Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize this thread was titled "Let's discuss Trump's policies." Was there one you'd actually like to discuss, or were you just looking to score a cheap point?
And explain to me how exactly one can have a policy discussion with people that refuse to acknowledge basic facts like that Obama improved the economy and isn't a Muslim.
Trump spent 15 months insulting the shit out of everyone and everything, and conservatives loved him for it and praised him for "telling it like it is" and "not bowing to political correctness." He and his followers frequently insulted Hillary and her supporters while not being afraid to throw in some misogynistic language, and conservatives were energized by it. Liberals insult Trump and his followers and somehow we're being childish and petty. I'll just add that to the laundry list of hypocrisies.
