Re: Is Trump Your President?
We'll stay safe here in Mogadishu by loading our rifles and locking the doors. You would think all those gun laws would make us safer but it is more dangerous around here with them. The good guys with guns have to pay for $100 gun permits and the bad guys don't get permits. Our state is second only to Chicago in gun crimes which is another gun law center.

It is a play on memes. The fishing one is obvious but it can also mean "In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the Internet to distract and sow discord by posting inflammatory and digressive,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses[2] and normalizing tangential discussion,[3] whether for the troll's amusement or a specific gain."
"Metaphorically speaking, to open a can of worms is to examine or attempt to solve some problem, only to inadvertently complicate it and create even more trouble"

More generally bringing divisive politics into a non political subject area is where web forums go to die. Thinks of it as a self inflicted wound.

An example.

Re: Is Trump Your President?
Walter, I can tell that you are into that. But we don't think on the same plane. So unless you can just say things, the way my editors expect me to say things, I have no clue where or how you feel about things. Please keep it simple. This left field sheet is way out of reach of our readers. You would have made a lousy teacher because you don't know how to dumb down things.

Re: Is Trump Your President?
Ain't that the truth. What interests me is that Pelosi fears impeaching Trump that it might backfire on them. Interesting ?

Re: Is Trump Your President?
I am not wild about Trump being reelected but the liberals don't have a suitable candidate and, I believe, that the same thing is going to happen as last time -- no better choice will be offered from the 20 candidates, mostly feminatzes, with dilushional expectations. You can't build a campaign on simply attacking Trump.

Re: Is Trump Your President?
Now we have these four women, what they call the "squad" whose only contribution is to bitch about Trumps racist leanings while jumping on the "go back to where you came from" bandwagon. Okay, so Trump says some offensive things. Is that a political platform? Like the Hillary debacle, the Dems will get nowhere until they offer some solutions to America's problems. Loss of the white house has made the liberals sick. They, like the press, have become obsessed with the demise of Trump. It has become more important than the true missions of the nation.

Michael, that is an awesome cartoon. So true. I can't stand that "Squad". Femin-nazez who are pissed that their girl, Hillary, lost the election. Good job, Michael, that is what I pay you for.

I have such contempt for the "Squad" that I don't like girls any more. Am I supposed to turn queer if I don't like girls?
