    You get what you deserve Jim or are you the only one that can attack and Trump is supposed to take it to the chin, like a good spineless Republican? You called him a psychopath, with zero evidence, why should I feel sorry for you?
    Yes, he is supposed to take it. At least to the point he does not publicly and before the entire nation debase an entire group of people merely because they despise his policies. Did Hillary stoop to such a public, nationwide denigration of those that oppose her and would never vote for her? Did Obama? Did Bush? Did Reagan? Did Bill Clinton?
    My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

    If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

    This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

      Day by day, we're learning that a large set of people don't actually want a president that governs a diverse country; they want a brawler-king who does what he wants and crushes their enemies in the process.

      Nah, he just sued Nuns, so he can make them pay for abortions, which is oh so much better.

        The first question asked in cross examination of a psychologist on the stand is, "how much time have you spent examining my client in person"?
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            Contraceptives and you're still wrong. That was the Little Sisters of the Poor suing the government because the organization didn't want to sign a form that released it from providing contraceptives in its insurance plan.

                And the reason they should be forced to pay is....

                  They weren't. There was a religious exemption available. Some religiously-affiliated groups (e.g., Little Sisters, Notre Dame) didn't want to sign the exemption form because that would allow the government to contract with a third party to provide contraceptive care for the affected employees.

                  Learn about the case so you avoid making things up as you go!

                      Given your use of the word here, I have to assume that you don't know what "misinformation" means, since your original contention was that:

                      1) Obama sued "nuns"
                      2) To make them pay for abortions

                      Both statements are factually incorrect.

                        This is what the sitting president said about people like me yesterday:

                        "The Never Trumper Republicans, though on respirators with not many left, are in certain ways worse and more dangerous for our Country than the Do Nothing Democrats. Watch out for them, they are human scum!" he tweeted.

                        Oh no, Trump insulted you! And now we must insult him back!

                        Seriously, Jim, your obsession with Trump can't be healthy. I really do think you need to disconnect from politics for a while and reassess your priorities.

                            Any medical professional who would attempt to make a long-distance diagnosis without a first-hand examination is not worth taking seriously.

                            But they tell you what you want to hear, so that's good enough as far as you're concerned.

                                You equate either of those with a president calling people "human scum"?

                                I think that gives folks a pretty good baseline read on you without much further effort.

                                And, my oh my, do I recall folks here reacting to both those statements by Obama and Clinton. They certainly were not shrugged off.
