True enough.

More and more, it appears that Dubya was “part of the club”.

Shapiro has good moments, but terrible instincts.

Reminds me of Ted Cruz and i’m a Cruz supporter.

Me neither. ROTFL He just tweeted that those four are liberal cranks and they are the reason we need directions on shampoo bottles.

Trump’s tweet just took an excellent week and made it even better.

After last night's chaos on the HoR floor, I honestly don't see how anyone can see it any other way! Trump just continues to drive the wedge between the Dummicrats and exposes them for all to see.

Sorry for the double post. Internet is acting flaky this morning.

Those who whine about Trump in this way respect the America haters way too much

Trump can tweet and fix the country at the same time at the very least. At best he is forcing the Dems to show that the fascists are defat in charge and would take over if any of the quislings won the presidency

“Also as president he has a duty to point to those who HATE”

And there’s nothing wrong with Trump giving his opinion or advice to his constituents.

I quit reading at the second sentence.

I mistakenly thought Ben may have come to his senses, clearly he hasn’t.

The first amendment there precisely for saying things someone doesn’t want said. Popular speech and careful speech don’t need protection.

So true. I really doubt if this guy is really conservative.

There’s no doubt in my mind that Trump’s tweet was a calculated move, precipitated by the media reports the previous day of the internal Democrat polls showing Ilhan Omar with a 9% — yes, NINE PERCENT — among swing voters.

What Shapiro apparently doesn’t realize is that Trump posted a sentiment that 95% of Americans have felt at some time or another in their lives. What’s the downside of tweeting something that reinforces that?

I may be a little more favorable toward Ben Shapiro than others here, but in this case he is totally wrong.

No matter what the president says, the media always takes him out of context. In this case they are reporting that he told the Jihad Squad to “go home!” and of course this was raaacisssssst!

But reality is, he said go home and fix the problems there and then come back and show us how to do it. What racist says “go home and then come back”?

Exactly how we ended up with the Kenyan from Indonesia usurping the Presidency.

Nobody wanted to hurt his feelings (or other ineligibles) by telling him he was ineligible.

Hey Ben...how’s your girlfriend, Michelle Fields?

What about it?

So, without Trump’s tweets, how are we supposed to know what’s going on? Watch the news? That’s a joke.

Remember the bruhaha with Michelle Fields, Corey Lewendowski and Ben Shapiro? That's what I was referring to...another one of Ben's silly maneuvers.

"Michelle Fields, Ben Shapiro Resign From Breitbart"

Exactly. What Shapiro misses is that even if it is not acceptable "in polite company" to say certain things, that doesn't mean a whole lot of people aren't thinking it. And Trump taps into that.
