I will not be voting for Trump nor Biden.
Trump is a petulant child, a horrible communicator, and not the worlds greatest leader by 20 miles. His tweets are often an embarrassment.
I just don’t like him.
On the other hand I don’t feel he was ever given a chance from a policy standpoint. I feel like the Democrats are the divisive ones the racist ones the corrupt ones and I feel like the media backs their play. So when I see people on here calling Trump out for all kinds of shit, most of which I actually don’t agree with, I just see hypocrisy in spades.
The Democrats spent four years on a personal vendetta out to get him and anything that he touched. I’ve never been so disgusted with a political party in my life.
Wow I hate him and his style and his communication I have generally agreed with most all of his of his policies. The Democrats on the other hand have done nothing, and I mean nothing but waste taxpayer money chasing after him.
Does that answer your question?
I think it just leaves me puzzled in a different way.
I agree with you on the Left never giving him a chance. The "Resistance" formed about the day after the election and it hasn't let up. There was the pre-planned riot on Inauguration Day, the Million Vaginas March, etc. I attended a seminar given be the Society of Early Americanists (or something like that) at the U. of Tulsa right after that, and the panelists didn't have one thing to say about early America. It was all about how to inoculate students against Trump. It was disgusting, and I wrote to the administration at TU to tell them so.
But--at the same time--he made his own bed. He never made any effort to conciliate the opposition the way that George W. Bush did after he won despite losing the popular vote (the first time it had happened since the 1876 election). Bush was not the smartest president we have ever had, but he was smart enough to know that he had to legitimize his election by seeking (and getting) some buy-in from the Democrats. And he did it, with both style and substance. He renamed the DoJ building after Bobby Kennedy. He launched "No Child Left Behind," Ted Kennedy's brainchild, and he both praised the program and gave the credit to its author. It all fell apart over Iraq, but for awhile there, especially after 9/11, we had some national unity.
Donald J. Trump has done none of that. He was abrasive and divisive on the campaign trail in 2016, he was the same on Inauguration Day, and he has been the same every day of his presidency.
It could have been so much better. He could have made it so much better. I was hoping he would make it so much better.
But he didn't, and I think he's got to go.
I was planning on voting for the Libertarian, as I did in 2016. But one of my stepsons, who supported Trump in 2016 and is now living in London, told me that that was a cop-out. And I think that he was right. So I'll hold my nose and vote for Joe Biden, the "wise old head" of the Democratic Party who I believe is really the Village Idiot in disguise.
