Our Nation Divided

I'll be honest, I didn't read all of your post. More right wing crap...




 And now here we are, about to get a year full of reasons why it's all Obama's fault. 

It started with Pres. Bush Sr., and every President after him has been a member of the Free Masons, or the Illuminati.  They all had one main goal, and that was to usher in the NWO to the entire world to give government total control of the people.  

As for blaming Obama, I think the reason most people blame him is because he did things right out in the open. We (our government) had been so infiltrated by the time he got in office, there wasn't any need to hide it any longer.  Maybe it was also about "conditioning" the mind of the masses to accept what they were bringing.  

At the end of the day, being a libtard shill from the left, people are still pretty damn butt hurt about Senor Trump. And rather than try to find out why he won over Hillary they are uber focused on how she lost over him (and that's the problem). A week or so ago Obama made a comment about how he would've won (had he been eligible to run) and I believe it to be true. I also saw most on the right up in arms about how that was a "slap in the face to trump"...They couldn't be more wrong.

Sorry, but I think if Obama had run again, the results would have been the same.  People were fed up with what he was bringing to the table. Hillary said in a public statement that she would continue with his plans for America... and that is why she lost. He would have lost too!

As far as the hatred on social media? F'It. Most social media (even though people outside of your "circle" are generally included) is one big giant bubble. Even here (to an extent) is becoming a bubble. Just as other sites have become. There is an attitude and demeanor that is portrayed which generally leans one way or the other (rather than sway in the center) and it just is what it is. 

I agree people need to be more "centered".  I don't know about everyone else, but I couldn't ignore all the facts coming in about Hillary; all the people who have died that were connected to her in some way that could have blown the whistle on her "secrets"; her statement when Julian Assange pissed her off, "Can't we just kill him?"  That seemed to be her problem-solver to everything.  The evidence that showed she was using her Clinton Foundation for money laundering; accepting money from our enemy countries to fund her campaign; and much more that I won't go in to now.

She was disconnected from the "small man" in America, and most people couldn't relate to her.  Of course, all the immigrants or anyone getting help from the government were for her; they wanted to keep their meal ticket without having to work. And that was exactly part of the big plan. Hillary (or the Puppet Masters who pulled her strings) would have continued to send our jobs to other countries, causing more and more people to have to rely on government help.  If the government helps you survive, you aren't going to do anything that goes against them, right?
Don't bite the hand that feeds you!  
I think if things had progressed, it wouldn't be long before the majority of people were dependent on the government... right where they wanted them!  

Anyway... I'll stop here before I go into a rant.  

It's people like me that have more blame on the shoulders. Rather than speak my mind or comment on certain issues I just click next and keep my mouth shut. Maybe that's the solution. Take away the ability to ignore. Rather than ignore, learn. Because the path to ignorance starts with ignoring. And the path to enlightenment start with lighten'in up. 

I agree.  Everyone needs to look at both sides.  I see many faults with Trump, but it is my opinion that he will be a great President... if people will give him a chance.  If he turns out not to be, we can always impeach him, right?  

People need to stop with all the hate already!  (Unless it's directed at the extreme Islamist.)   :smallwink:  

You could be right about Obama (and probably are), the "tide was turning" so to speak, and Trump capitalized on that. What I mean by me saying he could have was more along the lines of him knowing how to do exactly what Trump did (connect with people better than Clinton). 

And I too hope for a great president some day, I just don't think Trump will be the man that can do it. More so because of the polarization now (just as with Obama), nobody will WANT him to succeed (at least those on the opposite side of the aisle). Same thing the right said about Obama: It was their stated and public goal to make him a 1 term president. To hell with us peons that put them there to compromise, debate, and actually get something done. 

As for the left, well, this is more directed at congress in general: When Obama got in office he had an enormous amount of political capital to play with. And tackling healthcare was a noble act....Except they didn't tackle it. They let a few think-tanks and lobbying firms write a bill (a damn book actually), slap it on the table, point and laugh at the other side for not having the votes to stop it, PASS IT, PROMOTE IT, THHHHHEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNN Actually F'n Read it. Biggest waste of political capital and the biggest waste of a presidency that I can remember (on par with invading Iraq). 

So what we as Americans need to do is let the president be the damn president. There are checks and balances in place to make sure they tread lightly (yet firmly when needed). But no more sabotage bullshit when it's not "your guy" or "your party". I saw that for the last 8 years of Obama and would very much hope the left will not return the favor. It serves no purpose and THAT is why Trump was elected. To shake it up....I just hope to Thor he doesn't start a damn war because of some f'n twitter comment....I don't have my hopes up...
