I don't like Trump

[Fife]

The qualifying term in Art. I, Sec. 1, is "All." (Overlook the veto power, they were probably hung over that day.)

BTW, as devious as the drafting and force-feeding of the Constitution was, those boys at least gave a wink and a nod to Montesquieu. Progressive thinking, that.

I'm not trying to discuss Trump here. I'm asking about the differences in the two systems.

I was talking about that particular conversation with Smitty.
Threads sometimes wander off topic to something more interesting. Get over it.

Stop it, Fife. Next thing you know you're going to start talking about the unlawful detentions that were going on of dissenters to the new Constitution. We can't have that talk around here, senor.

Bold statement, care to back it up with an explanation?

America was lost to The New World Order. NO ONE ELSE would have had the balls to counteract them: renegotiate NAFTA, kill the TPP, put the breaks on “Free” Trade, THE WALL, lower Tax Rates to the Middle Class, 2 conservative SCOTUS, NO new wars, and recently, withdraw from WHO. Look at his rallies, for chrissakes: no president has been able to do that since Teddy Roosevelt. (Who Trump reminds me of. Modern egalitarians would have HATED Teddy.)

They look like pretty subjective reasons to me. I might use several of them to argue why he is such a poor President.

DUDE, you asked me to list why he’s the most successful president in my lifetime; you don’t get to kibitz.

It would be easier to get over if the "something more interesting" part of the thread actually materialized.

Anything he likes is objective and holy, anything he doesn't like is subjective but ultimately bad for everyone.

I've said my peace on it, I don't actually want to talk about Trump

Trump was interesting in 2016, it's gotten hella boring now

The American system is designed to make gridlock, feature not a bug

Don't trust the Feds, keep them in constant check,

make them have to go all in to get anything done at all

Indeed, most legislation is garbage, so preventing more of the worst legislation from getting through is a great feature of the gridlock

Check and Balances Vetocracy FTW

OK, and you gave me reasons why you think he is. Many of which I felt showed the opposite. Nothing was proven but thanks for playing.

Welcome to the human condition.
