The clownish Trump is failing already and that's why his fake mane is falling off already. Americans are loaded for bear on him. One thing a Third World despotic loving guy like you don't realize is that Americans don't suffer no fools. Tell your clownish Trump to release his taxes as he promised to do. He wouldn't because he's a tax cheat. Do you know what will happen if I or other Americans don't pay our taxes ?. Wouldn't even want to think of it. Go ask Wesley Snipe or Late Billionaire Leona Helmsley . As famous and rich as they were, they went to jail for not paying their fair taxes. Wouldn't expect you to know that since you are a rookie in American politics.
Well, If Trump violated any tax laws he would have been arrested and prosecuted a long time ago like the folks u mentioned, so why haven't they arrested him? grin

Trump will fail because Nixon tried it during the Watergate scandal and he failed miserably. The Fourth Estate is a powerful institution in America because of the way America was set up. I am not even worried about his rabid right wing supporters. This is the beginning of the end for Trump lunacy. Running America is different from running his businesses. I have never seen the kind of opposition against Trump in my lifetime and hopefully, the pressure will keep mounting.
@Bolded, very familiar statements especially before the election, what happened? Trump will succeed, It is folks like you that want him to fail.

The topic was evidently terrorism. He enumerated countries and cities that have been hit by Islamic terrorism, just that Sweden wasn't one of them.

"We gotta keep our country safe. You look at what's happening. We gotta keep our country safe. You look at what's happening in Germany, you look at what's happening last night in Sweden. Sweden! Who would believe this? Sweden! They took in large numbers, they have problems like they never thought possible. You look at what's happening in Brussels. You look at what's happening all over the world. Take a look at Niece."

Germany: latest attack
Sweden: ?
Brussels: airport attack
Niece: truck attack

Very simple! Stop acting so stewpid.
Like I said, he was making reference to immigrants @Bolded

Rand Paul on McCain’s Criticisms Of Trump: ‘We’re Very Lucky John McCain Is Not in Charge’
Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) addressed Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) criticism of the Trump administration.

Partial transcript as follows:

KARL: And I think it’s fair to say that you are second to none in the Senate when it comes to fighting for civil liberties. So let me ask you about specifically what he’s saying about the press. He is saying now that the news media is the enemy of the American people. Do you agree with that?

PAUL: It’s not something that I would say. I would say that there is bias. And I think it’s fair to point out that there is bias in the media on both sides, both right and left. And that it’s very hard to find objective news because we have gotten, particularly as you watch cable news, it’s so dominated by opinion. And we are more polarized. And some of that comes from the people and some of that comes from the media. But I would say that I don’t see in his criticism, somehow, people think that the separation of powers means that the president can’t criticize the judiciary. No, it has nothing to do with that. That’s more sort of political sensibilities but has nothing to do with the Constitution or separation of powers. We don’t like it when they see it sort of treads on things. But the separation of powers is about legislative powers. It isn’t about discussion or words. So I would separate, once again, words from actual real legislative action. If someone tries to put limits on the press, I’ll be the first one standing up for the right of press, left and right, to continue saying and being part of the discussion and forwarding the discussion.

KARL: What would you make of McCain’s statement that we’re creeping towards a situation where people are potentially supportive of dictatorship in this country? Is that over the top or is there a concern?

PAUL: I think Senator McCain’s perspective is colored by his disagreements with President Trump on foreign policy. If I were to look at foreign policy, I would say John McCain has been wrong on just about everything over the last four decades. He advocated for the Iraq War, which I think destabilized the Middle East. If you look at the map, there’s probably at least six different countries where John McCain has advocated for having U.S. boots on the ground. John McCain’s complaint is we’re either not at war somewhere, or if we’re at war, we leave too soon. So we’re not there soon enough, and he wants us to stay forever wherever we send troops. So that’s a foreign policy that is at odds with President Trump, and also the idea of engagement. The idea of foreign policy realism, I think, fits more neatly with President Trump. And with John McCain, the neoconservative label of let’s make the world safe for democracy and we’re going to topple every regime hasn’t worked. I mean, our intervention to destabilize the Assad regime has really made the chaos worse in Syria. And if you were to get rid of Assad today, I would actually worry about the 2 million Christians that are protected by Assad. So I think it’s more a foreign policy debate. And Trump and McCain are on opposite sides of that debate. And I tend to sympathize more with the president that we need to change. We don’t need to continue to have regime change throughout the world, nation-building. It’s expensive. And we don’t have enough money to rebuild our own country if we’re rebuilding everyone else’s countries.

KARL: But just to clarify, what McCain said specifically is dictators get started by limiting freedom of the press. I imagine you agree with that.

PAUL: Well, the thing is, is I don’t agree with his analysis and applying that to the president. I haven’t seen any legislation coming forward that wants to limit the press. I see President Trump expressing his opinion, rather forceful in his own — you know, his own distinct way. But I see no evidence that anybody is putting forward any kind of legislation to limit the press. So I think people — you know, this is colored by John McCain’s disagreement with President Trump. It all is. Everything that he says about the president is colored by his own personal dispute he has got running with President Trump. And it should be taken with a grain of salt because John McCain is the guy that has advocated for war everywhere. He would bankrupt the nation. And actually we’re very lucky John McCain is not in charge because I think we would be in perpetual war.

The right wing blogs you quote is seriously damaging your brain. Who told you blacks in America are in bad shape ?. Those blacks you are castigating are the richest black group in the world. Why should CBC meets with a president that's Gavin's a chief strategist and policy adviser and Attorney General who are well known racists. The hell with Der Fuhrer and his minions. CBC don't need to meet with a bigoted president who doesn't care about minorities in his own country. You wouldn't know that since you are a product of a despotic government .
@The bolded, That, my friend, is your idealogical problem. Folks like you would continue to play victimhood while calling others ''racist''.
Foreign Affairs › Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by obixcel(m): 7:45pm On Feb 17, 2017
President Trump revealed in the Press Conference that he tried to meet with the CBC (Congressional Black Caucus) through Elijah Cummings, only for Schumer to ill-advise him not to ''meet with Trump''. The Black reporter who asked Trump if he was going to meet with the CBC was given the go ahead to set up the meeting since according to her she knew some of the CBC members.
My deduction from this is that it is unfortunate that while Trump is trying to be part of the solution in solving the critical issues facing the Blacks, some mischievous persons from the Democrats and even the CBC themselves don't want this to happen. The CBC are the worst racist scum who are only interested in the supposed ''Power'' they hold over the blacks, and are in bed with the Democrats. They are d very reason the Blacks are in a serious mess. However, I've never seen any American president either democrat or republican speak so passionately about the plight of the black people.. African Americans will regret this missed opportunity bcuz they have chosen to be in bed with democrats that've screwed them decades.

Trump Vows to Catch ‘Low Life Leakers’ in Washington D.C.

President Donald J. Trump is already tired of the leaks coming from his administration, and vows to catch those involved in the “criminal act.”
“The spotlight has finally been put on the low-life leakers! They will be caught!,” he wrote on Twitter on Thursday morning.

Trump reacted to ongoing news stories surrounding the resignation of National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, after intelligence sources leaked transcripts of his phone calls with Russian officials.

“Leaking, and even illegal classified leaking, has been a big problem in Washington for years,” Trump added. “Failing New York Times (and others) must apologize!”

On Wednesday, Trump described the leaks as a “criminal act” during a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“It’s a criminal act, and it’s been going on for a long time before me, but now it’s really going on,” he said.

*****Trump tried being a nice guy keeping some liberal scumbags to show he wanted to work together,, only thing,,, the liberal scum don't want to work together and now it bit him on the ass ,,,, fire them all! angry

So why are you citing Clinton's law as an example for racism then? Trump is not even trying to pass anything close to what Clinton did that i am aware of. Why are you wailing because he wants law and order? Do you prefer anarchy?

If you are not a criminal, why is this a problem?
Liberals' logic are easily debunked, I have said it here before that when they are confronted with facts, they start name-calling, identity politics, race card, etc. That has been their strategy.

National Security Advisor Michael Flynn has resigned, the White House announced in a statement late Monday
President Donald Trump has named Retired Army Lt. Gen. Joseph Keith Kellogg, Jr. as acting national security advisor

***This resignation is a slap to Trump's administration (Howbeit a minor bump on the road), but Liberals making a meal out of this like they just won a trophy is laughable in itself. I believe The administration will take the appropriate steps to rectifying this and finding a suitable replacement.

Maxine Waters: We Have to ‘Do the Investigation’ to Find Evidence to Impeach Trump
Sunday on MSNBC’s “AM Joy,” discussing her multiple calls to impeach President Donald Trump, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said, “I think that it’s there, we just have to dig deeper, do the investigation and find it.”

Partial transcript as follows:

REID: And you have gone all the way there, talking, using the I-word with Donald Trump about impeachment.

WATERS: Yes.

REID: Do you stand by that and what would he be impeached for in your view?

WATERS: Yes, I have led in talking about impeachment. And some people say, well, it’s too early for that. It’s never too early if you understand how dangerous this man really is. I do believe that there is a connection between the Ukraine and Donald Trump and of course Russia. I think that he colluded with Putin during the election and that hacking and everything that took place. I think that it’s there, we just have to dig deeper, do the investigation and find it.

***Could she be more ridiculous? Seriously? Mad Maxine Waters is starting from Impeachment and now searching for a reason. She needs to search for a brain. It's neck and neck now for "Most Confused In Congress" between her and Nancy P. BTW, someone tell Nancy that Bush ain't Prez no more grin grin grin

California Governor Jerry Brown Asks President Trump for Help
On Friday, California Governor Jerry Brown sought federal help from President Trump by asking the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to declare “a major disaster” in California in light of the damage done by recent storms.
The East Bay Times reports: “Brown formally requested the declaration for the series of storms striking the state between Jan. 3 and Jan. 12.” He noted that “heavy rains, winds and snow, particularly in Northern California, left eight people dead and knocked out power to an estimated 1 million Californian homes and businesses.”

Brown’s request comes as Gov. Brown has challenged the Trump administration on climate change, immigration, Obamacare, and other issues.

Other Democrat officials in California have been open about their refusal to comply with Trump administration orders regarding illegal immigration. San Francisco’s police chief, sheriff, and mayor all made clear they would not enforce Trump’s immigration order, long before the order was taken to court. The San Francisco Police Department went so far as to cut ties with an FBI counter-terrorism task force in order to prevent officers from being involved in action that targeted illegals.

And California’s highest law enforcement agent, Attorney General Xavier Becerra, has been very open about his determination to fight Trump’s policies as part of the larger effort to retain sanctuary policies that harbor illegal aliens in the state.

But Gov. Brown would like some federal funds to help out in the short term, so he is asking the Trump administration for help.

Notably, Gov. Brown also used his “State of the State” address earlier this year to welcome Trump’s commitment to infrastructure spending.

***One day, Brown is trashing Trump and the next day he is asking for help? Only in politics is such BS possible!!! grin grin

I'm not all for Keith Ellison, he's held some pretty radical views in the past, I wouldn't suggest he's anti-Semite but I do think he needs to clarify some of his previously acknowledged views. Other than that, I don't have a problem with him, he's a fine fair choice the party can live with.

Like I said, if only these revolts and anger enter the polls on elections but apparently American voters have shown they can be very stupid, dumb and highly misinformed. 2016 was the year for us to kick repugs out, but voters graced them with the presidency and Congress after eight years of watching them obstruct to progress. You may be seeing buyers remorse now, don't trust all that for Election Day.

Hopefully when the party gets back on it's feet, we can assembly an unbeatable coalition of voters in every state significant enough to change the political discussion even in the most red of the red states.
Wow, looks like u need to give yourself a pat on the back for being this "dumb, stupid and misinformed". Your party will soon become a third party- just one or two election cycle would do.

Van Jones: ‘Sometimes Liberals Are Too Knock-Kneed About Standing Up’ to Islamic Fundamentalism
On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Messy Truth with Van Jones,” host Van Jones argued that “sometimes liberals are too knock-kneed” about standing up to Islamic fundamentalism.

Jones said to his guest, HBO’s “Real Time” host Bill Maher, “[Y]ou and I actually agree a lot on the need to be tough on these fundamentalists. And I think that sometimes liberals are too knock-kneed about standing up. And at the same time, I think even somebody who is very concerned about the bad part of Islam has to be excited about the good part of Islam.”
The good part of Islam? grin

Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.
