I know what he was asking., or more what he was suggesting -- 111Balz 12/28/2017 09:52AM

Admit it. It's a very weird hypothetical. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 12/27/2017 8:28PM

But interesting. I like where he was going with it. ** -- hoothat 12/27/2017 9:12PM

I was legitimately concerned. Sorry I said anything. ** -- hoothat 12/27/2017 10:20PM

I hope no one truly 'despises' Trump.... -- VisorBoy Hokie 12/27/2017 5:35PM

Then you haven't been paying attention. A lot of people despise Trump. -- Faz d. Hoo 12/27/2017 11:05PM

I despise him. He basically supported Nazis. He spent -- HoosWillWin 12/28/2017 11:42AM

I don't despise him. I think he's mentally ill ** -- wahoo138 12/28/2017 09:21AM

I truly despise that man & will rejoice @ his passing -- WaxHoo 12/27/2017 9:29PM

Honestly, ... tough.** -- WaxHoo 12/28/2017 5:23PM

Paging the Sith. The hate is strong with this one.** -- hoothat 12/27/2017 9:44PM

Yes. Fear, anger, hate. Now, death and destruction. All because he lost. ** -- Hokieesith 12/27/2017 10:45PM

Anyone who disagrees with you is a fanboy. -- hoothat 12/27/2017 9:27PM

Touch a nerve, fanboy? ** -- Shenhoo 12/27/2017 9:29PM

Nobody is a bigger Trump fanboy than you son. -- Hokieesith 12/27/2017 10:50PM

Not at all. Thanks for proving my point though. ** -- hoothat 12/27/2017 9:32PM

I was mocking Hillary's statement... -- hoothat 12/27/2017 9:34PM

That makes no sense to me. Of course not ** -- 111Balz 12/27/2017 4:36PM

Hell no. For one, Obama is not the reason Trump is president. -- WahooRQ 12/27/2017 4:17PM

He wasn't the only reason, but he was certainly A reason. -- Faz d. Hoo 12/27/2017 10:46PM

Aw shucks. Give the obstructionist GOP congress some credit. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 12/28/2017 11:26AM

Well, ofcourse not to you. -- hoothat 12/28/2017 12:10PM

I think Trump may be just what the Dems needed, actually. -- southdenverhoo 12/27/2017 4:42PM

Has anyone ever known someone more filled with rage than RQ? -- TomKazanski 12/27/2017 4:39PM

You mistake outrage for rage, but then again you mistake most everything ** -- 111Balz 12/27/2017 5:25PM

Lol. If you happen to be wrong... -- hoothat 12/27/2017 4:15PM

Boy, that's a tad too cocky for my tastes. -- hoolstoptheheels 12/27/2017 3:50PM

I was talking long term. Millennials are going to bury Republicans ** -- wahoo138 12/27/2017 10:24PM

I wouldn't brag about having millenials on your side... ** -- hoothat 12/28/2017 12:39AM

I'm not bragging. I'm just making an observation -- wahoo138 12/28/2017 03:36AM

Only if they realize why Trump got elected -- PalmyraHoo 12/27/2017 3:35PM

You think it was because of progressive policies? More like the grievance -- Seattle .Hoo 12/27/2017 3:56PM

That is part of the equation -- WahooMatt05 12/27/2017 3:44PM

You are the party of big govt and truly believe in it -- TomKazanski 12/27/2017 2:30PM

That's not accurate. Both parties have their taxpayer-funded favorites... -- VisorBoy Hokie 12/27/2017 5:37PM

This is why you will eventually lose out -- Hood 12/27/2017 5:02PM

All those things Hood said look abysmal to most people sum you up nicely -- WahooRQ 12/27/2017 4:05PM
