Isn't his high IQ based on the fact that he went to a fancy college, ignoring the fact that he only got in because daddy bunged them a huge amount of money.
'Well he's the president, so he can't be a batshit mental, narcissistic, war mongering, barely literate oaf, and I'm going to believe everything he says, because he's the president'
And don't forget to stand for the anthem or you will be fired as an unpatriotic son of a bitch that doesn't respect freedom.
A lot of his influence on people seems to be because he's the president (obvs)
..and the myth that he's an incredibly successful business man who made a fortune. Neglecting his business failures (Trump Airlines, University etc) and that he actually inherited his money which is a different thing to making it.

This site is a reflection of what I'm seeing on social media - the silence from the pro-Trump brigade of late is deafening. It's as if they've finally realised that their man is a colossal charlatan.
I did have someone pop up the other day to argue that in his opinion, climate science was flawed, but normal sane people aren't even bothering to engage with these cretins anymore.

Well... things seem to be hotting up.
As I've said before, whats interesting is seeing to point at which people (or groups of people) stop supporting/defending him.
Honestly - given his base demographic, I wonder if he could have handled this any worse. But I suppose the soldier was black (as was his mum, wife, kids and the congresswoman who witnessed the call) so maybe they wont be too upset. In fact, it was probably his own fault he got shot 🙄

More I do not recall from Sessions
The US attorney general, Jeff Sessions, has given a new account of his contacts with the Russian ambassador during the 2016 election, conceding it was possible that they had discussed Donald Trump’s policy positions.Under intense questioning by the Senate judiciary committee, Sessions departed from his previous blanket denials about contacts with Russian officials, saying he did “not recall” elements of the conversations in three meetings in 2016 with the ambassador, Sergey Kislyak, and conceded for the first time that substantive issues may have been discussed.

Which one is left untarnished in this?
"He knew what he signed up for", jeezo
Perhaps, next time, when Poor little Donnie is whining about how tough it is being president of the US, someone could repeat these sentiments to him.
And yet after all this it seems, according to various people who would know, that it will be virtually impossible to get him out in any other way than in a box. There's just not the political will to go up against the "fake news!" machine.
The GOP are soon to be embroiled in a bitter civil war for the "soul" (no pun intended) of the party, given that Bannon is calling for replacement of moderate senators with hard-right nut jobs paid for by some very powerful donors.
The Democrats for their part have exploited the tension between the GOP and Trump, they know that stroking Drumpf's ego will be enough to win some key concessions. Mid-term elections aren't far away, the political landscape will change significantly if the ruling party is at war with itself.
Meanwhile, Trump's "plan" seems to be becoming clearer. He seeks to undo everything achieved under Obama, with no regard given to medium to long term planning. It really is that simple.
Yet another example of Trump denigrating Obama’s operational policies, yet has nothing at all to replace them with:

The thing is, I'm not sure he really knew and understood what he was signing up for when he became POTUS - and still doesn't really know and understand now. I imagine he thought he could be like a dictator and just say 'I want this to happen' and people would get it done, no questions. How many EOs can a president write? As that seems to be the only way he's getting his agenda done.
Agree on pettiness of undoing (or trying to undo) Obama, but he's damaging America and also the world through his actions and tweets (and his family aren't helping... Honestly, if I'd have made that many 'mistakes' on my security forms, I wouldn't be allowed to do my job! And there's also the 'But their emails....', which seems to have died down - MSM keeping it in reserve??)

Marvellous stuff. Donnie on form on his early morning toilet stop.

This. I wouldn't mind so much if there was a deep ideological difference between them, or Donald thought that Obamas policies were in somewhere detrimental to the furtherment of the USA, but it's literally 'he came up with it so I'm stopping it.', as said above with no alternative, not even a crap alternative, just as long as it's not Obamas policy.
Petty child.
Incidentally, I notice that the defenders on here are somewhat subdued of late, are they seeing the error of their ways or have they gone on enforced holidays/simply got bored?
Hilary Clinton mentioned in an interview about the job of POTUS being to unit the country not divide it as trump-breath seems intent on doing. The fact that both his predecessors (Obama and GW Bush) have publicly commented about this despite the protocol of previous incumbents not commenting on their successors should speak volumes.
Trump seems content in playing to his baying supporters rather than reaching out to anyone else.
GW Bush
Remember when he was considered a fool? Seems we really misunderestimated where we could go from there...

I think this is why the Reps stuck with Trump: He can play the bad guy, and get rid of everything Obama did, no matter how positive, and the rest of them can sit back and look moderate by comparison. Then, at the next election, one of the "more moderate" Rep candidates will swan in and play the good guy, by which time all the damage will have been done.
he's essentially a Republican patsy.
Remember when he was considered a fool? Seems we really misunderestimated where we could go from there...
Yes, it's come to something when GWB is talking sense!
The Democrats must be in a bit of a bind: on the one hand they don't want to see Trump destroying things wholesale but on the other, getting rid of Trump means Pence gets in and he knows how things work and how to push the right (not the red!) buttons to make things happen. Their strategy has to be to let Trump make such a mess that the mid-term elections are a disaster for the GOP and hope they take enough seats to properly control things.
Anyone else feeling some nostalgia for the days of George HW Bush and John Major?
seem like the bawbag has taken interest in our crime rate and seems to be suggest it's all down to the Islamic Mobsters !
Just out report: "United Kingdom crime rises 13% annually amid spread of Radical Islamic terror." Not good, we must keep America safe!
The crimes that account for most of that rise:
Domestic abuse (18%)
Bicycle theft (19%)
Violence without injury (21%)
Stalking and harassment (36%)
Sex offences (19%)
Damn those radical islamic bike thieves!
Would it do any good to retweet that quote about our crime rate with a #fakenews tacked on?
Remember when he was considered a fool? Seems we really misunderestimated where we could go from there...
The thing with Bush was that he's not actually a bad guy, remember this was a man who visited mosques immediately after 9/11 - to unify the country and make American Muslims less fearful.
Bushes problem was that he was naieve when it came to being able to actually help Iraq and Afghanistan.

Say what you want about Trump, but is he as good a demolitionist as the current Tories?
I'm not sure he really knew and understood what he was signing up for when he became POTUS
The thing I forget (and I'm not the only one) is that he never expected to be president. The result was a total suprise/shock to both Clinton & Trump.
When he first entered the race to be Republican candidate I very much doubt that actually becoming President was what motivated him or that he gave any thought to what being President meant.
I had a chart 😆
Mueller s filed his charges so Monday may be interesting to see who gets taken into custody.
Weekend tweets might be intresting 🙂
Well I'll put my money on Manafort to get the first pic, maybe one of the advisors along the way.

Mattis is raising the game on that one, though I'm not sure anyone has presented an argument that NK can be anything other than a complete screw up.

Clinton and the DNC’s credibility, what litte they had anyway, is in tatters after they have been found to have funded the fake Russian dosiser.
I thought political oppo research (copyright Donnie Jr) was deemed OK these days? Huckabee told me so, I think.
TBH the reputations of the Dems, Trump and GOP (members of which part funded the dossier research when they were still trying to get Jeb Bush elected) are looking a tad threadbare right now.
Wouldn't put it past the Democrats to fluff the Congressional elections next year and leave Trump (well, what's left of the Grand Old Party) still controlling both houses.

So who's going to jail then, obviously no one as the investigation is clearly fake and the grand jury who agreed with the evidence are clearly just paid off by Clinton.
