My viewpoint is that he is our President, and like him or not, I would want this country to succeed not fail. Let me further explain that since my background comes from one that is more faith based than some, I always believe that God is in the details and I know He can use people for good whether they are His people or not. In saying that, maybe you will understand why my viewpoint is one of more optimism than another person's. I can't control whether he is the President or not at this point and I don't think spending my time tearing him down is going to help or change anything, nor is it good for my well-being. Your thoughts?
Hey, it's Sunday.......I had to throw my "sermon" in there.

Great question.
I do not know. I DO know that the acceptance of all his incredible misbehavior and the dismissal of the media as liars and the fact that people who are now becoming accustomed to such terrible, gross behavior by our President should GREATLY concern all Americans.
We have a poster, Rubicon who has diagnosed me and others with a syndrome. I am attacked as some sort of closet Clinton supporter. And wish that was the only attack, but the acceptance that comes so easy to you and others will just stay with you, and I think it is called gradualism.
I simply want people to make decisions based on truth, not lies. I want to disagree with our President, no matter his policies, on substance if policies. I want to stop attacking our hard working government folks because they do not like him, or more importantly do not trust him.
We are allowing by submitting a very new low standard be set.
No, nobody on here will change the world, but this "sickness" is spreading, helped of course by our President who actually thinks investigating a factual intrusion is a hoax. Read the reactions Trump supporters have, or the racial component visible always with him. If nobody cares..if nobody objects it simply gets worse.
Abby, I am not preaching. ThevTrump supporters on this forum fit the general rule, and don't attack..there are real exceptions but for the most part treat this like a Jim Jones type thing. Even though he lies to them, they find it acceptable. So many voted for him out of hate (for Clinton or Obama) but continue support. He thrives on that "love" hence all his rallies.
I can only express my valid and real fear of where this is heading...we do not shout out when he is racist. We don't shout out when he lies to us.
I am just scared. I believe in my heart that our institutions are under attack by the extremes. We, on this forum, will attack the NFL because he said to do it. He never mention the NFL charities, nor his long battle against the NFL because of his personal feud dating back to their burying him when he tried to move in their market.
I am saddened how he is twisting the very definition of patriotism and how he is giving life to the hate groups.
I suppose it is just difficult for me not to react to such a terrible threat to our country.
By the way, it is not good for your well being. To be subjected to actual sermons based on NOTHING is tough. So many posters represent all his bad traits as well. I have seen so much open racism, but more scary is the hidden, subtle racism by posters I "know" from years back. Such hypocrites they are.
I do know since you asked personally, that continually supporting him on here or anywhere will simply "lock you in". When you tell me the media is lying about him, you are simply diluting yourself, and you will continue to accept more lies
