About as much value as yours.


It's possible to be against a person, and more against the alternative person.

So. Yes?

Verifiably untrue.

However, VC also went out of it's way to show how crazy and delusional someone like that would be.

I don't like Scarface actually, Lord of War was more my thing. Plus if I wanted to be a drug lord I'd just be an East India Company merchant in the Hong Kong area after the first opium war.

According to their morals, not necessarily everyone else's. For example, what makes the Black Prince today an anti-hero at best made him a bastion of chivalry and heroics in his own time!

It's "Partisan hackery" to support the superior candidate? Hottest of hot takes my man.

Those things are mutually exclusive.

You'll just need to take my word for it, since I can't magically project my opinions into your mind.

When you call Donald J. Trump "superior" then yeah, it's partisan hackery. Along with a possessiveness over guns.

Maybe you ought to dislodge the belief that Trump really is a Stable Genius before you lecture someone on definitions.

I think President Donald J Trump of America The USA is the second greatest American President ever. I think President Ronald Reagan of America The USA is the greatest American President ever, the original Make America Great Again President. Granted they have very different styles.

President Ronald Reagan was a gentleman, they don't make them like that anymore.

We are on NS, to share, discuss, argue, disagree, on Trump, elections, Republicans, Democrats, Socialists, Libertarians and whatevers, with respect. This Respect Is Given It Is Not Earned, This Respect Is Called Freedom of Expression and Democracy. This Man Always Says What He Means, I Am The Real Thing. I Make Ted Cruz look like a Leftist.
