Trump's rough week

Trump is nuts. In a pair of Tweets sent Saturday afternoon, Trump said that past agreements with North Korea have all been violated.

Then he added cryptically that "only one thing will work."

"Presidents and their administrations have been talking to North Korea for 25 years, agreements made and massive amounts of money paid ... hasn't worked, agreements violated before the ink was dry, makings fools of U.S. negotiators," Trump tweeted. "Sorry, but only one thing will work!"

The guy thinks this is one big reality show and he is the star.

I seriously wonder what Republicans lawmakers are thinking about all this. Trump really is acting like he is deranged. We have no idea what they are thinking because they are strangely silent.

Ominously silent.

 

To be opposed to Trump is like to love Muslims and immigrants. Don't know why you have this position.

 

Are you an adult?

 

She is an adult and maybe fairly smart. Ignorance is her problem..

 

Ken Starr says he thinks there will indictments .. I hope its soon before Trump starts a new war.

 

You really don't have a clue! Like most of your ilk, you believe the lies and the crap that Washington shovels down your throat.

There is a new breed of voter and politician out there - the "anti-Washington"

Trump was elected as President because he is the original anti-Washington and people just knew that the man would stay true to his agenda - unlike all of the other politicians in DC. Trumps base will never desert Trump because there is no other candidate as effective and as true to his constituency as Trump is.

Luther Strange proved to be a Washington man while Moores lifetime record was anti-Washington.

If you open your mind and take a hard look, you'll see that it ain't Republican vs Democrat (they're the dying breed)- it's Washington vs anti-Washington

 

Moore will be a disaster if he gets to Washington. Nobody will work with him.. Trump may be gone soon.

 

Wishing and hoping won't make it true - Trumps base is growing and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

All that you have to do is look at the DNC as it is right now with all of the xenophobia flowing out of it like an exploding grenade.
And then there's the RNC whose new symbol is a shovel full of crap.

Moore will be the forerunner of the new breed of anti-Washington and Trump will be the President until 2024 and will hold a special place in the peoples hearts.

You can always move to Canada.

 

Why would I go to Canada?

Trump is senile.. and his approval rating is at an all time low. Moore may be a breed of something. God knows what.

 

Why would I go to Canada? Because you are obviously a canuck!

 

Nope. I'm from Alabama........ Trump is low class and poorly educated. He's not governing.. He's grandstanding. He thinks he's a celebrity television star.

 

She just follows the fake news.

 

What a moronic post.

Why didn't you correct the errors of my ways? What did I get wrong? Was there something I said that was wrong?

Nothing.

Except a personal attack, the favorite and literally the only tactic used by Trump fans. They are unable to defend their hero, so they attack the writer.

 

He must have voted for Trump. That explains everything.

 

Every week is a "Rough Week" for Trump.

The UNPREPARED IMBECILE is in way over his head.

 

Indictments? There has to be impeachment or enacting the 25th Amendment. This guy is dangerous.

I am sure Republicans in Congress are eyeing Trump very closely. They aren't saying much, but that can be expected. They are responsible for the moron.

 

You have a point.

 

Tell me, what did I get wrong? You didn't explain that part. What did I say that was "lies and crap?"

ilk? Spoken like a true Trump follower.

I know that. A small minority of Americans voted for Trump because they wanted chaos in Washington. He was elected because 90 million voters stayed home on Election Day combined with the fact that the Democratic Party made the huge mistake of nominating Clinton.

Trump's base has gotten what they wanted. Complete chaos in Washington and in incompetent novice for President. Congratulations. You sound proud of yourself.

You are dead wrong! After the calamity known as the Trump Presidency, that mistake will never be made again. The major parties will be more responsible who they nominate and the voters are far wiser. 90 million Americans found out what can happen when they fail to vote.

Either through impeachment or Section Four of the 25th Amendment there is every likelihood Trump will not complete his term.

 

I really hate this post and think it is an unfortunate microcosm for the partisan and anti-intellectual refusals to engage in meaningful dialogue.

Regardless of what side of an issue a person is on, they should strive for intelligent and productive discourse. Some of the people I disagree with most vehemently, I respect the most because they bring logic and reason to the conversation and have the maturity to respectfully listen to others and to entertain their thoughts and ideas. That kind of dialogue ultimately makes for a better forum and more nuanced and meaningful political thought.

I gave you the respect of carefully reading your post and thoughtfully responding to it. I replied point by point explaining why I disagreed.

Your "rebuttal" was nothing more than the petulant strategy of "label and dismiss." You distill my entire argument - completely ignoring it - into "desperate pleas" and then dismiss those pleas.

It gets worst. Not content with your dismissive reply, you throw in an ad hominem appeal about me "making excuses" for Trump. You do not need to bring in my character or speculate on my intentions or beliefs to address my points. And you shouldn't. This is debate 101. You are committing a logical fallacy and I ask you to stop.

Finally, you tie the post together with a series of conclusory, unreasoned statements. That adds nothing.

I think, regardless of political affiliation everyone should abide by a simple rule: if you have nothing productive to say, don't say it all.

In the future, I hope you put forth more effort to engage with posters you disagree with. It is an incredible sign of weakness, cowardice, and vulnerable argumentative points to engage in the above quoted tactics.

Pot calling kettle black...at least pretend to make an effort to practice what you preach and not be a hypocrite.

 

I don't understand why you are so opposed to Trump, that's all.

You must not understand what a personal attack is.

 

"I think Secretary Tillerson, Secretary Mattis, and Chief of Staff Kelly are those people that help separate our country from chaos, and I support them very much," the Republican chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee, Sen. Bob Corker, told reporters Wednesday on Capitol Hill.

Here are some of Trump's latest tweets. They concern Corker.

"Senator Bob Corker 'begged' me to endorse him for re-election in Tennessee. I said 'NO' and he dropped out (said he could not win without..."

"..my endorsement). He also wanted to be Secretary of State, I said "NO THANKS." He is also largely responsible for the horrendous Iran Deal!"

"...Hence, I would fully expect Corker to be a negative voice and stand in the way of our great agenda. Didn't have the guts to run!"

"Bob Corker gave us the Iran Deal, & that's about it. We need HealthCare, we need Tax Cuts/Reform, we need people that can get the job done!"



This is it getting funny. It really is. Trump is a joke.

Corker's reaction? "It's a shame the White House has become an adult day care center. Someone obviously missed their shift this morning."

I want to make this perfectly clear. This is a Senator from Trump's own party.

Corker’s chief of staff, Todd Womack, said Sunday that Trump asked Corker to run for reelection, even offering his endorsement to the senator.

 

Aw, quit your whining and deal with the issues. Also, I don't need a lecture on proper discourse. I need someone who is criticizing me to actually deal with what I said.

You personally attacked me. I attacked your post, not you.

 

In addition to his feud with Corker (see post # 121) Trump continues to undermine his own secretary of state. He has dispatched his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to the Middle East several times to deal with the problems there despite Kushner's complete ignorance of Middle East complexities. Recently he tweeted, "I told Rex Tillerson, our wonderful Secretary of State, that he is wasting his time trying to negotiate with Little Rocket Man. Save your energy Rex, we'll do what has to be done!"

Tillerson's days are numbered. Even Trump must know that his actions and statements have made Tillerson irrelevant. Foreign diplomats don't believe a word he says because it is obvious that he doesn't speak for the President. Haley at the U.N. is being controlled by Trump, not the state department.

Trump has managed to sabotage his own foreign policy as is being conducted by Tillerson, Mattis, and his National Security Council. For example, all three support the JCPOA, or Iranian nuclear deal.

CNN said, "If Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is unhappy with the way that President Donald Trump is conducting his White House, he should resign, and he should do so soon and in a very public way.

"Over the past few weeks there has been growing evidence that Tillerson disapproves of Trump's performance in office. The secretary, who arrived at Foggy Bottom without any government experience or a close connection to Trump, has been forced to sit on his hands as the President has marginalized him, criticized him and moved in a different direction on key issues such as North Korea."

There is very little doubt that Tillerson really did call Trump a "moron." NBC stands by its story.

CNN added, "Tillerson's resignation could finally motivate congressional Republicans to be more forceful in pushing back through legislation, as they did with the sanctions bill that tied the hands of Trump, through oversight and investigation or possibly challenging the President's competence through the 25th Amendment should the situation reach that point."

 

Aaah! I missed it - you're a teacher.

Meanwhile, all of you moonbats think that Trumps days are limited - to which I strongly suggest you get a grip on reality.
What does the Democrat Party offer the working class American and small business owner - Please name me something they've done in the past several years that help the working man get ahead.
What does the Republican Party offer the working class American and small business owner - Please name me something they've done in the past several years that help the working man get ahead.

Favoring Transgenders, homosexuals, teachers unions, hollywood elites and sports snowflakes will not pay the rent or put food on the table
Favoring illegal aliens and global corporations and high taxes will not pay the rent or put food on the table.

Via his America first policies, Trump is helping to pay the rent and put food on the table - all of the name calling and one-upsmanship from both sides of the aisle will not hide this fact.

 

Of course Moore will be more friendly to Trumps agenda than Strange would have been.

Still hurting from Hillary's defeat are ya?
