    Good for the economy (so far) bad with air time is how I sum up Trump.

Facebook has gotten so bad, I barely log in to that anymore. I've blocked so many people/things on there just because I don't want to constantly have every persons views on every political issue spewed constantly in my face. Of course I could choose to just see a post like this and move on, but maybe this just isn't the platform for it?
    Again, I'm not trying to be critical, but I feel like there have been so many political posts on here lately. All I want to do is read up on is fantasy hockey etc.
    Maybe I'm in the minority on that thought
    The option is always to just not come in the thread?

    Has he? He hasn't done anything for the economy. He's just riding a wave that was there before his presidency started.

    Not true.

    Trump can take credit for being in office while the economy surges............if you argue he hasn't done anything that's debatable and just pretty much playing devils advocate...or just hate Trump.

    I'm surprised that people are worried about this thread...

    It deals with two simple premises that are objectively true:
    1) Nazis (and all derivations thereof) are bad,
    2) Trump is an idiot for failing state that from the outset.

    Because for the upteenth time in recent memory, this is one of the first things that pops up in a fantasy hockey forum. Just like people are told to stay on topic in here, I don't see how this topic has anything to do with fantasy hockey/sports etc.
    I come here to get away from politics and bickering etc to look at and get others perspectives on hockey/fantasy hockey etc. I understand it's controversial, but to me, that's not the purpose of this site.

    What movies/shows to watch, what beer you drink, what car you drive, how much you weigh, etc. is also not the purpose of this site, yet, those threads get posted in weekly.

    If you simply can't ignore these threads you can go in your settings and remove the 'Lounge' section from showing up.

    This Thread category is "The Lounge; What's going on? What's on your mind?". It is very specifically a place to put topics that are unrelated to hockey, and it is filled with threads discussing music, movies, TV, Booze, Celebrity Deaths, Hobbies, Latest in Tech, etc... Trump's statement is exactly "What's going on" and "What's on my mind" and is precisely what this category is for. Not sure what else you want here?

    Hi roenick,

    The lounge never has fantasy hockey content so if you'd like you can exclude it from your view (click Settings, then about halfway down on the left I think the button is general settings.... at the bottom of that page is the exclusion list)

    Yeah, I fear it is just a matter of time before the mistakes that 45 is constantly making ultimately tanks the US economy. He caught a nice wave from Obama but he can only ride that sucker for so long before it crashes into the shoreline.

    I just hope it is not a catastrophic collapse.
