If they were bitching about the country the way these women are I have no doubt he would.

They’re not “ bitching “ about our country.
Trump is so crude and unprofessional. He behaves like a drunk old uncle at a family barbecue- no boundaries, no restraints, no brakes, just a bunch of irrational griping.

And since when is disagreement with an administration and expressing one’s discontent with certain issues a reason to strip someone from their citizenship?
In fact, is now disagreeing with Trump equal to “bitching about America”? So why didn’t all those who were against Obama’s policy leave the country then? We’re they “hating America” because they disagreed with Obama?

Please show me where I said anyone deserved to be stripped of citizenship. I’ll wait.

People were told they should leave if they didn’t like Obama’s policies ALL.THE.TIME.

A lot of people said if Bush was elected they’d leave. If Trump was elected they’d leave. Most, if not all, are still here.

If I go somewhere and I don’t like it then I don’t stick around complaining and saying how bad and unfair things are, I remove myself if possible.

Bottom line is, she asked if anyone thought President Trump would say the same thing to a white person. I answered that I thought he would.

Maybe not you. I wasn’t talking about you. But your reply implied that Trump thinks that’s an acceptable reason. And you think such a jerk is a good leader?

Can’t stay on topic, can you?

I thought the topic was if he would say the same thing to a white person, not what you personally think about President Trump.

Am I wrong?

I answered that yes, I think he would.

Better than Obama was and a hell of a lot better than Hillary would have been.

So seriously, those of you saying “well, if I didn’t like it I would leave” have no idea what that implies. Such simplistic minds, these Trump supporters. Funny how you’re not very supportive of people who do just that, lol. How would you feel if you hated the way things were done in America, tried to leave only to have your ass shipped back because your chosen country thinks you’re disgusting?
