Someone should splice together the Russian TV spots on putin with Fox News on trump. And just run it as an ad in every state.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

“King of Israel” and “second coming of God” would mean Jesus, right? Trump essentially called himself Jesus this morning. Can’t wait to see the conservative Christians not care even a little.

I know he's always sucked, but it seems like he's getting worse.

Actually Wayne Allan Root called Trump Jesus. Trump just thanked him for the nice gesture.

Repeating that shit through an official channel and not refuting/condemning it or commenting on the absurdity of it is equivalent to saying it yourself.

That was my post that got bottom paged, but before I saw the tweet-sanity. The CC's have compromised themselves anyway, but their pious disposition denies recognizing that fact, and their self justifying lunacy keeps them from hearing it (the self justification statement of I support him "... except for the ..." insert anything from racism, misogyny, immorality, lying, etc.).

totally normal for the POTUS to paraphrase a fucking insane compliment that has zero basis in fact. "75% of all Jews vote Democrat, and they don't like Trump" and "the Jewish people love him like he is the King of Israel". Not exactly congruous!

Facts don't matter to Trump cultists. As long as they can "pown libtards" it's all the same to them.

Brannt, just out of curiosity, have you posted here about the Trump presidency thus far versus what you expected/wanted?

Overall I have been pretty satisfied with Trump. I think he's done a good job stimulating the economy through tax cuts and more specifically deregulation that at least attempts to get back to leveling the playing field in the manufacturing sector. Gorsuch and Kavanaugh were solid picks for the Supreme Court. I give him a ton of credit for taking on China head on when the easy thing to do would be just continue on with business as usual and ride the strong economic wave to re-election. We'll see how that turns out, but I'd do the same if I were him and hope the short term pain leads to a much better deal for the US long-term. Like that he's ready to bring our troops home from the endless wars in the middle east. Like that he's engaged Kim Jong-Un directly in an attempt to denuclearize the peninsula.

The two main big misses are healthcare and immigration. In both cases though, I would say they are a bigger indictment of the Republican party and their complete lack of solutions rather than Trump himself. Trump gave them a golden opportunity to reform both issues and they were completely clueless.

Could do without some of the theatrics, but a lot is warranted given how he is treated by the media.

It's actually amazing what he has accomplished and that he is still standing given who he has gone head to head with (basically by himself) in the last 4 years.

Poor guy getting smacked around by a woman.

@ddale8
Trump says the prime minister of Denmark was “nasty” and “inappropriate” by publicly rejecting his unsolicited proposal to buy Greenland in the way she did. He says she could’ve just said no, and he’s not going to let her talk to him that way.

for a guy who bills himself as the "great negotiator", his way of "taking on" china is absolutely laughable.

Nope.

The time for sitting in a room and pretending to negotiate in good faith ended a long, long time ago. Both countries are being hurt by the trade war but China more so than the US. Industrial production is at its worst level in 17 years and dropping further fast. All economic indicators are way worse than projected.

They will make a deal in the next 6 months.
