Do you ever go back and follow up on posts you have made on weak people running from aything they don't agree with? You say weak people can't handle others opinions. I responded to your post on same subject last night. Is ignoring questions about comments you made about weak people running your way of avoiding others opinions?

On election night I posted....Looking forward to the no cost wall, sending illegals home, bring jobs back, rebuild the military, low taxes, redo the treaties, and a better plan to replace Obamacare.

Now you are asking me .....Which of the things that you listed do you feel are not in the best interest of the people of the Unite States? For each one that you don't like counter it with one of Hillary's promises that you like better.

Now you are confusing me. I stated I was looking forward....to me that means I have accepted President Trump's positions. However, he has backed off on illegals...now sending just criminals home and the wall will be fence and wall not all wall as promised.

He is my President and I am prepared to give him an opportunity to bring jobs back, rebuild the military, redo the Iran treaty to improve it, redo trade treaties to improve them,  replace Obamacare with a better plan with preexisting coverage and lower premiums and lower y taxes..

What is there not to like??????

Thanks for your straight forward response. I know that we have picked at each other over the past several weeks and we will not see eye to eye on some of the subjects that arise in the future. If we were not using an alias we could probably meet and have a pleasant conversation. With that being said, I did notice for the most part that you supported Trump's plans without mentioning anything that was monumental about what Hillary was proposing. I think one of her biggest downfalls was she spent most of her time criticizing Trump and ran on maintaining Obama's legacy in order to secure the Black vote.

You also mentioned that Trump was easing up a litle on some of his plans, but I am sure there has never been a President who was able to fullfill every campaign promise. As long as he can succeed in the majority of his promises to the people, we will be eternally grateful. One last point, much of the protests and rioting that is continuing at this moment can be attributed to the "attacks" Obama made on Trump in his speeches during the last two or three days of the capaign. He should have been attending to the business of the Presidency instead of speaking and creating discontent in hopes of maintaining his "legacy".

It is not my job to defend GF, but as I have stated before I have met him. I guess I am the only forum member who has although at least one has emailed with him over the years. I am sure everyone has noticed that although I include him when I refer to the 3 stooges I hold him in high regard as a person. He intellectually honest and I enjoyed our conversations. I disagree with almost all of his political views and will post opposing views in direct confrontation to him at times, but i am sure most have noticed I withhold the vitriol that I use when addressing the other two. Since the election took he has been magnanimous and I think sincere is his desire to see Trump succeed in his stated goals of moving the country forward, even though I am sure GF thinks the way to achieve those goals would be down a different path.  But in the end I know he wants the same things as the rest of us, peace and prosperity for our nation and to leave the world a better place for our children and grandchildren.

He posts inflammatory statements from time to time but so do I and others. He has stated that his belief is that the forum, or any conversation for that matter, quickly becomes boring if everyone agrees about everything. He has a sense of humor and I have not seen him take the many insults hurled his personally. He just responds and moves on. I will continue to disagree with him at times on issues and will say so when I do. I post this because I find D it refreshing to have an intellectually honest Democrat to debate with because they are so few and far between. Now I just wish he could drag those other two out of their safe spaces so I could have fun insulting them.... Lol.
