Do you ever hear Trumpers say

"Now you know how WE felt when Obama was president!"

Um .... no .... I guess I don't.

They say that Obama gave too many "handouts" to the "lazy" and poor. That he "apologized" to other countries and made us look "weak". That he favored immigrants over American citizens. That they felt ashamed that Obama was so weak and spineless.

If faced with a choice, I'll take the president who has compassion for the vulnerable and owns up to America's mistakes, over a shameful blowhard whose obsession with not appearing "weak" only makes us cruel and hateful.

And F you Nikki Haley, poverty in America is a HUGE problem and only gets worse under your boss' willfully ignorant policies.

OK that's all I have to say......

and repeatedly asking them; "to reach out to those that don't support them"?

Nah, me neither

Just delete and repost in GD. Folks make that mistake all the time.

But for the record, good post. Agree 100%.
