There’s nothing self righteous about it. Marriage is not dealing with liberals unless you really made a dumb move and married one.

Running a company and running a country arent remotely in the same ballpark. Every time a company is filled with liberals, that company has problems. Look what happened to Apple recently. Their projections arent so great.

A boss and a President are somewhat comparable. But a Boss makes the calls and does not have an entire legislative branch there to veto.

A legislative branch, I would add, that is the creation of lesser evil stupidity.

So tell me. What did dealmaking with liberals result in for Mitch and Jonbon?

What did it result in for GWB?

What did it result in for GHWB?

What did it result in for Ronaldus?

I’ll tell you what because you obviously forgot. It all resulted in less liberty. Less cash for the taxpayer’s family, Less babies to populate the country, less good men and women now dead in Iraq, Lybia and the Stans. Less of everything good, right and just and more of everything bad, wrong and evil.

And just because it’s Trump matters not. He’s one man. And he isn’t playing with dealmakers. He would be playing with 500 people determined to screw him and us.

Sure we compromise. We decide every day what color socks to wear, which car to take to work and what day to mow the lawn. Do you ‘compromise when your 14 year old daughter tells you she is sleeping at her boyfriend’s house? No? Why not? Don’t be a self righteous tyrant! Do you compromise when your buddy takes your boat out to pick up chicks on the weekend you planned to take the family to the lake? Why not? Don’t be so self righteous!

Or do you grasp the simple concept that compromising larger issues is ALWAYS a bad idea and causes problems?

Go ahead. SHOW ME where America EVER benefits in these high level giveaways to liberals. You sure as hell can’t point to one in the last 7 years.

You are exactly right Norm.. I like to put it this way.

You either stand for something, or you stand for nothing.

We have been fighting every election to eliminate linguini spined compromisers.. We currently have a house and senate full of them, despite every effort we have made.

What made Obama so dangerous was that he did not compromise his positions on anything. He does not make deals, he tells the republicans what he wants and then attacks them in speeches and the willing sycophant press until they do his bidding. if there is any compromises, they are insignificant.

So how do you counter that?

You do it by replacing him with a man who will act on our behalf in the same way that Obama acts for his Marxist supporters. You replace him with a man who's end game is to return the US to a constitutional republic, and not continue to degrade it. The man who can do this needs a conservatively principled understanding and mindset.

If we fail here, to do this. We may well have sealed the fate of the US.

This is the man I intend to vote for.

You’re hopeless - you now want to equate moral compromise with political compromise?

And marriage IS a two way street, whose facets go beyond whether your spouse holds opposite political views ... But for the sake of argument, why would any thinking man place himself in such an awkward position, unless he was thinking with the wrong “head”?

Obviously moral and philosophical comparability matters in a marriage - particularly for the sake of the children created by that union. So, I suspect you are putting up a straw-man argument here. The bottom line is that while it is true one must compromise on many things in life, I neither directly stated nor implied that morals were up for such treatment.

Oh, BTW - do you think Ronald Reagan made no compromises? As I recall, Reagan enacted amnesty to illegals in exchange for a promise of securing the border - too bad that Tip O’Neil was such a blatantly dishonest pig ... but Reagan trusted him. So was Ronaldus Maximus a dummy?

And how may employees does Donald Trump oversee in some capacity? How many subordinates does he direct? How many customers must he consider in his myriad of decisions. Oh, you think that these individuals have not personalities? You believe they are without intelligence and contribution? They are all just mindless drones taking orders from “the boss”? I find it both revealing and amazing the shallow opinion you hold towards the lives of other people.

And, BTW, just who elected those 500 individuals to office?

You go too far in your presumptions as to what I imply by compromise. Just as your rigid adherence to ideology puts you right up there with Obama. The fact is that one may compromise on some things without surrendering principle or moral integrity. But, I suppose, that is a concept that you and others are either incapable of comprehending or else too blindly obstinate to admit.
