Have you thought of getting help? You certainly need it!
OFF TOPIC........ and personal attacks , insults are against ROC.

Come on you know better than that.

Trump's political and life inspiration:


Ya know. Gopher, personally I could care less about his affection for Putin and Kim. There is something very weird about that.......and certainly NOT "American".......

What matters to me is how he abuses all his allies and former American friends. THAT is a major concern. His abuse is that of an autocrat.

It is interesting that the Americans accept this behavior and biases as the norm now. Wonder if Trump plans to make america a one party system. Everything he condemns is liberal, democratic, free thinking, etc. That could be a problem. The way he is creating unrest in allies etc.......is troubling......as it suggests a plan ..

People who don't agree with him are fired, degraded, shamed , belittled while his attitude to the media ...... (being an enemy of the people..... is very authoritarian......dictator like ) He ALONE has changed America and its place on the world.. He is trying to destroy everything he hates, ..... and by removingthe US from someo f the international agencies...... he is weakening them.....He knows this.

Divide and conquer?? Isn't that what Putin does?? Perhaps it is not so much Putin.......but the POWER he has and HOW he uses it. He has no regard for how western leaders handle power and lead their countries.

Thoughts??

Is pointing out that someone needs help a personal attack? You and Cliffy APPEAR to be letting your entire lives to be taken over by what you see as the negative side of everything. Do you realize that approximately 50% of what seems bad turns out for the best?

Well then why not present your vies about the topic that are counter to mine?? I like to read well appointed opposing views. Or present information that presents the opposite side . But talking ABOUT a poster is not acceptable. Sorry it just isn't. If you have a problem with a poster....Send them a private message.& deal with them directly...OR put them on IGNORE STATUS. .

I don't have any problems with any posters! The ones I did seem to have disappeared. :) When I seem abusive it's usually in response to abuse. (Fight fire with fire) I was merely pointing out that you and Cliffy appear to have problems with Trump. He can be crude, rude and lewd, but I tend to ignore that stuff. I'm more interested in seeing WHAT he DOES. A lot of people jump to conclusions. A couple of weeks ago most people were pleased how he handled Kim Jung Un, which I saw as a good thing. Then in a few days people are starting to find fault with it. Kim is Kim, a sarcastic supercilious little Pr!ck, his persona isn't likely to change, but he MIGHT start to behave, mainly out of fear. That would be good. Now I've explained to you how I tick and what kind of critter I am so I hope I've cleared up any misunderstanding. Have a Happy Canada Day. :) :)

Republican Michael Cloud wins a Texas special election to replace a GOP congressman who resigned amid sexual harassment claims

Cloud will become the newest member of the House, the Associated Press projected. He finished at the top of a crowded field that fought to represent the 27th District, a heavily conservative area along the Gulf Coast. He will serve out the remainder of Blake Farenthold's term, which expires in early January.

Oh dear. Reminds me of the old TV show McCloud.

Yup, I'm that old.

While all this is true, he has also alienated many conservative Republicans such as George Will and the now deceased Charles Krauthammer, outraged Laura Bush for separating immigrant children from their families, and caused several Republican pols to retire because they feel he is misdirecting the USA. Thus, much of the harm he is causing is to his own party. The next step is for the Dems to take advantage of his stupidity. We shall see what happens next.

I have a feeling the asshole is going to revoke the tariffs in a day or two!

No, Trump seems pretty adamant inspite of the reality of the situation. His GOP are all free traders and Trump is free-wheeling without them.

The Koch brothers will eventually stop Trump. Hopefully, they do it before all of North America slips into recession.

And yet, somehow they beat the smartest, most qualified woman in the world for POTUS; stoopid Russians.

No, that's "evil" Russians, Walter.
