The Trump Presidency : Year II


Obama 2 years ago:

Obama referenced Trump's promise to bring back jobs to the United States when talking about manufacturing.

“Well, how exactly are you going to do that? What exactly are you going to do? There’s no answer to it,"

"He just says, 'Well, I’m going to negotiate a better deal.' Well, what, how exactly are you going to negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually the answer is, he doesn’t have an answer.”

The "magic wand" is tax cuts and deregulation: tax cuts on individuals put more money in their pockets to be spent; tax cuts and deregulation on businesses allow them to hire more people, produce more goods, and reduce prices.

He kind of put Rush on the spot when he thanked him for the endorsement. As far as I know Rush doesn't do formal endorsements.

Now Rush can talk about how he does not do endorsements, so he is not bound to "campaign fairness" for the Democrats, all the while using the call in by Trump as the point of the matter.

Wow! When I was stationed in Tehran 1969-1971, the exchange rate was 75 Rials to the Dollar. Of course, the Shah was still in power there at that time, and we had friendly relations with the country.

Yeah, I was there from mid '65 to mid '66, out along the Iraqi border with the 6th Iranian Inf. Division. That was about the exchange rate then.

Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings are expected next month, with a final vote in October at the latest, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said Wednesday.

Grassley’s forecast that hearings on President Donald Trump’s nominee will slip until next month gives the GOP a narrow window in which to meet their goal of getting Kavanaugh confirmed and seated on the high court by the time its term starts in early October.

Gonna need a waaaaaambulance.

Freedom of the Press- the most important thing EVAR!

Freedom of Speech for individual Americans- never heard of it.

And then there's this. They pissed off Alan Dershowitz and he broke out the whole can of whoopass, and he shut these biased bitches down. Smarmy fucking slunts.

LMAO. Conveniently "at a press pause". Alan handed them their ASSES. I've been liking Mr. Dershowitz more and more lately. He collaborates with Dennis Prager quite a bit...class act!

President Donald Trump surprised radio host Rush Limbaugh by calling in to congratulate him on his 30 year anniversary in broadcasting.

Alan Dershowitz is a liberal Democrat, but he is also a very principled lawyer who strictly follows the law. I don't always agree with his stance, but I like his action.

Just went back and watched again as Alan Dershowitz mops the floor with these commie slunts.

VERY satisfying, and yeah, lady, I guess you do want to "press pause". Most people having their asses handed to them want to "press pause".

I was unable to tell whether she actually thought she was in control of the discussion or just acting like she thought she would be able to gloss over having her head-up-her-ass handed back to her without any viewer noticing.

Also, zero tariffs, both ways, if he can get that negotiated, as he wants to do.

Trump hits 50 per cent approval in national poll as he surges past Obama's 2010 numbers and earns MORE support than he won in 2016 election

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/new...ers-8-years-ago.html

Donald Trump is at 50 per cent approval in the latest Rasmussen tracking poll
He only earned 46.1 per cent in his 2016 election victory over Hillary Clinton
Barack Obama was stalled at 45 per cent at this point in his first term

They must let him in just to prove how much of an asshole the guy is...

You could hear her voice crack a bit, or it seems so, but she held her own, I don't know how she does it day to day, Trump should cut these down to two or three or even one a week, screw Acosta, just issue press statements on the internet, let the networks pick up a written statement and write whatever they want.

Other than entertainment value I don't see the point in letting a good person get beat on daily.
