Hey props for using the correct 'couldn't care less' phrase.Originally posted by Maximus View Post"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

might be the most honest thing trump has said since becoming president.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss
There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

So I actually listened to the clip and unless I’m mistaken, the transcription is incredibly misleading and really just plain inaccurate.Originally posted by Maximus View Post"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Like frank, i''m curious why you think it's incredibly misleading. Even Trump seems to acknowledge his response is bad ("[this] will get me in trouble..."). i think his response accurately reflects his political world view: that the deep divide can't be fixed and he's fine with that. Throughout his business and political career, Trump has promoted an 'us vs. them" and '"'them' is the enemy". approach and he has no interest in resolving that.Originally posted by Moliere View Post

The tweet makes it sound like his comment of “I couldn’t care less” was in response to the question of how to fix the country. It wasn’t.Originally posted by frank ryan View Post
How is it "incredibly" misleading?
It sure sounds like his talking points"Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

What context are we missing? That's the way Trump thinks.Originally posted by Moliere View Post

Other right wingers are also expressing similar feelings.
MAGA needs enemies to function.

I'll admit to being obtuse, but if his response was not to her clear and direct question, what couldn't he care less about?Originally posted by Moliere View Post

He couldn’t care less if people don’t like his answer on how to fix the country. Just listen to the clip.Originally posted by PaloAltoCougar View Post

Trumps ideas on fixing things are stupid, but it doesn’t mean he doesn’t want less violence."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

That doesn't change his gross divisive tone. His solution is going to be encroaching and the rights of any perceived as leftist.
Lost is this thread is that the person who most needs to cool his rhetoric the most is Trump himself. That will never happen though.

Uh, yes it was. How much of the interview did you actually watch? He said "I couldn't care less" and then went on to explain how the "radicals on the right" are only radical because they hate crime and want illegal immigration to stop. The radicals on the LEFT, however, are radical for every possible bad reason imaginable.Originally posted by Moliere View Post

Ultimately, PAC is right. Trump fuels division in our country, that is how he rose to power the first time, and how he got it back the second time. It's his entire political philosophy (MAGA, because the radical left lunatics are destroying it). So he makes it sound like the right are freedom fighters while the left are basically LOTR hordes of orcs and goblins.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
