AND still not one single piece of legislation.

It is all bluster and EOs, all of which can be overturned by a signing ceremony as he did.

We need change of substance, not BS.

He has some good ideas, but is insistent on foolishness and personally attacking is not serving him well.

Oh, and this appears to be copied from the White House web site..right ?

And legislation requires congress and makes law. These EOs are just as reverseable as Obams's

I guess some of you still don't understand that congress writes laws (legislation) and the President signs them. Trump has still done more more in the short time he has been in office than Obie did in 8 years. After all, it takes time to clean house. Especially when the left continues to have tantrums and lays down in the road of progress. Tell schumer to get up and get to work and stop hindering traffic. Never mind, you will just find something else to complain about. Your first black man did not pave the road for the first stupid felon female so I can see how you are upset. Blame it on Obie, if you dare.

Yes he did. He has appointed a lot of people from outside the beltway which is exactly what draining the swamp means. He's appointed many people from the real world who understand the real world as opposed to career politicians who only understand things from a warped Washington perspective.

But, he has also kept enough politicians in positions in order to help him navigate the politics of Washington.

As far as I can see it's a perfect blend of real problem solvers and necessary evils.

Do you know where your head will be if Trump suddenly stops ???

I will stand up and cheer if Trump can do anything at all.

He is alienating congress, including Republicans, with his big mouth.

He has done nothing of note yet except. return the financial market back to where they were before they collapsed. All the rest of what he has done is okay "studies", and if anything like his looking into voter fraud that he screamed about and ordered an investigation, or his other loud mouthed antics, we will never hear about them again. His 90 days and we learn about the fight on ISIS....is just a memory, and I could go on.

You actually need to read what is going on and not get captured by those far extreme right wing sites who will tell you.

Why does this man, who claims he wants to put the current investigation into his campaign to rest, allow an independent investigator ? Carl Bernstien, who knows a bit more than you.....feels "strongly" that the FBI has a strong belief that there is a cover up underway, BUT because the WH will not appoint a special investigator or allow more investigators, they are stuck with just SEVEN people.

PLEASE read.....he is spending more time looking for trouble than erasing it.R

PS....by the way, my post is factual and unlike you I stand ready to give links and information to back up my statements. You complain about any backup supplied....either you just want to bury your head or are reading impaired, as you only sources are FAKE news sites with phoney medical statements. Just, as you already have once, wish death on all those who do not support Trum

Do not know the person but he is acutely aware where many of the posters on this board have their heads.

BLIND loyalty with no questions is just not a good thing, but these posters seem to feel that they need no education on issues, nor to pay attention because Trump will handle it.

Of course he never lies.

Buddy of mine shared a great phrase, he "says" he invented....

"To accuse someone of felonies with no substance given has now become presidential. What direction are we headed ?"

Remember when that was not a nice thing to do....now it is PRESIDENTIAL

TROLL

"One who posts a deliberately provocative message to a newsgroup or message board with the intention of causing maximum disruption and argument"

"Someone with nothing worthwhile to add to a certain conversation, but rather continually threadjacks or changes the subject, as well as thinks every member of the forum is talking about them and only them."

Urban Dictionary: troll

Your the guy who called him silly and dumb. Go ahead blame that on Trump too!

I agree you seldom have anything worthwhile to post...usually paragraphs of someone else's words...bolded!

If you do post your own words it is about how your an expert with 50 years in the political arena (that voted for someone that wasn't even running for president)...ineffective way of trying to add weight your views...stupid old man!

If, and I cannot imagine why, anyone is interested, as you read on this forum and oft tines look to see who posted, make a mental note of the times you read DIRTBANKER ever, ever actually commenting on an issue.

That will require no pencil and paper because ther will be none.

There is wonderment how or why an adult (that is an assumption on my part) would spend time trolling a board where he does not even understand what might be going on.

Now, if he were trolling on a child's site (I would suppose he might) where the subject matter might allow him to partake, rather than simply...well whatever besides trolling he is doing.

It must hurt quite a bit to not only be unable to understand the bigger words, but not understand any of the subject matter must be frustrating.

Does CANDYLAND have a forum ?

LOL, Thanks for proving my point stupid old man!

Now, you should apologize to Warren so you look less hypocritical...

Just want to comment that I have never been on Social Security Disability. Never in my life. And I am fully capable of working and am doing something with my life right now but should not have to contend with junior high level trolls, cyberstalkers or cyber harassers. Even on the TOTV Political Forum which its posters should police if the Moderator refuses to do so.

Don Baldwin just sticks to his ridiculous and simplistic ideas of race. But there are some people on here who make this Political Forum a place to be avoided because of how nasty it has become in personal attacks especially on anyone who criticizes President Donald John Trump. He and his policies are very much fair game; other people, especially the private lives of the posters should be off of limits.

Don Baldwun is nothing more than a TROLL.

He seems to believe foreign born people will populate the US completely.

Where is the outrage from posters who have foreign born spouses against the Troll? I know of at least two on this forum fitting that criteria.

Obviously, like other big words, you do not know the definition of TROLL.

I may not agree with Don but he can back everything he says with references. More than I can say for ANY libtard on here. If you wish to battle with Don over anything he says, you had better bring a flashlight, batteries, food and water to last the duration, because it will be a long battle. I doubt you can defeat him. Especially with your little insults.

"Weird" for now...in 30 years it will be mainstream thought as America has degraded past #50 in most world rankings as the Hispanic population passes 50%.

The long slow fall as the minority majority takes over politically and turns America into another minority failed state.

What exactly is "weird" about that? They're already the majority of new babies, the majority below the age of 7...and growing in numbers while whites decrease in numbers.

America has dropped in quality as the number of minorities has risen. It's an undeniable fact...proven over and over again. It's how countries and cultures are destroyed...how they go extinct. Dilution of the people leads to loss of culture.
