    myself and dozens of other posters have repeatedly done so, lol.
    well, since we know the economy has been on the exact same upward trend since 2010, we know that nothing trump has done has had any effect.

    In the only places where you came close to refuting anything, I refuted your refutes.

    You have not. You are claiming above that economic policies of Obama and Trump have no difference with regard to the economy. That’s absurd. The economic policies of Trump are greatly superior to those of Obamanomics with regards to growth. You refuse to compare the differences. That’s telling.

    See, I knew you were a Trump fan.

    Yes, you and your Trump friends tried to change the subject to avoid the issues related to Trump.

    Who do you think you are kidding? You are obvious. The tactic is caused by the weakness of your position. You have not once addressed the posts that are directly related to the purpose of this thread as defined by the title.

    You and your friends are urged to keep it up. I love it when Trump's fans continue to prove my point.

    Jeffery Toobin of CNN fame said something very interesting recently.

    News commentators on CNN were discussing the many times Trump has lied or misled the American people. Toobin asked why should Trump change? He got elected acting the way he does.

    I paused the television and thought about that. Toobin was right.

    Trump tweeted six times before noon Monday -- following up on a weekend twitter tirade that sparked widespread criticism. In one of the Monday tweets, he once again attacked the "Fake News Media" he said was trying to blame him for Friday's mass shooting that left 50 people dead at two mosques in New Zealand. :roflol:o_O

    These are some of Trump's comments and tweets today. They seem to reflect a certain amount of paranoia.

    "The Fake News Media has NEVER been more Dishonest or Corrupt than it is right now," the president wrote on Twitter at 5:24 a.m. "There has never been a time like this in American History. Very exciting but also, very sad! Fake News is the absolute Enemy of the People and our Country itself!"

    "Fake news?" What organizations is he talking about? He offers no substantiation of his charges, just blanket, meaningless, indiscriminate accusations.

    "I was never a fan of John McCain and I never will be," Trump said, matter-of-factly, seven months after the passing of the longtime Senator and one-time prisoner of war. "I'm very unhappy that he didn't repeal and replace Obamacare as you know," Trump said. "He campaigned on repealing and replacing Obamacare for years, and then he got to a vote, and he said thumbs down. And our country would have saved a trillion dollars and we would have had great healthcare." For Trump that is a burning issue today.

    Trump took a break from Twitter on Tuesday to meet with Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro. "I’m very proud to hear the president use the term fake news," Trump said of Bolsonaro at one point.

    At the press conference with Bolsonaro, Trump also weighed in on what he sees as tech companies' bias against conservatives. "It seems to be if they are conservative, if they are Republicans, in a certain group, there is discrimination," Trump said. No one has any idea what he is talking about, particularly members of PF. Trump's fans have as much say as anyone else on PF.

    "We use the word collusion loosely all the time and I will tell you there is collusion with respect to [social media companies], because something has to be going on," Trump said. What is "something?" Something is synonymous with anything. Again, no one knows what he is talking about.

    "Look at what is happening with the networks, what is happening with different shows and it's hard to believe we win," he said. "But I tell you what it really shows, the people are smart. The people get it." What in the world is he talking about?

    Earlier Tuesday, Trump launched his most pointed vitriol yet on lawyer George Conway, the husband of his senior adviser, Kellyanne Conway. "A total loser!" he wrote on Twitter.

    “Have we ever seen this degree of brazen, pathological mendacity in American public life?” Conway said. “Whether or not impeachment is in order, a serious inquiry needs to be made about this man’s condition of mind.”

    “His condition is getting worse,” Conway said.

    WELL!

    Trump’s economy is his strength. 70% agree.

    You are confirming that CNN is indeed fake news and an enemy of the people.

    I do when you are transparent as you are on this thread. Surely, you don't think you are fooling anyone?

    The fact that Trump receives only 42% approval for a raging economy with full employment is not a credit to the President.

    Actually you don't. I was responding to something in your thread that had little or nothing to do with your thread.

    Trump's fans continue to avoid this issue.

    Trump recently declared a national emergency for the expressed purpose of going around Congress to get funding for his wall. Because Congress denied those funds twice and they have sole power of the purse, that is a direct attack on our Constitution.

    Trump's fans totally ignore that issue and, instead, insist that the President has the power to declare a national emergency. That is easy to say. No one is questioning that. Saying it is a ludicrous attempt to hide from the real issue.

    The fact remains, Trump Republicans in Congress voted to weaken the powers of Congress by granting the executive branch the power of the purse, proving once again that Trump Republicans are not conservatives.

    Liberals delight in changing the Constitution. Conservatives are strict Constitutionalists, and they accept what the Framers wrote without question.

    For that reason, Trump Republicans in Congress who voted to weaken the powers of Congress have remained totally silent about their vote. They are embarrassed to be supporting Trump on this issue.

    Trump's fans have to be disheartened by this. Lawmakers who support Trump are unable to say so. What could be more embarrassing of their undying loyalty to Trump?

    Unless, of course, they are anarchists. Unless one has been living on Mars for the past two years, one knows Trump is a buffoon and lately he has been acting much a like a paranoid schitzophrenic.

    But as Trump bumbles his way at the head of our government, anarchists have to be pleased. There is evidence of that in the postings on PF. Many are pleased with Trump's performance as evidenced by their unwillingness to recognize a Constitutional crisis when they see one.

    Sure he does. If he did he would have conceded the 2016 election before the actual vote.

    Trump is obsessed. For the fifth day in a row he is attacking a dead man, Senator John McCain. This what our draft-dodging President had to say about a war hero from the Vietnam era.

    Speaking to workers in Lima, Ohio, Trump could have talked about our tremendous economy and low unemployment. Instead he went into a tirade about McCain. "John McCain received the fake and phony dossier. You hear about the dossier? It was paid for by Crooked Hillary Clinton. And John McCain got it. And what did he do? He didn’t call me. He turned it over to the FBI hoping to put me in jeopardy."

    In other words, in Trump’s view, a senator presented with serious and terrifying allegations about the president-elect shouldn’t turn those over to the appropriate authorities. No, this information should be turned over to the president-elect, and the fact that McCain did what most people would call the right thing only proves how much he hates Trump. That is an apt description of paranoia.

    This isn’t the logic of a President, to put it mildly.

    Trump continued his rant as the workers, many of them veterans, listened in shocked silence. “I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted, which as president, I had to approve,” Trump said. “I don’t care about this, I didn’t get a thank you — that’s okay. We sent him on the way. But I wasn’t a fan of John McCain.”

    A good guess is that Trump is referring to the fact that he personally authorized the use of Air Force 2 to fly McCain’s body from Arizona to Washington. Other than that, no one has any idea what he is talking about, except for the fact that this is another apt description of paranoia.

    Americans have serious problem. Their President is a sick man.

    Trump just screwed himself again.

    “I don’t mind,” he said today when asked whether the Mueller report should be made public. “I mean, frankly, I told the House if you want, let them see it.”

    “Let it come out. Let people see it,” Trump added.

    Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6 creates a unique situation with President Trump. Existing Justice Department guidelines say that a sitting president can’t be indicted — guidelines Trump legal spokesman Rudolph W. Giuliani has said Mueller will abide by. If a president can’t be indicted and the Justice Department can report only the things related to an indictment, that means any wrongdoing by Trump wouldn’t be reported.

    If Republicans or the Justice Department want to fight the public release of the Mueller report, Trump just made that more difficult.

    He gave permission for the public release of the report.

    Trump is a genius at opening his big mouth and providing self-incrimination. .

    There is something seriously wrong with this man.

    But we both know you didn't. You would have to travel back in time, and change the congressional voting record.

    you know that I have.
    The data is quite clear. The economic trends have been on the exact same upward swing since 2010. Trump has had no effect on those trends.

    The titles of your posts are so....laughable. You title this OP "Trump's fans know they have lost" and all that I can think is "Lost what??" I look at all of the Democrat candidates that are taken seriously and all that I can think is that the Democrats have lost their collective minds. I find it hard to believe that Hillary is the best candidate the Democrats have fielded since they gave us Gore the climate whore in 2000.
