Who cared what he has or hasnt done in 100 days? Look what he walked into. He had to follow the worst POTUS in modern history. Lets see after 4 years. Or, if he is held to the same standard as Obama, lets see after 8 years.

forget that, he'll never we be held to Obama's standard. Obama received no criticism from MSM

You may find it hard to believe, but nothing you say here is true, other than "pro-Trump" outlets getting an FBI investigation, because they're Russian smear campaigns in reality.

The media, while admittedly liberal in general, never did its actual job with Trump. The only time it actually did its job with Trump was with *****gate. Other than that they couldn't have helped him more had they intended it.

The media never truly examined all of Trump's scandals and corruption. The man literally has 30-40 years of abject depravity and corruption to choose from, including his culminating act of colluding with the Kremlin to win the 2016 election (which was obvious since at least November/December to anyone who actually gave a damn), and yet the media just focused on his stupid tweets.

For the record, you're so over your head, just like Trump, I don't understand why you keep trying.

That's not the media's job. That is for intelligence agencies to conclude. Can we bring up Hillary's scandals and corruption? I mean, it's only fair.

Sociology professor 😂

As you read the analysis, keep in mind that Steve Schmidt is one of the main reasons that Sarah Palin ever became relevant.

Trump is an assclown.... but he's an assclown that won an election. The last 100 days are as much about the environment as they are about Trump himself.

Trump created the environment he now finds himself having to live in. Every person (at least that I know) knew all along that if Trump, by some seemingly incomprehensible cosmic joke, actually won the election, he would be met with exactly the response we have seen. Every chance Trump had to lay a foundation for a more amicable environment, he arrogantly tossed away. His supporters ate it up. What was required for him to win is also what guaranteed his ultimate failure. A Catch 22 that many saw, but evidently not all. All of the people that wanted to "blow it up" and "burn it all down" are seeing what that means.

While I will forever throw libertarianism under the bus, where it belongs, you are one of the rare good guys in their ranks that I will actually listen to. In fact, even defend at times.

You are a true patriot. A very misguided one, in my opinion, but a true patriot.

A genuine good guy.

With shrinking departments, I mean staff cuts.
Bringing back manufacturing because of less regulations and lower cost is a good thing. Bringing it back because of increased barriers is a bad thing. We have to use tariffs as a threat so we don't get taken advantage of anymore. For us to trade our product into China, we pay tariffs and duties.

No. We don't have to use tariffs. We can continue doing the things that make us the wealthiest country in the world. I'd prefer that.

We are not getting taken advantage of. People who don't understand the economics of trade are being taken advantage of by Trump.

You know Trump can write an EO on the wall and Congress can't stop him? The last administration was strangling the economy so much that it was going to crash. Unfortunately those signs haven't been completely stopped yet.

What's wrong with encouraging businesses to stay here? Or even publicly shaming them? That's what tax reform is.

I also forgot, to implement a new regulation, you have to take out two existing ones. That's also a new rule.

Well I *think* an EO could be challenged by Congress if a majority believed that it had not granted the POTUS authority to do so on a certain issue. Any rate, bogus EOs to date have been blocked judicially of course.

Businesses considering moving operations... Agreed but I'm a fan of the invisible hand. The main problem IMO isn't our taxes or system... Rather its countries like China that fail to open their markets to our firms while we're essentially open to theirs.

It is impossible for our companies to trade with China as they are allowed to Dump their goods on us. Why should we continue to support unilateral agreements that aren't free trade?

The president has the only authority to change things like immigration policy and national security. The Travel Ban being rejected is actually not in the judiciary's authority. It's overreach.
90% of his EOs have not been rejected.

Where do you get this stuff? Do you actually believe what The Donald is Tweeting? :loco: Come on, man, this is common knowledge... you're smarter than this.

To be clear, your complaint is that China is selling us cheap goods?

You probably need to think about that for a minute.

^ This pretty much sums him up with one word. I don't care what your politics or ideology is.

He has taken dumbassery to a level that I did not think was possible for a President of the USA.

Some of you would not stand for such levels of incompetence from a Tennessee football coach. The fact that some support, accept and defend for our President is mind-boggling.

Guess what that doesn't apply to thanks to the Patriot Act and NDAA?

What good are cheap goods when people are unemployed?
Click to expand...

Low prices are good for everybody, even the people who are unemployed. If they can't eventually find another job than they are ****ing losers and manipulating the economy to save losers is going to make everybody into losers. It's like the "everybody gets a trophy" or "everybody gets a passing grade" mentality that holds us back.

Cheap goods are a reason people are employed. 50% of imports are input goods. That means that our manufacturing jobs are counting on cheap goods.

You start ****ing with the economy and you're not gonna like the outcome.

I thought you were libertarian?

But that was to be expected. Everyone knew, or should have known, that this type of opposition would go hand in hand with a Trump presidency. You can not run the type of campaign that he ran, say and do the things that he did, and then expect to be accepted like any other president.
