Completely false analogy. Trump wasn’t standing on a stage in London saying he was ashamed of his country.

But keep squealing, I am sure eventually you will find something to scream about voters might listen to.

Being a Trump chump means disconnecting your brain from anything that proves Trump is a liberal.

Exactly the same, except where it differs.

It’s the same to go overseas and flame your country? Not even close. It’s called BETRAYAL, and it’s why the Chicks go blasted, and deserved it.

I don’t know and am curious. Did Trump say that he was ashamed that Bush was from his home state, or from Texas for that matter (where this Natalie person is from) or that he was ashamed to be an American?

We gonna sit around arguing about how great Iraq was and we would totally do it ten more times if given the option?

Because if so, we should all just go home now, if those neocon RNC talking points are going to be a part of the general election platform. Again.

It seems like a bad idea to me for anyone to hold up liberal concern trolling from Salon as evidence of anything. They’re just mad because their own party is in an ideological turmoil between a shrill lifelong criminal and a communist. If anything, they want Republicans to get caught up arguing in favor of the Bush Doctrine so their voters are reminded of the same things that helped them GOTV for Obama.

I agree. Piss poor analogy posted by the OP. But that is expected from a Cruz supporter.

Comments like this win over so many Trump supporters.

You’re right. Michael Moore or Cindy Sheehan would be a closer example.

So? Trump supporters are immune to reason. No matter how many times you point out Trump’s liberal past, they just ignore you.

Do you think there isn’t media coverage abroad of this circus? Just what did Trump gain by excoriating GWB as well as reopening a much debated and frankly, mute issue that the democrats have gleefully used in the last two presidential elections against Republicians. This did nothing but pump up Obama’s and the democrats theory.

What a dishonest load of tripe.

There’s a difference between attacking the man, the office, and the nation as a whole.

Trump was criticizing the man.

The Dixie Chicks attacked all 3 and did it on foreign soil to boot.

Anyone that can’t see the difference has been spending far too much time on the far left websites like Salon.

That’s the right track, and it is mirrored in the attempt to compare Trump to code pink.

Trump is not anti US. His stances are decidedly pro US, and what our nation should be.

The desperation to destroy him has unhinged a number of people.
