Trump will not be re-elected. Sorry

You are correct that Yidden should be thankful for the few positives achieved by the Trump administration but you correctly note that these are the exceptions. The economy is beginning to tank (as many predicted), the Stock Market is DOWN since the tax bill became law, we have alienated EVERY ally in the world except for the countries run by Trumpkopf wannabes (Turkey, Philippines, Saudi Arabia) and of course Russia and North Korea. The deficit is expanding out of control since the tax cut but suddenly Republicans say it doesn’t matter. Most of the responsible members of the cabinet have been fired or resigned, others have been forced to resign over lying and stealing from public ffunds leaving dunces like Carson, Dev Vos etc to run the show Mueller hasn’t even reported yet. Most of all, the racist stench and vulgarity emanating from the Oval Office has resulted in a massive increase in hate crimes and historic divisions in our country. Otherwise, we should be glad to vote for 4 more years of the same..

Blah blah blah yada yada yada
Yawn

GH:

I find your comment repulsive and dishonest. While I was a Trump voter, I am not without valid complaints about him. I am quite upset with how he is handling many things in his presidency,, and will not whitewash his performance because of those areas in which I am displeased.

Your observation that he lacks much of the refinement that one would expect from someone occupying the highest office in the land is valid. He lacked it as a candidate, and after taking office, it improved only a little. You levy accusations at him that are repeated by the press, and there is no more truth when they try to inject it into peoples thoughts and mouths than when you repeat it.

Trump is not a racist, and he has zero to do with the hate crimes or terror acts around the world. It is a dirty lie to blame him. His mouth, as noted above, is not refined, and he chooses his expressions poorly. His impulsivity in tweeting is frankly abhorrent, but not racist. You are doing the liberal thing of playing the race card. Well, it is simply untrue.

Immigration is a huge problem, and the Dems refuse to deal with it. His stubborness about the wall is a problem, but not all his fault. Can the Dems accept something about border security? So far, they reject everything. That does not make Trump a racist. Nor does it explain hate crimes. Dems just want to slash law enforcement and open the borders. I choose Trump on these issues any day.

Trump is a CEO, and a bullyish one. Working with him has its challenges, and it is affecting the administration badly. I am bothered that the Republicans have a history of connecting with the greatest minds for advice and guidance, and basing hirings and appointments on that. Dems do not do that as a rule, and hand out jobs like candy to their donors, regardless of their expertises. Just review the past 50 years of presidents. Trump took mostly good people, but was murder to work with. Such a shame. It is not his policies that pushed him to this point.

Please check facts before writing. The racist claims are nonsense and baseless. MSM believes that if you repeat it often enough, lame brains will believe it, and they succeeded at it. Be a bit smarter than that. There are enough valid complaints with Trump. Stick to those.

1. I think Trump should be re-elected

2. I think it’s unlikely that he will be re-elected

3. I thought he had close to no chance of being elected in the first place

Consider #3 when considering #2

For a change I agree with Joseph. What is remarkable and defies understanding (at least to us “libs”) is the nearly constant 35-45 percent approval ratings he gets in the polls. There is clearly a hard core base of support that may not budge no matter what he does. The Dems challenge will be to come together and motivate the other 55-65 percent of voters to turn out and elect an alternative. Problem, of course, is that the Dems will more likely form a circular firing squad as they typically do, fail to converge early on one of their younger and more charismatic candidates (aka NOT Beto, Bernie or Biden) and work to defeat Trump. If I was to bet now, I would say the likelihood of 4 more years of the Trumpkopf is about 50-50. As to his being a racist, I believe he truly does feel that his 1950s/60s vintage notions of “traditional America” is threatened by the reality of whites becoming a minority in the U,S. within a decade or two. He is not as verbally explicit as some of the racist leaders that have emerged in Eastern Europe (Hungary, Poland) for he proclaims great admiration but his advocacy of “really fine people” among the white supremacist demonstrators and calling himself a “nationalist” should be sufficient cause for concern.

Trump is not a racist,, but he condones them so they think he is part of them.

laskern,
You’re probably implying the white supremicists, whom Trump never condoned. Given our history, it’s not surprising that we Jews fear them. But in reality, they’re outnumbered by the current anti- Semites from circles of varied races and viewpoints. Jewish college students across the country are assaulted by the radical progressive libs.. Influential groups such as BLM, Women’s Gestapo orgs., political groups and such, are overwhelmingly not white supremacists, and are openly anti-Semitic. Let’s recognize the new enemy for what he/she is.. It ‘s not the German Aryan at the moment.

Clearly the last election was a vote against trump, The GOP did terrible and the only reason it wasnt worse is because the seats were Gerrymandered to favor the GOP and they still lost 40 seats (and could lose another one in NC)

It is not becoming of a President to be a Twitter Troll. Its one thing if I call somone a loser on Twitter, its quite another if the President does so

Didn’t anyone learn any lessons from the 2016 election? Trying to predict what will happen in the 2020 election will have about as much accuracy as trying to now predict the weather in November 2020. Don’t you realize how fickle the American voter is and the slightest bit of news can make people change their minds? Logic has nothing to do with it.

Based on what everyone is saying here, the ironic best solution would be for the Democrats to go through with their threats to impeach Trump and remove him from office, and then have Pence take over. Pence might make a harder candidate to beat than Trump in 2020, especially if Trump supporters are really mad at the Democrats. At least he does’t have the personal flaws and twiiter trigger finger that Trump has. I have a feeling some Democrats may be smart enough to realize this, and now that they actually can carry out their threat in the House, the calls for impeachment will die down.

laskern,
The other side, Antifa, were the ones that began the violence. He them out when the fake media never said a word. The same group that took over the streets in Oregon… ultra leftist anarchists.

He picked a terrible cabinet. He was supposed to drain the swamp and he surrounded himself with the most swampy people in the country. The fact that he’s had to fire half of them isn’t doing him any favors either.

I am not sorry, I am thrilled that there is little chance of Trump having 8 years in office.
I laugh at most of the comments in this thread.
The majority of posters live in the northeast where the 2016 vote had nothing to do with Trump. WE, the voters of these districts, continued to elect and reelect Democrats as we have done for many years.
Our civil rights and protections in the USA have been brought to us by Democrats (Civil Rights Act of 64-LBJ and a Dem Congress).
Post WWII Republican administrations have brought us economic downturns.

Changing the plaque on a consulate to read embassy is meaningless when we harm Israel by removing US forces from Syria.

The sooner Trump is gone from the White House the better off the country will be.

@NevilleChaimBerlin

We don’t know that the 2020 election will be about Trump. It;s likely, but many things could occur that change the focus of an election.

Who knows, he might be out of office by then………………

I can only say, ‘Rome is burning and Nero is fideling’.

I agree with Neville that he picked a mostly swamp-croc cabinet, and they didn’t do him any favors.

YWN mods? Seriously, that PC edit? We all know what type of immigrants people are upset about, and if cha”v people ever investigate which nationality (ours) passed the 1965 Immigration act, they’ll be coming with pitchforks to the yidden…

America is not was not, and cannot stay a nation of immigrants. It is a lie that many white chrsitians are fed up with and if they don;t get the wall, their next target will be us…

RY – if you found the country you’re not an immigrant. Your a founder. You may be an immigrant to the land, but not to the country. And America is (or was) a Christian country, before the secular Jewish orgs banned religion in Public Schools and destroyed our morality.

If your a guest in a country, it’s never a wise move to make laws prohibiting your hosts religion and ridiculing their moral beliefs as backwards, which is what all the lefty orgs are doing.

Yeshivishrockstar, then if they go to war and create a new government, it’s fine?

The ban on prayer in pubic school is only on the government selecting and leading prayers. Students and teachers are free to pray to their heart’s content – but they can’t require others to join them. The standard for student prayer is “reasonable accommodation”. The past practice of having the teachers lead Protestant prayers was the problem.

Akuperma, Engel dealt with a non-denominational prayer. The text was “Almighty Gd, we acknowledge our dependence upon Thee, and we beg Thy blessings upon us, our parents, our teachers and our country. Amen”

CTL,

1. You wrote “The US Supreme Court found prayer in public school to be unconstitutional in the case brought by Madeline Murray O’Hare and the US atheists, not Jews”. “Prayer” includes both official and non-official. BTW, her name was actually spelled Madalyn Murray O’Hair.

2. Her suit (technically her son’s), Murray vs. Curlett, was consolidated with Abington School District v. Schempp, 374 U.S. 203 (1963), which was decided one year after Engel. As official prayer had already been declared unconstitutional it only dealt with compulsory Bible reading, which is also struck down. Interestingly, her son later rebelled against her. According to the Wikipedia, William J. “Bill” Murray III (born May 25, 1946) is an American author, Baptist minister, and social conservative lobbyist who serves as the chairman of the Religious Freedom Coalition, a non-profit organization in Washington, D.C. It lobbies Congress on issues related to aiding Christians in Islamic and Communist countries.”

3. Are you saying that amicus briefs are a waste of time?

“Women’s Gestapo orgs”

??? Was that an auto-correct from something, or is this just a
case of me not being up-to-date on America’s culture wars?

Continuing tensions between government “establishment/promotion” of religion practices versus more modern laws requiring reasonable “accommodation” of religious practice. Sadly, the two issues get morphed by both sides in the ongoing culture wars.
