    I don't see what the concern is here. If a Trump supporter wants to come on this thread and state why they think things are going well they are free to do so. Yes, they will face rebuttals, that should be expected. There is also nothing stopping someone who is in agreement with his policies or actions to come on here and rebut anyone who thinks otherwise. I think the main reason you don't see it happen very often is because it is hard to speak for anything he does because of the terrible person he is. You might as well go to the Bill Cosby or Harvey Weinstein threads and try to proclaim the great things they did and see where that gets you as well. Terrible people may momentarily be able to hide or conceal their true self by doing something that seems great, but that should not allow their acts to be forgiven or forgotten unless they make a change and seek forgiveness through acknowledgement of their misdeeds.
    Good point.
    And just for the record, I don't think Trump has done anything even remotely great besides market himself and sell his con to 40% of the country.
    Most of his "accomplishments" fell in his lap.  North Korea's testing facility destroyed itself.  Now they are using it as a way to get something from us and they will likely succeed.  They still know how to make a bomb and for all we know they have another underground site that is still functional.

    The tax cuts are nice in part.  I don't disagree that we needed them for the middle class but there is no dispute that this was a major tax cut for the top 1%.

    I don't think he deserves any consideration for the Nobel related to North Korea.  His twitter threats should put an end to any of that talk.
    How come no president prior never even came close to sitting down with North Korea?
    Did that fall in his lap too or did some of his ideas actually work.  
    Trump has been on quite a roll lately like it or lump it.
    Yes it fell in his lap.  You could argue that under his watch NK finalized their nuclear testing.  Now they have the information that they need.

    My opinion would be that NK sees an opportunity to take advantage of an idiot.  All they have to do to get his attention is say what a great guy he is.

Wouldn't that person deserve to get "slaughtered" for defending a serial sexual predator? Or what if someone came on here voicing support for, say, Hitler? Well, any Trump supporter is defending a serial sexual predator too, as well as a con man, a liar, someone who is tearing apart environmental protections, and someone who defends neo-Nazis and who fakes being religious. Why should anyone be expected to be cool with someone who defends all that? 
    Charles Manson seemed like a nice guy.

    I agree that NK plans on taking advantage of Trump. All that Trump has done is be such an egotistical, weak POTUS than the NK finally saw their opportunity to have some power over the USA's leader instead of the other way around. No previous POTUS has been a person who NK viewed as easy to manipulate.
    RYME, you must not be aware of just how much of a laughing stock Trump is in that part of the world.

    no one said it wasn't legitimate. look at tbergs post, then gern's reply, etc.  the point being made was that trump supporters are more than welcome to come here with their views. my point, which all of you are subsequently making, is that they are not. 
    Explain to me what you expect welcome to look like? They are not asked to leave or forced to leave. Yes, they will have to defend themselves just like any other thread here. If I go on the gun violence thread and proclaim that I love an Ar-15 just because it's fun to shoot, I am not going to be applauded for my view.

    Absolutely. It's clear that Trump is preparing to make this whole thing the main talking point for his own greatness in the next election campaign. If he doesn't make it work, he'll have nothing significant to spin for his dumbbell followers.

    Yeah, some seem to actually be putting their trust in Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump and their ability to be reasonable and do what's best for the greater good. :lol: It's like everyone's on E or something.

    "DO YOU KNOW ANY GOOD NAZIS?" "(INSERT RACIST BY ASSOCIATION CLAIM HERE!)" are but a few of the shoutings I've seen on AMT. 
    After torch carrying shield wielding nazi's invaded a progressive southern city, caused a riot, and murdered a protester... Donald Trump said there were "good people on both sides"... 

    Defend that all you want... it was a horrific, moronic, and hateful thing to say... I was putting that out as just one example, out of thousands, that Trump is a piece of shit that should not be supported by anybody... let's see that happen in your country and then see what you say

    But feel free to play the contrarian role, you're pretty good at it
    and how predictable. I KNEW someone was going to accuse me of being a trump supporter or apologist or defender. just didn't think it would happen that fucking quick. 

    what a joke. 
    That definitely was not my intention... i'm aware you think Trump is horrible and do not defend him in any way, ever, from what I can tell

    I've been through this with Mr Ryme before. He does not watch or read any news despite sharing the same talking points that appear on Fox and Friends every morning.


    It is an uncanny coincidence... the likes of which the world has never seen.

    I think they are just playing with him.  If tRump cancels (the exercises) then he's a puppet.  If he doesn't cancel then no peace prize.

    President Dumbass foiled again.

    My wife just got back from Scotland.  She encountered no tRump fans there.  Lots of people from Europe on the tours that they went on and it was unanimous that tRump is a fucking idiot.  They especially hate him in Scotland due to the golf course and due to Irn Bru being banned from his resort since it might stain his carpets.

    debating the issues, not yelling at people about how stupid/racist/complicit they are is what I consider "welcome".

    I rarely see that I guess. There might be inferences made based on certain statements of support that indicate a belief someone is coming off as racist or an apologist.
