    Trump the Non-politician is not easily defined.But at least he and his
    surrogates dint pull the Crap David Axelrod did in 2008.Deciding
    all kinds of things OFF LIMITS for Obama.Like his ears,his middle name,
    what his Faith.Then onto use of the word " Liberal ".
    The crowning touch was the Manifest Direct LIE than Candidate Barack
    Obama was a MODERATE.Campaign Mngr. David Axelrod Pushed and
    Advertised Barack Obama as a Moderate.
    Biggest Political Lie in the History of Presidential Campaigns.

    Got a kick when he said he changed from 'dishonest media' to 'very dishonest media'.

    Quoted for truth!

    Way back after Barry won the first time, I'd made the remark that watch out, within 8 years, the GOP will run a similar Messiah type.

    Props to the GOP though. At least their members seem to have little problem pointing out fault with their guy.... As opposed to the Dems essentially fighting for the right to clean Obummer's fanny after a good deuce.

    The majority of Trumps fans are grounded and very rationale.
    Unlike Obama's.Do not ever confuse or conflate the two.
    As with most things involving people and politics there are exceptions.
    But the overall rule is that Trump fans are very Pro-America and Patriotic.
    Obama's are not.In fact,we are now witnessing the True Hard core Obama fans.
    The Radicals and Malcontents.The Lying Liars.The Socialists who are budding
    commies and the true Commies { The Communist Party USA } took credit
    for Obama's victory in 2012.

    You need to come down to earth yourself. This isn’t a “gotcha” game when you or the media can find fault with what Trump said or lied about. Because these “lies” or embellishments are as much for emphasis as anything else, and they surely are not dealing with major national issues or crises. Unlike how horribly that scared rabbit ran this nation for 8 years.

    The issue is this. Trump, with all his clumsy way, big ego, crude ways, and personal attacks on others --- he is still focused on the major issues of our time. This nation has spiraled down so badly the past 20 years or more and none of the politicians in D.C. on either side of the aisle have ever cared to do anything courageous about it, their own careers always was the priority. Trump is taking action and major aim on bringing jobs back to this nation, on scrapping seriously flawed trade agreements, on stopping the free flow of illegal alients into our southern border and all the troubles and expense that comes with them, on taking on the biggest concern of our times Islamic terrorism head on. He has national security as job one, that is why he is stopping unvetted middle easterners from flooding our shores. That is why he is going to increase domestic energy production including those pipelines. He is far more worried about national debt than he is about some pie in the sky (go fund me universities and science orgs) global warming sham. He is not interested in protecting minnows and squirrels habitat, he is far more interested in helping citizens get decent jobs to support their families and this nation. He also is not too keen on making every perversion this nation can classify as some protected matter we have to bow down to.

    So the left can continue to sayTrump lies and grabs crotches and pretend they care about the real needs of this country – but they are first class jackasses and liar and egotistical fools, imo, and have destroyed this nation long enough.

    I suppose it depends on what you expect MSM to actually report. Do you suppose that they are purposefully not reporting this? I know several outlets that are, but are likely not to be considered main stream enough.

    All I've heard is that the leaks are justified because of the exposure they create in the support of butt hurt democrats and their unwillingness to accept the results of an election.

    I don't want or like the Fact that President Trump feels the need or urge
    to somewhat entertain as he holds a Presser.This is why Mike Pence would
    have made a much better President.But Pence was a virtual unknown to most
    of the Country and lacked Trumps' name recognition and zingy personality.
    Or Ego on the fly.

    Nobody is waiting for a saint.

    Don't confuse that with holding our leaders to the truth.

    The truth of what is happening IS important.

    I think you're missing foolardi's POV. The posts I read, have an undertone of warning. Warning not to get too inflated over Trump, like the Left did w/ Barry.

    Trump made a fool of himself again! Crying baby and stating complete lies (or false information) which, when he was fact checked on the spot, he had to make excused for by blaming "someone gave me that information!" So ridiculous!

    He can only blame everyone else for his mistakes, and he still has to resort to attacking Obama and even Hillary for HIS own failure! What a jerk!

    This Leaks business { which is criminal as in Leaking classified info } is
    very serious.Unless one forgets what brought down Highly respected General
    Petraeus.There needs be an Investigation into Who leaked and Who knew.
    Did one of Obama's holdouts in Government leak as a favor to Obama.
    Or on authority of Retired Obama.
    Mark Levin may be correct this is too convenient to be by coincidence.
    That Obama surely must be behind it.And if so what else and who else
    did Obama Spy on.Knowing he could leak it and cause great harm in the event
    Trump did win.

    Speaking of which Trump intentionally used the word " tone " about half
    a dozen times in explaining this MSM.That it's their " tone ".
    Their hateful and constant Tone used about and towards him.
    Never Anything good or Honest.Just a constant and consistent Rank " tone "
    of dislike and remorse over his Presidency.

    Foolhardy or not, there is too much at stake for this nation right now to listen to what the MSM has to say and chooses not to say.

    I just explained to you what's at stake. Just because half the nation is greatly in favor of Trump's intended changes does not mean we have to adore the man. Cheap rebuttals don't fly.

    Yes,they did in the South and The Heartland and the Rust belt.
    Not in the hugely populated Urban centers like Los Angeles and New York city.
    Or Philly,Boston,Chicago and Cleveland.The wastelands of Democratic rule

    And we near the center of the shrubbery maze.

    The minds of sheeple.

    "Tone" is admittedly something perceived personally.

    When "Tone" can be crafted into something to be feared, or monitored, by a 3rd. Party, PsyOps work better.

    All he did was make a fool out of himself and by proxy, the United States. Anyone who thinks his antics are good for the nation are wrong. Sorry, the man is a mess.

    I'm not really against a lot of what you have said here. But I am not familiar with 'ACA'?
