    Well, there you go, Tiger - it's ALL over, Trump's approval rating among all adults, all 1500 of them or so, is in the thirties. What now? Maybe the GOP Congress will impeach him because he's not popular enough?

    Then there's the midterms - maybe your strategy should be to keep hammering this home and then maybe you'll win Congress! Hope springs eternal.

    No matter the approval rating, we have Trump for 4 years. Gotta figure out how to get things done instead of whining.

    If the Dems keep trying to scuttle everything they'll just shoot themselves in the foot for mid-terms and next Presidential election. Voters aren't stupid. They see the media's bias. Like the misreading of the election polls the media is missing how hated they are by the common person.

    I think the GOP will lead the inevitable impeachment of Trump, little man, because otherwise he's going to destroy their party. It looks like all you guys have is to insult me. I can play that game too but would rather not.

    The Repubs only objective for the last 8 years was to block Obama. Let the games continue.

    Insult you? How so? I said similar things about Obama back in 2008 - he would destroy the Democratic Party but I knew he'd NEVER be impeached.

    If I did think the Democratic Party would have been better off impeaching Obama before he DID destroy their party. I would have said nothing. I would have WANTED Obama to destroy the democratic party and thus would have no credibility on the subject.

    Now, let that sink in for a minute . . .

    Sure. We can continue to become internationally irrelevant.

    There's no question that will happen under the weak leadership of Trump and his cronies anyway. He's destroying America.

    He's been in office for only two months with no legislation passed. Quit drinking the Kool-aid being offered by the media and sit back to see what bills are actually written and passed into law. We have checks and balances in this country.
    It is precisely because of those checks and balances that I could live through 8 years of progressives destroying the moral base of our society with a post-modern relativist agenda. I knew they would receive push back to their socialist agenda.

    I haven't drunk Kool Aid in 55 years. I see the destruction he's done in a very short period of time and feel the need to stop him. now. Check's and balances? With a republican Congress, a Republican Supreme Court and a Republican President? I suggest you take a look at the real situation. Our allies are abandoning us. We are poised to waste even more money on war even though we already spend as much as the next highest military spending countries combined. We are about to take away health insurance from 24 needy Americans. Hate abounds. Racism, religious intolerance and anti-Semitism are on the rise. Christian love is the only thing to find against this and I am trying to do that. But sometimes there comes the time to stand up against a tyrant. That time came in the 1930's in Germany and Dietrich Bonhoeffer responded. That time is NOW in America.

    Hate does abound. It is coming from progressive socialists demanding that the US give up sovereignty and kowtow to the demands of socialists. Such hatred must be resisted and repelled by God fearing citizens.

    The executive branch does not represent my personal values, but I will give them the opportunity to show me what they will do. That is exactly what I did with President Obama. While I found his family to be admirable, I also found many of his policies to be detrimental to the citizens of this country.

    I doubt you would know what 55 years looked like if it hit you in the face. Nothing you posted here is true or can be supported.

    I know you meant to say 24 million, but, still, I got a chuckle.

    Hate certainly abounds. Here at the BB there are several, often many, hate posts against President Trump, and obvious to most of us that the accusations are either misrepresentations, fabrications, unsubstantiated, undocumented "facts" or just plain out and out lies.

    Yes he has his flaws as did many presidents of the past and also ourselves.
    We are ALL flawed human beings.

    The progressive press, nay all of the progressives (except a few like Michael Moore) failed to see that their inundating of the air waves and cyber space of these fabrications led to an overwhelming distributed population win for President Trump.

    EVERY STEP along the way his downfall was predicted, yet he only gained momentum.
    Now the progressive leftist liberals are adding to the hate campaign against him which will I believe add even more to his momentum in 2020 (and 2018 for the GOP).

    I am a former Democrat and had the DNC promoted a Blue Dog pro-life candidate I probably would have voted for him/her. Instead, who did they give us? - well never mind.
    My JFK party has been kidnapped by leftists socialists (and worse).

    We will see who of the DNC house will support Judge Gorsuch.
    They know that he is the hope of bringing down Roe vs. Wade and IMO will attempt a filibuster coup to destroy his chance.

    Also IMO, Christ's love demands that the Roe vs. Wade legalization of the blood shed of the innocent be rescinded.

    I find it hard to believe that you're really a minister. Makes a nice handle though doesn't it?

    the so called "24 million" do not have realitic insurance. what people have is coverage for catastrophic medical events at prices far higher than ever existed for typical insurance with the most coverage. The premiums are excessive and the deductible range from 6 to 12 thousand dollars. It's not insurance it's a joke is what it is, but libs like to call it insurance trying to paint a picture that it is more than what it is. Once again they do not care if what they want works or not they only care about their so called good intentions.

    Then why haven't the Republicans repealed Roe vs. Wade in the 45 years after a Republican court passed that measure? The GOP has used that as a political master stroke all this time.

    That's simply not true. Obama set a higher standard for health insurance requirements for both people insured by their employers and the needy who didn't have insurance. Again, I'll ask do you really know anyone on Obamacare? I do, people who would have died if that law hadn't passed. Murder of the needy by taking away their health insurance is just as abhorrent to true Christians as abortion.
