    No...that is not was is being said. Of course people are going to cheer at political rallies.

    But people buying into a demagogue like Donald Trump...are a problem.

    People like you...ARE a problem.

    Yeah...I guess so.

    As for your seeing no resemblance...I understand.

    None of the people in that first picture would have either.



    We are screwed.
    I see you haven't commented on the pic I posted.
    What about them? Are they a threat like Hitler?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Those of us who oppose and are horrified that Donald Trump is our president...those of us who actively oppose him…HAVE LOST.

    The people who helped Donald Trump to win the presidency; the people continuing to support him; and the people NOT actively opposing him…

    …HAVE WON.

    Adolf Hitler came to power legally. Donald Trump also came to power legally.

    It now appears as though the fools who support him have sealed the fate of our nation. My guess is that anyone (including Donald Trump) on trial for crimes committed in support of his candidacy or in support of his administration…will NEVER be found guilty. There will always be at least one rabid individual on each jury like one of these people here who refuses to see the problem…probably several. After several hung juries…the prosecutors will give up even trying.

    Hitler…oops, I mean Trump…will almost certainly prevail. He’ll manage to obtain an enabling act of some sort…and become dictator.

    I imagine for the rabble fawning before him…it will be a glorious time.









    Unfortunately, the reckoning will come. It always does. That will not be so glorious.





    WRONG




    have faith in this system and the people


    trump and Putin are going down and taking their friends with them


    they cant win

    the people will fill the streets

    Like I said before Frank, it might do you well to take a break from these political forums.

    Wow...250 years!

    Rome was still young at 250 years of age.

    So was Egypt.

    Anyway...what we are doing to the Republic entrusted to us...is an abomination.

    And the American right is the primary culprit.

    I'd hate to see you become as demented as the above poster.

    Cheer or don't cheer at a sporting event.

    It has nothing to do with what is being said here.

    NO. They are not.

    They are people who see the threat Donald Trump poses.

    I thought that was self-evident.

    Okay...I hope you are right and I am dead wrong.

    But when the trials come...and they WILL come...and you see mistrials and hung juries...

    ...recognize that the worst is still to come.

    I still hope your are right...and I am wrong.

    Trump won't be the end of this country, Frank. We've had worse presidents, they just didn't have twitter to prove it.

    I doubt we've actually had worse.

    I am convinced Trump is the bottom.

    I didn't know I was on a "side". How about in English and not tribalism. You're claiming we are all about to die. So I don't understand if i say we will live? Then F you for disrespecting my daughter
