re: I voted for trump, but he is policing the world like he said we wouldn't

Trump will make your enemies the footstool for your feet.



That's America first the hardcore way. So nut up.

quote:

---

Almost everything he said he would do he has backtracked on or did the opposite.

A little dramatic I would say. Just because he isnt doing it in the order that you deem important doesnt mean he isnt doing anything at all. Some things just take time.

Things he has done or in the process of doing:

1. Imposed a hiring freeze on federal employees
2. Canceled all funding of sanctuary cities
3. Enacted a temporary ban on new regulations
4. Has talked numerous companies into staying on American Soil
5. Canceled global warming payments to the United Nations
6. Dramatically scaled back the U.S. Education Department (13% reduction)
7. Dramatically scaled back the EPA
8. Asked countries we protect to pay more for joint defense
9. Ensured funding for historic black colleges
10. Slashed federal regulations (2 for 1)
11. Placed lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying for foreign government
12. Defunding Planned Parenthood
13. Approved the Keystone XL project
14. Nominated someone from his list of justices to replace Antonin Scalia (Gorsuch)
15. Stopped TPP
16. Tripling ICE enforcement
17. Canceling visas to foreign countries that won't take undocumented immigrants back


And all that while taking no salary. And I hardly think that Trump ever said he'd "never play golf". He said he'd "never take a vacation".I could be wrong on that though.

It's like some dummies don't understand that the golf course is where business is conducted.

I mean there is a HUGE difference between being on the course with the CEO of Boeing discussing how to bring down costs on defense proejcts, and being on the course with Tiger Woods discussing how to bang hoes without your wife finding out.

Any honest person would concede that point.

This would be like me attempting to get my wife to get on board with me drinking everyday after work because that's where attorneys "get the job done." Sure, many a deal has been made between attorneys over drinks after work, but that doesn't mean my wife is going to live it with all the time, nor does it mean that it is the best time or place to get work done.

In his first 100 days we MOAB'd east Afghanistan

He said he was going to do this

pissed off North Korea and may soon be in WWIII.

Sitting on our arse while NK builds to the capability of hitting US or South Korea is a great strategy.

That's what the last 3 admins did, well actually the last two since Billy helped them out.

quote:

---

build the wall,

---

Mexicans, including an archbishop in Mexico City, consider anyone cooperating with Trump to build the wall to be a traitor.

Mexicans will not pay for the wall.

That's what happened so far. He is looking to Congress to make it up now.
Its in the proposed budget.
Ask your member of the House to cut out that proposed budget item of $10 billion to build part of the wall (not along the Rio Grande), and make Trump pay out of his own pocket.

quote:

---

What happened to America first, build the wall, get out of the Middle East, and help our country before we help others? In his first 100 days we MOAB'd east Afghanistan and pissed off North Korea and may soon be in WWIII.

Dude, Trump has just about every other faction in politics and the world stage lined up against him. Some stuff he is going to have to adapt to as there was no way to know how crazy some of the other players on the world stage are willing to go with their insanity. "America first" doesn't have to be confined to our country's soil either. Our interests are spread out world-wide and if we don't police things to an extent the trouble could easily end up on our soil. Too late then to prevent those issues and we darn sure don't want them. One of the prime functions of government, in particular the Executive Branch is to defend us and our interests. Don't be myopic in thinking that we don't have valid interests in Afghanistan and/or North Korea at the moment, and much of what he is dealing with was set up by others including Bill Clinton for North Korea, Obama for Syria, and, Bush/Obama with Afghanistan. Surely you don't think he was supposed to pull a magic wand out of his arse to fix these situations magically do you?

Finally, who gives a royal shite if we pissed off North Korea. That fool is going to act out sooner or later, who gives a damn about pissing him off? I am glad he did so maybe he can get his arse handed to him and let the NK citizens get some relief with him gone, sooner rather than later. And we MOAB'd Afghanistan? So? If it needed that, which it appears it did, don't screw around like Obama would have...blow the mofos up and let them meet their virgins. I wouldn't say that is poicing the world...it is policing certain areas which require attention to keep it away from us or our allies though. I'm glad he is doing that much at least.

1. Bids for wall have come back and they are reviewing them. This will happen.

Whose paying? Mexico ain't. And in case your missed it Trump's budget was dead on arrival.

2. Syrian strike should have happened under Obama's watch but he always wanted to lead from behind.

As thousands of drone strikes show....oh and killing OBL...but I digress.

Mexicans, including an archbishop in Mexico City, consider anyone cooperating with Trump to build the wall to be a traitor.

what do you think the archbishop says about Mexico building there own wall at the southern border?

Trump said last August that if he became president, he wouldn’t have time for golf. "I'm going to be working for you, I'm not going to have time to go play golf," he said at an event in Virginia.

Why hasn't Spicer or Trump addressed these comments?

quote:

---

Provide his own plan to compete or do anything but threaten congressmen to get the votes

Trump promised repeal and replace immediately. I assumed he had a well designed and thorough plan in place? I mean 7 years of bitching about Obama care and no plan in place except a piece of crap to appease CEO's of insurance carriers?
