NOTE: Poll modified due to input received. Sorry but you have to revote if you wish to participate.
Tech's response to my question got me thinking this might be an interesting topic for a poll.

This prompts me to wonder: Why do we on this board, a microcosm of the US, see the same facts/situation and come to such different conclusions? We seem to be smart, we seem to be relatively respectful of each other (not quite like the bigger country), and we seem to want what will be best for our children/grandkids/friends. What the hell is the primary issue? I am bumfuzzled!

The primary issue is the Marxist media spewing propaganda 24/7. If all you knew was what you read in the NY Times, the Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and NBC, you would believe that Trump is the reincarnation of Hitler. Of course this assumes that you can't think for yourself. If you do, you will eventually realize that they keep changing their indictments of him on a nearly daily basis. He's ineffective because he lets the cities burn. No, wait, he's Hitler because he sends federal officers to stop rioters from torching a federal building. Well, which is it? Either or both at the same time, depending on which they think will hurt him and his supporters. So anyone who can think for himself will realize the Marxist media are frauds and stop listening to them.
