I am fully aware that those momentary "likes" are mostly from "strange bedfellows" of the left, and as such are only appreciative of the negative views of Trump. However, I am not responsible for who likes or dislikes my views - that is up to them.
Anyway, the post was specifically addressed to those on the right, my usual peers. I am sure most of the grassroots right are behind Trump, and I am equally sure that like me a good portion of them were never entirely happy with Trump's managerial, policy, and personality negatives. For those who are not burned out on the man, good for you, however I am.
As I have stated previously, I'm not supportive of impeachment this late in his term nor am going to dissuade anyone from voting for him in the next general election - the choices of 2020 will most assuredly be between Trump or someone worse. But that also does not mean that I need participate in a political system that no longer represents me - one reason I quit the party more than two years ago.
So yes, I'm burned out on Donald. I will always support some or many of the objectives of his administration, but I still believe it would be the best for the Republic if he woke up one morning and decided to resign - should there be a God, let us hope for divine intervention.
I hated the guy for years.
But our base attending his rallies with crowds in the tens of thousands, voting for him in the primaries in such numbers got me to rethink, to give him a listen. He was talking things that truly needed done, but not the way politicians usually talk, without the handlers, the ones who are hired to disingenously spray paint out all the imperfections in form and substance so we end up with a bland swill.
The Don? Not the same old same old. The PC world was becoming just too much, overwhelming us in an underwhelming way, our heritage and values assualted from every direction, something we seemingly could do nothing about... nobody had the guts to take it straight on, the systems hooks were in too deep for many of us, those with jobs. Those without had no real say except at elections. Both sides were superficially different, but really just pretty much the same do nothings.
Trump had the guts to say what we all saw as being not only wrong, but desperately wrong.
We needed someone, didn't have to be [seeing as its impossible] perfect, to come in and clean out all the rotten termite ridden old dead wood, eliminate those termites and get us back more on our founding course.
Nobody has come close to doing what Trump has already. But if you don't like him, tell me who would have gotten elected and done better? Right now we would probably be in a world war with Russia had the fat lady won... that would make the world so much safer, right?
Do what you want, but we had, still have, very little alternative, certainly no better ones at this point.
Myself, I ignore him talking mostly as he is not a great speech giver, his tweets are meant to disrupt the bad motive folk so they are not meant for me...I look at what he has accomplished and its undeniable. Better economy, ISIS no longer an imminent threat, jobs for all, getting us out of the a very screwed up ME, our NATO partners put on notice as they should have been from way back, both China and Russia put on notice we aren't taking what they are dishing any longer, NK considerably more docile and less threatening than before, we have a renewed focus on a problem, illegal immigration that had been left to fester, get infected and threaten our whole way of life...
Vote for the fat lady next time if she runs, that will fix it all. I am really tired of trying to convince folk... and if you want to hasten our decline, to which you do not seem particularly adverse, vote for her next time.
Sounds like it, in theory, would make you a lot happier.
