It isn't like someone didn't tell him that targeting the destruction of cultural sites was a war crime.

I mean, if we are into throwing around opinions and all. I guess I'll just stay in the deplorable court.

Wait a while. There always time to call them deplorable later.
Some folks support Trump, but detest his rhetoric and antics.
Other Trump supporters (see rallies, see threads on this Board) embrace the rhetoric and delight in Trump’s smack talking and texting antics.
Eugene Robinson’s piece is spot on.
Own your vote America.
Can you give an example of someone who does not own their vote? What is a first indicator that would give you the impression that someone does not "own their vote."
Meaning don’t play dumb when he threatens to bomb Iranian cultural sites or when he engages in other reckless and illegal conduct. You voted for it.
Meaning when things go south (and they will), accept the fact that you voted for things to go south.
Option #1: Continue to deny deny deny reality and ride the USS Trump into the rocks. See the entire GOP leadership.
Option #2: Renounce your support and vote his ass out of office. That is, own your conscience and take back your country from the Mad King.
Your description of what you mean is pretty insane. I now know that when you say, "Own your vote!" you are really saying, "I am so insanely frustrated that Hillary lost!...and I want other people to be frustrated, too!!!"

the discussion. Try discussing issues instead of just attacking those that you find irrational. I’ve been fairly honest that I don’t necessarily like most of what Trump does in terms of his manner and speech with almost everyone that opposes him. At the same time I do agree with most of his policies. If you have TDS you can’t ever acknowledge his successes even if you despise the man. That is my point.
As to Health Care? Climate Change? Sustainability? Energy?
As to how America leads the globe in tomorrow’s technological advances?
As to protecting America’s elections?
He has no fookin policies.
In regard to foreign wars that have gone on for almost 20 years, he wants all troops home from Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and probably most NATO countries. But he's getting push back from the General's and Pentagon and advisors like John Bolton (read Neo Cons) who pushed to hard to keep the status quo. These guys never met a war they didn't like.
In regard to healthcare, like most repeal and replace Republican's they don't have a complete program. Allowing insurance companies the ability to write policies outside of states, and allowing small employers to gather together as groups across industries and state lines would be a start but they can't even get that done. However, Trump is pushing hard to lower drug prices.
While he's used the term hoax. I believe, he would likely acknowledge climate change but also knows that it will be costly to the American economy. I believe the climate is changing as it has for millennium. But how much is our responsibility? I live in Florida. Can't dig a hole without hitting seashells. That's because at one time Florida was essentially a coral reef totally under water. Did humans cause that? So if sea levels rise 2 inches over the next 100 years it may mean the earth is returning to norm.
Energy is a successful Trump initiative for America. We had the Iranians attack the world's largest refinery in Saudi Arabia, shoot down our drone, take oil tankers and the US killed Salami. Oil markets rose a modest $10 - $15 per barrel. Years ago it would be over $100 per barrel. That's why Bush and Obama never messed with Iran. They didn't want gasoline in the US back over $4 per gallon. Now with our new energy independence we can tell them to fuck off. And business in America thrives since energy prices are stable and low.
In regard to elections. How many Russians voted in Michigan, PA and Wisc? None. How many of those votes were influenced by Russia. None. If your going to bitch at anybody that hurt HRC try Comey who is now a Democrat hero. But he may have cost her thousands of votes.
That is all.
China is truly the only threat and that's because they continue to steal our technology. Trump is trying to stop that.
knows? It’s under development. He’s not a politician so he pretty much flying by the seat of his pants. It drives everyone crazy. But it also confuses our enemies.
their Obama Square Statue. What other cultural sites do they even have?

....or Mt Rushmore, or ND stadium? We would go nuts. Rally round whoever was in charge. Kill the enemy.
I can’t believe we’d actually bomb such sites. It’s just more White House bloviating.
Thats ok, right? These are decent people over there that deserve our respect.

They (and Hezbollah) have ruled out attacks on civilians in response to the assassination.
That is both good strategy and signs that they are hardly barbarians.
You believe them when they say that? They're fucking terrorists, man! I'm beginning to wonder whose side you're on.
Can't you tell how great things are for Chris? Better than ever! Better than ever in human history!

On the one hand, I can't get over the fact that an evil son of a bitch who needed to die, died.
On the other hand, I want to withdraw from the ME...and yet, I'm not sure they will let us withdraw. Bush ran on disengagement, and al Qaeda still came after us on 9/11.
When they send rocket attacks into Israel they know there will be no collateral damage? Like children, women, innocent civilians just trying to live their daily lives. Please tell me you are not seriously defending these assholes.
The Iranian regime is brutal and awful.
But it is also a pretty rational actor in foreign policy.
That doesn’t mean we have to like what it does.
I know it is comforting to see the world in black & white...but reality is gray.
your friends in Hamas.
I doubt he can disprove this charge, too.
Actually, scratch that, it's likely unwittingly.

We'd probably drone strike one of their Generals.

We will likely survive him without major damage.
Likely, but not definitely.
fall for it every time. Like holding the G7 at Doral in Miami.
