Someone said it for thinking calling a black person a n*gger too :hehe:
It's baffling that some intelligent posters devalue points that they are making by using silly terminology about those with a different view.

When Trump was elected he didn't get a mandate to do whatever he wants unchecked. He's not a king. You don't just vote every 4 years and then forget about it. Those elected to office there to serve and must be held accountable. This is why Trump didn't get the senate votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act. The people let their representatives know.

So, the last US election was a referendum on Jerusalem? It cracks me up how politicians of all parties claim a victory means that everything they ran on, or was in their manifesto, has been given a mandate - of course, in this instance, "victory" means the other person got more votes than Trump.

You could see it like that, or you could view it as somebody in political office who follows through and does what they say.

Because access to sites and occupation are two very different beasts.
