    Man, Shep Smith is the only person who I respect at Fox News. He's called them on their bullshit repeatedly over the years, and I'm glad he's still doing it.

    He donated to Hillary's campaign. of course he dislikes trump and will say all manner of things to criticise him.

    fwiw, trump is 100% right about the media these days. Even the BBC leans left on almost every issue and is 100% partisan in its coverage and reporting. it's not a bad thing. but it's certainly true and it's good people are finally noticing and realising it.

    trump speaks his mind. it's refreshing and it's a good thing. his approval rating is like 55% or something, which is good and that's because he speaks the truth on nearly every subject.

    The only place I found that was talking about Shep donating to Hillary was on /r/The_Donald, and even they were talking about how there's no proof of it.

    When even that cesspool of stupid is skeptical about a claim, you know it's probably total bullshit.

    Unless you have some sauce for it.

    The rest of your post seems largely like an extension of the persecution complex that Trump and his supporters seem to have right now. Except for the hilarious Rasmussen poll numbers, which are well off of every other polling firm which is putting Trumps approval rating closer to 40%.

    Thats an odd way to write '39%'.

    using biased polls in 2017. guess the terminology fake news is staying with us. Thank trump for bringing it to our attention.

    also the "hilarious" polls you talk about are the only polls which put trump and Hillary within 2 points of each other for the presidential election. maybe it's time to believe polls which don't blindly follow your narrative?

    So the guy who spent much of his 2 hour "press conference" repeating demonstrable lies is trustworthy, got it : )

    also idk why there's so much hatred towards trump (and that's what it is, pure vile hatred). surely you would wish your president the best possible tenure he could have given that.... him doing well is tied to how well the country does. if trump fails, America fails basically. I can't imagine anyone who would want that unless they hated America.

    He is not my president, and he is fucking with climate change, why should I like him?

    Speaking your mind is not a good thing, when what you say is lies, proof of hatred, proof of ignorance, or proof of self-obsession. Today, a reporter asked if he had any plans to meet with the CBC, the Congressional Black Caucus. He asked the reporter to set up a meeting. Guess what her ethnicity was?

    Tweeting in all caps does not make what you say a good thing.

    Turning a question about how he would address hate crime, into an answer about his E.C. result, is not a good thing Nor is lying about the E.C. numbers when he did that.

    "Speaking his mind" is the excuse you give for Ol Crazy Harry down by the wat'rin' hole, who just plain don' like women working.

    And would people stop cherry-picking the Rasmussen number? It's a far high outlier. His average is 42% and falling. Even FOX has him at 46%.

    Nobody is rooting for him to fail overall, only enough to get his ass booted out of office so we can get a psychologically stable person in. Pence, as terrifying as he is in terms of social and fiscal policy, is infinitely preferable to Trump.

    Not to mention Trump's nominees so far have been pretty terrifying as well.

    If anyone is rooting for America's failure, it's Trump. He's the one stacking the deck against success.

    Also, still waiting on sauce for you claim that Shep Smith donated to Hillary.

    With clinton winning the popular vote, I dont see how the polls where outside the margin of error.

    First of all, Pence.

    Second of all, my desire for Trump to fail is irrelevant. He's taking care of that without any hopes or prayers from me.

    Third of all, this country won't "fall" without a President, but it could with a stupid one who, for example, isolates us from the world, kills off trade, or gets us into a war we don't want and/or can't win. We're on course for possibly all three.

    And finally of all, I'm pretty sure I can love American without wanting Trump to be in charge of it. In fact, I'm doing it right now.

    This is a much better way to say what I just said. With even our gridlocked system, Trump can only fail enough to destroy the country, if
    a) the GOP flat-out lets him destroy trade, or
    b) he starts a war with someone we can't beat. And as an American, I admit such exists.

    Trump and his family have donated millions to Clinton Foundation...

    Bullshit... pointing out Trump's wrong doing is not a qualifier for the political spectrum. In fact, only Brietbart has an executive, who is now a Trump strategist. It's the only source that explicitly a strategic ally of Trump.

    trump speaks his mind. it's refreshing and it's a good thing. his approval rating is like 55% or something, which is good and that's because he speaks the truth on nearly every subject.
    That's the problem... speaking your mind and speaking the truth, are not synonymous. The above exposes your bias...

    @Tota this is where you argue with a Trump supporter like your self, but where he claims Trump is saying the truth, while you support him, because unlike Pence, Trump is lying. Sorry... support is not a word you like, but at the moment I can not think of a word that means the same, without meaning it.

    Good. Let's pray it does. Either that, I hope someone takes one for the team and assassinates him.

    Did you say the same thing about the Republicans over the last 8 years?

    So, what you're saying is...the Republicans that fought Obama at every single turn to specifically make his presidency a bad one were largely responsible for screwing America. And, further, that the dude currently in office was one of those people trying to hamstring Obama in any way he could, and was thus complicit in the negative position America is now in?
