    It made no sense to fight it. The idea was sound, but the execution was too hard to swallow.

      Wasn't really the best idea to begin with but at least they're smart enough to know when to fight their battles on other hills.

        So when Trump sticks to his guns on an issue, liberals call him a tyrant. When he relents, liberals say he's weak.

        Whatever, man.
        Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
        But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
        Than a fool in the eyes of God

              Trump isn't your beloved tyrant yet MM, he's a lucky to be in office wannabe tyrant.

                    Spoken like someone who never had the chance to get tired of all the winning.

                    And how could you, given Trump's expertise at losing?
