OK, I must admit there is a 'running someone down behind their back' aspect to some posts about whell here. But he chose to make himself such a prominent provocateur that it's mainly on him, I think.

I guess that is the part that bothers me. "Donny" is a public figure and quite controversial. Whell is just a guy on the net, like the rest of us here. I see no need for things to get so nasty and personal. Blow his ideas out of the water if you will, but personal comments help no one. Just my opinion.

That is what Donny does to people.

He engenders frustration and rage. I hope Whell reappears soon so some of this anger can be satisfied.

"Donny" doesn't post here. 😀

Why are grown, intelligent men allowing POTUS to get so far under their skin that they cannot be civil to others?

Seriously? Donny's supporters are vile, disgusting, racist, unthinking, hateful creatures, beneath contempt. Have you ever watched one of his rallies? Give me a break!

"Beneath contempt"

Then why all the contempt?

Relax, ,nothing you say or do here that will have any effect in D.C. at all.

Count to ten and play some tunes.

Our democracy and the truth are under assault daily, by this administration and its fake news enablers. No, I refuse to be a “good German”.

Did you happen to see the pics I posted of the enraged attendiees at Trump rallies? I respectfully and civilly suggest you seem all bothered by comparatively mild expressions of emotion by anti-Trumpists.

Your scoldings are pretty one sided, John. When Mike (Whell) was tossing all sorts of personal comments at Chicks, you were strangely silent. Sorry.
