>> The job of the political opposition is to oppose.

If that were the case than there’s no point in having a political system, is there?

Regardless, we’re back in the false equivalences territory. The GOP doesn’t have any policies. It’s a block of resentment that’s not even trying anymore to pretend.

The democrats have policies and as you say, they do their job and oppose (based on their policies). They don’t oppose for the sake of opposition like you’re suggesting. They have policies they seem to be able to articulate and stand behind.

Republicans don’t. Not any more at least not since they’ve lost two election cycles to Obama.

Your problems and complaints about the EU are not relevant to the discussion. Opposition to trump is based on his action, or inaction mostly and deliberate policies written by lobbyists and white supremacists. I’d say that’s a reason to be busy opposing him.

Ps you’re. Unless your talking genetics, how does this qualify you as a “European”?

>> If that were the case than there’s no point in having a political system, is there?

Yes there is. It’s like court, you have prosecution and defense.

>> They don’t oppose for the sake of opposition like you’re suggesting.

I didn’t suggest that they “oppose for the sake of opposition”. I said they oppose because that’s their job, to keep the current government “in check”.

>> Your problems and complaints about the EU are not relevant to the discussion.

They’re not complaints, they’re observations. Some of the items, not all, like defense and dollar liquidity are very relevant because of the geopolitical interplay.

>> Unless your talking genetics, how does this qualify you as a “European”?

I didn’t say I was European. I said I was a European citizen. You see, holding a European citizenship makes you a European citizen. I even voted in the last EU parliament elections.
