Eh, NAFTA got signed by Clinton I think and that's still pretty much the worst word possible in some parts of the country. It's not totally unfair to say they got fucked by the Dems.

So you're a salt addict, like Trump's base.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

Yep, it was all me and not the lies about bringing back manufacturing and coal mining jobs along with social media manipulation that made Trump win the popular vote. You claim to hate Trump but love it when he succeeds at something.

Honestly, this just reads like textbook denialism. Reducing all the criticism to "liberal salt" is pretty much the equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and singing loudly.

We'll see what happens.

The DPRK will most likely not be willing to fully denuclearize, which limits what can be realistically achieved. Trump should be cautious about rushing into a bad deal in order to score a domestic political win.

I think that Kim understands that DPRK economy is getting worse everyday and that's why he finally agreed to meet with Trump. Sanctions at least succeeded. In this case the both leaders are want to achieve something so it's a chance that the summit would be succesful. But there is also a possibility that the tensions will grow because both would go into fury and would start to throw invectives on each other or something childlish like that.

That's very much a minority of Trump supporters. Maybe ten at the very most. The rest are reasonable people, you know.


Trump supporters are reasonable people? Was that a serious suggestion?
