    There is a lot of Trump bashing going on on the internent and I find it good, as well as needed, for someone with an opposing point of view to come out and say that I actually like Donald Trump and, as it stands now, I would vote for him again.

    One of the reasons I like Donald Trump as my president, is well first off I am a conservative and I agree with him on most if not all the issues. I agree that illegal immigration is a problem that needs to be solved and that illegal immigrants are unfairly taking jobs, opportunities, and money away from our society that could actually go to something useful as well as citizens and those that have become citizens by migrating here legally. I also agree with his opinions about the press, foreign policy and how we need to put our country first and put our interests first before he do anything foreign policy wise. Honestly I could go on and on. Essentially I agree with a lot of his views on politics.

    Another reason I like Donald Trump as my president is because of how he speaks. Now I know a lot of people hate the way he gives speaches and I do to. Because the way Donald Trump speaks is not meant for a written teleprompter speech, I think his personality and speech abilities are much better suited for a event in which he is able to say what ever is on his mind. So I like him because He says what he thinks and thinks what he feels and I find it very honest and very real. As opposed to Hillary Clinton or Barrack Obama who I found to be very fake and very seemingly dishonest when they spoke.

    I also like him because, he is running the White House like a business. Meaning, when someone does a seemingly bad job he lets them go or fires them. Which is how the government should run if you think about it.

    Another thing I like about him is that he calls a lot of bullshit out in our society. I like how he tells the media essentially to go **** themselves because they are dishonest and greedy people who lie constantly to the American people about everything with a dishonest bias.

    So in a nutshell, I like Donald Trump as president. I voted for him once and if I am being honest, as of right now(unless he does somethings I don't like), I will vote for him again in 2020.

    Please explain to me Donald Trump's plan to solve illegal immigration? Building a wall won't happen. We may expand the current border fence with more fence, but there will be no wall as he is proposing. The House put the funding in as political move, but the Senate has shown no interest in voting for it. So aside from the wall, what is his solution? Nothing. He threatened to end the Dreamers only to then back off and ask for Congress to work it out. So Congress, which includes democrats, will find a solution, not Trump? Any clarification on this would honestly be appreciated because this is one area where I feel he went ultra-nationalist during the campaign and is now letting the issue drop.

    But he doesn't say what's on his mind. He teases things as if we are going to tune in next week to see the exciting conclusion. That's not speaking your mind. I admit, Hillary Clinton was not a great public speaker. Obama was much, much better. And just because you disagree with someone doesn't mean they are being dishonest. It's OK to disagree, but that doesn't make the other person a liar.

    Not really. The government isn't a business. Businesses are after profits, short term mostly and then long term if it works. If not, they fold and move on to something else. The government has been around since the founding of the country and will continue until it's demise. That's not how a business sees things. The government needs a long term strategy and not a shake up at every short term loss. More importantly, Donald Trump fires people who make him look bad, it has nothing to do with their performance. This is a man who is documented at being bad at firing people. Look at Comey. Trump didn't even fire him in person. He sent his "bodyguard" to deliver a letter...Not exactly a shining beacon of leadership.

    Except they don't lie constantly at all to the people, at least not the organizations he calls out. I mean, I like fantasy too, but not at the expense of living in reality.

    And I will vote against him.

    Agreed on all points and especially his oration skills but we had a slick snake oil salesman before him who so eloquently would go on for hours and say absolutely nothing of substance. Trump's speeches are halting, poorly timed, lack rhythm and the body language is choppy but it's all part of his charm. His delivery sucks but the message is always well stated, where as everything that rolled off Obama's tongue was just BS. He cloaked his perverse agenda in everything he said and I always felt like I was being assaulted by a used car salesman. This book and every other bitter diatribe these nuts can come up with just shows how desperate they are.

    I like him because he strikes fear in the heart of my enemies.

    There's of course a myriad of other substantive reasons why I support President Trump but that one is just the sweetest.

    I agree with everything you've said - I think you've missed the entertainment value he brings with his tweets and speeches as the moonbats and their moonbat media go nuts over whatever he says - these people remind me so much of the Three Stooges Curly Joe fighting with the oyster stew

    If the republicans would support Trump, and the media would be objective about him, he could turn out to be one of our best presidents. But the republicans can not allow an outsider to come in and start fixing the country's problems. That would make them look like they have been incompetent for 30 years. The media can't give Trump a fair shake because they are democrats hiding behind their desks and they oppose his ideology. But the American people in fly-over country understand what is happening and they support Trump. They can overlook Trump's warts because they see what he is trying to do for our country.

    You mention "the American people in fly-over country". Please don't forget the insurgents living on the coast - Slowly but surely we are converting the minds of those who have been brainwashed.

    True, and I have to add, some people are converting themselves just by recognizing the media bashing and the disloyal republicans who seem to always vote the liberal line. These folks converting themselves are doing so using common sense and thinking for themselves.

    Trump speaks on a third grade level which of course does appeal to some Americans.

    We should not look down our noses at anyone who is a poor communicator or has a foreign accent. Some folks think a southern accent means a person is illiterate. I have traveled in half the states and many foreign countries and I'll tell you that intelligence comes in many packages. Most con artist are elegant speakers.

    Trump is a billionaire president. So tell us all about the times you served as president? When did you earn your first billion dollars?

    So, was Obama a fan of the border wall?

    Well, as it happens, yes he was.

    I will say right away that I do not think Trump will be able to improve very much at all. That, however, is because of the american political system, not primarily because of his personal characteristics.

    That is a valid concern, of course. Can you prove that it actually works that way at present?

    Well, I would say it's a bad thing that people are so taken in by someone's speeches, rather than actual actions and conduct.

    But is Trump actually more prone to tell the truth than any previous presidents?

    Two questions on this.

    1) Has he actually shown himself thus far in his tenure to be more prone to firing people for doing a bad job than previous presidents?

    2) Should the government actually be run like a business rather than relying on elected officials held accountable by the electorate?

    President Trump is splendid for those who like swimming in boiling liquid ****. Normal people find Americans very strange sometimes.

    No they don't. A southern accent is just a southern accent. I too have traveled half the states and most foreign countries..

    Actually Government operates precisely like a business. Business however, when well managed, does not run a deficit nor dig the debt hole deeper and deeper. So on that score, your congress does not operate as a business. However, here is where they do.
    They demand bidding for services and goods. They spend cash on the customers, we, me and you they tell us.
    They tell us we can't live without government and business by ads tell us we must buy their product.

    American Government began with a clear eye mission. To serve the people.

    But look at the laws imposed on this once great nation just since 1950. I as a kid enjoyed far more freedom than you do today. So business will never rob you of your freedom nor put your family deep in debt for as you mention, forever.

    No president wants or needs hires who make him look bad. I don't think it is the workers at the top, but the moles still there from the days of Obama digging Trump a hole in the ground. Why they still work there amazes me. Trump needs far more new blood. I fault him for not going crazy changing the work force he inherited. Comey was so bad that even Hillary wanted him fired. Many Democrats had called for him to be fired even when Obama was president.

    Is your adoration and worship of The Wealthy reached those depths ?

    I am sorry but what does your post have to do with abortion? You know, the best topic of all for you to be involved in.

    But since you mangled what I had said, no thanks.

    I suppose everyone has prejudices, but I couldn't live with anyone who talked in Trump's awful, flat, characterless drone. He sounds like a vacuum cleaner going wrong.

    I didn't mangle what you said and you are free to explain.....

    But talk about "mangled" I never mentioned abortion....where did that come from, a dark orifice of yours?


    If you couldn't address what I posted in a post of mine you quoted why did you quote it at all?????

    Yes you did mangle what i said. I did not recognize what you said as you attempted to quote me.

    Have you forgot what your topic actually is? Are you not the abortion specialist?

    When people tell lies about me, i do not need to explain myself to them.
