    Ridiculously liberal views on here unfortunately. Thankfully the US has a high percentage of conservative voters that will power the president to 4 more years.

    Remember you said this;
    I don't like Trump anymore than the majority of people here but surely the democrat's can find someone better than a guy suffering from early state dementia to oppose him

    It's terribly sad to see.

    in the politics forum? Now you're apparently thankful that Trump could win.

    The mask slipped pretty quickly over in the politics forum. If you're as disingenuous as you are about something as basic as this, why should we take seriously anything you say at all?

    So obviously you are equally worried about Trump's incoherent response to a simple question like "What are your priorities for a second term"?

    Good response from the president. Funny how the liberals told us he'd start WW3 though isn't it :pac: They weren't happy when he binned Bolton

    By what metric is that a "good response"? He was asked a fairly simple question regarding his plans/policies for the next 4 years, if he won.

    And that was his answer.

    Please explain why that is a "good response"?

    you think that is a good answer? decipher it for us then. what are trumps priorities for this second term based on that reply?

    Good response from the president.

    So from his answer, perhaps you can derive what's at stake and what his priorities are?

    You said that it's a good response. If it is, it should at a minimum answer the question posed.

    This isn't about Trump for you is it?

    It's the sheer disgust you feel at the thought of any 'Liberal' being happy at the outcome of the election.

    You're not motivated by what impresses you or what you think is needed, you're motivated by your hatred for others. It's a common trait, amongst his fan base, you're not alone at least.

    How?

    People suggest that Biden would go off on tangents , yet you describe this as a "good response" when it has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the question he was responding to

    The question he was asked was "What are your priorities for the next 4 years?"

    Please explain how what he said in any way shape or form answers that question?

    That is a terrible response. From his answer you would never be able to guess the question that was asked.

    Strange how so many of your posts focus on liberals so.

    Can you give some examples of why you think Trump is a great President.

    Based on what metric? What Trump actually done himself in the last 3.5 years to fullfil his election promises? Or failing that what has he actually done to make him a great president?

    For clarity, I think he's a failure as a human being, a businessman and a politician/president. Also trends which existed prior to him being elected are not his achievements, so it's literally what has he himself done in the last 3.5 years.

    He makes them feel good. That's the only metric that matters to them. Not the economy, jobs, other people or even the lives of Americans. They get that special feeling of being validated and getting one over the libtards.

    He has continued to appoint conservative judges at a record pace.

    He ordered the operation that killed Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

    He delivered the biggest blow to Planned Parenthood in three decades.

    His tariff threats forced Mexico to crack down on illegal immigration

    His “maximum pressure” campaign is crippling Iran.

    He stood with the people of Hong Kong.

    He has got NATO allies to cough up more money for America's collective security.

    He implemented tighter work requirements for food stamps.

    Unemployment was at record lows before the China virus. Last year the number of job openings outnumbered the unemployed workers to fill them by the widest gap ever; wages where rising, and low-wage workers are experiencing the fastest pay increases. Fifty-seven percent of Americans said they where better off financially since Trump took office.

    There is plenty of other positives Trump has brought to the table.

    These fcukwits believe your a liberal if you don't keep slaves or that law enforcement should execute whomever they feel, or that separating a 3yr old child from their parent for the guts of a year and keeping them in a prison is wrong. Its quite a low bar to be labelled liberal but that's how shamelessly stupid you have to be, to be on board.

    can you translate that into a coherent answer for me, i'm a bit slow

    Trump claimed today that New Zealand is experiencing a surge of cases and he doesn't want to see that happening in the US. New Zealand had 9 new cases today and last recorded a Covid-19 death in May. Meanwhile the US has 40k new cases and 600 deaths today! Absolutely deluded and clearly unstable but according to Trump sycophants it's Biden who has "health problems".

    The nonsense he spouts....ffs

    His "hair" is extremely distracting lol

    So it turns out you're a liar. Previously you claimed you didn't like Trump, now you says he's a great president.

    What we can get from this is that you can't be trusted.

    He stood with the people of Hong Kong.
    Trump eventually started applying pressure over Hong Kong as it suited him politically to go after China. Look at the stories in 2019 from when the protests were at their height; Trump doesn't give a **** about the people of Hong Kong.

    “We have to stand with Hong Kong, but I’m also standing with President Xi. He’s a friend of mine,

    Because it's nothing more than propaganda and nonsense to please the white fragility brigade.

    Don't you regularly drop in and make claims and never address the refutations? Eg claiming people dying was voter fraud and accusing posters of alarmism. Don't think you can accuse others of making poor points tbh.

    No. I drop in occasionally to make a post and then leave when anything I say that isn't a grossly exaggerated condemnation of trump is met with tonnes of replies saying 'defend this other thing' 'snarky remark about pussy grabbing' 'but trump is worse (in response to any criticism of Joe Biden). Its hard enough to dedicate much time to this thread when you're starting off on the back foot of posters constantly biased against trump and any conversation gets wildly dragged into the gutter by posters who would hate anything Donald trump does. They don't want to deal with the issue at hand, they just want to compound everything into posting anything they don't like about trump.

    That's not really true, you invariably make a claim and never address it. Eg accusing a poster of alarmism which was addressed by loads of people. Also the electoral fraud that isn't remotely backed up by reality. Plenty of posters engage in considered discussions for the record.
