In the event of an armed conflict I will support the president. But I doubt the president will demonstrate any particular desire to actually fight for this nation except when circumstances force him to. Given a choice I am sure he would rather talk, equivocate, ask for UN intervention, talk, apologize for America’s obvious failings and then run for it.
Insofar as domestic policy goes I see no reason to support him at all unless he makes some kind of mistake and does something that might be beneficial for the nation.
All support will be based on the specific situation.
As far as respect goes he will have to earn it. So far I see no reason at all to respect the man. His only real talent that I can see is the ability to talk people into voting for him. Which makes him an accomplished salesman. If he ever actually does anything worthy of respect I will give it.
And all of what I have said here is far more than the rabid leftists gave to Bush. The last 8 years have been an unbroken record of sedition, defeatism, obstruction and slander against the man. They never let up. Not once.
Well said!
