      This thread is not really about Trump, other than the fact that people are so colored by their opinion, that they will ignore treason and sedition, not really caring what happens to the country.

      I've been beating a drum from the beginning of this subversion of the U.S. system.

      Several of y'all do not care about this country, as long as you can stroke the Trump hate.

      Shame on you.

        That is so much bullshit.

        One can care about one's country and have disdain for the "leaders". In fact, a more American attitude, I cannot imagine. To bow down and worship them is the most un-American attitude I can imagine.

          Has nothing to do with who is in the Oval Office, or do you not understand the main issue?

            Of course I understand the main issue. You just have different opinion about it than I do. It's really as simple as that.

                That's what you see. I do not see that.

                The revolutionary war was all about treason and sedition.

                    You've been beating a drum, alright.

                    Which brings me to ask you just what your goal is in participating here. It's been decades, man. Do you really think you're going to win a political argument here? We're all going to be here tomorrow. What's the goal, for us to all agree with you? To push out everyone who doesn't? What is a post like that supposed to accomplish?

                    That of course applies to me just as much as it does anyone else. I should think at this point that winning the politics game should be a ridiculous notion to everyone who's still here after so long a time.

                    Please love yourself.

                      It's simply the Truth. It goes beyond political affiliation. I find it head-shaking sad that some do not see the importance of the actions.

                      But that's ok, if that's how the game is to be played. As a wise person once told me, all you have to do, is tell me the rules and I'll play to win. These rules let agents of the government subvert and influence the electoral process.

                      What's the next step? A coup d'etat? A sanctioned assasination? You're already a third of the way down the slope, why not slide to the bottom?

                      Lastly, if the group dislikes my views that much, please let me know. I have other places to go.

                        You may think the abuse of a FISA court is treasonous (reasonable position).

                        Other may think mass surveillance is just as abusive in the first place (reasonable position).

                        The treason turtles go allll the way down.

                                  @Aqua-Letifer Shame is fair.

                                  Keep at it and you and everyone else here is going to be talking with only themselves after awhile.

                                  Please love yourself.

                                      My favorite is when Kathy and WTG come around to accuse everybody here of being stupid and evil, and then pity us for lacking their company.

                                      Education is extremely important.

                                        More of a declaration than an accusation.

                                          No, not at all. I'm saying we should all cool down.

                                          Please love yourself.
