Maybe I should have expressed my thoughts better. I think you try to do the right thing when TDS doesn't take control. I don't agree with Trump on everything. For example, I think he should have at least paused the persecution of Assange. Maybe he thought that would have resulted in making McConnell a total enemy, who knows. I have never been unfaithful to my wife, and certainly do not want my sons to follow his example in that respect.

Biden's constant wins

The border? Spending? "Climate change"? Biden Ministry of Truth? The Biden Gang's preposterous indictments are having difficulties, but neither you nor I know what will happen.

To be clear, I am rooting for Trump. He is our quarterback for now, and we will win or lose with him at this point.

But just like the quarterback of your favorite team, he is not perfect. People that treat him like a deity, who is above being questioned, are not only misguided, but counter productive. If the QB throws an interception, it has to be dealt with, starting with putting the defense on the field, then handing the QB an iPad to see where/how he screwed up.

Without those things happening, the score will quickly get lopsided, especially if you’re already behind on the scoreboard. No one is, or should be, above critique, and expectations that they improve their performance over time. But with Trump, he is allowed to whatever he wants, including repeat mistakes, or make new ones, without ever having to face the music. And his record is not that great to begin with.

You just said you “may not” agree with Trump on everything, which sounds like you’re still not sure, but rather than ever admit when he does something questionable, you run out and try to defend him to the bitter end. That’s fine if you’re arguing with some leftist. But when you are arguing with true conservatives, and defending Trump doing something liberal, or ignorant, or sinful, you’ve lost site of the real battle.
