That would be unfortunate for the sanity of the forum, there should be an adult in charge of the room, and you have done as well as anyone could under the surreal circumstances.

Will be truly sorry to see you step down, but can't blame you a bit.

You're welcome.
You're the one who said your 11 year old kid is probably more credible than the Associated Press. I called you on it and you dissemble just like your gal Kellyanne trying to polish the turds coming out of Trump's mouth. Your Trumpenfuhrer relied upon Pence's reading of a Post article to fire Flynn and he conspicuously left the Post off his list of accused purveyors of "fake news."

Maybe you should check your orders from headquarters about which news outlet to challenge when it writes something that reflects poorly on Trump. Better yet, you should probably read it, understand it and stop applying the critical thinking skills of an 11 year old to defend Trump. Every time you've done so, you've stepped on your dork.

Back when I was in basic training our "Dorm Chief" as it was called had to be replaced. I forget the reason. But anyway the head TI replaced him with the most arrogant obnoxious recruit in our flight. I suppose there was some method to his madness, but I didn't understand it at the time. And quite frankly, here it is 47 years later and I still don't understand it.

However in keeping with whatever the fuck our TI was thinking, I hereby, for your consideration, nominate Finnbow as replacement.

You're delusional, but maybe you're happier that way. I'll stand by what I posted, and laugh at your childishness and hysteria.

A little bit of surgical removal would probably help the forum. I think continuous personal attacks is a good reason for banning someone. We all know who is constantly personally attacking others. The removal of 13 did wonders.

When Pete was here I didn't agree with anything he believed, but he was a decent person and never insulted people. He would get mad about a policy not a person. The two current admins are the same way. I think the biggest difference between then (2011) is that now certain people are just attacking to attack.

I have been nasty too but I sort of realize when I do it. Sometimes I think TJ doesn't really believe in Trump but is just using his so called support of him as a beard to level attacks against others he feels inferior to on the forum.

There was gap between 13 and the current 13.

Moderation is not a subject for the open forums folks. Take it to the private messaging system.

Regards, Bob
