I am on my own side, not President Trump’s. I do not believe that he has committed even 1% of the transgressions that his adversaries assert; and I have no problem with him playing hardball. There are many things I like personally about him, and I believe that he truly has our country’s and our world’s best interests at heart. But he also too often sullies the discourse (e.g., horse face) that come with high costs and few discernible benefits — even for himself.
I don’t think my view on this differs much from many other folks on this site, and to repeat I am behind him on most and perhaps nearly all issues. Perhaps I just have a lower threshold for nonsense; though I prefer to think that I am simply less patient with foolishness that distracts from the great issues confronting our country. I wish he would not expend precious political capital on trivial matters that he should consider beneath him.
Like Grant’s reputation for being a notorious drunkard yet in 8 years in the White House there is not ONE first hand account of him ever having taken a single drink there. I suspect as much of Trump’s “womanizing”. A greatly exaggerated story to demean him. I would bet I have had sex with more women not my wife and I am far from a billionaire. Meanwhile REAL perverts like Epstein get a wrist tap because they have “friends”.
Your self indulgent and gratuitous trashing of Trump sullies the discourse.
