    Perhaps cause Bannon is out, perhaps cause his poll numbers kept declining, but Trump is changing positions on many issues, and I like it. NATO, China, Syria, Russia/Putin all changing. Interesting to see, and regardless of my view of Trump, I am always glad to see our President make better decisions. Hopefully it continues.

    I never said either, but I think he was taking a bunch of advise from Bannon but he lost influence after so many decisions turned to shit. Personally, I really don't know at all if Trump has strong ties to Putin, or if some members of his administration do, or so mix, but I think there is enough fishy stuff that we need to get to the bottom of it.

    Trump's a false flag puppet.

    OTOH, women, gays still in the trump toilet. Just replaced gay Sec of Army with anti-gay activist, appointed another anti-gay activist to head civil rights division of HHS, signed bill passed 51-50 to take away women's health service.

    Me too. I have not seen a bad one. I do get a chuckle watching the pinko pundits scramble though, when he does this week what they wanted last week.

    Until America nominates an independent or libertarian, something has to give. It sucks, but it is what it is. We had 8 years of shit for some and blessings for others. Now those have switched

    I'd say almost every decision has been rotten, until this week.

    It's funny all around. Trump supporters, Abooooooout Face! March! Aboooooout Face! March!

    Luckily, Republican voters don't have any problem with such inconsistency:

    Let us not forget the segregationist Jefferson Beauregard Session III. Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III traveled to the US-Mexico border, where he referred to immigrants as "that filth". When conditions in detention centers became a public scandal, rules were put in place for such things as basic hygiene, suicide prevention, protection against sexual assault and other basic human decencies. But Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, like his boss, is busy overturning everything put in place by the Kenyan Muslim socialist usurper. After all, if immigrants are not humans but "that filth" they don't need basic human decency. Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III has prioritized deportation of parents of American children, hospital patients, battered women, and small businesspeople. A case now getting some publicity is the deportation of a woman who has lived here 15 years, never been charged with a crime, mother of four American citizens, the youngest of whom has a seizure disorder requiring special attention, a devout Catholic active in her church. She checked in with ICE as usual and two days later was dragged off the street. Trump loves babies, but her four children are going to be left without a mother as legal appeals were turned down and an appeal from the archdiocese ignored. Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III has already announced his intention to bring back the "war on drugs", locking up low level users. Three guesses what color they are likely to be. He also wants to bring felony charges against undocumented immigrants; currently, immigration law violations are civil, not criminal. He wants to imprison people for years before deporting them, by making it a crime to "harbor" or "transport" undocumented immigrants, even members of one's own family. Another policy of the Kenyan Muslim socialist usurper that was overturned to Make America Great is the restriction on use of private prisons. They are notoriously worse than even the regular prisons. But the private prison industry donated heavily to the Trump campaign, since nothing makes America Great Again like a massive explosion in prison population. Oh yes, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III is a major shareholder in the private prison industry, so the more ways he can find to lock people up in private prisons the richer he gets.

    Like his boss, for whom the presidency is just a way to get richer. The Secret Service is requited to stay in Trump hotels so he makes a profit off his family's protection. Every Republican gathering is required to serve Trump bottled water. State dinners are not held in the White House, they are held in Trump owned restaurants, at taxpayer expense, and he makes a profit. All his vacations at his hotels are profit making for Trump.

    Public office to enrich oneself sure Makes America Great, doesn't it?

    His unpredictability may lead us to a path of death or a great rebirth of Teddy Roosevelt.

    the couple trump voters i talk about politics with are embarrassed and angry. They loved his anti anti interventionist/anti globalist shtick. Now he is "just like all the others" and "the globalists must have got to him". haha.

    If we survive the nukes then he would run for a second term without opposition. Maybe Bernie may consider to be a candidate. He may look like this in 4 years. thCPBSBGZV.jpg Dick Beveta
