I have always made a distinction in my life between enjoying movies, and certain movies in particular versus the movie awards shows. There are always a few good movies in any year, and always not necessarily the movies the Hollyweird crowd (the academy voters) like the most. I always really don’t give a tinkers dam what movies the Hollyweird crowd likes. And even when they award a movie I do like, I do not think more of that movie and I never think more of them.

Hollyweird and the movie awards shows - during most of my adult life - never fail to trash this country and the majority of its people, in some fashion or other. And that is not just with the MC, or the presenters or with those who make speeches when they get an award. It is with the Hollweird audience at the show, and the disgusting crap the majority of them applaud to. That says it all as far as who Hollyweird is.

Okay, fine.

I just thought you might like to see Trump win the election.

You want Trump to conceal who and what he is to get elected.

I want Trump to remain who and what he is to get elected.

Trump can be just as civil and nice as you want him to be, but you appear to believe that if he is, he will be presented by the media as that inauthentic facade you wish him to be instead of who he is.

I believe a “kinder and gentler” Trump will not soften the harsh, untruthful light that the media seeks to portray him in, and would negate his strength.

Trump’s draw is his authenticity. When someone asked him about Israel-Gaza last week, he said, without sticking his finger in the air, “Israel should finish the job.”

Any other politician is going to say mushy crap. Trump said it as he felt it should be, and didn’t check the polls, the wind, or any focus groups for the right verbiage.

And even if he did, it would not compel the Media to present him to the electorate in any way different from the negative way they are. Playing that political game is a losing game, and dishonest to boot. And it is naiveté that plays right into the hands of the enemy.

Yeah, women love Dems calling everyone a racist, Nazi, homophobe, etc.

They love it! Chuck Schumer attacking Suprene Court judges makes them swoon.

Illegals murdering Americans makes women all excited.

I’m no misogynist. I love women - especially when they bring me a beer and a sandwich.

I see what you did there ;-)

Is this response because you are offended because you wish a relationship with Jimmy Kimmel or that you want Trump to give the left more ammunition that they can use against him dishonestly?

Trump didn’t say anything personal about anyone.. He said the program was boring. And it was!
The problem with those kind liking Trump.. He’d have to be as empty and rude as they are and he’d have to remove any Godly reference in life.

I want Trump to remain who and what he is to get elected.

Assuming he wins the nom (and that appears likely) I want Trump to be elected.

A few concerns. From Trump's election in 2016, the electorate has changed by almost half a generation. Many of my contemporaries (70+ years of age, veterans, educated to think for ourselves, and recalling a wonderful, sunny, safe, and patriotic time in our Country's great past) have sadly "gone west". And, those "kids" who were between 12 and 17 at the time (and who do not know true history and never watch or read anything that Trump or Conservatives produce and who think that climate change is the crisis of our time) will now be voting. It's a different electorate.

Much of elections, especially in the electronic age, is now a beauty contest. Appearance (attractive, youthful, dynamic) means votes. This is why I'm inclined to suspect that the Dems have no intention of Biden actually running.

Trump, for his part, needs to look at Reagan (and even Eisenhower) for how to act and what to say, IF he wants to win. Wisdom, restraint, absence of insults, and working to build a relationship with those he's thrown off the island would be a good start.

That said, negatives are difficult to erase, and he just keeps piling them on.
