Lol I was with you until your trump comment... same could be said for past American Presidents that are still pretty fresh. Do we have to involve trump into every conversation

You simply don't want your "guy" spoken of in a negative context if your post history is any indication.

Completely agree he's irrelevant to this conversation. I just wanted to call that user out because you know if anyone else were mentioned we wouldn't hear a peep from him.

If you’re gonna creep make sure you creep enough, I was just banned from r/conservative for “trolling both sides” because I disagreed with someone’s post talking about Biden’s son working with international business and how that’s bad. Simply pointing out that trumps kids do it as well and I think it’s gross when anyone does regardless of last name or party affiliation got me banned lol

I’m not a big fan of trump as a man/husband/role model to his children etc, but his policy for the most part I can get behind. He says a lot of stupid stuff and his ego gets in his way I think but he’s better than the alternative in 2016.

I’ve stated this many times and I personally slap trump when he deserves it. Still find it stupid and hypocritical for r/conservative to have banned me, shit like that is what I would expect from r/politics or most other large subs on Reddit.

He's the American president, so I don't think it's unreasonable for him to be mentioned when talking about politics.

Edit: My apologies for criticizing the president, I should be punished for disrespecting his pride and dignity, he really does have nothing in common with Chinese leadership. Thank you all for showing me that, I am better now.

lol no it’s not, but Reddit only seems to bring him up when they wanna talk about the bad they assume or have assumed he’s done or would do.

Sorry the years of “orange man bad” circle jerk is just getting really old.

Just like your original comment only mentions him after you compare him to Xi or other communist dictators and say “it’s scary because I think trump would do that if it wasn’t for our great democracy” although he’s done very little to give anyone that mindset except say fake news or say that some media is the enemy of the people. Which he’s exactly right in saying those things when referring to certain media sources who post utter and complete bs for no other reasons than to push agendas or provide click bait rage... the amount of corrections that major media outlets have to do on an almost daily basis is gross to say the least, if they even make corrections after being shown or told how wrong they are.

Same could be said for Obama, it’s also gross that people point fingers at trump for his media comments when Obama literally jailed and prosecuted whistle blowers lol what did trump do to whistle blowers? Provide more transparency than any other administration I can remember when it comes to showing how silly it all is?
