    I may be disliked for this. Have any of you, like me, asked yourself critically, whether the constant media and internet barrage demeaning Trump has worn upon your mind to the point that some of it might be more easily believable, than to continue on ahead grimacing and aggravated by it? After reviewing that thought, it struck me that is precisely the aim of it. Not subtle, but instead forceful impressionistic pressure exerted constantly, which also has roots in the aim of inflaming further those agreeing with it, submitting to it.

    Maybe he did tell lies, maybe he did do things sounding rather perverse, maybe illegal goings-on did happen.....maybe those allegations did make him less suitable to be President.

    The "State of America" is actually pretty good right now. Might they be even better if the allegations were false?

    I am not a Republican and I don't care for Donald Trump, the man. I was as surprised as anyone when he won the election and I have been disgusted many times over by his stupid "tweets". (And I'm not even on Twitter. :rolleyes:) I just wish he'd conduct himself in a more presidential manner; he sometimes seems like his own worst enemy. How hard can it be to stop behaving like a 5th grader with the name calling, etc.

    That said, the constant barrage of anti-Trump propaganda by the MSM has only strengthened my resolve as a conservative. I will vote for him in 2020 no matter who runs against him. I feel that Trump really does care about the future of this country and I agree with him on trade, immigration, and so many important issues.

    What concerns me most is the outright suppression of conservative thoughts and voices. What has happened to objective reporting around the world?? I believe the old standard, "let he who is without sin cast the first stone." As we are barraged with every sordid detail of people's lives, we would be hard-pressed to find a candidate who had nothing damning or embarrassing in their past. I'd like to see focus on solving the problems of the country, and moving ahead.

    Not sure if my blather answered your question, Frank. But be assured that you will not "be disliked." :D

    Its the same over here Frank, best to ignore the media they are truly sickening

    Edit - having said that, some people give the media ammunition don't they
    One example is Mr. Farage, non ability to think before speak, non ability to think ….

    Freedom of speech has been, and remains under attack, and nobody seems to notice or care. We have to kill political correctness, and bury it in an unmarked grave!

    @Beth Gallagher
    I shall not accept self-denigration from one as important to the forum as you are. That aside, we share parallel trains of thought on many issues. Some not so much. It's a good thing!

    Truthfully, the world around me is so unrecognizable to the one I thought was somewhat normal, until nothing anyone could do would surprise me.
    I like the old country song:
    God is good
    Beer is great
    and People are crazy

    This wraps up my whole philosophy on life.
    Other than the beer.
    I can no longer drink it, but I enjoyed enough of it in my early years to last me. :)

    Can't get away with that without incurring the wrath of the weird, the sublimates, the T-Gs, and on and on.......

    That's the reason it has to be done!
