I would've fired Hilary for breaking the trust that is needed to effectively govern and function as one body. If I was the owner of the 4T, I would have subjected you to the same rules and standards as everyone else. I would not have allowed a group of knee jerk liberals to take it over and destroy the integrity of the forum. I've fired a lot of people for various reasons. I've fired lazy people preferred to screw around more than work. I've fired trouble makers. I've fired people for doing stupid things like repeating the same mistakes. I've fired people for breaking common sense rules like no stealing or no use company assets/property for the benefit of oneself. I've fired whites, blacks and Hispanics. I've fired family members and friends. I've fired business partners. I've fired men and women. I judge people the same regardless of their race or gender. Does Trump really want to be President? Does Trump really want to deal with all the petty liberal/conservative bullshit that has been plaguing America? Don't know but we are going to find out soon enough.
But you would never be a Democrat. You think mainstream opinions among Democrats are extreme positions, when it is your positions that represent extremist Republicans. You would be no more likely than Ted Cruz to be a Democrat (even though your social/cultural views are not quite as right-wing as his).
Sounds like you have fired a lot of people. I don't quarrel with your reasons, but notice that Trump wants to fire people just because they are of a different group than him.
I don't get that one; FDR wouldn't be a Democrat today? He'd be all in favor of weakening his own programs, like Social Security? I'm amazed you can psycho-analyze liberal Democratic attitudes so clearly that you can attribute them to Democrats today but not Democrats yesterday. So what was FDR's "attitude" when he "welcomed" the hatred of the wealthy and powerful critics of his programs? And how is that less of an "attitude" than what Bernie or Hillary say? Say what, now?
We'll keep our sleeves rolled up, no thank you very much. No thank you, government by organized money!
Hey, if we have better ideas than you do, why shouldn't we say so? I know you want to go backward to harsher times, and legislate that into reality by repealing what FDR and LBJ passed. But you think real Democrats support that? No, you can't make your vision of Democrats over into a new Republican image; sorry, that wouldn't work even on a makeover TV show. That's like calling the color blue "red" and hoping we are all colorblind.
