Rossikki:
Trump is a dangerous person. He has the US nuclear codes, and he's unstable, autocratic, vindictive and reckless. His presence in the White House should concern every single person on earth because of the enormous power his office wields.

where did you get all that from? Are you in the white house? Are you even in Yankee? Over a year of Trump presidency and he has done more than what your Ni.gga Area country has failed to do in 60 years. Is there Boko Haram in California? Is there Fulani fightings in Florida? Has Nevada assembly failed to pay light bill like that of Zamfara? Is Trump going to China for medical checkup for 50+ and then 40+ days?

Chai, una no go kill person for ds country!

US that has been practising true democracy for centuries?

Yet, they still hve their shortcomings; extra-judicial killing of minorities, racism etc

Their own fulani, na their police; killing unarmed niggas up n down.

Their own unpaid light bills, na their homeless; not enough welfare package for in a supposedly civilised society.

Bubu's medical tourism, na Trump's disrepect to all their allies(Australia, Germany, Mexico), renegading on international commitments.

Well, to all those Bubu haterz, blame game na international commodity


Excerpts;

The White House blamed the Obama administration Sunday for failing to tackle possible Russian collusion in the 2016 presidential election, sticking with a new strategy to fault President Trump's predecessor for an issue currently facing the president himself as part of a widening FBI probe .

Trump stopped their jihad and they are mad.

Even the useless mods here only push anti Trump threads in politics section while burying any anti Clinton threads in foreign section.

Trump is POTUS and nothing you third world idiots can do about that.

U know democracy, is in for a rough ride, when d world centre of communism, Russia, develops undying love for d leader, Trump, of d godfather of democracy, US.

Excerpts;

BERLIN — President Trump has alarmed citizens of the nation’ s closest allies and others worldwide , diminishing the standing of the United States in their eyes , according to a wide - ranging international study released Monday .
But in the survey of 37 countries , Russia is a bright spot for Trump. As beleaguered as the president is at home, a majority of Russians say they have confidence in him . And Russians’ attitudes toward the United States have improved since Trump took office .

Excerpts;
Paul Manafort, who was forced out as President Trump’s campaign chairman last summer after five months of infighting and criticism about his business dealings with pro-Russian interests, disclosed Tuesday that his consulting firm had received more than $17 million over two years from a Ukrainian political party with links to the Kremlin.
The filing serves as a retroactive admission that Mr. Manafort performed work in the United States on behalf of a foreign power — Ukraine’s Party of Regions — without disclosing it at the time, as required by law.

Can anything good come out of Trump?

Q . Crazy Mika” and “ Psycho Joe . ”
But the second tweet, landing about six minutes later , caused an immediate and sustained uproar , as it contained a deeply personal and vulgar attack on Mika Brzezinski .
“She was bleeding badly from a face-lift , ” the president tweeted Thursday morning , claiming that months earlier , Brzezinski and co - host Joe Scarborough tried to spend time with him at his private club in Florida . “ I said no !”
Those words amounted to perhaps the most caustic insult that Trump has publicly hurled at another American since taking office , going beyond his usual name - calling and flame- throwing. More than three dozen Republicans and Democrats in Congress issued tweets of their own expressing disgust, calling the remark “ unpresidential , ” “ vile , sexist and unbecoming of an American leader , ” “ divisive , ” “ unhinged and shameful ” and “ amazingly graceless. ” Even some of the president ’ s close allies warned that he needed to act like a president and stop getting into distracting fights .

Op, your post is nothing but a big lie. FBI chief was fired for partisanship and for refusing to inform the public that Trump was not under any investigation on Russia issues, after he (ie) Comey himself had made that clear to Trump 3 times as well to the senior members of Congress.

He continue to allow the mainstream media like NewYork Times, CNN, MSNBC etc to continue to carry fake news on Russia Investigation after informing the President and senior congress members that there was no investigation, thereby undermining the ability of the President to go about his lawful duties.

If you need reliable information about what is going on in the US, you need to balance your news sources with news platforms like Fox news, Breitbart News, Axios and National Review.

CNN and others mentioned alongside with it are no longer as reliable
as they used to be.

This post on Trump is misleading.

Times, CNN, MSNBC etc have been caught numerous times this year spreading fake news about Trump, thereby attempting to undermine his presidedency.

These modern day fake news platforms have been attacking Trump right from the word go even after the campaign is over.

They thought Trump will watch them destroy him like they did to Bush who never fought back no matter what thy do or say to him or about him.

Trump is a smart guy who realise very early on that if he will not defend himself, these guys will bring him down, hence the tweets and the backlash from him.

Before you condemn Trump, did you know or heard what those journalists he insulted actually said about him.

In some climes like Nigeria our country, those journalists would have been arrested by now.

People seem to forget quickly, how Trump was the main originator of the birther's claim against Obama at the early stage of Obama's presidency in 2008. The amount of fake news Trump made also included information that Obama never went to any Ivy league college.

By the way, Trump is actually a fake new propaganist!!!

Imagine PMB, deciding to rule like Mugabe?! Or Putin trying to take over former cold war countries? Or China deciding to take over trade partners by force?!

The US has always been the factor holding all these vagabonds-in-power in check. It throws its weight around to check d excesses of dictators.

Assad would have chemical bombed his subjects to oblivion, given half d chance. Russia' s total takeover over of Ukraine would have been old news!

The Arab spring would have ended in a massacre of civilians!?!

Infact, d rest of d world might have still been under German rule, if America hadnt got involved in d 2nd world war!?

China would have forcibly taken over Australia n all other smaller nations in its vicinity!?

American politics, is world politics!? Its my biz! Cos, without their threats n presence, the IB himself would have sat tight!

It is obvious you have swallowed the lies (fake news) of american main steam media (msm) like CNN, TIMES, NSNBC etc about President Trump. The guy is doing a lot to better the lot of his people. The msm don't report that.

Excerpts;

The Europeans have stopped trying to paper over their differences with President Trump and the United States.
Traditionally respectful of American leadership and mindful of the country’s crucial role in European defense and global trade, European leaders normally repress or soften their criticism of United States presidents. Europeans were generally not happy with President Barack Obama’s reluctance to involve the country in Libya and Syria, for example, or his tardiness to engage in what clearly became an international confrontation with Russia in Ukraine, but their criticism was quiet.
But here at the Group of 20 summit meeting of the world’s industrialized nations, public splits with Mr. Trump were the order of the day. Those rifts have been reflected in European domestic politics, too, from Britain and France to Germany, where Chancellor Angela Merkel has said that Europe must “take our fate into our own hands” and stop “glossing over” clear differences.

Picture of a thousand words ....

President Trump’ s foreign policy , such as it is, rests on a massive and apparently indestructible contradiction . Trump wants the United States to remain the “essential” nation, the best embodiment of Western ideals of freedom and democracy , while at the same time deliberately alienating many of our traditional allies, whose support the United States desperately needs. American leadership becomes difficult , if not impossible .
It is hard to straddle this contradiction , because it reflects a basic misunderstanding of the American “ greatness ” that Trump so avidly pursues. To Trump, this greatness is mainly measured in economic terms: the number of added jobs; the trajectory of wages ; the rate of economic growth. It is a nostalgic and unrealistic yearning for the economic dominance the United States enjoyed in the 1950 s and 1960 s .
The truth is that American greatness then and later was never about dollars and cents alone . Prosperity was a means to an end, not an end in itself . The greater objective was to promote democracy and mixed economies, with power divided between the market and government . To advance this vision , the United States advocated open trade and provided a military umbrella. The latter created a geopolitical shield against instability.
Trump sees the costs of these programs as showing that past U. S. leaders were willing to sacrifice the interests of ordinary Americans to meaningless global cooperation . U. S . officials negotiated horrible trade deals ; American workers lost their jobs to imports ; our putative allies didn ’ t pick up their fair share of military spending . These “ allies” were rivals , not partners .
Although there was some truth to these complaints , they were (and are ) fundamentally misleading . The notion that Americans simply abandoned their own interests for Japan’ s, Germany ’ s or South Korea ’ s — to select a few obvious countries — is counterfactual . Americans thought , correctly , that their embrace of a generous approach to the world exemplified “enlightened self -interest. ” Our economic and political interests were served by a prosperous and increasingly democratic global system .
As “ grand strategy , ” the post - World War II American conception of the world order largely succeeded . The global economy grew richer . A wealthier Europe established stable democracies . The Soviet Union collapsed . America benefited from all of this . There was no World War III . The memory of World War II , coming so soon after World War I , discredited the U. S . isolationism of the interwar period . This backlash was the incubator of postwar U. S . foreign policy .
Now there’ s a new era . What role can the United States play ? Often , Trump seems of two minds . Last week in Europe , he warned of the dangers of a nuclear- armed North Korea and pledged to remain faithful to America ’ s ideals of freedom and liberty . But as Trump has surely discovered, running an outward -looking , internationalist foreign policy is hard when your domestic policy is nationalist and inward -looking . Abroad, the balancing act has backfired .
A recent Pew Research Center poll of 40 , 448 respondents in 37 countries
finds a big drop in favorable views of the United States . At the end of Barack Obama ’ s presidency , 64 percent of foreign respondents viewed the United States favorably ; now that ’ s 49 percent . Respondents were asked whether they had “confidence ” that the U. S . president would “ do the right thing ” in world affairs. In Germany , only 11 percent thought Trump would ; Obama ’ s rating had been 86 percent . In Mexico , 5 percent backed Trump, down from Obama ’ s 49 percent . Only in Russia and Israel did Trump outscore Obama .
As a result, it’ s harder for Trump to lead internationally. Foreign leaders can more easily oppose him without suffering adverse domestic political consequences . He has made it even harder by antagonizing other countries by withdrawing from the Paris agreement on climate change . There was no need ; all the pact ’ s goals are voluntary .
Of course , if your policies aim mainly to increase exports and jobs, none of this matters. But here , too , Trump’ s approach may fail . He quit the Trans- Pacific Partnership — a trade agreement with 11 other Pacific Rim nations ; many economists consider this a blunder , because Asian economies are among the fastest -growing. And last week , Europe and Japan announced they ’ re negotiating a trade agreement that covers 40 percent of world trade and excludes the United States . Being outside these agreements would weaken U. S . exports . Further, the European Union warns it might retaliate against the United States if Trump restricts Europe ’ s steel exports .
What we ’ re witnessing is extraordinary : a voluntary surrender of power and influence . Trump may believe that trade and environmental issues can be kept separate from geopolitical matters, such as North Korea’ s nuclear program . On the contrary, history suggests that trade and geopolitics go hand in hand. To deal with North Korea , Trump needs allies to make economic sanctions tougher or to support military action . He has precious few because he has been so careless in abdicating responsibility for the global trading system .

Trump is finally getting d memo, Obamacare has become a juggernaut!?

Large majorities like nearly all of the law ’ s major provisions, and now they prefer the ACA over any current alternative . The November 2016 Kaiser survey numbers on this were stunning. For instance , fully 90 percent of Democrats and 82 percent of Republicans supported allowing young adults to stay on their parents ’ insurance until age 26 ; 89 percent of Democrats and 77 percent of Republicans approved the elimination of out - of- pocket expenses for many preventive services; 91 percent and 67 percent wanted subsidies for low - and middle - income Americans to purchase insurance ; 90 percent of Democrats and 67 percent of Republicans support the Medicaid expansion ; 75 percent and 63 percent wanted to prohibit insurance companies from denying coverage because of one ’ s medical history ; and 82 percent of Democrats and 63 percent of Republicans support increasing the Medicare payroll tax on earnings for upper - income Americans.
This consensus had two important exceptions: Republicans and independents opposed both the individual mandate that everyone have health insurance , and also the business mandate that employers with 50 or more employees offer insurance .
President Trump and the Republicans apparently thought that the public ’ s opposition to these mandates was enough to do in Obamacare . They have found that they were wrong .

If not for Republicans promise to repeal the failed obamacare i would prefer obamacare to continue, by the time they cant afford it and all insurance companies DON run commot you will get insurance from heaven at cheap price. it is insane to peg insurance price on people with pre-existing conditions. For your information, I work as an insurance expert and you should know i have sound knowledge of issues around health insurance.
The only option for obamacare to survive is for the lawmakers resolve to accept to buy off insurance companies loss and you know republicans are very reluctant to public debt increasing, they are conservatives for a reason. obamacare is good but is it sustainable? will it result in government savings or deficits.
The Alternatives right now proposed by republicans will result in savings and not deficit for the government in nearest future. both sides need to sit down and design what will work create a balance.

1st commonsense dissenting voice!?

Individual mandate is supposed to tackle d pre-existing condition pple. Thats why obamacare made it compulsory to either register or pay an exemption tax, no matter how healthy u are! Something trump n gop wants to remove.

That idea will only fail when d population of d sick is far more than d healthy pple registered, which is only possible in few of d involved states. Infact, from multiple sources, d insurance firms are supposed to start making profits by 2018!

Those state gov holding out, shouldnt! Instead, they should create a marketplace n allow more pple to register, cos d more healthy pple register, d more profitable it'll be for d insurance firms.


I've been following this since d very beginning! I no be american o, just a bored busy body!

Right from when d democrats used all their political capital to get it passed into law(d lost their majority in d house because of that), and hopefully, up to d point Trump n his crazy party 'll be totally disgraced as having failed to repeal it, inspite of all their chest beating, house n senate majority n a republican president to boot!

Trump has come so that America can be humbled – Obasanjo

Americans are humans too like Africans in choosing Donald Trump as president, former Nigerian president, Olusegun Obasanjo said in a rare reflection that appeared to have mocked the US election last November.
‘‘The fact that America can produce a Trump in this day and age, it means Americans are as human as we are,’‘ he was quoted to have said.
The octogenarian who ruled Nigeria in 1976-79– first as a military ruler and then a civilian leader in 1999-2007 said he was happy about the turnout of events in the U.S.
‘‘I am not justifying what African leaders are doing. If our leaders are doing wrong, we should say that they are doing wrong. Trump has come so that America can be humbled, and we can also learn that lesson,’‘ he added.
Obasanjo’s comment was made during an event earlier this week at the French Embassy in Pretoria, the News24 portal reports.
The event in question was the launch of the French version of a book titled ‘Making Africa Work.’ The book described as ‘‘A trenchant analysis of the continent economic faultlines and a handbook of best practices to redress them,’‘ was authored by Greg Mills, Jeffrey Herbst, Olusegun Obasanjo and Dickie Davis.
According to him, even though Africa still needed foreign direct investment, it was time for the continent to show the rest of the world that it can take charge of its own future. ‘‘Nobody can do it for us, and it is all of us, and if we do it, we will get it right,’‘ he added.
