    It's basically what Obama ceded to others while in office everywhere he went.

    I am emotional because this is MY COUNTRY, and I GIVE A **** about how it is run, and Trump is ****ING IT UP !!!

    The economies indicators are we are going to have a very HARD fall from his policies - he is riding an economic wave that Obama put in place. People voting for thier pocket books over what is good for this country is annoying - they got a temporary tax break while TRUMP got billions and now our government is more broke than ever, there will be a CALL on that money - how are we gonna pay? Guess we can go through massive inflation...and print more, right?

    The biggest con here is that the Republican party has gotten people like you to vote against your own best interests.

    Personally, I WAS a conservative a long time ago, still am for smaller government - but i am much more of a socially moderate person.....medicade for all, universal income etc....why? Because I am a man who has spent his entire life reading indicators and building companies to react to them.....

    Robotics are taking jobs, we are going to be one big old cess pool of a country if we don't adjust to more of a socialist democratic situation.

    As for Trump he is a despicable Human being - a man who doesn't care about anyone but himself - and will screw anyone to get what he wants.

    The world would be better off if he were not in it.

    America still has pretty hard power. The problem with this accusation is internationally he has actually been pretty successful

    So another who cares?

    We know you're delusional. We know the Korean peninsula meetings were historic.

    You can give yourself a little more credit than that.

    But you should post a little less. You have become quite annoying, whether that was your intent or not.

    Woodward is a veteran reporter with a tremendous reputation as a straight shooter. Mattis is a smart and respected guy. Mattis also loves this country above anything else. More importantly, Mattis KNOWS he is one of the few guys left in the administration that can prevent Trump from starting World War III. If Trump fires him due to the expose in the book, all hell could potentially break lose. Therefore, Mattis is wise to distance himself from these quotes so he can be around a little longer until Trump gets replaced.

    So what are the things he has done that is alright to justify having an unfit president?

    He's picked 2 solid SCOTUS justices, the economy is doing well, he's made some progress when it comes to foreign affairs.....I mean, despite the whining and b****ing all the time, there's not really anything bad happening. Perhaps that is why they are most upset, there's no valid reason for them to b**** and moan but they feel like they have to anyway.

    Also, as I said before, having an unfit president was guaranteed once the Democrats nominated Hillary. All things considered, this unfit president is doing a pretty good job thus far.

    Brilliant argument hero, just the type of quality post I can always expect from a person such as yourself.

    I would say "You know I'm right", but let's face it, you aren't bright enough to know that I'm right on this.
