Really, you were so hell bent against Trump there was no point debating you.

It's only a matter of time until Trump forms his Ministry of Misinformation. He's already hired Josef Goebbels, except he calls him Steve Bannon. Frankly, I have more respect for Kelly because she will not be intimidated by the Trump Reich. You know what Trump has said about women, and you know what he said about her when she tried to hold him accountable for it. And btw, don't bother to come back at me with the lame "you are deceiving yourself" arguments as they only waste your time and mine. If you have facts to share then please be my guest, but none of the blind allegiance please.

Sorry. I do not recall one issue response ever, although I could be wrong.

Yep....opposed Trump's character, etc...NEVER EVER SAID once I disagreed with all or any of his proposals. Actually sought clarification in many of them.

Sorry, you avoided issue conversation because I objected to the messenger. It appears nobody on here will discuss issues confronting the country until you pledge allegiance to the man.

EVERYONE has copied Josef Goebbels, he's the Godfather of propaganda. I'll bet he didn't commit suicide that day. I have doubts about Hitlers suicide too. He may have personally taught our people his techniques. Who REALLY knows?

His techniques are being used on you too...

If you think Hillary would be good for America, you ARE deceiving yourself.

I'll discuss issues...I'll discuss the economy...let's go, start a thread. But you have to be willing to open your mind and step outside the box they've so carefully built for your protection.

Oooo, Trump is real scary. I understand there is a college where you can go into their safe room and play with puppies until you are all better.

News flash: Trump won, so either get over it or not, but you have to live with it. Sorry for you, but not for me.

So it is OK if someone is sexually harassed by their boss! This was not by consent. If this occurred in any other major corporation there would be legal action. Law and order should only be enforced if it aligns with our political opinion?!?!
If this occurred to a family member would you have the courage to do the right thing? Apparently politics trumps law and order.

never happened




oh did U mean Bill Clinton

Some of what you say is true, however my take on it is this...

It is not a political forum with no discussions of any issues facing our country of which I see very little to none.

It is not a political forum when the majority of the posts and/or cartoons reflect simple and pure hate for skin color or religion.

It IS being used as a judgement on The Villages. Of that I assure you.

You cannot post some of these things without those feelings being in your heart. I see folks posting purely hate filled posts with absolutely very little to do with politics. Many of those folks I have seen posting here for years parading a character of compassion and love for all. One election with the words used and it appears either they were being phoney from the get go or those words completely changed their heart.

I learn NOTHING about current events on here ANYMORE I attempted to talk issues on economics, etc on here a number of times, supplied reading material to begin conversations, and was met with either silence or mockery. That does not make me a intelligent guy, but obviously not very smart in continuing that.

I never go away mad......just total disappointment with what people are obviously carrying around with them.

Since the election when I came on here and supported and hope for anything Trump does for the country, all I read is mean spirited and hateful responses.

NO....this has become a total and complete embarrassment to know that people like this actually live here...who think politics is about demeaning others. It IS NOT, I ASSURE YOU

I also disagree that it has not crept into our daily lives here in The Villages and when I read about the disgust you all have for the protests, I think of your supporters spitting on reporters, justifying it.....using total and absolute terrible 4 letter words at rallies, justifying it. That is NOT politics in anyway.

Dear Guest: In a general sense I understand and respect your points of view. However, there are other ways of looking at this forum.

Actually there are many posters who provide information concerning current events, etc and do not resort to nasty and negative banter.

Secondly those few posters that betray the moral and civic manner of the majority of village resident only draw judgment on themselves and not The villages. I say this because there are those non-contributing types on blogs all over this nation and the population as a whole is quite aware of their presence. Hence the ubiquitous of the TROLL

Third, some people seem to view changing a position as a bad thing. Indeed it can be but it also can be a good thing because he shows intellectual growth. We all are always learning and always growing.

Fourth by now most people have learned that those individuals that constantly spew hatred and negativity eventually self consume. It s unhealthy for body and mind to be so consumed in hate, anger etc. Most of us understand that mediation, pray, laughter, live let live, etc are ingredients for a happier and longer life.

Fifth in summary I refuse to let hateful, boastful know it all's affect my life. I can only be responsible for my feelings and emotions. Hence I can only be responsible for my actions . I choose to act in a responsible and positive and sharing manner. I recognize that I can be wrong at times but then I am also right at times. And the best part of this is that so too do the majority of posters such as yourself.

This forum in my humble opinion does provide valuable information, fellowship, laughter and my personal favorite an opportunity to witness the creative manner in which individual posters react and explain their thinking on a variety of subjects.

Don't give up on us we need and welcome your positive contribution .

Personal Best Regards:

What happened to the original topic.

Time to now continue. We have far fewer years ahead of us than we have behind us. Enjoy them. We have chosen to live in a beautiful, peaceful, well maintained place. Grab the time we have and suck the juice out of it.

I may actually have more years ahead of me than behind me...and I don't expect to spend any of them being nasty to anyone. Peace out..

Are you saying Megan Kelly is lying in what she is saying about President elect Trump ?

Or

Will you suggest a boycott of any and all journalists who do not say nice things about President elect Trump ?

Also, amazing how things said on that specific radio show suddenly have credibility

I think that it would be better to boycott Rachel Maddow.

Megyn is an opportunist phony. Instead of concentrating her program on the issues on the campaign that affect our lives it was constant personal attacks on Donald Trump. She was obscessed to the point of alienating a large portion of her viewers. Just view her Twitter account when she is on and it is hard to see a positive comment about Megyn. I was a fan for years but now I despise her particularly for calling Trump a sexual predator on several occasions with absolutely no proof. I hope her book flood, the people in The Villages can see through a phony.

It was clear that Megyn wanted to be the one to upset the election and be viewed as such particularly by the rabid femininists. It consumed her and I feel destroyed her image among those fans who rsievtef her as a journalist.

Megyn Kelley darling of Fox news until she exposes sexual harassment on the job. Suddenly, she becomes the enemy pf the people. Now all you little ladies out there sit down and shut up. If you don't, Donald will put you on his "enemies" list and you wont work again for the rest of your life. That First Amendment keeps getting in the way of real freedom in America. Where is Senator McCarthy and Roy Cohn now that you need them.

Not exactly. Her Fans deserted her after she started attacking Trump and never stopped. She was a lying coward. If can believe her story she said Ailes tried to kiss her on the lips of all places and she rebuffed him but did not say anything. In fact until she wrote her book after Ailes was gone she was praising him on a radio show. She likely slept her way to the top and when Aiken was attacked she jumped on the bandwagon. She is a coward and a liar.
