Members RA1 Posted November 28, 2019 Members Posted November 28, 2019 24 minutes ago, OhPlease said: I honestly don’t understand lifelong conservative Republicans like @RA1 (whom I respect for their position) can honestly look at what Donald Trump is doing to this country and standby and support him. While I have been at times completely consumed and infatuated by certain sexual assault relationships I have had in my lifetime - never did I sacrifice my self worth for any of them. ( ok there was one. Ok perhaps two) but never were they Systematically destroying the democracy of which we have always lived in and known. I don’t understand how old school Republicans like RA1 can support this president. Jim Jones should’ve been enough for all of us. I appreciate your respect for my position. Thanks. However, I do not support this President, only what he has affirmatively accomplished. I do not like his tweets, his disavowing of other's positions, etc. But, I am against the socialism as spoken by most of the Democratic possible nominees. This is a capitalistic republic and DT is mostly supporting that ideal I abhor the divide that is now among us all. This is no way to accomplish what needs to be done. Best regards, RA1

RA1 No. I mean all 3 branches operating in good faith, under rule of law. That truly has happened, at various times in the past. Proving it is still possible today. I find your suspicion of motive valuable, but your unwavering cynicism not so much so.

I am nothing if not cynical. If you always expect the worst, you will never be surprised. However, I always hope for the best, no matter how far fetched it might appear to be. Tell me you have NEVER taken an opposing view for the sake of education. Best regards, RA1 AdamSmith 1

That’s a very useful insight that I confess never having recognized. Even though, on recognition now, I do do it. I can be so slow sometimes!
