Thanks for your post, Gray.Bazz, you are a friend and a respected poster, but most on here are not going to respect or put any stock in what a serial liar has to say.
I don't know if there is such a thing as a politician who doesn't lie.
Thus, if you use that as a basis on who to listen to and who not to, you may as well give up....lol.....
That said.....I post here only for entertainment purposes and perhaps some exchange of information and ideas.
It really doesn't matter to me that anyone buys into anything I post. In fact - I respect those who care enough to post - regardless of their views - because by doing so - they demonstrate that they are trying to stay engaged.
An analogy could be made by saying everyone should vote, regardless of who you vote for. Same here. The more posts the better. As long as they adhere to forum rules and policy.
It's those who do not post we should be concerned with - maybe.
Lastly - I put people in 3 groups:
1. Anti-Trump - will not listen to anything he says
2. Pro-Trump - listens to everything he says - (and agrees with all or most probably)
3. Those in between
