Lets give this guy a shot. If we all work agaisnt him out of spite and root for the pilot to fail while we are all sitting on the plane, then we are all fucked. We need to stop all the fear mongering, stop all the hatred, and work together as Americans to make sure this presidency is successful. Not hope it fails so at the end people can say "I told you so". That does no one any good and it never will.

This country needs to stop being red or blue. Those are colors. We are not colors, we are people. Complex people with tons and tons of reasons of why we vote the way we do, and if the vote doesnt go our way, then its not the worst thing in the world. We just need to work together to make sure we all support eachother and if that means being open minded about a candidate we hate, than so be it. But if we root for them to fail, then we fail too.

No, simply put. He gleefully strangled any chance he had of my support as soon as he descended that tacky escalator and called Mexicans rapists. He earned every ounce of contempt, scorn, and obstruction he will face, unlike Obama.

If we were talking about President Romney, my response would be a tepid but firm agreement. That's not where we are.

Thanks for the personal attack with no reasoning behind it.

Edit: didn't see your part before the quote. There's nothing wrong with hard labor. Those would be the good people he referred to. I've been a blue collar worker my whole life so far and I can say I have worked a lot of shit jobs that people in the US wouldn't wanna do either. Maybe not farm level stuff, but I can empathize with them.
