wiffleball 4,642 Posted February 17, 2017 If anyone's interested, here's a fact check of about a dozen different things from the presser. Still doesn't capture the amazingly surreal absurdity of it all. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-press-conference-fact-check-president-wrong/story?id=45548271 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,992 Posted February 17, 2017 Trump keeps getting his ass handed to him and the Righties keep declaring victory.. It's almost like a scene out of a Monty Python movie - the Knight with no arms or legs declaring the battle a draw. Did Trump announce when he's going to put and end to all these countries blatantly defying sanctions and treaties - or is he ok calling Wolf? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 12,653 Posted February 17, 2017 I wonder how MSNBC feels when they see Trump going off on CNN? They have to be wondering what they have to do to feel his ire so they can get some attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's almost like a scene out of a Monty Python movie - the Knight with no arms or legs declaring the battle a draw. Did Trump announce when he's going to put and end to all these countries blatantly defying sanctions and treaties - or is he ok calling Wolf? I agree with this. I wonder if Trump wouldn't be better served by talking less and doing more of what he said he wanted to do. Those things may fail, but people voted for him based on (what they hoped would be) action. The more this Administration talks, the worse they look. Less talk and more "do". I still hope that this can be salvaged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's almost like a scene out of a Monty Python movie - the Knight with no arms or legs declaring the battle a draw. Did Trump announce when he's going to put and end to all these countries blatantly defying sanctions and treaties - or is he ok calling Wolf? What sanctions could they possibly betray? They break a treaty and then Trump puts new sanctions on them. We control the sanctions. I think. Let me know if I'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 816 Posted February 17, 2017 I think most Trump voters (me) are surprised he still gives over-the-top speeches (doesn't sound presidential), and are concerned about his buddy relationship with Putin. Other than that.... make America great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,642 Posted February 17, 2017 Based upon this thread (and past threads) it seems like the guys who say Trump did great - actually didn't watch it - they just waited to get their talking points from wherever. To watch this cold is just bizarre. Even Republican Senators have come out and said things like "He should do that with a therapist, not in front of the press." and "We're just trying to manage this sxit". That's not the media, that's not Dems, I mean, an objective watch of this circus couldn't possibly NOT elicit a WTF? or 12. It's not even a policy disagreement. It was just - unhinged. You could pretty much pull anything out - just odd. Like he was drunk or something. - Just awkward, uncomfortable, weird - not to mention just plain wrong in many instances. I mean, it's great for the comics and newsnets, but somebody from his administration, this party - whatever - has to be able to pull this guy aside for his own good.

Wow, that's a lot. Pretty soon Trump is going to read off of a list of every company in the United States and claim that he saved every one of them from going overseas. Lol That's a great new job strategy. Since he knows he's not going to be able to match the job Obama did on the unemployment rate, just take credit for random companies who stay in business. And watch morons like Drobeski fall for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mungwater 588 Posted February 17, 2017 At first I was under the impression that trump will only be a one termed, which I think he's okay with, but now I honestly don't think he is going to last to midterms.

I mean, I never would have believed that a pope would quit And that happened At first I was convinced he could do alright if he could do alright if he surrounded himself with the right people, only person that I recall that got approved for his cabinet without a hitch: the wrestling lady.. just let that sink in for a second, the least controversial person is one that pretended to be comatose in a ring and let her husband make out with chicks in front of her for a wrestling bit.

So you guys are staying away with your tail tucked between your legsI can't speak for everyone but a lot of these things you guys keep bringing up I really don't care about. I care about the stuff that affects my day to day.I dont care about a Russian ambassador. I don't care about his electoral win comments. I said before I think this is intentional from him. He's quietly getting things done and he's keeping liberals on tilt following all these tweets and rallies and press conferences. He's keeping Democrats from cultivating a platform or candidate to run against him. So to answer your question I think a lot of supporters at least here don't respond because they are not major things that move the needle when they are focused on the policies he's actually trying to get in place.

His national security advisor was fired (Trump admits as much)...and that it would not have even happened and the man would still have clearance if the press didn't report on it. E.
