All? Some? A little?

I've never seen a forum with 100% objective analysis.

Plenty of left leaning views are presented here

And yes, a political message board full ofcollege football fans from the deep South is mostly full of conservative viewpoints

Hasanyone alerted Reuters?

Fine.....but why just call out the trump posters on here?

The vast majority of anti-trump posters on here are very similar in how hackish they ar e

Why isn’t that an issue too if you care about board objectivity?

There is a significant difference between “I see your point, but disagree for the following reasons ...” and “die, you filthy, libtard cuck!”

Guilty as charged, and I don't care.

After YEARS of being helpless watching spineless Establishment Republicans doing nothing but campaigning for their seats, all the while the country was spiraling down the drain thanks to Liberal retarded policies that weakened us in every way... internally, internationally, economically, socially.

Trump is rude and crass and a bull-in-a-China-shop and sometimes he says things that I know are total bullshite (i.e. 'largest this or that', 'best this or that ever, ...). But I voted for him to do THREE things and THREE things only:
1. To keep an absolute CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE out of the White House;
2. To keep activist judges out of our judiciary;
3. To unleash the the American economy like we knew it could if not for Liberal stupidity.

HE HAS MET THOSE CRITERIA IN SPADES. And 'Yes', he could literally shite on his desk on national TV and I would not care so long as the above 3 were still progressing as they are.

Considering all the illegal, underhanded, self-serving shite the Clintonistas were doing to grab power, and I can say with all my heart and soul: THE ELECTION OF DONALD J. TRUMP SAVED OUR COUNTRY! usa:

Two responses.

First, the Trump hacks attack and deride the Dem hacks AND the objective voices, while the (few) Dem hacks mostly attack only the Trump sycophants.

Second, the Dem hacks are so few in number that the Trump hacks tend to drown them out to the point that one barely notices them.

Yeah, there are some people who cannot discuss issues at all. There's no doubt about it. Blind allegiance is a pretty serious problem and you get a handful of folks here who are totally worthless at any type of discussion.

Fine,

I'll start the olive branch extending.

I like to read the posts of several posters who are left of my views: Juice Terry, Machine, AggieHank, the TigerinDC guy, Brian Wilson and others I'll recognize later have always been fair and square with me.

Filter the BS and deal with the competent posters who can communicate on your level.

Much closer to the former than the latter. Of course, I also see you (most times) as one of the more-objective posters. Sometimes you go off the rails, like anyone (me included) but mostly I see you as a pretty good poster.

"Country is going to shite"

Let's see:
Unemployment LOW
Economy growing
Finally addressing the illegals
Deep state (the real problem) is getting exposed
Trade becoming fairer
The US not acting like a pussy on the world stage
Climate change hoax (if a person believes in it they need a clue and a brain) getting exposed. It's CLIMATE it always changes

Now for the therapy. There is a thread now about Schumer threatening Trump not to pardon Manafort. A number of known Trump supporters suggested that Schumer is trying to bait Trump, and the upvote:downvote ratio on their posts is about 3:1. I said the same thing ... first ... and at last count the downvote ratio was 13:1.

The bulk of posters on this forum will not even LISTEN to someone they perceive as a dissenting voice to the cult of their God-Emperor.

This board's intelligence and conversational depth has greatly declined.

I wonder who rose up in politics that coincided with this decline?

I created a thread on tRant that was simply a link to a Go Fund Me page for an ex Ole Miss basketball player who was dying of brain cancer.

Got downvoted. What can you do?
