If you're a big Trump fan, you probably don't like me because I criticize him when I think he's wrong. If you're a big Trump hater, you probably don't like me because I praise him when I think he's right. I'm okay with you disliking me for either of these reasons, because I believe objective truth exists independently of my personal feelings about any particular individual. This puts me in a tiny minority in 2018 America, apparently, but I don't mind too much. While it hasn't been too great for my "career," at least I can sleep at night.
When President Trump says something that's objectively true, or is at least a reasonably informed opinion, I don't feel the need to reject the truth just because he's the one telling it. For example, yesterday he expressed his opinion about the international criminal gang known as MS-13, as he's done many times in the past:
“These aren’t people. These are animals,” Trump says in response to a question about the MS-13 gang during his roundtable on sanctuary cities. “... because of the weak laws, they come in fast”
MS-13's motto is "mata, viola, controla," which means "kill, rape, control." And it's not just hyperbole. That's what they do, and they've been doing a lot of it. They're drug traffickers. They're rapists. They run prostitution rings, often involving children. They behead people. They prey on anyone weaker than them. And they're a growing problem in the U.S.

Trump should hold a press conference to apologize....
To Animals!
Imagine the MS13N Media REEEEE-ing...
“kill, rape, control.”
There was a serial killer not long ago who had a similar motto — bind, torture, kill.
That first sentence is so holier-than-thou I refused to read further!
It makes me sick when people misinterpret what President Trump says and then pat themselves on the back for criticizing him.
Makes me sick too.
Here are some interesting paragraphs at the end of the article, directed toward the media:
Especially when you're so blatantly dishonest about it that you piss off even the RINO cuck NeverTrumpers like me. When you force me to defend somebody I really don't like because you're just plain lying about what he said, it doesn't make me resent him. It makes me resent you.This is why Trump won. It's a cliche at this point, but it's true. He ran against the media and he won, so now they're redoubling their efforts and making even bigger fools of themselves. It's not enough to go after him for all the stuff he has done. They have to make $#!+ up.
I'm looking forward to the administration of President Pence. But if the media keeps this up, that won't happen until 2025.
After Pelosi’s little speech today, we should call the Democrats FOMS-13 (Friends of MS-13)
Just for laughs I’d like to see the Prez take verbal
shots against Adolph Hitler.
