DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Palus Politicus Trump Is Making U.S. Weaker, Says Top Diplomat, As Record Numbers Quit

Our enemies have already pounced.
The current resident of 1600 Penn and the concomitant discussions regarding his basic competency are the direct result of those efforts.


Thank you for your service.



1. If 2018 brings a red/blue flip on CapHill
2. If enough current GOP with souls and standards tire of this circus act-

-either will be enough.


Because when we finally reach that (inevitable) 'critical mass event' he initiates...
...someone's gonna have to impeach/25 his ass.


And it won't be for lack of evidence, legitimacy or necessity. From either or any 'side.'

_________________________

I want you to understand something, 40. I don't write the things I do because I'm from the Left. I write them because of who he is and what he says and does.

18 months ago, 17 people stood on a GOP debate stage. 16 were at least marginally qualified to be there. You supported the only one who was truly not.

Not by job experience
Not by personal history of success
Not by intellect
Not by moral/ethical authority
Not by temperament.

ANY GOP candidate running in that primary would be a serious upgrade over this room temp IQ, senile blowhard. Yes, I'm serious.
Carly Fiorina and Rick Santorum serious.
Ben "my luggage" Carson serious.
Rick "my new glasses alone make me look smart enough to run the DOE" Perry serious.

You should also understand that I've lived under six R Presidents and five D presidents... and never once did I think any of them incompetent.

Until now.
Now is different.
Now is.... this particular man.


On 11/9/16, I made two predictions:

1. "There will be buyer's remorse"
2. "It's not a matter of if- it's only a matter of when and how."

1. One year in, and I'm already hearing the remorse from right-leaning friends who voted more 'anti-HRC' than 'pro-45*.' I'm not their most sympathetic/understanding of friends, these days.

2. Dude's too ignorant about pesky li'l things like Constitutional Law to avoid impeachment- and too impulsive/erratic/unpredictable to avoid competency challenges from the first officials with enough spine to initiate the proceedings.


A thread suspends this man right now... and he's made too many enemies everywhere to have much of a safety net when the first nibbles at that thread commence.

"The sooner, the better" I say.


Because I'd feel much more secure casting my lot with a Mike Pence/GOP Gov't than anything this d00d could construct.

So, if in the party election, I voted for someone other than Trump, but in the presidential election, I voted for Trump over Hillary, I'm a p.o.s.?

So he wants to greatly increase our military and strengthen our nuclear capabilities and weaken our diplomatic capabilities... makes perfect sense, unless you actually want peace.

Trump wasn't 40s first pick or second for that matter. He settled like sheep do.

Is this true?
I don't remember a time when 40 wasn't totally in the tank for Platinum Hairpiece 45*.

Who did he support before he became a die-hard fan of the 'Reverse Raccoon Creamsicle Buffoon?'

You'd have to go back and look, but I remember him liking lying Ted for a while and somebody else I think. Look at the primary threads, it's there somewhere early on when nobody thought Trump had a chance.

Hey 40 ... whats up bud .. hope all is well .. u making any progress yet .... *L* ...

Good timing on this article .... ..

Judging by the reception Trump got in China as opposed to the EMPTY TARMAC with NO ONE THERE to greet oBUMa ... i’d say the trumpster is doing just fine ...

Ya buddy ....

GO DONALD ...

Why wouldn’t they?

Trump has made China a lot of money. Him and his daughters products are made over there.

And his policies are the same ones that helped corporations move their operations to their country.

He’s helping make China great again. Not so much for our country, though.

Funny that you’re happy that’s happening.

During the Primaries my support jumped around.

I started supporting Bush until Trump showed us Bush is Gumby in a suit.

Then I liked Rubio for a bit as he seemed more with it than Gumby. Trump soon showed me Rubio wasn't ready to lead.

Next it was Ted Cruz. I liked him and when the Primaries came to my state, I voted for him.
Soon after I regretted it as Trump showed me Ted was polarizing and was not liked by Congress. When pressure was applied by Trump on Ted, Ted became a bit unraveled.

Finally I came to my senses and it was Trump from then on.
The Brash outsider who spoke about the problems facing America and a desire to fix them is something I wanted to hear.

He has lived up to everything I expected of him.
The establishment in Washington will not allow this outsider to threaten their power structure and have done everything in their power to stop Trump, but Trump is still there, calling them out at every turn.

Now, in keeping with the title of this thread, I see President Trump allowing Diplomats and other Executive Branch employees quit and retire while not replacing them because the Executive Branch has become very bloated over the years and that is an expense to taxpayers Trump will not tolerate much longer.

You believe that the man who has exploded the federal detail budget because he insists on golfing at his clubs non-stop and triples the room rates charged to Secret Service members will not tolerate taxpayer waste?

Also, I don't think entrusting the wisdom of a man with a child-like understanding of the executive branches duties is a particularly wise move.

Donald Trump heaps praise on China and blames US for trade deficit

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/nov/09/donald-trump-china-act-faster-north-korea-threat

It's going to start getting really bad when more places figure out that all it takes is a parade for him, and you can fleece the U.S. with ridiculous trade and arms deals.

So you settled for Trump and drank the koolaid, got it.

And he is allowing the diplomats to quit in droves and not replace them, because in his mind 'He is the only one that matters'! This dunce thinks he can single handedly handle state affairs! WHAT?

This means there will be a big breakdown in fragile diplomatic channels around the world, but it's all good 'cause Trumps got this... idiot.

Trump is right. China taking advantage of previous American administrations for the sake of the Chinese people is exactly the right thing to do if you are running China.

We were stupid for making such deals.

Now President Trump works to right the wrong we did to ourselves.

Well, I'm with you on two out of the three.

The Saudis discovered that on day 1. Russia discovered it in 2013

How do you suppose a man who doesn't seem to understand what the term "trade deficit" really means, and has a decades long track record of getting rolled in negotiations, will "work to right the wrong"?

Link? Proof? Anything other than Spew?

Twitter Is Banned in China. Here's How Donald Trump Got Round the Problem

http://fortune.com/2017/11/09/trump-twitter-china-xi-noko/

Wow! This dolt changed his official Twitter banner to a pic of Him, Melania, Xi and his wife at some sort of kabuki event or something. This is the strangest thing I've ever seen a US President do. Xi really stroked Donny's ego and Donnie paid him back 10 fold by providing pure gold nuggets for CHinese state media.

Xi just wrote the book on how to handle DJT.

You have to see this banner to believe it.
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump

Man oh man you liberals hate on everything.

It's widely evident that he doesn't understand how trade deficits work. Pull up any clip of him discussing them. This was clear even during the campaign. He has a very rudimentary, child-like understanding of deficits and trade.

This is the photo that says everything about Donald Trump's first year as President

http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/08/politics/donald-trump-photo-1-year/index.html

Trump tweets at 2:30 am Beijing time:





Priceless! The Dems sweep the elections and he thanks the 'deplorables' for his victory a year ago. HE'S STILL TALKING ABOUT HIS WIN TRYING TO VALIDATE HIS PRESIDENCY!

Every one of those links is about Trade.

President Trump has been dealing with Trade issues for 1 year yet you said this...

" has a decades long track record of getting rolled in negotiations,"

That would mean he was getting rolled in Business Negotiations and we all know that is a Lie.

So, once again, I spy a Media Fake News Master twisting facts to suit his false assertions.

Shame!

First, we pay to protect our President whether or not you like it.

Second, President Trump no longer runs his hotels or clubs so room rates are set by those who rent the rooms and run the place. I am sure the Secret Service demands a separate floor for the President and his detail.

Third, do you not think a large part of the extra expense for security is due to those Loving, Caring, Inclusive, Empathetic Liberals and Elites who threaten his life constantly, threaten to blow up the White House, hold up his mock severed head, and spew some of the worst things ever spewed at a fellow human?
He has received tens of thousands of death threats since he was elected and those have to be investigated.

Just read the hate that flows on these Boards alone.

As long as a good portion of our society is mentally sick and out of control emotionally, the need for security is high.

1) It's beyond obvious that he still has a hand in the day-to-day on his hotels and clubs

2) He was jacking these rates as a candidate. He's a grifter and a con man- it's his nature.

But, again, the notion that Trump won't tolerate (or even understands the basics of) expenditure and waste is laughable. He's on pace to outspend Obama's 8 years in just one, mainly because of ludicrously wasteful spending and grifts that line his pocket. The idea that he's looking to save the taxpayer money has no basis in fact or reality.

Just the other day in S. Korea he pitched his club at Bedminster (sp)as the place where a S. Korean female Golfer won a tourny.

Since he won the presidency, he doubled the membership fees at Mar A Lago.

So, Please don't tell me he's not involved in running the businesses.

Your words, not mine.
It's possible for you to be a good guy... who voted for a pos.
There's a difference.

China is taking advantage of American administrations for the sake of the Chinese people..including the present one.

He's also running a thinly veiled pay-for-play through his Palm Beach club. Not even trying to hide it or muddy the waters.

Anybody who voted Repub, or Dem in the Presidential election voted for a POS.

Some POS lined up weeks early to vote for a POS.

YUCK ...

When it started i was very interested in Trump, Carly and Ben cause they were outsiders ... and two of the three were business people ... also curious about Cruz as he was an “outsider on the inside” ...

Cruz lost me when i started paying attention relatively quickly .. i told my bro a few weeks before trump called him lyin ted that he lied through his teeth all the time .. so he was out ..

After about a month .. i was onboard the trump train ..

- i want to live in a country not europe where anyone can come at will .. BUILD THAT WALL ..
- he was a business guy that wanted to bring jobs back to the country ...
- he didn’t want to let jihadists in ... they can talk til their blue in the face .. u can’t vette people that their is NO BACKROUND info on other than what they tell u ..

Anyhow .. i agreed with his vision of the country ..

Can’t believe u inked Jeb or Rubio ... YUCK ... Rubio lost me with the gang of 8 crap .. YUCK ...

None of y'all gave Rand a chance. He was the only sensible one.

He grew on me ... i actually have a lot of respect for him now ... hes earned it since the trumpster took over ...

I don’t agree with him a lot .. but he is very fair and objective ...

I also have a ton more respect for Cruz now .. if he can get past the lying thing ... i could support him ..

Not sure if i could ever support rand ... he has a lot of “wierd” views IMO ...

He has libertarian views. They arent weird.....

Rand is the only one out of the gop politicians (excluding Trump) who doesnt follow the party line. He has his own views and genuine convictions on things. He is not a bought and paid for schlep.

I stayed away from him because I knew he was yours.

Trump follows the party line to a T. They just don't like him because they feel he lacks decorum.

He shifted just about every view he's ever had to win their primary, and he clearly doesn't know the specifics or details of any proposal - he just blindly praises them as "great" health care or "great" tax bill.

He's in line with the party at around a 96%-98% rate.

Trump really isnt a republican though. He was a Democrat for many years. He is more of a chameleon to achieve his goals.
