wes--why can't liberty tell trump what he'd better do--who works for who(m)? He might now "bow to ultimatums", but I think he'd better remember who brought him there and why they did. And FWIW, it's to represent the will of the people, not to rule by decree. This is democratic republic after all.

he can tell him whatever he wants to tell him, I just don t think that it is wise or useful.

we gave him the job and now it is his. advice? sure. advice in the form of an ultimatum? unwise, in my view.

we sent him there and we , in four years, can send him packing.

we were the boss until we made him the boss.

maybe it is just semantics, but liberty seemed like a bully to me when he couched his advice in the language that he used.

He's the boss? You and I have a very different view of the presidency.

well, he, the congress, and the courts are the boss.

we are the board of directors. we can remove most of them if they don t perform up to our standards. they can remove each other, in special circumstances and with great effort.

I don t think that we see it that differently, perhaps I just expressed myself poorly.

In glancing around this forum room, it looks like "Politics" has gone to an "All Wes All The Time" format...

I was waiting for someone else to point that out . . . looks like we're going to be subject to a regular onslaught of redneck* political wisdom thanks to Trump's victory.

Another reason to hate Trump.

Don't blame Trump because a know nothing doofus thinks because he voted for the right candidate gives him the right to dictate what goes on in this forum.

I'm sure (even though I hope otherwise) that trump will give us many valid reasons for our derision

have I gloated?

have I rubbed it in?

I hope not..., would you have extended the same courtesy to me?

am I the barbarian? am I the derider?

am I the nattering naybob of negativism?

I am hopeful, that is all.

I m sorry that you I offend you.

No you didn't you lying piece of shit. I think liberty is wrong in just about every thing but I don't say he can't say it. And you twice siad that an anti lesbian for hints discussion didn't count because you didn't agree with a valid description .

So (as I just said in another thread)...our best hope, our ONLY hope, is that Trump didn't really mean what he said, out loud, on the record, over and over again... :roll: :arg

I worked for thirty years . I have medicare now.

but go ahead and criticize , I m ok with that.

the fact that I was not working almost drove me to suicide a few years ago, but I m ok with it now, so do your worst.

it was waaay too much for a piece of plastic and foam with a few straps but for 294 I was happy to get it.

now that I see how it is made I can fabricate my own next time, when this one wears out.

I may go back for the free tune-ups and adjustments, or I may just do them myself, I haven t decided yet.

add a little memory foam here and there..., trim a little plastic...

easy peasy.

ps. why are you such a dick?
So you've got a brace, not an actual exoskeleton.  And why didn't you be a good Trumpketeer, take "personal responsibility" for your own medical care, and pay for the whole damned thing instead of expecting taxpayers (yes, TAXPAYERS) to fund 83% of it for you?

As to why I am such a dick .... I guess it's the same reason Trump is the way he is.  It's just the way I am, and I've been like this for over 40 years when confronted with people like you.
