Just for those who can't see the forest for the trees

Okay, keep in mind that I am a lifelong democrat who first voted for Hubert Humphrey. Now I’m going to make the plea to anyone who will listen that we please stop giving Rump everything he wants. Free publicity, credit for being a tax cheat and getting away with it, going down in infamy for attempting to overthrow the government, you name it he will take credit for it. Why not, it’s worked great for him so far. I have read countless articles recently regarding his tax returns, which show as we have always known, that he isn’t rich, he loses money on everything but still lives like a king and never pays taxes. Then, even in a presidential debate claims that’s because he’s smart. And you seriously wonder why this duck dynasty reject has the support of nearly half the country? The only thing missing is for him to sell himself as the poor underdog that the media treats so badly. Then he will be just like the all star wrestler who gets beaten up by the hamburger man only to come back and miraculously win in the end. Please don’t let that happen! Saturday Night Live already elected him once. Let’s learn from those mistakes!

afternoon wasn't a bad thing. Everyone knows he's a crook. Then I remember I posted more Trump links to his nuttiness than anyone else at DU. Who knows maybe proof Trump is a terrible businessman will touch the minds of MAGAs, finally.

I respect your opinion but can well understand why there are so many post regarding that man and how he has hurt us all through his policies, actions/inactions, words and deeds.
