What has Trump shown us, other than a deranged, sadistic, uninformed showman? I can understand not agreeing with Obama's efforts to help the downtrodden. Conservatives are generally opposed to Christian values. But Trump takes the opposition to a whole new, ridiculous level.stuper1 wrote:And yet the talk of impeachment continues unabated. The nation's so-called elite just can't get over the fact that somebody like Trump won the election. Frankly, I can't believe it either. It seems utterly surreal. And I'm one to believe he's not a monster, just another run-of-the-mill egomaniac, as I'm convinced anyone who would want to be president must be.
I was looking at an acquaintance's Facebook feed the other day. He's a very successful local businessman and apparently not a Trump hater. He has a big family and is not at all deranged. Back around the election time in 2016, he posted something which I found very interesting and read along these lines:
"To all the people out there who supported Obama and hate Trump, I have one question: what it is in Obama's life experience compared to Trump's life experience that makes you think that Obama was so much better qualified to be president than Trump?"
Obama:
-death by drone program
-Paying Iran $2b to keep making nukes
-Abortion supporter (that's pretty sadistic, we can probably all agree)
-Allowed Isis to grow and thrive (probably created Isis with the help of the Neo-cons but that's conspiratorial).... don't hear much about them anymore. Took Trump about 6 weeks to squash that.
-Supported the Muslim Brotherhood in the Arab Spring
Trump:
-Tweeted mean stuff to Rosie O'Donnell and Bob Mueller
