    It's harder to fathom the idiots who elected him.

    We always recognize in others the characteristics we ourselves possess---Which means the people who elected him though that being a f****** moron and having the understanding of a fifth or sixth grader would somehow be assets in a president.

    We're in the hurricane's eye where everything is blue sky---and his supporters think the worst has passed.

    Not liking Trump is more than understandable and reasonable. Calling him an evil dictator is a stretch.

    Perhaps intelligence is directly correlated with arm length---the greater the intelligence the longer the arm---At any rate, it is no stretch for me.

    If he were head of any country besides the USA, he would be moving in that direction.

    I would disagree. He may be an obnoxious, loud-mouthed bully, but he isn’t a dictator or tyrant. We can agree to disagree.

    That would be nice if the future or our democracy were not at stake---"Agreeing to disagree" is just another way of buying one's head in the sand.---

    Sorry, but reality trumps opinion every time.

    Yea, choosing not to argue is burying my head in the sand. Look up who real tyrants and dictators are. Btw, we are a representative constitutional republic, not a democracy. This is it the last reply I’ll give. I’m choosing not to argue.

    Maybe he is an evil dictator because of all the economic success he is generating. EVERYBODY WILL HAVE TO WORK AND BECOME SUCCESSFUL AND WEALTHY! Everybody will get a new car and a new house in the suburbs!  OH MY!  America will choke on it's massive economy! OH MY! Lions and tigers and BULLS, OH MY!

    Almost all economists are categorically stating that the current economic climate is despite Trump, not because of him - but his pointless trade war with China is likely to act as a brake.

    I can fathom it only a smidge more than the rationale of those who still support him.

    I don’t agree that he’s a dictator beyond his own wishful imaginings.

    Dictaters don't eat at McDonald's but Donald Trump does because it's easier to understand the menu and order simple items.

    Well for someone who is supposed to be "stupid" he has done remarkably well for himself.  And under someone who is supposed to be such an "evil dictator" then why do we enjoy much more freedom?

    I’m sure we can name any number of truly smart people who’d tell hurricane victims who just lost everything to “Have a good time!”, right?

    ...Or a president who thinks the US Attorney General serves to protect HIM.

    ...Or the same President who has alienated virtually every international ally the US has.

    ...Or even perhaps the same fella whose lawyer (Mr Dowd) abandoned him because he can’t be trusted to not incriminate himself. 

    No, stupid is a pretty apt description. Why can’t some discern the difference, I wonder.

    Nope, I truly cannot fathom what on earth seems to have possessed people to even encourage such a total prawn in the running for president let alone to have voted for something with seemingly less intelligence than a 4th grader.. It's beyond me.. seems like people took leave of their senses.. I can only hope it's temporary..
    I do think he is evil.. not in the murdering sense but it's entirely conceivable that he has paid or ordered people to do illegal things and the disgrace and derision he has brought on America just by being head of America and he seems wholly without morals. 
    I am afraid he really is stupid and that the nation has someone even more stupid than Bush in power really brings discredit.

    I find it very hard to take seriously the rantings of someone who claims a majority of the country as stupid simply because they didn't get their way in the last election. It also seems quite hypocritical to throw out words such as "dictator", "Tyrannical",  and how was it put above, oh yeah, "The future of our democracy is at stake" all the while participating in, and encouraging what amounts to a political coup. 
    It is merely an attempt to shut down discussion by discrediting the opposition with spurious accusations of "sheer stupidity" or "Racism".."sexism" and a host of other terms. They revel in their own perceived intelligence when their protestations are nothing more than banging one's spoon on their highchair
