We love our new President don't we folks?

It's the mess that none of us can see that needs the attention; an inbred, overly politicized and agenda driven D.C. Culture that has bled into the IRS, DOJ, IC, the military, and so on...

So far it's been an utter clusterfrick. Cabinet nominees having to withdraw
Did you say the same of Obama??
(1) Obama’s pick for National Intelligence Council chairman, Charles Freeman, was extremely controversial (antisemetic) and was forced to resign in March 2009.
(2) Bill Richardson was withdrawn as Commerce Secretary nominee
(3) Tom Daschle was forced to withdraw as Obama’s Health and Human Services Secretary nominee
(4) Judd Gregg withdrew as Commerce Secretary when it became apparent he was being fed a shite sandwich.
In addition, even after his first 100 days in office, and with an overwhelming Senate Majority, Obama had failed to even forward nominees for 1/2 of his subcabinet department-level posts.

Trump inherited a far better situation than Obama did. Trump is just a moron who isn't fit to run a used car dealership, much less the US.

The biggest thing I find funny is Obama was complaining about a mess created by policies and people he believed in. The financial crisis falls more squarely on policies most heavily supported by the democrats that screamed rascism everytime it was second guessed. The Middle Eastern war and involvement by the US was a bipartisan movement. He blamed Bush for The whole mess, but it was just as much if not more the fault of his party and belief system.
Trump is complaing about a mess created by policies he doesn't believe in. I think everyone would agree that is fair. He is also being undermined unfairly by the media, some establishment losers in the Republican party, a radical democrat party, and career government officials scared to lose their unchecked power. He is doing fairly well considering the ridiculous corrupt opposition. Normal people understand that also.

People like you are what allows the politicians to have the level of power they do. Hook, line, and sinker.

You, the press, and Democrats keep thinking you are so much smarter than Trump. He'll keep winning and you'll keep thinking you are smarter - when clearly you aren't.
I truly feel sorry for people who are this brainwashed. This is the exact kind of stuff you hear from scientologist when they are presented with all of the evidence that their cult is a giant scam.

So it's ok to blame the previous administration now?
If we aspire to have better than Obama why are we lowering ourselves to Obama's level?

Embedded in those rules is the radical's premise that he must disguise his own position, and misstate that of the opponent. It is an approach which enjoys empowering unlikely points of view, but by its nature it also renders them inherently unsustainable.

Trump's approach is the antithesis. He stated exactly what he wanted to do. He was elected on that basis. Now he's doing it, or at least trying to.

So nobody else finds it ethically wrong that he raised prices for his resort and is now billing the taxpayers for all of his stays??
Right off the bat, it's a conflict of interest, which he said would not happen....
Or am I just being beta cuck?

What mess did Trump exactly inherit?

Wow, is this a mess? I thought what Obama inherited was a mess, what with the complete economic meltdown and all.

National Debt at obscene levels.

I could go on, but that's a start.

How am I brainwashed? Just because I understand two things? 1) I don't believe everything DJT says and 2) that he has outsmarted every opponent so far.
You have been brainwashed to think he is evil and stupid.

This is willfully misunderstanding what happened. The racial tensions were because Obama never once sought to diffuse tensions until the facts could emerge. He and his "Justice" Department stoked racial tensions at every opportunity. It is all he knows how to do. It is all the left knows how to do. Calling the Tea Party racist was the only way they knew how to combat them - they couldn't win the argument on its merits, so let's call them racists.
I've said it before, but racial tensions won't go away until the only time the term racist is used is when it is truly warranted. If you throw it out every time, then you are stoking the fire.

I'd like to see the tax reform plan and the Obamacare replacement, you know, things that will actually impact my life. I suppose he will get around to that after all his other bull shite plans like the travel ban and border wall.
I love how Americans pretend that spending $30+k a year in benefits to 12-20 million illegal immigrants does not affect them. The is what $360 billion per year, coservatively?
