Excusing un on this is unconscionable. The offense is at the act itself. It wouldn't matter who committed it. The problem as it relates to Trump is that he does things like this continously.

Originally posted by Catholicity View PostWell it was ok when Bush Did it right? (Bush was a conservative) It wasn't OK when Obama continued it (he was a democrat) And now that Trump is catering to N. Korea Its fine because the Liberals hate Trump. Right ok Got it. The utter hypocrisy of The far right never ceases to impress.
And BTW when John Kerry met privately with the Viet-Cong many were all to happy to call him a Traitor well in to his very late career. And people are still happy to call him a traitor. Trump acting in very similar ways gets him hailed a hero. Nope this makes me gag.
2. John Kerry is a private citizen and can’t legally make those kind of deals with a foreign government.
3. Trump walked out, he obviously isn’t catering to them with such a move.
If giving the fat man praise prevents me from attending the funerals of my dead friends, that’s fine by me."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

"I want the amendment to pass, so that the Constitution's first and only mention of slavery is its absolute prohibition. For this amendment, for which I have worked all my life and for which countless colored men and women have fought and died and now hundreds of thousands of soldiers... No, sir, no, it seems there's very nearly nothing I won't say."Last edited by Mountain Man; 03-08-2019, 07:57 AM.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

How much lower do you plan to go looking for justifications for your glorious leader?
