    Which is ok, I can't fault them for it. Here's what I hear when I read their posts:

    So it goes.

    You still love MAGA. You ARE MAGA. You voted for a guy who shĩts all over our Constitution just to make a buck, you love it. You say things like “preserve our country” but this guy is burning it down. Keep “saying” but no doing…..

    I really enjoy this. So many of my special Ed students used to fight with emotions and attempt to belittle others in order to prove a point. Brings back memories.

    Something else to consider, Vision has voted for DJT more than I have, as I have never, and he has, or so he said. Who knows for sure?

    This got me to thinking, who was the make America great again candidate that I did vote for? Bill Clinton. That was the essence of his message, and in his first bid for office I was hearing him say things that I believed in. I even had bumper stickers and everything.

    All in all he was not the worst President we've had, and I don't regret my vote. I didn't vote for his second term, but I did feel sorry for him. It seemed the poor guy married an LGBTQ person and had to find satisfaction outside of marriage. The price of being a power couple, I guess.

    I really did like that whole balanced budget thing, though. I wish that had been a trend we could hold on to.

    like most things, MAGA has been corrupted by the rich and disgruntled. Take from the working class and give to the rich.

    I agree I think he was a good president and he worked really well across the isle. I remember working on his campaign when I was in HS (that is where all the hot girls were lol). Also for your Trump Vote you should have joined my grassroots campaign to get James Hetfield elected.

    Well, when I get a little time later I'm going to have to look up James Hetfield, name's not ringing a bell right now. Later is probably going to be tonight or tomorrow, I hope.

    True but as @IndustMech pointed out James Hetfield is a cigar smoker and his cigars/whiskey are actually decent. Blackened

    But he had to take from social security to do it, and the balance wasn't balanced, then the NAFTA thing, bt that was agreed by many on both parties.

    Politics aside, what kind of person says something like this. Disgusting.

    He may of had a right to feel it, but saying that is very harsh. To be honest I have to check it out more, but if he did, and seems he did, it was not appropriate for sure.

    The thing about this that I find bothersome on a personal level is how as a society or morays can allow the harsh statements, belittling of others to become the norms.

    Yes, that's why he didn't get the 2nd vote from me.

    His other exploits didn't help, but weren't any of my business.

    NAFTA was a Republican wet dream in those days, my reaction was "What? So, we're going to ship all our jobs overseas?" People said "Oh no, it won't be like that." It was like that, shut down most of the jobs here. I knew three or four generations of women who worked at the local shirt factory, was related to them. All gone.

    The pendulum keeps on swinging. Scary.

    And it keeps swinging further and further to the left and further and further to the right and so on and so on and so on. That’s the most scary part of this. I just hope we don’t have generations of politicians, looking to overcorrect (against the opposition) for those that came before them.
