Question for Anti-Trump Democrats

[Audie]

OK. And...what?

Meanwhile, families are forced to go bankrupt because of medical bills due to an unexpected illness or injury.

We see a lot of what is or is taken to be incompetency
from every president, I suppose.

And they are all very constrained by circumstances,
many actions would be the same regardless of who
was president.

And as unable to fix problems as the last one.
Johnson was going to fix poverty, Nixon replaced
him and was gonna end the Vietnam war.
Wasnt that how it went?

Afghanistan was a terrible Neocon
mistake, but Obama kept it going.

Obviously. No one intentionally eats a **** sandwich (unless they mistook it for something else) and in fact would rather avoid doing so. But if they had to, they would eat as little as possible. Is this not logic?

Well, it seems you are the expert on this subject so I bow to your experience.

Nixon actually did end both the war & the draft.

Beat me to it. Not to mention the lowest unemployment rate for women and minorities in the history of keeping these records.

As a British citizen; you as a country would gain much more respect.. USA has gone down in respect massively since Trump became President.

Most Americans could hardly give a small order of fish and chips as to what the world thinks of the US. The beauty of being an American is that I don't really care what the rest of the world thinks.

I know, and that's very sad.

Not what he was remember for.

I wonder how often a president gets remembered for the good things they did. I suspect a lot of it depends on political bias.

Didn't really end the draft, but he did make it non-binding (of course, after it was too late to matter to me).

Musta been before I was born.

Did you know this about Nixon?

Maybe for you. I, like everyone else I know or have known, have never lost a minute's sleep over this. Who respects your country? With your seesaw politics over this Brexit thingy, you seem to have become the butt of many jokes.

Well, it still exists in that cisgender males must register, or face financial penalties.
But they stopped drafting us....just in the nick of time for me.

The analogy basically regards "voting for the lesser evil". If you and others believe that something so simple and basic requires a level of expertise then that would help explain how a bumbling buffoon like Trump got into power.

Oh yeah, Brexit is a disaster. Trump and Brexit are from the same source.

I'm not one to based my views on the people of a country based on their political leaders.

Plenty if one doesn't wear partisan blinders. Maybe use Google to verify.

Any proof that Donald Trump is directly responsible for the slight increase in hate crimes in the U.S.?

Are you going to attribute the rise in reported hate crimes to Trump supporters specifically?

Of prosecuted hate crimes in 2016 ~ %50 were whites while whites make up ~ %72 of the population, this means that the other ~%50 is being committed by ~%28 of non- white population which means that non whites are committing hate crimes at a disproportionate rate.

Is Trump making minorities commit more hate crime?

So the way to "make America great again" is to turn it into a pitiful joke that nobody takes seriously?

And really why should they? I doubt Botswana or
Spain or or or cares either.

The USA has been dealt the winning hand,
geopolitically. Best possible geographic
position, enormous resources-

The USA is going to be the dominant power
into the indefinite future, It is America's show,
not that of the European Uniion, or China, or
Russia.

Canada resents the overwhelming power of the
USA, and how they are pretty much ignored.

What might the USA actually do differently,
if it were somehow decided that it did matter
a whole lot what other countries think?

Good for you.

Who cares? The U.K. can't even figure out Brexit plus it was about the same as with Bush. Funny thing is that of the western European nations the U.K. seems to be warming up to him the most.

In college, someone wrote "Chink" on my dorm
door. In todays world, that would be reportable
as a hate crime.

Get it in the FBI data base.

If you could get a meter and hold it up to people
to test them for racism, get a numerical rating,
I do not think that the "white " people would
win the "most racist" contest. Not by far.
