Starts troll thread. Posts a couple of times with nothing to say. Sounds like he's just trying to troll the board.

It's what he does. He relishes his role.

As long as he's happy, I guess

People aren't complex. The man craves attention. This isn't difficult to discern. When his campaign was at a low point and seeking a shake up, his advisors asked him how he would like to continue. He said he wanted to do more speeches like in the primary, with large crowds. I will note again: he has continued to do this. It's obvious the guy likes the stage.


What he wants to do is connect directly with the people, so that is what he did at the rallies. Nothing wrong with that - it worked and got him elected President

The great blue wall is impenetrable! The DNC is TOTALLY reliable and fair. The collusion between the media and shitlery is all a lie!

Ohhhh man. You really want to call the right feeble minded? Pot meet kettle.

Oh... And you lost. Bitch.

Yes, Trump definitely has never done any hard work.

Hillary, the career politician that hasn't held an actual job in over 30 years is a very hard worker.

The last president that promised to dismantle the CIA got himself murdered.

What's to understand? America had the choice of voting for Hillary or Trump. Which one of those two would make anyone proud?

Show me a presidential candidate that doesn't crave attention on some level and I'll show you a person who has no designs for the presidency.



This will be the first presidential candidate to call magazines pretending to be his own publicist and the first to purchase steaks at a grocery store and apply his label to them to present a press conference to pretend that Trump Steaks is still a going concern.

In other words, his appetite for attention is still astronomical RELATIVE TO other politicians. Perhaps more crucially, he does not appear to care whether this attention is good or bad.

quote:


A prudent move for anyone hoping to drive their own narrative. Which was going to be essential no matter who the GOP candidate was. Hell, NOT placing an emphasis on that helped fatally wound Romney.


Whether it's a prudent move or not doesn't change the underlying impetus.

Again, I reject your premise. It's flawed and overly simplistic.


Shrug.

LOL

You have no idea what draining the swamp really means..

Let me enlighten you...

Who did he pick for the heads of almost every dept so far?

People who opposed most of the bad crushing policies of said depts.

How many fricktard leftists and GOPE cucks has he appointed?

Almost none.


Oh sure you say he appointed Goldman S. and Big Oil people.

Isn't that who he said he would appoint? Ruthless business people who know how to make good deals and now they will be making those good deals for America and American companies which means good jobs for the rest of us?

I was not a Trump fan until after he won the nomination. I didn't think he would win the election and didn't think he would upset the Established Politics of influence and pull that has been running us for 50+ years.

So far I admit I was completely wrong. We may actually be witnessing the greatest revival of America and the ideals that made us great since the The late 19th and early 20th century.
All done while preserving and extending the rights and freedoms of everyone.

I Hope and Pray he is successful and can pull off it off without the establishment taking him out.

I'd rather a president who lies about cuts of meat than health insurance. "If you like your plan, you can keep it".

You mean he's is not going to use campaign slogans while serving as a sitting President? Oh noz....


This article does not say that he is not going to enact some reforms, it just says he is not going to use the literal phrase, "Drain the swamp."
