What about it? I have soft support for him. The economy is looking good. I enjoy how he's aggressively attacking the SJW-left and the MSM (I still rely on them, but I think they need their biases confronted), I like the pressure he is putting on the NK issue. I like how we're less confrontational with Russia. I agree with his position on DACA (tie protection in with border security), and tearing up TPP. Is Trump perfect? No. I disagree with him on several issues- Obamacare reform and getting rid of the Iran deal. I wish he was focused more on tax reform and infrastructure. I think the travel ban was sloppy. He was right to call out the violence on both sides when it comes to our protests (apparently both sides means 'only one side' to lefties ), his response to Puerto Rico has been mixed. Most importantly, the left, outside of say Bernie Sanders, is completely unhinged, even more so than some of Trump's clownish supporters. Imagining things that aren't real, doubling down on SJW stuff, and just seemingly having no direction. We're talking serious levels of mass delusion and hysteria. Salem Witch Trial level stuff. By the way they talk, you'd think America was on the verge of some sort of Hitler-Stalin takeover and mass death, but it isn't.
Larry Flynt, the creator of Hustler Magazine and producer of a galaxy of XXX-rated porn films, has announced a reward of $10 million for "information leading to the impeachment and removal from office of Donald J. Trump.” In a full-page ad in Sunday's Washington Post, Flynt provided details on the kind of information he thinks could serve this purpose, as well as his reasons for wanting the business reality star-turned-head of state removed from office.
Along with Facebook, YouTube, Google, and Twitter, it seems that Nintendo's most popular augmented reality game was also used to exert foreign influence over American voters last year.CNN reported yesterday that the mobile game Pokémon Go was involved in an online attempt to sway users' politics, and potentially to incite racial conflict. According to CNN, a Tumblr page linked to Russia's far-reaching Internet Research Agency was found to have promoted a contest for Pokémon Go players in July of 2016, and which seemingly sought to mimic aspects of the Black Lives Matter movement in order to engage users sympathetic to that cause.

What's important to you is not that he accomplishes anything as president that moves the country forward but that he pokes the left in the eye with a sharp stick. No wonder you spent most of your answer attacking the left rather than addressing issues of substance. Birds of a feather and all that.

“I’ve been amazed and disappointed by so much of what this President had said, and his approach to running this country, which seems to be one of just a never-ending divisiveness. But his comments today about those who have lost loved ones in times of war and his lies that previous presidents Obama and Bush never contacted their families, is so beyond the pale, I almost don’t have the words.” “This man in the Oval Office is a soulless coward who thinks that he can only become large by belittling others. This has of course been a common practice of his, but to do it in this manner – and to lie about how previous presidents responded to the deaths of soldiers – is as low as it gets. We have a pathological liar in the White House: unfit intellectually, emotionally, and psychologically to hold this office and the whole world knows it, especially those around him every day. The people who work with this President should be ashamed because they know it better than anyone just how unfit he is, and yet they choose to do nothing about it. This is their shame most of all.”

Not according to Chris Matthews, that oh so Republican voice of MSNBC."She didn't come out against TPP until right at the very end, and nobody really believed her."http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mHEwtoe78sQ
last checked in on Donald Trump's approval numbers when they were rising modestly. They've now been retreating, at least by FiveThirtyEight's estimate, for the last three weeks, and he's now back down to 37.7 percent approval. Some of this movement could just be random fluctuation, and the exact estimates are different from various poll averagers; RealClearPolitics, for example, has him slightly higher. But the basic story is about the same. Trump is (again per FiveThirtyEight) back in last place in approval ratings at this number of days after being sworn in of any president in the polling era.And his "net" approval (subtracting disapproval) has been the worst among those 13 presidents every day of his presidency, and it's never been particularly close. Currently he's within a single percentage point of same-day Gerald Ford in approval, but at -18.3, his net approval is 9 percentage points worse than Ford's, and every other president was in positive territory at this point.
A Florida congresswoman described President Donald Trump’s phone call to the widow of a soldier killed during an ambush in Niger as “insensitive” after the president reportedly said the man “must’ve known what he signed up for.”Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) was in the car with Myeshia Johnson, the pregnant widow of Army Sgt. La David Johnson, when Trump called her Tuesday and spoke for about five minutes, according to South Florida’s NBC affiliate.“Sarcastically he said: ‘But you know he must have known what he signed up for,’” Wilson recounted to NBC6. “How could you say that to a grieving widow? I couldn’t believe... and he said it more than once. I said this man has no feelings for anyone. This is a young woman with child who is grieved to her soul.”
He then used the opportunity to falsely assert that his predecessors “didn’t make calls” themselves.Former President Barack Obama frequently called the families of soldiers killed in action and visited those wounded during his administration. President George W. Bush visited troops at the Walter Reed medical center 16 times before he left office. Trump returned to the subject Tuesday, using the death of Chief of Staff John Kelly’s son in 2010 to illustrate Obama’s record on calling bereaved families, saying his predecessor did not call in that instance. Obama invited Kelly and his wife, Karen, to a breakfast in 2011 for Gold Star families who have lost children in combat. They were seated at a table with first lady Michelle Obama.
n normal, non-Trumpian times, it might come as a surprise to learn that the president of the United States had offered to personally send a grieving military father $25,000 to make up for the loss of his dead son. It would be even more shocking to learn that after making that strange, unusual promise, he never actually followed through. Obviously, though, these past 10 months have not been normal times. The Washington Post reports that Donald Trump, who has spent the last week falsely claiming that he‘s “called every family of somebody that’s died” since he became president, did both of those things earlier this year.According to Chris Baldridge, the father of Army corporal Dillon Baldridge, who was killed by an Afghan police officer on June 10, the president told him, “I’m going to write you a check out of my personal account for $25,000.” Baldridge, a construction worker, had reportedly “expressed frustration” with the fact that his ex-wife would be receiving the Pentagon’s $100,000 “death gratuity,” when he was struggling to get by, and Trump, who knows a thing or two about ex-wives, took the opportunity to brag about his generosity. “No other president has ever done something like this [but] I’m going to do it,” he said.The money has yet to materialize. So far, Baldridge says, he’s received nothing else besides a condolence letter. “I opened it up and read it,” he said, “and I was hoping to see a check in there, to be honest. I know it was kind of far-fetched thinking. But I was like, ‘Damn, no check.’ Just a letter saying ‘I'm sorry.’”
Colton Fears, 28, Tyler Tenbrink, 28, and Wiliam Fears, 30, were arrested on charged of attempted murder in Gainesville.

“It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”― Joseph Heller, Catch 22
