Why in the name of all that is good would a Democrat throw a drowning Trump a lifeline?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

He called our beloved former president a "sick guy" and suggested he was an illegal alien, called our presidential nominee "crooked" and said she should be "locked up", and called our Senate Minority leader a "clown".

He has made life miserable for Mexicans and American Muslims.


He is doing his best to undo President Obama's legislation.


If Trump needs succor let him go to Michael Cernovich, Roger Stone, or the Dilbert comic guy.

1. Who?

3. Calling out individual members is a violation of DU rules and it's also wrong.

I would prefer those people do some serious reflection.

5. I thot you meant a politician, not a DUer, sorry

9. He has invited some Democrats to the White House. I have no problem with them going

He has invited some Democrats to the White House. I have no problem with them going. Doing unpleasant things is part of being an adult. If they refuse to go they will cede the moral high ground. However he is drowning of his own accord. Let his Deplorable pals give him a lifeline.

13. hear, hear...

They did, afterall go, when Obama sent for them and they then refused to vote for whatever it was that they discussed . So turn aroud is fair play, right?

14. If the president invites you to the White House you have to go. Call it a ceremonial nicety.

But he has done nothing to show he respects us, our leaders, or cares about the things we care about.

Let his Deplorable pals save him.

8. Gotcha!

I thought you were referring to a Dem politician! I needed to know!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

12. They really need to think this through...

Look at what he did to Al Gore.

[tallahasseedem]

10. I totally agree...

unfortunately some can slip through the cracks here.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

11. Look at poor Al Gore. He met with Donald and Ivanka

Now Trump is undoing all of President Obama's environmental regulations.

2. Drowning people have been known to take others with them. n/t

6. Trump's approach to negotiation is to dominate his negotiating partner.

The best negotiations result in all the parties believing they have accomplished something.

15. A good question

I am heartened by all our Dems standing up and fighting.

16. Perception is everything.

We can look like we are meeting halfway. Doesn't mean we are there to give him a lifeline. Maybe we're there to push him under.

17. Because it has an anvil tied to the other end?

Only reason I can think of.
