President Trump has stoked in middle class Iranians something their leaders long failed to arouse: a strong sense of nationalism and “widespread public support for the hard-line view that the United States cannot be trusted,” suggests Thomas Erdbrink in the New York Times. “Iranians listened during the 2016 campaign as Mr. Trump denounced the Iran nuclear treaty as ‘the worst deal ever negotiated’ and promised to tear it up. They watched in horror when, as president, he sold more than $100 billion worth of weapons to the kingdom of Saudi Arabia and participated in a traditional war dance in Riyadh. And they are alarmed at the foreign policy moves of the young Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, whom they see as hotheaded and inexperienced. You think I'm a "terrorist sympathizer" because I KNOW MORE THAN YOU DO about who the terrorists really are. And they are not Iranians. |

Our President is an insulting machine, and an embarrassment around the world.
WASHINGTON — President Trump used a White House event honoring Navajo veterans of World War II on Monday to utter a favorite Native American-related insult of a political opponent, deriding Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.” Standing in the Oval Office alongside three World War II Navajo code talkers, Mr. Trump made the unscripted comment after other officials praised the veterans’ history and contributions. “You were here long before any of us were here,” Mr. Trump said as he turned to look at the code talkers. “Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas.” Trump Again Derides Warren as ‘Pocahontas,’ This Time at Event Honoring Navajo Veterans - The New York Times |

I am impressed how long the anti Trump ramblings have lasted and unfortunately show no signs of letting up.
It would be much more useful if there were more point and counterpoint discussions without the daily anti Trump hammering in every other sentence. I usually stop reading any post that veers off in the bashing direction with no point made yet. I don't know why disagreeing opinions are not respected. It must be the Pelosi/Shummer influence is stronger than we thought. |

Point/counterpoint requires a two way conversation. Trump supplies so much in the way of lies, false accusTions, etc. They get posted and frankly, the folks like you refuse to offer any counterpoint. I have mentioned that many times, and agree with your point. I have maintained that a President who lies....or makes false accusations, etc., etc is an ISSUE and needs discussion. Unfortunetly, the only response from Trump,supporters is either profanity, or to blame the media, which has been proven to be a false and simoly slander way to go. I would love to have an actual discussion. I have begun threads on tax, etc...NOTHING from Trump supporters, except the old..."blame the messenger and ignore the actual message". BTK, whether you like it or not, Trump is the issue...there is nothing but executive orders, and his failures in legislation and his ego. Trust me, I would love to have an actual back and forth about this presidency, but you guys simply refuse to even respond...it is just attack the press, and they do a great job. |

What we were thinking is that he'd do the fantastic job that he's doing. The economy is growing like crazy, companies are coming back to the country, unemployment is way down, illegal immigration has slowed dramatically, taxes will soon be lowered, and, most importantly, we have someone who understands and goes by the Constitution on the Supreme Court.
We are regaining the respect of the rest of the world as our military is being rebuilt and we are safer. That's what I was thinking would happen. Now if we can only get the few idiot Republicans in Congress to get on board, we could really get things moving. |

Too bad Bill Bennett couldn't eliminate the Dept of Education like he wanted to do when Reagan appointed him. Most of these agencies only serve to get federal dollars into the hands of special interest groups. They are also a way for members of Congress to do favors in return for campaign contributions. Most of them don't actually do what their name implies. |

He’s correct. World leaders don’t trust him and take him for a dangerous demagogue. Those true to themselves can not deny that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Growing the economy by lowering taxes will only increase the debt if Congress spends more than we take in. Don't forget, Congress does all of the spending. The president only spends the White House budget. The debt we currently have and each year's deficit has been caused by overspending, not under-taxing. In years where the economy grew and revenues to the government increased with it, Congress outspent the increases in revenues. Trump has always used debt to make money. It's what smart businesspeople do. It's also known as using other people's money. Every business in existence starts out in debt and usually carries debt. Debt is not always a bad thing. |
