        if it was just 1J I could deal with it. But the thought that not a single repub, right winger, what ever, would tell him he is full of shit. That they just go in there to support him, to try and find any little thing. Makes me think it is not salvageable.

          And there are certainly some lefties/Dems who would do the same thing. I guess maybe everyone who is conservative is just tired of being on the defensive. I don't know, its just such an us vs. them. Hopefully whoever decides to hang in there has some useful discussions.

            This is, IMO, 100% because of Trump. Has there ever been a president who has continued to troll the opposition candidate like Trump has? The losing candidates usually just slowly disappear, but Trump is such a sore winner, he's rubbed it in the noses of Hillary and the half of the country who supported her for 2 1/2 years now. So his base does the same. They can't stop themselves. Now if you criticize anything, you're anti-American and asked to leave the country if you don't like it. What a crock of shit. His reign of error can't end soon enough.

              If you worked for a big 4 accounting firm and your boss asked you to travel to another city for work, would you:

              A) Go on the company travel site and pick out a decent hotel that was conveniently located near work (just like any sane person would do)
              B) Stay in a youth hostel in an effort to not spend money on something you feel is overpriced, even if it's some evil entity's money and not yours (like an insane person)

                If you choose B, do you get to use the savings on liquor and cheap hookers?

                    I've had a boss that would have appreciated B. That boss was, not surprisingly, horrible with people.

                              Totally agree. Back when I worked for large companies and traveled a lot, and when I had the choice, I always went with the same hotel (Hyatt) to maximize my travel points. As such, I had enough points to cover the hotels for my entire honeymoon. #thanksobama
