My bad. I was still thinking you were on about ME being a centrist.
Ice is biased, I am biased, you are biased.

Its a lot more unbiased than getting down on your knees and cupping trumps balls when he takes a dump, which seems to be the current theme with trump supporters.
Never see such a large group of blind devotees who see no bad in some one so flawed.
Even jesus got crucified eventually.


Bob Corker is right on the money: Republican support of Trump is cult-like.

If North Korea fails to denuclearize, could this be Trump's "Mission Accomplished?" He seems to be prematurely celebrating denuclearization and comes across as desperate for an immediate political victory.

Trump prematurely celebrates everything, what's new?

/e And yes after the left, the media, Mueller etc., have been tearing him apart since he won the election, I would imagine he DOES want an immediate victory. Who wudda thunk? :/

Many presidents before Trump wanted to solve the NK issue, some steered entirely away from this issue. I'm curious in your opinion why does Trump need to get them to denuclearize or otherwise his supporters would leave him? Do you hold Trump to some higher standard of accomplishment that you didn't hold his predecessors?

Doesn't matter, he has his shills on lockdown, the good news is he will not get a second term as long as the democrats put something vaguely human out there.
Because the real republicans will stay home, and the dems will turn out in droves.

I'm glad you at least admit that. If denuclearization of North Korea occurs, it's probably going to require arduous, specific, and strategic diplomacy, and Trump should receive a lot of credit at that point.

However, lavishing unnecessary praise toward Kim and prematurely celebrating probably does our country's interests no good.

Politically speaking, if North Korea doesn't actually denuclearize, Trump could appear foolish for prematurely celebrating. A political debacle, Mission Accomplished II.

There's no upside of prematurely celebrating unless it's to gain political points in the short-term or the North Koreans gave him specifics on denuclearization that we don't know about yet.

Prematurely celebrating is what trump DOES. Whether you like it or not. Positing that this will cause damage is ludicrous. He's prematurely celebrated everything he's done since he took office, no harm yet.
If they do denuke, he wins. If they don't denuke he still wins cause he was the first to have the sit down.

Attempting to belittle what he HAS already done in achieving the sit down... kinda makes ya look biased. ^^
