    lol i like how you sound super racist while trying to pretend to not be racist. tell us, why do you think black people are the only people who do drugs? i know plenty of black people who have never done drugs in their life. it's as if skin pigment has nothing to do with drug use.

    Sorry if you can't handle the truth, I expect you haven't been hearing much of it.

    President Trump has raised more than $42 million in the first quarter of 2017 for his 2020 re-election bid, outpacing his predecessor's donations by two and a half times.

    Trump raked in $42.6 million between the Republican National Party and two joint fundraising committees from Jan. 1 through March 31. Former President Barack Obama and his Democratic counterparts raised $15.8 million in the first quarter of his first term in 2009, according to new Federal Election Commission filings and party officials.

    The majority of donations were $200 or less and flowed in from email solicitations to support Trump's agenda.

    However, Trump and his fundraising groups received 250,000 contributions from new donors.

    Ha! i suspect your incontinence has skewed your perspective in this area of expertise, while ignoring the irony of your boy trump and his frequent backside pontification. It can only be described as wearing the blinders of an angry mule.

    Reversals in the past week

    1) Trump had said he would label China a currency manipulator on DAY ONE, this week he told WSJ that China wasn't a currency manipulator.

    2) Trump had said he did not believe the Import Export bank was necessary, this week he told WSJ "It's actually a very good thing"

    3) Trump had said that NATO was obsolete, this week he said NATO is no longer Obsolete.

    4) Last month after failing to repeal Obamacare he said he was moving on and tackling Tax Reform next. This week he said he was still going to have phenomenal Tax Reform, but that would actually follow going back and trying to do health care first.

    5) This week we bombed Syria for using chemical weapons after Trump had said many times over many years that the US should not bomb Syria, particularly just because they used chemical weapons.


    OK, those are the major ones I think. So, for those that supported Trump last week, what do you think about these reversals?

    Bombing Syria changed the narrative on the TV news from Russia conspiracy theories to cheerleading the warmongering. The narrative seems to be about him changing his positions.

    Not good. Wish we weren't in Syria in any way at all, but Trump inherited that situation.

    Is it bad for the man to change his mind when given reasoned arguments by experts in the field? And in some cases, things have changed. Like NATO partners are at least talking like they'll pony up their fair share (what they agreed to all along) of the cost.

    He's the greatest thing to happen to Hispanic American voters. They are into this shit. My 60 year old painter at work hasn't said one thing about politics to me in the last 10 years.

    He was apoplectic about this bomb and I asked him how many bombs the US dropped last year and he had no idea.

    He just said "Obama asked congress about it first"

    I lol'd

    Fake news.

    All his actions reflect promises he campaigned on.
