Donald Trump

[csb (Craig)]

Not a good start for Trump.

Failure of healthcare repeal bill to even get to a vote. Lack of support from his own party.

Twice fail on immigration bills.

Spurious accusation that Obama used wiretapping of Trump Tower. Nil evidence or even a suspicion of the wiretapping.

Is the Mexican border wall actually a positive victory?

Donald seems to not really understand that operating as the leader of government is different from being company/business leader.

I laughed out loud when president trump made a statement along the lines of "the bill didn't pass because none of the Democrats voted for it - not one". Uuuum, the Republicans have a clear majority in the house and don't need any Democrat votes - and why would any Democrat vote to help a president who pushed the Birther's movement and has dissed them with inuendo and falsehoods at every turn. what planet does he live on????

At least Trump is trying to go ahead with things that he said he would do (however misguided). So could we say he has courage of his conviction?
I wonder how many gutsers he will come before things get really nasty?

Very interesting what is happening in regard to the sacking of FBI chief Comey. Certainly has the potential for impeachment.

I tend to believe Comey's version after Trump posted this on twitter:

Donald J. Trump‏Verified account @realDonaldTrump Jun 9
Despite so many false statements and lies, total and complete vindication...and WOW, Comey is a leaker!


He totally disregards the implications of Comey's testimony to claim "total and complete vindication" (although this kind of twist is a common ploy by politicians & business leaders).


Then he calls Comey a "leaker". This is obviously intended to portray Mr Comey as not a credible witness nor trustworthy. However, there are many occasions where the person leaking info has had a good/moral/altruistic reason for doing so (ie, leaking can be a sign of honesty/courage).


He really should be cautious about his tweets and get someone to vet them. Certainly not fake news at all when it comes from the man himself.

I must admit that I am biased against Donald Trump.

Dislike Trump IMMENSELY but he's a trillion times more suitable than this twisted, maniacal, sadistic slug hell bent on global America:
