[The Outsider]

I do not see you disputing the facts on the way he has operated is businesses.  I believe that his character flaws have much to do with his businesses failing over time and I believe that we are seeing the same pattern with his Presidency, which went pretty well for a period of time, but inevitably derailed.  If he had 4 more years, it's untelling how large the national deficit would grow and how much further the country would be divided under his lack of leadership.

BTW, I'm a lifelong Republican who does not drink the kool aid and who hopes that Trump has not destroyed the Party.

Well then let me make it more clear. I don't dispute the way you think he operated his businesses. I do dispute the accuracy of the charges being made, and to which you have accepted on face value. I've been in business myself and I can tell you innocent business people are sometimes victimized by the people they trust most. The characterizations made by those who charge such improprieties are often made to justify their own questionable shenanigans.

I believe you who crow about not drinking the kool aid, are in fact yourself awash in it. There are people I respect who know DJT more intimately, and they do not agree that he is some kind of shyster. My assessment of the President is based solely on his performance, and I do not see him the way you do. Frankly I trust my own judgment on this matter. There is the record after all, to which I have paid close attention. In the media there are those such as Mark Levin, Lou Dobbs, and notable others, and then there are those in the Senate and the House whose judgments I consider to be sage, all of whom agree with me.

I will take a President who is convicted that it is the people to whom he is beholden, being as we are a self governing society, anytime over bozos like Schiff, Schumer, Nadler, and Pelosi et-al. I don't need them to tell me what to do on any thing. In fact they should do what the people tell THEM to do.

You can say what you want, getting on here and cheerleading for Biden-Harris to pack the court, and tear down the wall, and open up the borders, enact the Green New Deal, and feather the nest of every special interest group coming and going, and kiss back up to Iran and China is Republican-wise, very suspect in my book.

I'm hoping that Biden will lean a lot more toward the center and not listen to the radical left when implementing his policies, then maybe the country can come together to a degree.  Then in 4 years, the GOP can pick a real Conservative as their candidate and they should be able to defeat Harris or whoever else the Dems run. 

Trump really wants his daughter to follow him and become the first female President, so if he avoids the personal financial catastrophe he appears to be facing after leaving office, he may be on the ticket again in 2024 with her as his running mate.  Heaven help the GOP is this happens.
