You miss my point entirely. Regardless of what he is or is not, regardless of what people think of him, we're sick of being subjected to any mention of it here on AM. (Come ON, he even lost out on the Trump v tilde poll!)
The people on here that don't get that this PIG is ruining their lives, and cannot discern Trump from some silly grammatical symbol are living with their heads in the sand.
So everyone has to think the exact same way that you do about things in order to be deemed intelligent, is that the case, Sharonna? How about a person who is as anti-Trump as you are yet chooses to be less verbal about it here on this forum? Do you also assign them the 'living with their heads in the sand' epitaph? I guess that the only opinion you find valid is your own, and other people are entitled to their opinions, but only if theirs agree with yours.
And how do you get all the way to "throw me off"? I haven't advocated you being banished, not even being censored by others. I think you belong here just as much as I belong here, regardless of what you and I have posted to date. If you were to leave for good and miss this place, I would miss you being here. I don't want you to go, I won't fight for your dismissal, nor will I beg you to stay. Being told you can't or shouldn't post something isn't what I seek, self-censorship on a voluntary basis is another thing entirely.
No don't I stopped reading. If you want to do this, find another. I'm not up for it. I'm not remotely interested in making anyone think anything. I am not going to defend myself. If you don't want to talk to me about Trump, that is fine. I don't get where you are coming from on that end at all anyway. Let's try something else.
Sharonna, what makes you think we need to log into Answermug to find out about this? I can watch almost every news channel or late night talk show to get more than I ever need. We muggers aren't living in a cave. I can only take so much of watching Trump-haters getting their undies in a bunch over his latest tweet, his self-aggrandizement, or his prolific lies.
I'm sorry. I am not going to stop talking about Trump. Not even for you, Jane. I talk about plenty of things on here, not just him. He is wrecking our lives and my life and I can do nothing but scream bloody murder about it. That is all that is left for me to do, since my rights were stripped and my country is in the toilet.
I care. If you don't, turn the channel and ignore me.
It is not TILDEs. If you think that is funny ad nauseum, how am I supposed to take your concerns all that seriously?

Sharonna, who said that you should stop talking about Trump? A woman of your above-average intelligence can't possibly be missing the point that far off the mark unless it's intentional. Jane S certainly didn't say anything about you stopping or about stopping you, nor did she ask you to stop for her sake or anyone else's sake. She merely spoke her opinion of the de-Trumpism.
You speak of being taken seriously, yet you may be taking yourself far too seriously if you think that AM is the forum from which you'll launch effective opposition to Trump. Sure, you'll vent, you'll rant and rave, you'll call him names and post doctored photos and memes and political cartoons, but how does that differ from any other tripe that's plastered over bathroom walls anywhere else? It has the seriousness of a third-grader who is angry with other students or with teachers or with parents.
At least I know that tildes are silly from beginning, middle and end; I don't assume that I'm heroically introducing some vast movement that will hoist me on the shoulders of Norma Rae, Martin Luther King, Jr, John F. Kennedy, Lech Walesca and Mother Theresa. I don't expect everyone in the world to follow tildes or be accused of head in the sand. Sniveling about Trumple on AnswerMug as if you're a recalcitrant toddler doesn't do much more than make you feel good. It's like what happens when you scratch an itchy mosquito bite, but as soon as you stop scratching, it starts itching again, so you have to keep scratching.
