I do not think I have ever had an issue with you MG. Even when we disagree. My beef is with a few people here whom I always seem to have a beef with. I won't name them but you are not on that list.

No, you and I have never argued and that's much better than what I get from a few others, here AND in the real world which looks more like this....

That view was not conjured up out of thin air. Is it not possible that the truth lies somewhere in the middle? As a referee I see both sides saying "Yeah, but it's their behavior that is bad." It is rare that such statements are true. I will go so far as to agree that, with the state of American politics right now, emotions are running high and, yes, both sides of the divide need to tone it down. Good grief, it's just politics. I have to keep telling myself that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I can think of a few words. Go to You Tube and watch, Montenegro PM reveals how he felt to be 'shoved' by Trump. The Prime Minister wasn't offended at all. And he praised Donald Trump after that meeting. The Prime Minister also said that it is natural for the president of the United States to be at the front of such a photo.

I prefer to look for the light and leave the dark behind me. It makes the world a nicer place to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen Markovic's response. Markovic is a true statesman and responded as such. In my opinion his response just further highlights the boorish nature of what Trump did.
