You'll find that my statement was that "they are some of the loudest people." Didn't say they all are. Didn't say they are the only loud ones. Just said that they are some of the loudest people. It's a small percentage in any group that are loud and it is annoying, but my point still stands.


And? What the average American voter wants and what is good for the country are not always, or even usually, consistent with each other. People don't want higher taxes, but during times of economic growth that is exactly what should be done. Damaging out international relationships has ripple effects throughout our society in a number of ways. The whole reason our system is a representative democracy and not a direct one is because the average person doesn't have the knowledge or understanding to make the decisions that need to be made.

In the instance you used "they", it's a plural term. If you meant some one other than Trump Supporters (which was what was being discussed), then be more specific next time. Several people on here love to play the semantics game, so stick to saying exactly what you mean and it will help with the confusion.

Never said the tax paying people of the US understand why we send aid to foreign countries, what i said was they care more about Jobs and putting food on the table. That's all they are primarily worried about or do you want to disagree with that?
