    LOL...

    35 of 37 economists said Trump was wrong. The other two misread the question.

    Keep in mind lots of Trump's promises depend on growth rates...

    IMF cuts 2017 growth forecasts for UK and US
    ‘Tepid performance’ so far of UK economy and Trump’s failure to deliver tax cuts lead to downgrade to 1.7% and 2.1% respectively

    He knows about Obamacare, for sure. He's been studying it for 17 years.

    I can completely understand people in general getting tired of the PC extremism that has come to this country the last several years. I'm very socially liberal myself but some of it has 100% gotten out of hand.

    In saying that I can not understand how the former (being annoyed by the super PC crowd) can cloud your thinking to the point where you like Trump. This article is disgusting. Children do not need to hear this crap.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he started a rant about the media, loyalty & his list of accomplishment at the next Medal of Honor ceremony, press conference with a foreign leader or similar events.

    Lol the smile on trump when they were booing was creepy. Definitely gave him a boner, he even let it continue. Give those kids some engraved knives and some decorative arm bands while you're at it.


    Next up, Mr. President is going to read to 4 year olds at the washington library only to break into how I defeated Obama in the Elections and it was beautiful, trillion people were there to witness it.. =)

    It is off-topic (deserves its own topic IMO) but as a former scout (something Obama was, Trump was never a scout) and a parent of two girl scouts... completely inappropriate and offensive. Each time I see Trump do something like this people ask how much lower he can go... and then he goes lower. The Scouts have had missteps in the past... this one was completely avoidable and the BSA leadership needs to issue an apology disavowing Trump's statements.

    I recall an article after Trump was elected that was guaging whether or not he was an authoritatian.

    One of the points against that notion was that he never proposed youth camps. That's a must for authoritarians apparently throughout history.

    Well now we see that he has a different plan for youth camps. Instead of starting a new one, let's just poison the minds of the existing boys club which is the largest in America.

    This is disgusting.

    Not lost in all this... BSA guidelines and laws prohibit much of what Trump said and did (and apparently, continues to do)...
