    I'm not sure what polls you're looking at. Trumps poll numbers are pretty meh. Certainly not skyrocketing.

    Worse than every president since Carter, as far as I can tell.

    Maybe Fox has some special poll they cherry pick, or something.

    Sorry i was going on your summary

    As a politician, Trump has been fairly honest about his intentions values and goals

    I expect Trump's poll numbers (however bad they already are) to creep upwards as we inch towards the midterms.

    After the midterms they will plummet.

    Are you a lawyer? How much weight should be put in your legal opinion?

    Since you have little to no legal experience, I place little to no value on your legal opinion.

    You can still have your legal opinion. Just don’t be surprised when no one cares.

    I can kinda agree with that. I'd say he hasn't been very transparent. He still hasn't explained what he's trying to accomplish with Russia, for example. But his values have come through loud and clear, and he had indicated his intentions on just about everything he's doing nowadays. It's just unfortunate that he intended to do so many wrong things. But my objection to Trump has never been so much about his goals but about his methods. His methods are immoral and corrupt. Other Republican presidents would have brought immigration reform, but without the racism and xenophobia. Other presidents would have tried to denuclearize North Korea, but without flirting with nuclear war. Other presidents would have extracted us from the boondoggle in Syria, but without bending over for Vladimir Putin. It is no surprise at all that he would also cheat on his wife and evade campaign finance law. He doesn't care who he hurts. Whether there was an actual conspiracy or not, does anyone think he has too many scruples to do a deal with Putin to steal the election? If he didn't, the only obstacle was opportunity.

    I'm a bit offended for Stormy and McDougal. I don't think they deserve being called low-lifes. They may deal in sex, but I don't know of either of them ever cheating people like Trump does (though I guess Stormy's husband filed for divorce alleging that she cheated on him, so maybe there's a case there).

    I think if the attempt to is to target the two women publicly accusing trump (among a list of 19 other women), I think you are incorrectly saying Will was calling them "low-lifes" as Will was pretty clear in saying trump was a "low-life from Queens". You'd be correct if you had said "seedy", and your criticism of Will for calling Davis and McDougal "seedy"... but Will is a conservative so possible his thoughts about women are old fashioned (and wrong).
