson took a lot of crap for saying something about slavery and immigration. Turns out Obama said the same thing and faced no objections. Partisanship clouds judgment, myself included.
I don't like Trump tweeting sometimes and I don't take what he says seriously all the time. Interestingly, when I worked for the 'rude' owner, I didn't take his rants seriously either. I knew his that was his personality. It did not go over well with the shareholders but they knew he could deliver profits.
The 'more respectful' owner, didn't rant publically, but he did privately and put together the same plan to attack the target of his private rant the same was as the rude owner's public attack did.
The other things about Trump's tweets, as far as I know, he's not be completely wrong on anything yet. The Dems have already started backing off objecting about Trump Tower being bugged. That should tell you something.
