    Lol, if the idiots haven't realized the truth behind the Trumpster Fire then we've got WAY bigger problems than political grandstanding like yours.

    I've said it before, I understand why people voted for Trump but at this point it is clear he is terrible in almost every conceivable way. The only remaining reason to like Trump is if you're so full of hate that you just loooove his trolling the US.

    He's no worse than any other US president I've seen.

        Obama: Swindled everybody and delivered only worse than what we already had (Middle East, healthcare etc.). Where was the "Hope and Change"?
        W. Bush: Patriot Act. Iraq.
        I'm too young to remember anything about Clinton other than that he got a blowjob.

          Clinton got a blowjob, and was really popular because he seemed like the sort of guy you could have a beer with.

          George Bush I was an old school conservative, in that born to rule fashion.

          Ronald Reagan spent the last 2 years of his presidency incapacitated by Altzheier's. His wife ruled the country with help from her astrologer.

          You're welcome.

            Aside from the BJ, Bill also gave us unfair free trade agreements, the largest prison system in the world, and made it a policy decision to not regulate Credit Default Swaps which set the stage for enormous corporate give-aways a decade later.
