Problem is HE HAS LIED to all of us....he has single handldly destroyed congress and how it is supposed to work....he has taken such a wonderful opportunity to bring the country closer together racially and has made the divide now so wide...and he did that with his actions, not innuendos....he has strapped this country with one of the biggest single financial disasters ever (the ACA) I assume you are up to date on the fact that this law is not even in affect yet fully and the cost to our government is going to be astronomical and he did this with less than 50% of americans wanting that particular bill and by manipulating the rules of the US Congress.....he is pushing the USA into a deal on Iran that is supported by about 22% of americans..TWENTY TWO..not a mistype and he did that with political backroom theatrics and still could not convince his own party of its merits.

I am not calling you names....not calling our President names...simply stating facts.

You agree on Sharpton ? THINK for a minute. Sharpton has been a tax cheat, felon who has lied his entire career, YET your President puts his total trust in him. Does that make you feel good about the judgement being used in the WH ?

What I said was "following Trump's lead"! That doesn't make him a leader. The posters here are using that same tactic as Trump by always using the extremes, ie: best, worst, etc. He obviously set the example, and posters here are following his example.

You have got to kidding on the Obama has single handedly destroyed congress, and how it works. So, the filibuster king, Mitch McConnell, skates all responsibility for congresses meltdown. The Tea Party has taken out almost all moderate Republicans, and that is Obama's fault. "Give us our country back". That comment was made early in his presidency, but he is the problem!

Back up the ACA comment with facts. Here is a fact for you the Kaiser Research Group stated from 1999 to 2009 the increase in health insurance premiums was 131%, and inflation during that period was 28%. You don't think that those types of increases, and the causes had to be addressed.

There is so much misinformation being spread about the Iran deal that has lead to the 22%. The Democrats in the Senate looked into in great detail the agreement, went into many classified meetings, contacted other countries involved in the sanctions, and then voted based upon what they found, and the alternatives. The Republicans rejected the deal before they even saw it. What was the alternative, a better deal.

Colin Powell says that the deal, if Iran complies, is a good deal. His comments are totally dismissed due to the color of his skin. That speaks volumes for the far right.
