Just curious. Many criticized Obama


Posted: Aug 24, 2017

limit.  Now Trump wants to do it.  So does he get a pass or do you disagree with him too?

;

What was there to dislike? It was a simple - question. I guess I'll

answer. He's a hypocrite plain and simple.

I'll throw another question in. He called the business that withdrew from his panel "embarrassed" because they offshore jobs while he offshores. Weren't those comments also hypocritical?

Seems odd that no supporters will answer those questions. Who knew answering questions about his hypocritical actions and words could be so difficult?

Does it need to be black and white? - Not a supporter sm

I'm not a supporter.

But I do note that you didn't cite a link. You didn't say how much Trump is increasing the debt.

If Trump adds $1 to the debt is he still a hypocrite in your eyes? I can understand people calling him a hypocrite if he adds more debt than Obama did.

What if he adds the same amount of debt or less than Obama? In that case, I would say Trump's detractors (and Obama supporters) are the hypocrites. Why is it okay for Obama to add a lot of debt, but it's not okay for Trump to add a little?

By the same token, there could be Trump supporters who feel that adding some debt is necessary. (It's not like Trump can snap his fingers and magically get everyone off entitlements.) They probably felt that way about Obama too. Maybe they only complained when Obama increased the debt more than all past presidents combined.

Stealing baby formula is one thing. Setting up a chop shop for your stolen car business is on a whole other level.

Is it hypocritical to look the other way when someone is shoplifting baby formula, but you call the cops when your neighbor is running a stolen car ring? If you see things as black and white it is hypocritical. Otherwise, not so much.

I don't think you get my point. - If he raises the debt

limit, he raises the debt limit. Leaders in our country do that. What I criticize and call hypocritical is that Obama was criticized for raising the debt limit by both people against him and Trump himself. I asked if people are for or against this proposed debt limit increase. If you criticized Obama and don't criticize Trump, then you are a hypocrite and that includes Trump.

In my OP, there was a link that he wants an increase in the debt limit. You said I didn't post a link. In my post that you responded to, I posted links about his comments about the businesses on this board and nobody responded to them. He is a hypocrite for criticizing people who offshore when he does it.

Things are not black and white, but when somebody is going to criticize one and not the other for doing the same thing, that is hypocritical.

There are people on here who criticize Obama for every single thing he has done and don't consider the state of our country when he took office and that has a lot to do with why he raised the debt limit so much.

I despise Trump but have come on here and defended him on a few occasions that I felt he needed defending.
You also seem to forget that he turned the businesses over - Truthhurts

to the boys. They are no longer his businesses and he cannot say boo about them.

But I do think ivanka and Kushner should NOT be in the White House, either, at least not Kushner because of the black cloud over his head.
And you believe he has nothing to do with his - businesses?
[ In Reply To ..]
I don't know where you get "They are no longer his businesses." They most certainly are.

I do agree on Ivanka and Kushner though. There is, however, no bigger cloud over Kushner's head than there is over Trump's head.

that implies any criticism of DT will be disliked by his followers.

It was a loaded question and a Trump bash - We caught it and disliked it.

Why was it a loaded question? If you feel - it was bad for Obama

[ In Reply To ..]
to do it and okay for Trump, then answer the question and explain the reasoning. It wasn't a Trump bash at all, just a simple question. I just don't understand how it can be bad or good for one to do it and not bad or good if the other does it.

I agree. - DoNotFeedTheTrolls

First clue is always when a post asks a question. They want an answer and then want to argue.
So asking a question is "trolling" to you? - If I were on a debating

team in school, I certainly wouldn't want someone who feels like that on my team.

I'll answer your questions and have before - Truthhurts

Baiting the posters here only causes more friction between the left and right but I guess that's what you want?

I didn't hear him say they were embarrassed because they offshore their products. I heard some dropped out because they didn't like Trump's answers to Charlottesville and on the statues.

He speaks his mind. He's not a politician. Does everyone want political hacks and total corruption in the Oval Office? I don't.

Let's see what he does. Oh, sorry. That's too hard for the left to understand. They seem to like corruption and political hacks in the Oval Office.

BTW, did you know Sen. Menendez's (D) trial is up and coming in September when Congress goes back to work? This should be interesting. If he's found guilty, that will leave the Dems with only 49 in the Senate.

Maybe you didn't see his tweets, but that is - exactly what he said.

[ In Reply To ..]
I posted a link about it. If you didn't see it too bad. Before you accuse someone of baiting, maybe you should read his tweets. He's a hypocrite plain and simple.

Since you didn't here him say it, here it - is

The president has fired back at those leaving his manufacturing council, calling them “grandstanders.” Before diving back into the Charlottesville controversy in his remarks Tuesday, Trump said people were quitting the manufacturing board “because they're not taking their job seriously as it pertains to this country.”

“They're having a lot of their product made outside [the U.S.],” he said. “Now, I have to tell you, some of the folks that will leave, they're leaving out of embarrassment because they make their products outside.”

I didn't hear that Trump wanted to do it. When did he say that? - Truthhurts

[ In Reply To ..]
I know CONGRESS wants to up the debt limit again so we don't get another downgrade in out credit rating.

What the heck......Congress would raise the debt limit anyway with or without Trump. They don't seem to care about the people anymore, just spend, spend, spend.

After my divorce in 1994 I started buying my own jewelry second hand primarily at pawn shops, on ebay, and from Craigslist since the retail markuup is 100% to 200% (and don't get me started about my niece-in-law). In any case, I see a lot of diamond rings on Craigslist that people say they have paid a warranty on, keep getting dipped, and have checked regularly every 6 months. Is this some new con by retail jewelers?  Aren't diamonds pretty much indestructable?  What a ...

her supporters and the crowd sitting on pins and needles all night. It was really sad to see the tears on the faces of most of them.
