The extreme Right is known for it's irony deficiency, but this time you really scored......" has also demonstrated a penchant for camera-addicted showboating and prizing partisan gain over sound governance."........which describes Trump to a T.

I have three better ones:
- a wall to keep out illegal immigrants that contain a high proportion of , murderers, gangbangers, and muslim terrorists
- a health care plan that will be better than Obamacare
- draining the swamp in DC

So are you saying that the last sentence in your blog doesn't describe Trump?........Are you saying that Trump hasn't showed a penchant for camera-ready showboating?.......LOL......and surely you can't deny that he favours partisan gain over sound governance.......Not just my opinion, but fact......Of course, facts mean absolutely nothing to Trumpers......you people live in a fact-free universe.

My opinion is that you Trumpers were so easy for him to lead into that fact-free place is because you were already most of the way there, with your beliefs about the big magician in the sky.....your denials of Science.......just waiting to fall into Trumplandia.....

It really doesn't matter because if Trump runs again, it won't be until 2020.

The people in the 2018 election in West Virginia are Republicans George (Boogie) Ambler, Dan Canterbury, Steve Malcom (retired DC Cop) on the State Woody Hanna (on the local level). Most of their opponents are decent people. Patrick Morrisey (reservations on that one) is running against Senator Manchin (who I respect). Either one will give a Republican because Manchin is a DINO who doesn't operate along party lines. Republican Carol Miller (buffalo rancher) is running for Congress against Democrat Richard Ojeda (interesting, outspoken Military guy who voted for Trump) against on the national level.

There are two amendment which I voted against even though the Republicans support it. I also vote to for the current Democrat sheriff because he is going a good job. I voted for a State appointed Democrat Supreme Court Judge and a Democrat Supreme Court Judge. Politically party really doesn't matter when it comes to judges.

The Canadians aren't all bad. Some, like FrenchSalsa, can see through the smoke and mirrors being dangled in their faces by Trudeau. Others, like Bikenski, just dislike the American way because it has proved to be a success time after time. All Canadians are not bad and all Americans are not the screaming fascists we are being made out to be. Those are liberals.

I wouldn't put a lot of path in Frenchsalsa's opinions.
She didn't even know the name of the party she was going to vote for
in the 2015 federal election.

There is much about the 'American way' that appeals to me.
The parts that don't usually involve invading small nations for no good reason and getting your kids killed.

Please explain to me how the US invasions of Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan can conceivable be seen as 'successful'.

Show me how successful health care in the US is when outcomes are far below those of other developed nations, and you spend twice as much per capita.

Show me how successful the war on drugs has been.

I do strongly approve of all the Mexicans you allow to stay in the US since it means I can get Californian Romaine lettuce in Edmonton for a buck a head in mid-winter.

I am not talking about all the Canadians just the alleged ones on this site who have the audacity to dictate U.S. politics. I was a generational democrat. My father was a Korean/Vietnam War Veteran. He was forced out because of injuries that sustained in a bombing. He went to work in a glass factory after he left the military and became a Union Activist. I followed my Daddy's footsteps and remember wishing I could talk to him when I was doing my own Union Activism. The Democrats of his day are not the same Democrats today. That is why I changed.

I love being an American but there are issues. I wasn't too thrilled nor do I understand the reasoning of war especially since my father and son both went to war. My son was able to get in, get out and take advantage of the educational benefits and GI Bill for a nice home. My father was not so fortunate.

Health Care is definitely an issue. It took the United States ten years to finally get rid of Prohibition which set off a crime wave. It took the 18th Amendment to start Probation and 21st Amendment to end it. Some states and counties still have "Dry Laws." We are a bit show when it comes to Drug Laws, but Medial Marijuana is finally legal in quite a few states and Recreational Marijuana is legal in a few.

It is quite possible to get a constitutional amendment to deal with the anchor babies. Too many illegals have taken advantage and there is nothing wrong with saying "No More!"

Also that California lettuce that you buy for a buck a head is often picked by Mexicans who are here LEGALLY. They get a SAW Card which means they are vetted which means they not smuggling in drugs or involved in human trafficking.

i am not trying to dictate.
It's your right to do as many stupid things as you like.

And it's my right to express my opinions on any nation's policies.

i wouldn't expect you to agree with me since you are hampered by lack of intelligence, education, and tainted by continuous exposure to Fox news.
