...deeply dislikes his hostility to immigrants . .

We need to identify these people and start dumping Islamonazis which ObaMao judges won't allow us to deport into their neighborhoods.

I guess it never occurred to these Nimrods that "hostility to immigrants" would vanish if we had a higher bar to qualify them which means excluding those hostile to American values and the welcome mat only for those who respect us.

IOW, the leftists at the UK's Guardian know that he will be soundly reelected, and are trying to salvage something, like, oh, just open your borders and stop tweeting. Up yours, media liars.

Honestly, thats my take. The guy does things I dont like, some things that I have to agree with crazy liberal family members (non-presidential, a-hole, troll, jerk), but I will crawl over broken glass to vote for him.

It drives me crazy when people say but my kids can’t listen to the president or be like him due to his negative crass talk. Big deal people. I never looked to a president as a role model. Parents, religious people, God, etc. a politician? Never!!!!!!

What good did having a “Good Christian” President, like Jimmy Carter do?

You like the Bush approach, then vote for a Bush.

You like the results that Trump got you at a lot of personal expense? Then get over yourself.

Trump's hostility to immigrants? Does this guy know that Melania is an immigrant?

It's like when LBJ lost Walter Cronkite on the Vietnam War. If Trump has lost even The Guardian, he must be in trouble.

his litany of false claims...

Such as Obama quotes below:

“If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. Period. If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. Period. No one will take it away. No matter what.”

“My administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in government.”

“I will sign a universal health-care bill into law by the end of my first term as president that will cover every American and cut the cost of a typical family’s premium by up to $2,500 a year.”

“We support constitutional protections and judicial oversight on any surveillance program involving Americans.”

“Today I’m pledging to cut the deficit we inherited in half by the end of my first term in office. This will not be easy. It will require us to make difficult decisions and face challenges we’ve long neglected. But I refuse to leave our children with a debt that they cannot repay – and that means taking responsibility right now, in this administration, for getting our spending under control.”

I call this Iowa squidgy. They like to play nicey-nice like Minnesota. What is wrong with people? Our super squidgy Republican governor is welcoming more refugees. Must be the farm influence. Everything in Iowa is controlled by “big corn”

But Shaffer struggles with Trump’s divisiveness, deeply dislikes his hostility to immigrants...

If Shaffer is talking about opening the borders to illegals then he needs to join up with democrats. We don't need him.

If Shaffer thinks Trump is 'hostile' to legal immigrants then he needs to read up on Trump's positions... Shaffer's just wrong on this one... Trump welcomes LEGAL immigrants.

I've only required two things from Trump.

1. Destroy the Democrat Media.

Check.

2. Neutralize the partisan Democrat Federal activist judges.

Check. He has appointed nearly the entire membership of the Federalist Society to the Federal courts, and they're still coming.   winking face

These are the two things that have prevented the conservative movement from making any progress against the Left. The reigns of the Smirking Globalist Chimp and Æthelblack the Unprosecuted showed us these things clearly.

Yup. That’s me!

There are those of us that are not among the 45% “Approvers” but will almost certainly vote for him.

I will put up with his minor though numerous idiocies, because his general thrust is very constructive, and he does get things done.

....and, what the heck, the guy calls out the silliness of the left in an absolutely entertaining way, something that has been terribly lacking in previous Conservative politicians.

“wishes he would get off Twitter.”

No!! The low-IQ people need to sing a new tune. If not for POTUS’ tweets, we’d know NOTHING. If the MSM were honest and true, then his Twitter wouldn’t be necessary.
