Saying daily was an overstatement, but it feels like new information is always coming out that causes more smoke with his administration. This is not the liberal media and Democrats just making shit up. The House and Senate are actively investigating his administration as is the FBI. He had to get rid of Flynn and Sessions had to recuse himself. Maybe all of this will turn out to be just coincidence and maybe it won't but to say it is just bullshit being made up by liberals is being intellectually dishonest.

2) nato giving him a cool reception? NATO is packed with euro-libs...what did you expect? a red carpet?
|
Actually, yeah. A red metaphorical red carpet would be nice. The US is NATO. Without us it is a shadow of what it is. I actually agree with him when he says that NATO members need to be paying their share, but it just seems like he rubs everyone the wrong way. Maybe it would be okay for him to develop a good relationship with our allies before pissing them off. We need help in the Middle East and with North Korea. Now is the time to make friends, not be an ass.

3) your last paragraph was emotional partisan gibberish & not an argument. What is he supposed to do if congress is not passing anything? or did you forget he had to beat the GOP to be president? he is doing plenty of work at mar-a-lago, like ordering missile strikes. so stop whining.

I think it is stupid for him to hold a "Thank You Tour." I understand that a President wants to take his message tot he people. I also understand he can work when he is in Florida or flying to some rally, but he is not taking any message to the people other than "Love me, please!". To me, it looks bad when the GOP can't seem to stop fighting long enough to get anything of value done. Meanwhile, the leader of the party, Trump, is flying off to some place so people can cheer for him and make him better because he doesn't like it when the media is mean to him and wants him to tell the truth.
Sure, the GOP didn't want him, but HE chose them. He is now their leader. He made this bed, he has to lie in it.

It's not partisan liberal bullshit. I have no stomach for partisanship of any form. I am a realist. Trump stood on that stage every night during his campaign and made a bunch of promises. One of those was that his healthcare bill would make it so everyone would have much better heathcare at a fraction of the cost. The bill that he endorsed and helped get passed does nothing of that sort. He stood on that stage and said he wouldn't cut Social Security, Medicaid, or Medicare and yet the budget that his office released does exactly that. I understand the budget has to pass Congress and they will make big changes, but this budget represents his "wishlist" wich apparently is to do exactly what he said he wasn't going to do.
So, yeah, if wanting my President to stay home and deal with the problems this country is facing instead of flying halfway across the country so a group of his supporters can fondle his balls and make him feel loved makes me stupid, then I guess I am a dumbass.
