It was my middle finger vote. I didn’t / don’t know a thing about Gary Johnson. I wasn’t going to vote for either of the two awful major party candidates. Haven’t regretted it for a second.

I understand the sentiment.  My middle finger vote for Trump was a vote against the far right and the far left.  Trump is a moderate Republican, much like Bill was a moderate Democrat.  I voted for Bill in his re-election bid.  Interestingly enough, Bill and Trump are VERY similar as presidents.  Proof that the media just doesn't like Republicans, for the only reason that they are Republicans.

Well, he was a Democrat for the majority of his life, so that makes sense that he's like that as a person... that said, the media was is full force on attacking him well before he came into office and before he even won the primary.

• They attacked him for being misogynistic and mistreating women... while they supported Bill, who actually had allegations against him for sexual assault (see Paula Jones).
• They defended him for the Lewisky incident (while in office), but trashed Trump for Daniels (a decade ago).
• They called Trump racist for wanting a wall... while Bill, Obama, and Hillary made the same claims years before... ON TOP OF THAT, the Clinton's have a direct tie to the KKK - yet, nothing.
• They called Trump anti-semitic, while it's clearly obvious that he isn't.
• They called him a Nazi, homophobic, etc, when he clearly isn't.
• We know for a fact that there were incidents of people lying about being attacked, because of Trump, i.e, physical attacks, swastika's spray painted, et al, that were promoted by the media as being true.
• Now... they're killing him because of the national emergency (that he didn't even do), but supported Obama doing it.

If you don't see that, then you don't want to and choose to stay blind.

I’m not saying the media hasn’t been unfair or biased against him. I’m saying it’s hard for me to figure out to what degree they’re being biased against Trump because he’s a Republican / DC outsider versus giving him shiit because he’s an ass clown. It’s not every day we get a President who spends his days bickering with the horsefaced hooker he paid for sex on Twitter - we are sort of in uncharted waters here. Doesn’t help that so many Trump supporters have such a victim complex and see unfairness in every criticism.

I'm saying it is easy to figure it out because the attacks came during the primaries and before he was really saying stupid crap.  The very night that Trump said for the first time that we needed a wall at the US/Mexico boarder, the media was calling him xenophobic and racist because he hated Mexicans!  I remember the only thing that Obama ever said that I agreed with was when he said we needed to build a wall.  He never backed off of that and the media never called him out on that... UNTIL Trump said it.  That's all you need to know.

 

Again, you keep going to this and I keep calling your B.S. on it.  Trump supporters aren't claiming to be victims, they're calling out the media and Leftist hypocrisy.  As I just said in the paragraph here.  The media and Dems were fine when both Clinton's and Obama wanted a wall, but the shiit hit the fan as soon as Trump wanted it.  Also, you won't find a single Republican who complained about either Clinton or Obama wanting the wall.

Yes, this is obvious to anyone with an open mind.  I am a very moderate conservative and I can see it plain as day.  I don't like Donald Trump the person, but I like his policies.  If he did shut up, it might help, but I doubt it.  As stated, the hate came against him from day he entered the primaries.  Even if he were more political and presidential, there's no way the media would have let up on him.  It's obvious because they trashed Reagan and both Bush's all the time too.  I applaud Trump for calling out the MSM as fake.  It's about time they got called out for what they are.

Had Trump called for strategic barriers in places along the border he wouldn’t get nearly as much grief. He called for a 35-foot continuous (with the exception of natural barriers) concrete wall. That’s not the same thing, and you and Trump both know it.

So there’s no difference between what Obungler proposed and Trump’s plan and we’re all supposed to just know when Donald is talking out his ass? Isn’t he still walking around saying he wants a 1,000-mile 35-foot wall or did he walk that back like the big check Mexico is going to cut us?

They both proposed a wall, Trump was just more specific.  Look, if you want politicians who will keep you in the dark, then by all means vote and encourage others, to vote democrat.  If him being specific about what kind of wall he wants or was talking about is "talking out his ass", then the problem is yours, because a sane person would say, "let's discuss this and figure out what really is the best course of action."  But no, the democrats first response was that Trump was racist and xenophobic.  Instead of saying something to the affect of "Let's talk with border patrol and homeland security and see what they think", they just to name calling.  Again, this is during the primaries, not after he became President.  When the media keeps harping on those things and calling him names, i.e., bullying (another sign of their hypocrisy), then people think he's always "talking out of his ass".

 

That's a YOU problem, not a Trump problem.  It's why he's going to get re-elected whether you like it or not.

Considering that Obama didn't actually state what he was talking about, I don't think you can make that claim.  Now, if you want to go back to before he ran when he said "fence", well then there's no discussion because he's an idiot if he thinks a "fence" will work.  That's the truest definition of "waste of money".
