I'm so sick of this stupid child-in-a-72-year-old-body. Resign and leave the United States, please. Leave all your money if you have any to charity. Let Melania divorce you and keep custody of Barron. Just go fucking disappear.

(37,468 posts)1- This is a partisan Democratic discussion board. What else are we going to discuss ?
2- I'm guessing well over 99% of us are going to vote in the mid-terms. I sure am. We'll vote Democratic. The lurkers, who knows.
3- I'm guessing a substantial minority or even a majority of us are going to knock on doors, make phone calls, etc.
4- This moronic tweet by Trump does not depress my voting. It definitely stimulates my voting. I think the vast majority of others here are the same.
President Obama's comments were directed at young people who do absolutely nothing and don't even vote. This board is populated, mostly, by people 30 and over, and more heavily over 40.
ok I'm done here.

(3,479 posts)Winning the election isn't like winning a super bowl or a prizefight. In politics, you're judged as a winner or loser based on what you do AFTER the election.
GWB served two terms as POTUS. His presidency is widely viewed as a massive failure, arguably the worst in history...and Trump is on a trajectory to do even worse. He has already proven to be the least fit person ever to hold the job as CiC.

Truth is, many in media didn't want to deal with the idea that a huge chunk of Trump supporters were suburban reactionaries or that they could possibly be inherently malicious.
Recently posted this in the HRC group, it's surreal to read the articles then. https://www.democraticunderground.com/1107180183

(86 posts)I saw on multiple boards people loving that he owned the libs. Nothing about how these tweets are unbecoming of a CEO, let alone the POTUS, but I guess Presidential diplomacy is no longer a requirement. Someday, our grandchildren are going to look at these tweets and ask was that really the POTUS and 40% of the voters approved of this?
Evidently nothing matters and no one cares as Paul Ryan seems like the high school senior who's just hanging on til graduation and McConnell is still waiting for the repeal of Obamacare.
