After declaring an emergency you wouldn't think you would hear a President saying that but that was than and this is now. His base hates the other side so it's all good. I look forward to the next Obama with a much broader leeway to bypass congress if the courts don't knock this out. Thanks in advance

i.e., you're hoping for a Democrat Bolshevik revolution. And there's plenty in the Democrat 2020 candidates' rhetoric to show that goal. Regardless of what Trump does now.


Trump made every effort to compromise with the Democrats, but they just wouldn't budge. And ultimately, Trump is using his executive powers to do exactly what 46% of the country elected him to do. The last of the many promises he has fulfilled.
Unlike Obama, Trump is not using his executive powers to hijack the country and do things he was never elected to do, but to do precisely what he promised and was elected on in Nov 2016.

That's really funny coming from the guy who can't accept or process the result of the 2016 election, and routinely calls the president a "piece of shit".

You apparently missed in the last week when the Senate ended their investigation of Trump saying there was absolutely no evidence in 2 years of investigation of Trump/Russia "collusion". So Russia didn't "win the popular vote with the help of Russia". That is a vicious and disproven lie, and just further evidence that you won't accept Constitutional rule of law and the 2016 election result. And that your side would undo a legitimate election by any deceit you can manufacture.

Again, wishful thinking. Trump has accomplished far more at this point in his presidency than Obama did. On most days (even with the media attacking Trump, whereas the media were the wind at Obama's back artificially pumping him up and elevating his poll numbers) Trump polls better than Obama did at the same point in his term.

You are delusional with hatred of Trump.

Regarding the intelligence, what it found is that some Russiaan internet "bots" were stoking division in the U.S., just as they have in multiple previous presidential elections, and the purpose was not so much to help Trump as it was to stoke division and distrust of the elections on both sides (Democrats and Republicans). The investigation found that it ultimately didn't have any effect. As proof of that, the Russians thought Hillary was going to win, and the best they could do was undermine confidence in Hillary post-election. So obviously their plans didn't succeed, as they couldn't even orchestrate who the winner would be.

You are just clinging to the wildest and most maliciously untue conspiracy theories, in your desperation to undermine Trump. And aall the evidence (Fusion GPS, Christopher Steele, Uranium One...) is that Hillary Clinton and the DNC, not Trump, are the ones who were colluding directly with Russian agents, and paying millions for the information to smear Trump. That even the likes of Comey and McCabe said was "unreliable" and "salacious", in their deceitful attempts to destroy Trump's candidacy, and post-election, his presidency.

It's pretty clear what party is absolute shit garbage with no ethics, and openly treasonous, and it isn't Donald Trump. You should be ashamed of what you instead condone by your Bolshevik party.

Trump win was aim of Russia
To much intel blows away your spin WB. It has to be pretty depressing to know a lot of your posts were not much different than what the Russian bot farms were producing. And while I think Trump is an awful shitty person let me draw a distinction between us. Unlike you I do not have anything close to the level of vitriol for my fellow countrymen who are republicans that you level at democrats on a daily basis. Principles are not a political party.

Again, your wishful thinking, M E M.
The Russians thought Hillary would win, and they were as surprised as everyone else when Trump won the election. Even before Trump won, the Russians thought the best they could do was create doubt in the legitimacy of a President Hillary.

And AGAIN: Congressionaal investigation showed that despite their best efforts, the Russian did not have any significant effect on the election. Trump won in spite of the Russians, not because of them.
ALSO: Russian bots posted divisive rhetoric for both sides. Their goal was to undermine confidence in the 2016 election, not to win the election for either candidate.

Trump approval poll ratings, Rasmussen:
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_c...l_index_history


Again, a popular president with higher poll approval than Obama at the same point in his presidency. Quantifiably less "shitty" than Obama.
And in point of fact, the most accomplished president in 50 years, by every economic measure.
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_c...ingly_long_list
As well as tax reform, renegotiated treaties, breakthrough negotiations with North Korea breaking the stalemate of the last 66 years (Japan's president appears to have recommended Trump for a Nobel peace prize on that), standing up to and on the brink of negotiating a deal with China, stopping 3 decades of China's fleecing the U.S. on trade and cyber-theft, getting NATO nations to finally pay their fair share, an early release and second chance for tens of thousands of black prisoners --who even have jobs waiting for them!

Aside from your liberal sour grapes, there is not evidence that Trump is a "shitty" president. Far from it, he is the first president since Reagan to keep his promises and quantifiably improve the country.
And quantifiably, Trump is more accomplisshed in his first year than even Ronald Reagan. (Trump 64%, Reagan 53%)

Rasmussen had Romney really beating the heck out of Obama in '12. And shitty is shutting the government down for a campaign promise for his base than declaring an emergency to sidestep congress and in his own words admits he didn't need to do it.

Uh... it is Trump who had sympathy for 800,000 workers and ended the shutdown for their benefit, whereas Schumer and Pelosi have NO regard for workers and whould have shut down the government forever at their expense, just to spite Trump.
And again, the rationalization for Democrats to cause the shutdown is illogical, because every last Democrat leaders, using almost the exact same words as Trump, has expressed the need to secure the border and not treat illegals the same way we treat legal green-card immigrants. THE EXACT SAME WORDS. Yet now they won't fund exactly what they advocated 2 years ago?

It is the Democrats who are clearly lying shit garbage. Not Trump, who made a promise, was elected on that promise, and is doing his damnedest to keep it for the people who voted for him on exactly that policy. The policy Democrats lyingly advocated and then broke their promise on.

Trump caused the shutdown and kept it going. He's the one who was trying to use the shutdown as leverage to fulfill his campaign promise. After all that he than declares an emergency that in his own words didn't need to do. That's shitty in my book

That's pretty head-in-ass logic.

Trump is the one who ended the shutdown, whereas Schumer and Pelosi would have kept it going indefinitely, just to spite Trump.

What caused the shutdown is Demcorat obstruction of a border wall that EVERY LAST DEMOCRAT PREVIOUSLY SUPPORTED! And these same Democrats actually funded far more border wall construction in each of the W. Bush and Obama presidencies than Trump wanted funds to build now.
There is no logic to Democrats not funding the border security Trump asked for, that they previously (and vocally, in videotaped speeches) themselves supported. DEMOCRATS caused the shutdown, not Trump. And as I cited previously, their shutdown actually cost more than the funds Trump requested.

No, it's clear Trump was using the shutdown as leverage to try to get his way. I understand both sides have their partisans who shovel the talking points but the blame for a shutdown does fall on those that try to use it as leverage. Trump was clearly trying to do that. It was a case of him wanting the extra money for his wall or else the shutdown would continue. Since he never had the backing of the majority of the American people to continue the shutdown he resorted to declaring a fake emergency that in his own words didn't need to do.

Democrats across two previous (W. Bush and Obama) presidencies, vocally supported securing the border. It is clear who is fronting a false and inconsistent narrative (the Democrats), and who is advocating for what DEMOCRATS THEMSELVES said they wanted but under Trump won't support.

The drug trafficking and rape/child-rape that goes on every day, that is enriching the Mexican drug cartels, is what that Democrats fully support with their obstruction of border security. There are no talking points, those are the facts. Your Democrat liars are the ones who are clearly endangering the nation.

In one year, drug overdoses killed more Americans than the entire Vietnam War did

 Quote:
More Americans died of drug overdoses in 2016 than died in the entirety of the Vietnam War — the result of the US’s opioid epidemic.

That’s one takeaway from a new report by Josh Katz for the New York Times, based on preliminary data estimating how many Americans died of drug overdoses last year.

The official, more precise numbers will be available later in 2017 — once the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) finishes tabulating and verifying reports from across the US.

In the meantime, the Times contacted local and state agencies across the US to come up with a rough estimate. It calculated that 59,000 to 65,000 people died of overdoses last year, with a harder, but likely imprecise, number of 62,497.


In comparison, more than 58,000 US soldiers died in the entire Vietnam War, nearly 55,000 Americans died of car crashes at the peak of such deaths in 1972, more than 43,000 died due to HIV/AIDS during that epidemic's peak in 1995, and nearly 40,000 died of guns during the peak of those deaths in 1993.

The Times can’t specify how many of the overdose deaths were caused by opioids, much less what kind of opioid — painkillers, heroin, or fentanyl — was behind the deaths. But based on the past few years’ trends and on-the-ground reports, most of the overdose deaths were likely linked to opioids and an increasing amount were linked to fentanyl.

The total, if it holds true, would surpass 2015’s record for most recorded drug overdose deaths in US history. Back then, more than 52,000 deaths were linked to overdoses. The Times estimates there was a 19 percent increase between 2015 and 2016 alone, which would be the largest known increase in drug overdose deaths for any single year yet.

Although it’s hard to say for certain, the Times suggested “the problem has continued to worsen in 2017.”

In short, the opioid epidemic was already the deadliest in American history in 2015. And it got much deadlier in 2016 — and is likely even worse so far in 2017.




Democrats are the party of lies that pretends there isn't a crisis and an immediate need to secure the border.

ICE dumping immigrants in border towns due to overcrowding at detention centers


 Quote:
EL PASO, Texas -- Faced with overcrowding at migrant shelters, Immigration and Customs Enforcement is dumping illegal immigrants in border towns, sometimes by the busloads.

In El Paso, a Texas border town already taking in dozens of migrants a day, ICE said it may have to release 500 people a day to relieve the overcrowding situation at federal detention centers.
I’m concerned. We’re up to 2,300 per week. If we get up to 500 a day, it’s going to be very taxing,” said Mayor Dee Margo.

Non-profit organizations in Texas, like the Annunciation House, are finding themselves scrambling to find housing for the immigrants. The house has taken the lead in connecting the migrants to a network of 20 shelters it operates, which include high school gyms and places of worship.



“Over the past two, three months, the volume of families, individuals being released has increased,” said Ruben Garcia, Annunciation House director.

After migrants are arrested by Customs and Border Protection and given a court date by immigration officials, they are released. Many of the immigrants don't stay in the border cities and instead often leave by bus or plane to meet friends, family members, or sponsors in different parts of the country.
Still, the growing number of immigrants getting dropped off in the border towns is straining resources.

Last week, ICE dumped hundreds of migrants into the streets of El Paso, drawing criticism from immigration activists and shelters. Garcia said ICE usually gives them advance notice prior to releasing migrants – but did not do so in this case.

“I think that it’s important to state that it is unacceptable to release families with children, some of them very young children to the street. That, we have to say, is non-negotiable. That is simply not acceptable,” said Garcia.
ICE has defended the practice, saying that a spike in border crossings is giving the agency few other options.

“Due to the rising influx of family units crossing the border, NGOs have expressed they are over capacity and cannot accommodate all the family unit releases,” the agency said in a statement.
The agency added that due to a decades-old court agreement called the Flores Settlement, it can only detain families for a limited period of time before eventually being forced to release them.

The immigrant dumping is not only happening in Texas. In Arizona last Thursday, 80 migrants were dropped off at a Phoenix Greyhound bus station.

University of Texas at El Paso Political Science Professor Todd Curry said he believes the deaths of two children in Customs and Border Protection custody last month is contributing to the spike in releases.

“They [ICE] don’t want it to happen again. And, they don’t have the infrastructure to handle it. So, they’re getting rid of it,” Curry said.

ICE has denied that is the case.

SAN DIEGO NON-PROFITS RUNNING OUT OF SPACE FOR MIGRANT CARAVAN ASYLUM SEEKERS

The number of releases tends to fluctuate – but officials in El Paso said they have not experienced the numbers they are currently seeing.

Releases averaged about 200 a week in January and February last year, and there have been surges in the past as well—one in 2014 and another in 2016. Garcia said because of the uptick in border crossers, ICE has increased the number of releases.

Please tell me some more how this isn't an actual crisis, and how Trump is responsible for Democrats' refusal to secure the border. Trump has a principled goal of securing the border. Democrats are hypocritically engaging in demagoguery and false narrative just to score a political win, at the cost of actual lives. Tens of thousands of them.

All this chaos is being orchestrated by the Democrats. And all the overdoses, all the rapes, all the American citizens vicitmized by illegals who shouldn't even be here are evidence of Demcorats' cynical indifference to the suffering caused by their obstruction of the law.

Democrats are for border security. They had money in the budget and were even willing to increase the amount to get a deal done. As it turns out Trump ended up declaring an emergency that in his own words didn't need to do. You're are literally arguing against even what he's admitted.

Could you possibly really believe that?!?

Democrats have been weak on border security for decades, and they don't favor anything that would truly secure the border. Quite the opposite, they think the more illegals they admit, the more Democrat voters they will have.
They demonize anyone who wants to secure the border with a wall.
They are the party of sanctuary cities.
They won't even advocate the deportation of known criminals! And they obstruct ICE from arresting criminal aliens in custody, enabling known criminal illegals to hurt even more people!

Democrats offered $1.7 billion initially, that was still far less than the 5.7 billion Trump needed to do the job. And really, 25 billion to do the whole job. Even 25 billion is a drop in the bucket, that would more than pay for itsef in the first year it secured the border. The Demcorats hose more than that away on gas emissions from cows, Solyndra, GE, and high speed railways to nowhere. What Trump requests would be about 0.3% of the annual budget. Pure Democrat obstruction and spite.

Democrats are interested in giving lip service to border security, and in the past have taken posturing steps toward border security without actually securing it, while in truth have undermined actually securing the border.

When Democrats eliminate sanctuary cities, stop demonizing ICE, and actually cooperate with ICE to transfer custody of illegals released from jail instead of purposely not informing ICE of their release as Democrat political leaders do, then and only then will I believe they really want to secure the border.

If you had any credibility I guess I would care. You can't even be consistent within a thread about democrats. They are whatever suits your partisan needs no matter the reality. And I think you have avoided how Trump has just declared an emergency that he says he didn't need to. Really seems a pure lack of principles involved imho.

I've been pretty consistent. Democrats are the party of deceit, and of hating/undermining America.

Cited and linked, I've also shown how Democrats are the party that hurts the very people they allege to be protecting. You can't get around the lying rhetoric of your party, M E M. What they allege to oppose is exactly what they were advocating, right up until Trump's presidency.
And AS I PREVIOUSLY SAID, Trump is using his executive powers that he is Constitutionally within his rights to do, to take quick and decisive action to protect the nation, and to do the will of the people who elected him in 2016.. And in 2018 as well, when voters widened his Senate majority, something rare in a mid-term election.
Trump is not opposing the will of the people, he is using his executive power to do their bidding. As opposed to Obama, who was elected on a set of promises he didn't keep, and then used a "nuclear option" to pass an Obamacare that 53% of America made clear they didn't want, and used executive orders to pass DACA and a lot of other things voters opposed and never elected Obama to do.

If Trump did not have the authority to do what he did, we would still be governed by the Articles of Confederation, rather than the Constitutuin as we are. We have an executive leader to take quick and decisive action in cases of national emergencies, and that is precisely what Trump has done. And unlike Obama, Trump is using that authority to ddo precisely what he was elected to do. Despite treasonous and spiteful Democrat obstruction.

Flashback to 2014, in the latter 2 years of Obama's presidency. Where even doing a minimal deportation of illegals caused 52% of the Democrats' hispanic base to oppose their policy. That's the point where the Democrats went rabidly open-borders and zero enforcement:

I've been pretty consistent. Democrats are the party of deceit, and of hating/undermining America.

Cited and linked, I've also shown how Democrats are the party that hurts the very people they allege to be protecting. You can't get around the lying rhetoric of your party, M E M. What they allege to oppose is exactly what they were advocating, right up until Trump's presidency.
And AS I PREVIOUSLY SAID, Trump is using his executive powers that he is Constitutionally within his rights to do, to take quick and decisive action to protect the nation, and to do the will of the people who elected him in 2016.. And in 2018 as well, when voters widened his Senate majority, something rare in a mid-term election.
Trump is not opposing the will of the people, he is using his executive power to do their bidding. As opposed to Obama, who was elected on a set of promises he didn't keep, and then used a "nuclear option" to pass an Obamacare that 53% of America made clear they didn't want, and used executive orders to pass DACA and a lot of other things voters opposed and never elected Obama to do.

If Trump did not have the authority to do what he did, we would still be governed by the Articles of Confederation, rather than the Constitutuin as we are. We have an executive leader to take quick and decisive action in cases of national emergencies, and that is precisely what Trump has done. And unlike Obama, Trump is using that authority to ddo precisely what he was elected to do. Despite treasonous and spiteful Democrat obstruction.


You've been consistently partisan with your allegations of treason and conspiracy. And the lump of shit wasn't elected by winning the popular vote of the American people but the electoral college. Obama both times actually won by getting more votes and you bitched about power grabs for 8 years..

I've cited the evidence that Trump is reacting to a crisis.

And Trump is not the first president to win the electoral vote but not the popular vote.

And as I said, Obama was elected on one agenda and then (Saul Alinsky tactics) pursued a completely different agenda once in office. Whereas Trump has done his damnedest to fulfill all his campaign promises. Which is precisely why the Democrats are so hell-bent on preventing Trump from securing the border. Despite their exposed hypocrisy in doing so.

His own words expose it for the sham it is. And there is plenty out there to refute your narrative. And Obama actually tried being President of the whole nation as opposed to just pleasing his base.

Obama is a cultural marxist revolutionary hell-bent on destroying the United States. Like Hillary Clinton, a student of Saul Alinsky, who used to teach Alinsky's Rules For Radicals to classrooms of ACORN "community organizers" like himself ("community organizer" being the deceitful euphemism for marxist street agitator). From Valerie Jarret to Eric Holder, to Anita Dunn to Mark Lloyd to Van Jones to America-hating marxxist radical wife Michelle, Obama's White House was filled to capacity with America-hating radicals.

Your party (and accellerated by Obama as president) has escalated its marxist radicalism, and seeks open borders, sanctualry cities, obstructs capture of even criminal illegals, has brought 10 trillion in new debt that threatens to collapse the United States, and has printed $3 trillion in new currency on top of that, and in every way seeks to cripple and overthrow the United States. Through sequestration destroyed our military. The Democrats, including Obama, openly attack the police, and ICE/Border Patrol.

As I said, Trump used executive power to circumanavigate the Democrats' treasonous obstruction of securing our borders, exactly what the people elected Trump to do. Far from the insurrection of Obama and his Democrat Bolsheviks, Trump is acting to protect and secure the United States.


  • from Do Racists have lower IQ's...

    Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.

    EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.

Obama was actually more fiscally responsible than Trump and steered us out of one the worst recessions in history while expanding people's access to health care. That greatness I think will be enduring. Greatness tends to endure no matter the current partisan hatred at the time.

Please! At least half of Obama's 8 years had record annual deficits of 1.5 or 1.6 trillion a year.
Beyond that, as I said, Obama more than tripled the amount of printed currency from 800 billion when he too office, more than quadrupling it with over 3 trillion more in printed currency. That is Weimar Republic territory. Look up Weimar Republic 1923. The reason Germans were ready for Hitler is because they were literally starving to death. Although Hitler enacted a similar deficit spending to createe millions of government jobs as FDR did in the United States. For both the U.S. and Germany, subsidized jobs was s short-term stop-gap, the war economy is what pulled both out of the depression.

So... spare me the propaganda that Obama was "more responsible". He barely kept us out of recession for 8 years, and created a huge new bubble of debt that, if Trump does nothing to reverse it, could by itself collapse the U.S. economy and the dollar, just snowballing the interest on the debt we already owe. Just doubling the current interest rate on the debt would collapse the economy. Courtesy of America-hating cultural marxist, anti-colonialist, liberation-theology , Cloward-Piven strategy of manufacture a crisis and amid the panic do a massive wealth redistribition. Or as Obama chief of staff Rahm Emmanuel termed it "Never let a crisis go to waste." (Particularly one you orchestrated.)
Or as Hillary Clinton said: "It's important to have a public strategy and a private strategy." Which perfectly mirrors the insurrectionist pretend to be moderate, and once in power enact a radical policy strategy tactics of Saul Alinsky, who is the central ideological influence on both Obama and Hillary. They are the enemy, and anyone who feels otherwise just doesn't understand the ideological influences, connections and personal staff of both Obama and Hillary. From Saul Alinsky to Valerie Jarrett, to William Ayers to Huma Abedin to Jennifer Palmieri on down. Obama and Hillary's own words in speeches and public comments make clear their rabidly anti-American radicalism. The only America they love is the one they can radically transform us into.
And certainly, Elizabeth Warren, Corey Booker, Kamalah Harris, Reid, Pelosi and Ocasio-Cortez are part of the same satanic coven. They don't even pretend otherwise anymore. I'm in disbelief that zombies like you are still cheering them on. Are you blind to the fact that they unqquestionably want to destroy this country? They don't even hide it. If so, I could easily see you helping Che Gueverra or Stalin shoot a steady stream prisoners in the back of the head at some "re-education center".

No propaganda needed on my end WB. More jobs were created during Obama's last 2 years than Trump's. Because of your partisan hatred you can't even acknowledge the gains made under Obama.

AGAIN: Even in Trump's first year as president, he had already achieved the best economic performance numbers since 2000. Last time I checked, that FAR precedes Obama's 2009-2017 term.

Now two years in, Trump has the best economic performance numbers in 50 years. In desperately trying to prop up Obama's crumbling reputation, Dems like yourself cherry-pick a few good months of Obama's presidency that had good employment numbers. But that masks the overall 8 years of failure of Obama, the worst president since the great depression in terms of the lowest economic growth (less than 2% per year). And lost millions of jobs in the first 3 years of his presidency, and had economic policy that stifled business growth/recovery and jobs creation in the latter half of his 8 years.
The same jobs-killing ideology and programs that Elizabeth "Pocahantas" Warren and Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez would unleash again if given power to do so. That would drive wealth and industry out of the United States.

If you want to see what these policies do to a country, just look at Venezuela.

And as I said you can't even recognize that the economy under Obama was more than a couple of good months. Trump inherited a good economy from Obama. Republicans once again now don't care about deficit spending like they do when they are in power so you have a boost to the economy with unpaid for tax cuts and increased spending.

I've cited the numbers before. The latter half of Obama's presidency was just regaining the MILLIONS of jobs lost in Obama's first 3 years. You can't mask and put a happy face on the fact that Obama oversaw the lowest ecomic growth of any presidency since the Great Depression.

Period.

Trump’s list: 289 accomplishments in just 20 months, ‘relentless’ promise-keeping



That's why Democrats are desperate to obstruct Trump. If they can prevent Trump from keeping his election promises, they think they can prevent him from being re-elected in 2020.
They would rather destroy the country than let Trump improve the nation and win. Trump is bringing back factories and jobs, rebuilding the middle class, and improving the lives of people across every racial demographic, and Democrats try to distract from that and divide the nation by screaming "racist". And/or "Russia collusion."
