Trump touts his own achievements, and the U.N. laughs

In less than two years, my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country,” Trump proclaimed. There was a smattering of audible laughter from the assembled diplomats, representing 193 countries.

The president paused his prepared remarks.

“So true,” Trump said with a tight-lipped smile, adding: “Didn’t expect that reaction, but that’s OK.”

I haven't read the speech or heard it. I just wish there were a little more "We" and a little less "Me" from what I've seen. Humility isn't one of his character traits at all. And we killed Zero for being ever the narcissist.

We'll see what comes of it anyway. It's only the UN.

And we killed Zero for being ever the narcissist.

Right-but mostly because he had so little to his credit in placing himself first and foremost in his own esteem!

Laughing at our President when he’s touting how much better our country is since he’s taken office?

Kick them out and plow the building into rubble.

Trump is doing what no other president has done in my lifetime. What he has accomplished in 21 months is historic. And you dare to think there’s any way you can compare Trump to Obama? Tough Dude...suck it up and look at the sunny side of life.

Actually, quite a good speech. Comprehensive, covered all bases of his programs. Lots of emphasis on individual country sovereignty. Tough if they didn’t like it.

“My administration isn’t just him.
Obama had all democrats and the msm on his side but still said I, Me, My.

Who does Trump have on his side? Couple dozen people?

He’s gotten quite a lot done and it HAS been mostly him.

I beg to differ on that. It’s usually “we...” He’s at the UN and it’s MY not me, or I... it’s MY, meaning the team.

Had he used the collective “we accomplished” instead of “my administration accomplished” it still means my. But politicians (of which Trump is not yet one) use it to avoid sounding narcissistic.

Those who laughed are being added to the list, if they weren’t already on it.

You don’t think his language is a tactic?

This is not very complicated.

The Liberal Left will get their United Nations and their beloved leader.

We call him “the Antichrist”. In the Scripture he is known as the Man of Sin, the Lawless One, the Little Horn and even the Son of Perdition (a name also given to Judas Iscariot).

Go ahead, laugh all you want, liberals. You cannot even figure out what a Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama is.

I watched it. The UN pukes were not laughing by the time he finished.

He said "my administration" - which means a team of people that he leads, not just himself. Obama said "I" or "me", never my administration.

But by all means give us your opinion on it.

From what I can tell, nobody in the news media bothers to do any research.

Why should you be any different?
