This is very bad if true...Trump is a racist
My understanding about that incident is that it was to be aired in 2012, Trump coming off his highly successful Apprentice show accused Obama of being inept and used his signature quote 'You're fired'.
Nothing to see here. Move on.

So you can admit the bold and still blame Obama?

You are a crazy Trump cultist
Bush started Iraq, Obama started Syrian uprising among other Muslim Brotherhood hostile actions in the Middle East and North Africa theatres of action.

Specifically ISIS that Trump bombed the shiet out of them while Obama played the fiddle like Nero while Rome burnt.

Who is ignorant between you and I?

You are claiming that Obama caused the instability in the middle east. This is in direct contradiction of the fact that both Bush Snr and Bush Jnr started unnecessary wars in the middle east.

You are not well. You live in a delusion
l

Im amused at how you want Obama to be a saint and everyone else a villain.
The rise of ISIS is Obama failing foreign policy solely.
Bush started the war, insurgents in Iraq had largely been contained by mid Obama first term. Instead of consolidation Obama starts the war in Syria, the IS gains traction in Syria, moves to Iraq that Obama had removed Coalition troops and captures vast territory.

Trump is an idiot when it comes to global politics. Please answer my question- how it is a priority for an American president to reduce flight times from Isreal to Dubai?


Now, you are even adding more madness to the mix; how is Obama responsible for the instability in the middle east when Bush Sr and Bush Jnr went to cause unnecessary wars there?
The international deal brokered by Trump is of benefit to the world.
Obama benefitted the world by making Middle East unstable.

What does America have to do with reducing the flight time between isreal/dubai?

Do you see your madness? Is that what you should be hailing an American president for?
Trump is bringing a semblance of peace that no other President has ever in recent times. Obama brought an unneeded war to Middle East, with ISIS committing genocide to the Yazidi and other sects not aligned to their extreme interpretation of religious dogmas.

Now you have shifted positions after learning that Obama caused this whole mess. He ahould be stripped of his Nobel prize

And to reduce travel time from Israel/Dubai to 3 hours only. That benefits Trump not business between the two countries.

The two countries were at peace during Obama's administration.

Celebrating a business deal that adds nothing to America is the height of stupidity for an American president.

Both UAE and Isreal have been making deals since Obama's administration.
They forged a closer deal because Obama/Valerie Jarrett wanted to sign a deal with Iran.

UAE would rather deal with Israel than Iran.

This story has strong legs. 45 is asking that a Fox reporter be sacked and retired military brass is weighing in.

Retired lieutenant general: Military members are 'furious' with Trump over alleged comments on fallen soldiers
BY BROOKE SEIPEL - 09/04/20 06:55 PM EDT

Retired Lt. General Mark Hertling said in a CNN interview that he has spoken with active military members as well as veterans who are "furious" after it was reported that President Trump called fallen soldiers "losers" and "suckers."

"It's tough to speak out right now if you're an active-duty serving general officer," Hertling told CNN's Don Lemon while discussing the reaction to Trump's alleged comments. "By not saying anything, they're saying a lot."

His comment comes after The Atlantic reported that Trump canceled a trip to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018 because he was worried his hair would become disheveled by the rain, and openly asked senior staff why he should go to a cemetery that is filled with “losers.”

The Atlantic story also claims that Trump referred to Marines killed at the Belleau Wood during World War I as “suckers.”

Herling went on to say in the Thursday interview that the military officers he has spoken with are outraged over the report.

"The military, the veterans I've talked to tonight, they are furious about this and they can't understand why people are still supporting this individual who is doing these kinds of things," he said.

Trump has vehemently denied the claims from the report, which sparked an immediate backlash.

“It was a totally fake story, and that was confirmed by many people that were actually there,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Friday. “It was a terrible thing that somebody could say the kind of things — especially to me because I have done more for the military than almost anybody else.”

How much cash has Biden taken from BLM—as their rioters terrorize law abiding citizens?
After reaching the BLM homepage, which
features a “Defund The Police” petition , if
a user chooses to donate, they’re rerouted
to a site hosted by ActBlue and prompted
with the message: “We appreciate your
support of the movement and our ongoing
fight to end state-sanctioned violence,
liberate Black people, and end white
supremacy forever.
Defund the Police donations go to Joe
Biden campaign via ActBlue
The page notes: “By proceeding with this
transaction, you agree to ActBlue’s terms

“ActBlue Charities is a qualified 501(c)(3)

Biden for President, the campaign’s official
committee, is the main source of revenue
for the presidential efforts, surpassing all
other fundraising organizations by over
$100 million.
ActBlue contributions comprise 99.64
percent of all funds raised for the “Biden

773 times greater than the group with the
second-highest donation sum.

In other words Biden handlers know that liberals and leftists are beyond making their own decision.

Believe his lies that Trump is causing violence
Ignore his son's documented corruption
Ignore his groping and sniff sniff of young gals
Is not letting media question him
Hiding in a basement

Biden supporters cannot see the massive coordinated attacks against Trump by corrupt elite.

Biden supporters are being taken for fools, His handlers must be laughing behind the scenes at them.
