What did they say and what scared you so much about them? If I know who the authors are, I might not have to read the books.
You've gotta understand, I'm watching you play your hand now. You're looking a lot like a Progressive to me. What you say scares you might be heaven to a conservative/libertarian/constitutionalist like me.
Fair point about the about face, but I'd hate to break it to you, that's Washington DC. All politicians only praise those that give them what they want and then bury the same people when they don't. Seriously, they all do it. They've been doing it forever. DC's a viper pit. I'm not kidding. It is a soulless viper pit. Keep your eyes open and take notes on all of the Representatives and Senators in Congress. I guarantee you, you will see them do it, and twenty times over. Former FBI director Jim Comey is a prime example. Every Democrat was praising his name when he was working under Obama. When he opened the email investigation into Hillary Clinton, everybody in blue turned on him and Comey was the biggest piece of shit the Democrats had ever seen. When Comey came out and said Clinton wasn't being charged with anything (which was a crock of shit, by the way), then Comey was back in the Dem's good graces again. The only reason you're seeing Trump doing this is because that's who the media focuses on. If the very same microscope that's on Trump was on every Representative and Senator in Congress, you would have nightmares for the rest of your life. The media picks sides. Keep that in mind.
What do you think Trump controls? What exactly do you know about the US's system of government? I think you might be due for a tutorial. Trump might be the chief executive, but keep in mind, this country has no king, and our system of government is set up so that it never will. The power in this nation lies with Congress. But if you want to go a little further, the real power in this nation lies with the citizens. Full stop. - That's bullshit seeing that Clinton outvoted Trump and was not elected???
What Trump is and what he's portrayed as are two entirely different things. You seem to be getting your impressions from a lot of media types. Be careful about that. Did those same media types portray Obama as a devil or an angel? Wanna know how I look at Obama? It's not very good.
Or maybe you're getting your impressions from Trump's political rivals? Not very trustworthy sources. And it's nothing new. Sullying your political rival's name has been going on since the very first Presidential election. The junk that John Adams and Thomas Jefferson said about each other during their campaigns was horrible and legendary. The difference today is that the mainstream media is picking sides. They side with the Democrats. And we all know they're full of shit. The political game never ends. The Democrats have nothing nice to say about Trump, and it's not because he's a bad guy. He could be the nicest guy in the world and they would still lie and call him the devil. It's because they want to win the next election. Some of those aforementioned unnamed authors probably are trying to help them.
I don't know what critics you're talking about, but if you name them, maybe I can give you a line on what I think of them. History may be the best judge, if people write the history books fairly, with an unbiased pen. There's not a whole lot of that going around lately.
You know, if you look at history, we've had several Presidents that would be considered worse, behavior wise, then Trump. I'm not kidding. The world survived them, it'll survive Trump.
You never answered my question about where you're from.
