He's also confirming for anyone with any doubt that no competent businessperson regards drumpf as a competent businessperson, and that drumpf is a liar and fraud. If I tell you that, sure, be dismissive. When Mitt Romney says that, you, and by you I mean you and a lot of people, need to take that more seriously.

Today, Doc defended Mitt Romney. Good day already.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about the question of support coming up last night in the debate is that it seemed to me none of the others were prepared for the question. It really seemed to catch them all off guard.

Yeah, let's have that here.

One key point is how the left wing there prefers to keep voters poor and dependent. Good thing that would never happen here.

I was given the same example the other day
Despite the bogus elections I wonder if they can tell the difference between democratic socialism and totalitarian socialism

I get your reaction because his posts in here are so removed from reality but he absolutely believes it and there are many people out there like him. And somehow his opinions aren't even the worst in this thread. Moreover, this is probably one of the saner political subforums on a sports message board anywhere on the internet

The last time the liberals shut down the voices of ordinary Americans, they got Reagan in response. I was one of those young and neither left-nor-right people at the time - confused and frustrated that no one was speaking up for the America in which I was raised and its values. Standing up to overpaid postal workers and then stomping on pissant countries that dared to defy us - that was red meat, baby.

Today you may have Fox News and Am yak radio, but you have an overwhelming PC police force in politics and the media. Here is what's in the mind of Trump voters:

* A cop shoots a black guy. Used to be, OK, a criminal got shot. Now #BLM and the cop is a criminal and you're a racist if you challenge that.

* A freak starts wearing dresses and calling himself a lady. Used to be, ha-ha what a freak. Now (s)he is brave and noble and Woman Of The Year. You're intolerant and bigoted if you don't embrace her wonder.

* Overwhelmingly, modern terrorism is Islamist. But if you dare whisper that or fret about how we vet Muslim immigrants, you're a racist.

Finally along comes a guy who says what you're thinking.

Trump is enabled because the PC police have shouted down every other politician, professor, pundit, and public figure. You could have had reasoned discussion, but you closed it off. So now you get the crass version.

Lemme guess, you find what's "it" today to be weird and scary.
