Two thoughts...

If they are non-political, how can they be left, center and right?

If you only include non-politicals, you get who, the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, and The Great Pumpkin?

But that wouldn't be your reaction right? You should be mad... no challenge made. Those were your words right?

Blamed America for it's part too. Then came home and talked a wee bit tougher.

But you're "meh" now too?

When I said learn to read, I meant read what I wrote, not read into it.
I don't have time to tutor you.

I will have one of my people "sit down with you" and explain things to you.
Go with my man here........

Responsible people have responsible opinions. Some are left, some center and some right. I'll clarify. they would be people not running for political office.

You don't get it. You're the cool one. You're the guy who challenges.

We're just all fascists waiting to give the Heil Drumpf salute. What do we know?

The last non-political office holder in this country was George Washington, and politically, we have been going down hill ever since.

How sad have we become as a country when it comes to political debate?

The lowest of the lowest common denominator now dominates the political landscape.

Every anti-Trump type trying to one-up the other in terms of rhetoric. "What outrageous thing can I say next" is their only thought.

The kicker is last night, I was told on this board that I should be HANGED for my support of the President of the United States. The very worst thing I have ever seen on this board from one member to the other.

How did we ever get to this point? It's absolutely disgusting.

And the people whose only goal in life is to ramp up the rhetoric more and more every day should be absolutely ashamed of what they are doing to this country. Certain politicians. Certain members of the media. Certain members of Hollywood. And yes, certain members of this message board. All of you need to step back and think about what you are doing.

Because it really is vile.

You see, never in my lifetime have I ever seen important figures in media and politics call the POTUS the names Trump has been called his entire tenure...and especially after Helsinki.

But they do it now. For what? For what he said at Helsinki? Really?

That's why the Mark Levin perspective is important here.

What is going on with the response to Trump is FAR MORE dangerous than anything Trump has done to date. Infinitely more dangerous in fact.

But, once again, those on the far left, some Republicans and fake conservatives are setting the dangerous precedent that will only come back to haunt them one day.
Your thinking along the line of Ol' Harry Reid’s “nuclear” rules change in the U.S. Senate that's now gonna blow-up in the Dem's faces. Just one example... of those with short sight who can not see beyond their nose.

Its called hero worship. Cult of personality. Cult of whataboutism. Both sides do it.

Its the death of principles.

I'm not going to apologize for outing people who have said completely contradictory and hypocritical things.

Your interpretive skills are challenged.
