What has happened to FR? People are advocating for President Trump's removal, making sarcastic remarks, Saying the TRump era is over. President Trump has righted the economy, ended Iran's nuclear weapons threat and is the greatest President since Reagan. He deserves better than this. He already has the RINOS in Congress against him, he needs his base fired up and ready to vote! THe RATS are highly motivated to steal this election. Have some courage and get behind out President!
H-1B Visas, which destroy Americans' careers and ability to even pay bills, went UP under Trump, not down.
(I know this painfully first-hand.)
Energy costs under Trump went UP, not down.
(I know this painfully first-hand.)
Grocery costs under Trump went UP, not down.
(I know this painfully first-hand.)
The Iran mess continues, with Trump making oddball claims about peace deals and having the mess ended, only for it to flare up again the next day.
In an age when normal Americans can't afford to buy homes, Trump not only arrogantly says: “We’re not going to destroy the value of their homes so that somebody that didn’t work very hard can buy a home. I don’t want to drive housing prices down. I want to drive housing prices up for people who own their homes."
Trump 1.0 was great. Trump 2.0 is a chump.
i could not give a shit less whose name is on a building but i do love it when people get all bent about it
I do appreciate that we can discuss such things without calling one another names. It also appears that you are more patient than me in this regard. I will hold out some hope that you will prove to be right and I will prove to be premature in my judgement. I do feel how I feel, but I’d so LOVE to be wrong.
I know the feeling brother.
It is quite an important issue, but I do not believe it exceeds the need to stop Iran from nuking us in terms of importance. I think stopping Iran from nuking us is either the top issue, or close to it.
Yeah, whatever, Elmer. I don’t kiss the republican’s ass and say thank you. I vote for what I believe is the best candidate. If there is no good candidate, I skip that position and move on. I don’t subscribe to the “vote for the lesser of two evils” or “vote to keep candidate X out of office.” Some of the republican candidates flying around today give you the Thomas Masseys and Rand Paul’s of the world. No thanks to either. Both anti-Trumpers. I voted for Trump THREE times. Just because I did doesn’t mean I have to agree with every decision he makes and feel free (I paid in blood on the battlefield to do so) to disagree and tell him what I think of his decision!!!
Some of us donate to FR. What’s the matter with the rest?
I guess that I am de-sensitized to dumbass statements by ignorant people and realized they weak minded and have been manipulated by the “media force”. So I don’t really react to their stupidity and it often doesn’t register in my brain.
“What has happened to FR? People are advocating for President Trump’s removal, making sarcastic remarks, Saying the TRump era is over.”
FR is absolutely infested with paid ChiCom/Russkie trolls and the mods refuse to do anything about it, that’s what’s wrong ...
Not at all.
“FR is absolutely infested with paid ChiCom/Russkie trolls and the mods refuse to do anything about it”
I think you’re right about the trolls. Is seems like bots or AI have scoured here and grabbed accounts of long-defunct posters. We’ll know for sure if Tony Snow or Barbara Olson begin to post.
And .. do we have engaged mods anymore? It seems that they’ve been pretty quiet since Jim Rob died.
I agree. Great posts, as usual.
The border invasion is real.
Iran nukes do not exist.
This is not difficult.
“It is quite an important issue, but I do not believe it exceeds the need to stop Iran from nuking us in terms of importance”
Well, the open border was real, and Iran nuking us is not, so there’s that.

People have been struggling lately, and it’s easy to blame the person in charge, which leads to TDS. I know I’ve fallen into that trap on occasion, and I consider myself Trump’s #1 supporter. I would suggest less name-calling and more listening and understanding about where they’re coming from. Then you can send them resources to provide a more complete picture that doesn’t rely on bashing Trump.
You already mentioned the problem in your question... We’re being attacked by Trump hating rats. It’s as simple as that.
You have closed your eyes to the wealth of information available that shows Trump certainly deserves a hard look by the Congress for impeachment and removal but given their complicity in themsleves being comprised by foreign interests it is actually appraoching the moment where only a Martial Law with arrest of a majority of this Administration, prior 2 DNC Admins, and the Congress and Senate to include the various departments be hauled before military tribunals.
