Trump exaggerates. Hillary, Obama and Bill are in your face liars.

It’s Klamath Falls, Oregon, so who cares what they think.

” It shows tremendous immaturity and respect for the institutions of government and a high degree of childish ignorance and hubris.”

It’s called “radical liberalism.”

“... I think President Trump shoots from the lip and I wish he’d comment a little less.”

Unlike all the politicians in DC and beyond, he tells you what he thinks, is not going to take crap from others and willing to punch back hard, ... things he learned in NY City, unlike most of the others who put on a mask while they cowardly hide their true characters / intentions. I would wager if he were not this different, he would neither have been nominated for nor elected to the Office.

With regards to the Republican Congress forcing Trump to sign it, it is “comparative liability.” He did not have to sign it. I don’t remember Trump nor any other candidate on either side really address the unsustainable deficit / debt problems during the primaries and general. Ding dong the Tea Party is dead; the Koch brothers didn’t care either. Whoever was elected will eventually be forced to the day of reckoning. I found the author of the article’s concern about this issue very hollow at best. Where was he during the past 16 years?

This is Democracy, like it or not.

Wrong.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep getting together and voting on what's for dinner.

We live in a representational Republic.

You cannot eat the sheep because you out vote him.

From “Escalator Day” in June 2015 thru 11/8/2016 we all knew Obama’s failings that the writer lists. Why didn’t this guy? So now he wants to make nice...? I suppose it can’t hurt, if there’s a chance some airhead libs read the article, but the evil that Obama was/is has been apparent since before HE was elected in ‘08. Still, when anyone comes over from the Dark Side it’s a good thing, I guess.

Build the wall.
Continue Tweeting. (How else will the truth correct the fake news?)

In agreement for the most part. But a great degree of Trump’s problems are of his own making. Can’t tell if it’s intentional diversion or he can’t help himself. Even Kellyanne’s husband agrees.

In spite of all his protestations against the left I’ll bet Jay Ambrose continues to vote a straight Democrat ticket.

He’s a nationally syndicated columnist. This is merely one of hundreds of newspapers that run his opinions. So it does matter.

Even if the wall is just symbolic—its needed. It is a physical sign of American resolve. E-Verify, National ID, Illegals treated like foreign spies, End election fraud. This will solve the problems. Immigration problems must be solved. My suggestions: All aliens who serve in military and get an honorable discharge—get citizenship for them and their wives and children. Citizenship shouldn’t take 10 years, do it two or three. End Chain migration, Death to killer gangs! No more Refugees—we have enough!

This to me shows why the public is repulsed by Democrats. It demonstrates changes in thinking and is very valuable.

I am not a Republican, I did not vote for Donald Trump... but what I wrote after the election was that we should give him a chance. The opposite has occurred. Not only have critics overstated almost every flub he has made, governmental officials in the executive and judicial branches have shoved aside rule of law through felonious leaks, phony decisions and much more in trying to get him no matter what. Through such means, the left has illustrated repeatedly why it is twice the danger to our republic that he is. It has in fact been a danger for some time. Obama was worse...
The author tries to make sense, but undermines it with his own nitwit regurgitation of partisan talking points. Still some surprises. Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.

Obama actually spied on reporters.....threatening them with jail if they did not reveal sources. He set a record in refusing to release government information requested by citizens........

More examples of Obama autocracy......His administration set records for major, costly regulations that stymie business and reduce your freedoms even if some do some good. His Clean Power Plan would have dictated to states that they had to get rid of certain laws.

Due process died. Obama's education department told colleges and universities they must abandon due process for any male accused of sexual harassment. He granted legal status to illegal immigrants after saying some 20 times it would be unconstitutional to do so. He unilaterally rewrote laws. He refused to enforce others.

Obama also skipped the constitutional requirement of having the Senate vote on treaties, thereby making them mere executive orders that Trump could reverse, and fortunately has in the case of Iran.......an enriched Iran is still pursuing nuclear armament and Middle East hegemony.

The Obama philosophy was to ask for little, to get less and then to declare the United States a winner.

================================

Obfuscation, lying and spying were Obama's fave tools.
