If my local newspaper is any measure, all the 90+ generation is outraged and at a loss about what to do. They're most shocked by the young who cheer for the swamp monster, yet will have to live in the swamp for the rest of their lives, or so they fear.
The swamp monster? Is that Trump? One wonders how he won the last election.
You leftists must be thrilled to see all the anti-Trump protests today in London, and especially thrilled at the baby Trump balloon. Trump has been avoiding them by using his Marine 1 helicopter to move around, rather than traveling by auto, which would allow protesters to target him. I saw al-Jazeera show a shot of the helicopter traveling across the screen, and the so-called news reporter said, "Trump has brought his own military threat to London." It's always fun and educational to hear what the leftists have to say.
It's totally baffling to me that anyone with a functioning brain can support Trump's actions on any level. If "a method to his madness" could be seen to work on some level -- any level will do -- then maybe, just maybe he might be forgiven for being a monumental putz. So far, there is no evidence that this is the case, and plenty of evidence that he is pushing the world toward chaos. Of course, you've always lobbied for yet one more crisis war, so that may be your reason for backing him. If so, it's a piss poor reason, in my opinion.
Then again, you may be one of those who believe that infuriating liberals is a good enough reason in and of itself. Keep in mind: paybacks tend to be very dramatic and often long lasting.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
