    Tweeting isn’t working - just FYI.

    Pretty unconscionable to play golf almost 50 times (probably surpassed 50, as this is not real-time data) in a year where there was a global pandemic that ravaged the country that you were supposed to lead.

    And when he wasn't golfing, he spent most of this year campaigning (which he started on day one of his presidency). And since the election, he has spent more time complaining about the election than on the coronavirus.

    You are entitled to your own opinion, but the data makes it clear for me.

    I LOL'd because I was sure your post was a joke. No sentient person could have posted that with any degree of seriousness. Apparently I was wrong though...

    That's the disrespect for the conservative point of view I'm talking about. Please, keep going.

    A really compelling "conservative" point of view... victimhood.

    I think some of them are being overly harsh, but I guess they don't take you as sincere. I think you are sincere at some level, but again, you started your first long post insulting everyone here as being "low information," and then got predictable results. A lot of people here read a ton from all sorts of different, well-reported sources from across the political spectrum. So they aren't going to take someone calling them "low information," when presented with little counter-evidence, too seriously. That's kind of the nature of the forum. That, plus tons of trolling and bad blood and frustration. Wonderful place, really, now that I stop to think about it. :)

    (EDIT: Meant to say here, ... But I do think you have a point. You get the idea though.)

    Trump campaigned to, spoke smartly to, and has embraced a feeling of victimhood. And a lot of his followers -- not necessarily you -- take this up whole cloth. Everyone (in a forum, on the internet, in silicon valley, in the media, in other democracies, in former republican administrations, in his own former administration, etc, etc, etc) is aligned against him/them. Trump spoke to this sentiment really, really well, in a way that the democratic party could never figure out or even see coming. Over decades, they kind of blithely walked away from white, working class voters, for the most part, and took them for granted. So I think some posters are wondering, from your posts, if you are in the victimhood camp. That's the bottom line, as I'm reading it here. But you're right, all the disrespect doesn't help anything. I think a lot of people on the left feel like they tried respect and sympathy for a lot of years and are now watching some people walk clearly away from objective reality. ("Election fraud" even though no court has found any evidence of such, and even Trump's attorneys admit in court, to judges, that there is no evidence of widespread fraud.)

    I harbor no ill will for you. Sincerely wishing you and yours happy holidays. Rockets fans have to stick together, especially this year.

    As has been said so often since the election...the "F*ck Your Feelings!" crowd sure seem to be having a lot of feelings.

    Worked hard golfing up and down the coast every week at his family resorts, making money off the government each trip. That and working hard spreading lies and propaganda to his sheep all year at rallies and on Fox news. He works hard at filing lawsuits too. He's consumed with doing everything for himself and about himself.

    OMG, I can't even believe you can say that he worked hard and be serious!

    Biden has worked harder in the past few months while not even President doing more good than Trump has in 4 years in urging people to do their best to help stop the spread of Covid. He has tried to urge social distancing and wearing masks, and set an example by zooming instead of gathering large crowds for a lot of his campaign. All Trump did was make fun of Joe in masks, and scoff at his social distancing by referring to him as being in the basement. Add in the fact that he while bragged about his crowds of people gathered to see him mainly Maskless, as he scoffed about the dangers of Covid, and laughed about Joe's little crowds. But, he made them sign waivers to cover his butt, and they were foolish enough to fall for his act.

    Even now, he is consumed with raising money, tweeting nonstop, and Grifting more. He has never mentioned staying safe during the holidays, and never been concerned with the over 320,000 dead because he did NOTHING but spread lies and propaganda to lead a no mask no social distancing no lockdown stance.

    Now he is working hard to pardon people associated with him. Of the 45 pardons and commutations so far 88% aided someone with a personal tie to him or furthered his political aims. That, and filing lawsuit after lawsuit while campaigning for donations to pay for his madness as he spreads misinformation about losing by a landslide.

    Make no mistake, Trump only works hard for himself!

    Seems easier to not engage cult members. Don't bring facts to a deflection game.
