Hate Trump - Love Trump - Don't Hate Trump

[Mary Stetler]

I guess it's according to whoever you want to believe. Below is from the Associated Press. What is your source? I'd be more than happy to read it. I have an open mind.

CLAIM: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi blocked the National Guard from coming to the Capitol during the Jan. 6 insurrection.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. As Speaker of the House, Pelosi does not direct the National Guard. Further, as the Capitol came under attack, she and the Senate Majority leader called for military assistance, including the National Guard.

I watched the first recordings of Trump's speech. I watched the Congressional hearings where Pelosi was the head of Command in the Chain of command that day. Trump did direct the National Guard and Pelossi knew they were waiting and ready but told them to stand down.

You understand fake news and taking things out of context to make it fit your narrative? I watched the EXACT happenings.

Good morning to all-

Yep, I understand "fake news" very well and very clearly. I've been listening to it for some years coming from the First Felon and his MAGA minions on a daily basis.

I also watched the EXACT happenings, and the First Felon set the riot in action, and his "peaceful" comments while setting the rabble to the Capital was just like everything else he says, total misdirection and approval of the riot.

And the First Felon's reaction to the violence and destruction- and death- that he set in action tells the whole tale. He was not upset and he was not willing to do the things to stop the riot and he did not care if people he considered as "disloyal" and opposed to him were hurt.

In this as in all things, the First Felon never does anything himself, but he is very good at setting others in action to do his wishes. He's a fake, and that's all that he is.

you all be safe and keep well- and confusion to the republicans

Speaking of the AP. I live in Wisconsin. I was angered by the Black on Black shootings that were a regular occurrences In Chicago. One forth of July, not the only one, there were ONE HUNDRED and FOUR!!! shootings. The Green Bay station reported on a shooting in California of a Black man barricaded by himself in a log cabin with firearms. The FBI was called...
One man to 104!!!!! and 2000 miles away!
I called the station and reamed out the poor man who answered my call. I almost was screaming at him. How could he report on one man and ignore over 100 shootings in ONE DAY a mere 2 1/2 hours away from me?!!!
He said that was what 'they' sent him to report. The AP!

I think I am done with this back and forth. There are things that Trump had done that I don't like and things that we needed badly which I have already enumerated. His work is not done and stopping him now is the worst for this country. He like all politicians is out for his best but he is also out for ours ours, in that, and even the world's. His tarrifs on steel is bringing the largest steel plant back to the US into Iowa with the jobs it entails as well as other businesses. He wants to revitalize Detroit....
He is all of our President. God Bless us and use him as You see fit.

Sorry, CNN is not a source.

CNN is not a source in your opinion. Fox news is not a source in my opinion. The only anchors on Fox news I have any trust in are Bret Baier sand Martha MacCallum and I don't necessarily always agree with them.

I don't watch Fox or any of them, and I have no idea who Bret Baier or Martha MacCallum are. I mentioned CNN because it was the "source" of the quote.

I never watch the main stream news anymore

I agree that the current administration is lead by a jerk, who is destroying the middle class and the poor in this country.

However your constant wishing of ill will toward 1/3 of the population makes me feel pretty much the same about you.
That's why, although I might agree with some of the things you have posted, I keep you in the ignore bin to avoid having
anything to do with someone who openly wishes ill will toward that many people.

Although I agree the current administration is destroying this country for their personal gain, two of my best friends are still
supporters of him - why, I don't know - but we have agreed to not discuss him, because other then that we get along quite well.

I also find something terribly wrong with your constant wishing of ill will, and feel that is not a good sentiment to allow
to constantly be posted on a forum, though that is up to Ken. I'm not suggesting a ban but maybe some adjustment to the
guidelines, as constantly wishing ill will toward people is a rather disgusting thing to keep doing on a public forum for seniors.

This would be a very bland forum if people criticizing Trump or the MAGA movement were banned. The title of the thread invites people who "love" or "hate" Trump to post here. Saying "confusion to the Republicans" is pretty mild compared to many of the posts on this forum.

You can hold any opinions you want. I think it's the repetitiveness of them that people are finding annoying, including me. If you have an opinion, fine, but repeating the same tired insults over and over is a waste of space.

Yes, it would, and we wouldn't do that. Of course, this doesn't mean that someone is exempt from being banned. We don't ban members for their opinions, although we may do so for the way in which they are expressed, whatever side of an issue they might be on.
