    when asked by the wealthy members of his exclusive golf club in NJ, why is he spending so much more time in his own property, Trump replied

    He is an absolute turd - just a despicable human being.

    Those that cling to him now are incapable of putting country first and are frauds.

    In coddling the neofascists, Trump is the 1st un-American president
    .

    Americans fight Nazis and other fascists. Americans revile the existence of those groups’ ideology. Americans will wall off their demonstrations, marginalize them in society, oppose them relentlessly and condemn them unconditionally. Period.

    We now have a president who won’t do the same​
    ...........................

    He’ll attack the media with impunity, will vilify Muslims and will even besmirch members of his own administration and party, but he practically has to be cattle-prodded into putting white supremacists in their place.

    There’s no rectifying this with an apology or another statement.

    The president of the United States may be American by birth. But he’s clearly too cowardly to fight groups that Americans will not tolerate — neo-Nazis, the KKK and other white supremacists among them. That alone has made him the first un-American president, because this nation stands for fighting those hate groups,
    not coddling them.

    Donald Trump has no grasp of what it means to be president

    U-turns, self-regard and equivocation are not what it takes



    DEFENDERS of President Donald Trump offer two arguments in his favour—that he is a businessman who will curb the excesses of the state; and that he will help America stand tall again by demolishing the politically correct taboos of left-leaning, establishment elites. From the start, these arguments looked like wishful thinking.

    After Mr Trump’s press conference in New York on August 15th they lie in ruins. The unscripted remarks were his third attempt to deal with violent clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia, over the weekend.
    In them the president stepped back from Monday’s—scripted—condemnation of the white supremacists who had marched to protest against the removal of a statue of Robert E. Lee. In New York, as his new chief of staff looked on dejected, Mr Trump let rip, stressing once again that there was blame “on both sides”. He left no doubt which of those sides lies closer to his heart.
    His unsteady response contains a terrible message for Americans. Far from being the saviour of the Republic, their president is politically inept, morally barren and temperamentally unfit for office.

    ..............................

    Many Republicans in Congress held their noses and backed Mr Trump because they thought he would advance their agenda. That deal has not paid off. Mr Trump is not a Republican, but the solo star of his own drama. By tying their fate to his, they are harming their country and their party. His boorish attempts at plain speaking serve only to poison national life. Any gains from economic reform—and the booming stock market and low unemployment owe more to the global economy, tech firms and dollar weakness than to him—will come at an unacceptable price.

    Republicans can curb Mr Trump if they choose to. Rather than indulging his outrages in the hope that something good will come of it, they must condemn them. The best of them did so this week. Others should follow.

    Why would our founders Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson be insulted by our hero Donald J. Trump?

    good of you to remind me that

    the p***y grabber, effectively, has also been a pinko commie.​

    Trump has
    • subjugated himself to be Putin's, arguably the world's most powerful Communist leader, useful idiot
    • help Russian oligarchs (commie Putin's inner circle) to launder their ill-gotten $$$ in the US

    The hell with politically correctness, an American hero has spoken:

    "Trump is often poorly informed, and can be impulsive" says US Senator John McCain.
    "We must respect his authority and constitutional responsibilities. We must, where we can, cooperate with him.
    But we are not his subordinates. We don’t answer to him. We answer to the American people. We must
    be diligent in discharging our responsibility to serve as a check on his power. And we should value our identity
    as members of Congress more than our partisan affiliation."

    John C. Danforth was a Republican U.S. senator from Missouri from 1976 to 1995; he has written this recent Op-Ed





    Trump continues to promote self above party. He stands in opposition to the founding principle of our Republican party — that of a united country.

    We are the party of Abraham Lincoln, and our founding principle is our commitment to holding the nation together. That founding principle of the party is also a founding principle of the United States.

    The Republican Party has a long history of standing for a united country.
    • Theodore Roosevelt raised up the ordinary people of his day and championed their cause against abusive trusts.
    • Dwight Eisenhower used the army to integrate a Little Rock high school.
    • George H.W. Bush signed the most important civil rights legislation in more than a quarter-century, a bill authored by Republican senators.
    • George W. Bush stood before Congress and the nation and defended Muslims after 9/11.
    Our record hasn’t been perfect. But our long history has been to uphold the dignity of all of God’s people and to build a country welcoming to all.

    Now comes Trump, who is exactly what Republicans are not, who is exactly what we have opposed in our 160-year history. We are the party of the Union, and he is the most divisive president in our history. There hasn’t been a more divisive person in national politics since George Wallace.

    To my fellow Republicans:

    We cannot allow Donald Trump to redefine the Republican Party. That is what he is doing,
    as long as we give the impression by our silence that his words are our words
    and his actions are our actions. We cannot allow that impression to go unchallenged.
    In honor of our past and in belief in our future, for the sake of our party and our nation, we Republicans must disassociate ourselves from Trump by expressing our opposition to his divisive tactics and by clearly and strongly insisting that he does not represent what it means to be a Republican.
