He really says shit because he thinks his followers are idiots -
“The boarder wall is being built!” no that is a picture from over a month ago – from a project that started in 2009
“I have been harder on Russia than any President ever!” right, you have done nothing more than you have been forced to do.
“Caravan coming to the US to take advantage of DACA!” – cant be done, only recipients from 2007 or earlier can be a part of DACA – idiot
“Dems don’t want to fix DACA!” wrong, they have come to you with many fixes that have been bipartisan, when you said you would accept anything, and you have said no – because of your cronies at your side.
“The P.O. is losing billions because of Amazon!” no they aren’t the have already said they are making money from Amazon. Oh, and PS many companies make deals like SWA on fuel – they made a deal they can do that.
“The Amazon Washing Post doesn’t pay taxes!” no that is you who doesn’t pay taxes, Amazon pays plenty in taxes. And PS - just because Bezos owns both they are not affiliated, and it is clear you think that he has something to do with the truthful articles written, but he isn’t Pecker, (from the Enquirer) Bezos has nothing to do with the Post articles.
“No collusion!” sorry there is proof of collusion already – Jr, Manafort, Kusher in a meeting with Russians, and over 10 people who have met with Russians and lied about it!

I am completely amazed at how this administration thinks. They constantly say "this should have been handled...." or "I inherited a mess"
1) did you seriously expect to go into the White House and do nothing? It is an ever changing job dude.
2) every time a new president comes in they handle the government different. If Bush does one thing, and Obama comes in to change it - he doesnt say "it should have been handled..." He does what he can to change it.
3) Democrats do things differently than Republicans. Every time a different party comes in they adjust, it is how it is.
The only person who will really have a treacherous job will be the person who actually comes in next term who inherits this "mess," THAT president will deserve a lot of credit. Because it actually will be a mess. Not the so-called mess you came into after Obama got us out of a tailspin heading towards a depression. We would have all been fucked if you came in after Bush.
Does reverse racism exist? These quotes from writers, activists and entertainers show why many believe reverse discrimination is just a myth.
In the 21st century, many white Americans feel that they suffer more race-based discrimination than their fellow Americans from minority backgrounds. A 2011 study by researchers at Tufts University’s School of Arts and Sciences and Harvard Business School found that whites believe that anti-white bias, or “reverse racism,” is at an all-time high. But is this perception accurate? Sociologists and social activists are among those who argue that reverse discrimination is actually not on the rise because it’s more of a myth than a reality.
They say that while some people of colour may be prejudiced against whites, they don’t have the institutional power to discriminate against whites in a systemic manner that whites have historically discriminated against racial minorities. Quotes about reverse racism from prominent social progressives explain why it’s far from widespread and why complaints about such discrimination are reactionary. They say that those who complain about reverse discrimination fear to lose racial privilege as society moves to level the playing field.
People of Color Lack the Institutional Power to Discriminate Against Whites
In his essay “A Look at the Myth of Reverse Racism,” anti-racist activist Tim Wise discusses why he thinks U.S. society has been organized in such a way that people of colour can’t oppress whites in the same way that whites have historically oppressed minorities.
“When a group of people has little or no power over you institutionally, they don’t get to define the terms of your existence, they can’t limit your opportunities, and you needn’t worry much about the use of a slur to describe you and yours, since, in all likelihood, the slur is as far as it’s going to go,” Wise writes.
“What are they going to do next: deny you a bank loan? Yeah, right. … Power is like body armour. And while not all white folks have the same degree of power, there is a very real extent to which all of us have more than we need vis-à-vis people of colour: at least when it comes to racial position, privilege and perceptions.”
Wise elaborates on his argument by discussing how even poor whites have advantages over middle-class blacks. For example, poor whites are more likely to be employed and own property than blacks is because they don’t experience racism in the workplace and they’ve inherited property from family members. Blacks, on the other hand, have long faced barriers to employment and homeownership that continue to affect their communities today.
“None of this is to say that poor whites aren’t being screwed…by an economic system that relies on their immiseration: they are,” Wise asserts. “But they nonetheless retain a certain ‘one-up’ on equally poor or even somewhat better off people of colour thanks to racism. It is that one-up that renders the potency of certain prejudices less threatening than others.”
Minorities Can Be Prejudiced, But Can They Be Racist?
Sociologist Eduardo Bonilla-Silva labels the concept of reverse racism “nonsensical.” The author of Racism Without Racists remarked in a 2010 interview with website The Grio:
“When whites talk about reverse discrimination, I feel that they are making a silly argument because what they really want to say is that we, people of colour, have the power to do to them what they have done to us from the 13th century.”
Bonilla-Silva says that some people of colour are prejudiced against whites but points out that they lack the power to discriminate against whites on a massive scale. “We do not control the economy. We do not control politics — despite the election of Obama. We don’t control much of this country.”
The Idea That Minorities of Influence Seek Revenge Against Whites Is Fiction
Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson says that political conservatives make claims of reverse discrimination to advance the idea that people of colour in influential positions are out to get whites. He wrote in a 2010 column on the issue: “A cynical right-wing propaganda machine is peddling the poisonous fiction that when African Americans or other minorities reach positions of power, they seek some kind of revenge against whites.”
Robinson asserts that not only isn’t this idea false but also that prominent conservatives are playing it up to win over white voters. He doubts that most conservatives actually believe that vengeful decision makers of colour are using their influence to hurt whites.
“Most of them…are merely seeking political gain by inviting white voters to question the motives and good faith of the nation’s first African American president. This is really about tearing Barack Obama down,” Robinson said. “These allegations of anti-white racism are being deliberately hyped and exaggerated because they are designed to make whites fearful. It won’t work with most people, of course, but it works with some—enough, perhaps, to help erode Obama’s political standing and damage his party’s prospects at the polls.
Reverse Racism Denies the Minority Experience With Discrimination
Bill Maher, comedian and HBO’s “Real Time” host, takes issue with reverse racism because it ignores the people of colour continue to experience oppression today. Maher particularly objects to conservative Republicans making more of an issue of so-called reverse racism than they do of racism against minorities. In 2011, he remarked, “In today’s GOP there is only one correct answer to the discussion about racism. And that is: There is no racism in America anymore. Except for reverse-racism against whites.”
Moreover, Maher points out that Republicans have offered up no solutions to combat reverse racism. He suggests that this is the case because reverse racism isn’t real.
Instead, reverse racism functions to deny the racism that people of colour in U.S. society have long endured. He explained, “Denying racism is the new racism. To not acknowledge those statistics, to think of that as a ‘black problem’ and not an American problem. To believe, as a majority of FOX viewers do, that reverse-racism is a bigger problem than racism, that’s racist.”
The “best” argument America has for not fixing its problems is “angry White dudes will get violent”. That’s not a solution, it’s sociopathy. - @docrocktex26

1) If you arm 20% of teachers in this country that would be 640,000 (est) teachers - that is more than the number of active duty military that we have.
2) There is no time in a teacher's day/week to be trained fully for an attack
3) This current happening lasted about 7 minutes. The shooter dropped the gun and ran with the students after that time. Any trained teacher would not have determined the shooter within that time - and 17 people still died.

one year ago today Trump overturned Obama’s regulation to enforce stricter laws on gun control for people with mental health issues. Every Republican who cries mental health issues should be ashamed of themselves. It is disgusting how much they dont care and wont care until one of their family members suffers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cBLZTFc42g
Odds are, sadly, that will happen to one of them eventually. For the families who are suffering, I pray for you, to the Republicans who wont change, I pray for you, for this country raising kids in a gun infested PTS atmosphere, I pray for you.
15 out of 21 - Trump is verbally/psychologically abusive - there is no other way to describe him https://psychcentral.com/…/21-warning-signs-of-an-emotiona…/:
Psychological abuse can look like:
Humiliating or embarrassing you.
Constant put-downs.
Hypercriticism.
Refusing to communicate.
Ignoring or excluding you.
Extramarital affairs.
Provocative behavior with opposite sex.
Use of sarcasm and unpleasant tone of voice.
Unreasonable jealousy.
Extreme moodiness.
Mean jokes or constantly making fun of you.
Saying “I love you but…”
Saying things like “If you don’t _____, I will_____.”
Domination and control.
Withdrawal of affection.
Guilt trips.
Making everything your fault.
Isolating you from friends and family.
Using money to control.
Constant calling or texting when you are not with him/her.
Threatening to commit suicide if you leave.
When it comes to your vote for US Senator, I hope you take into consideration all of the info at hand. The position of a Senator is to represent your state in the government. When it comes to Roy Moore, is he really who you want to represent you?
Now, I know that your religion is what guides you. I can appreciate that. But Roy Moore is using religion as a cover. As did all of those priests that the church covers up.
You do realize that he first saw his wife when he was at a dance recital, right? Why one earth was he there? She was 15 and he remembered her! There is something wrong with that. https://youtu.be/3FLeEex0PEw
You do realize that he used his position on the Alabama Supreme Court to side with sexual abusers, right? Of all decisions issued by the Alabama supreme court during Moore’s second stint found decisions on 16 criminal cases that involved alleged sexual crimes. Moore sided with the offender over state prosecutors in 13 of those cases! There is something wrong with that! https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/nov/14/roy-moore-alabama-law-rape-victims-judge https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/17/us/roy-moore-judicial-record.html
I know you want to believe that McConnell is mixed up with those darn Democrats trying to keep Moore out, but seriously, McConnell is not that conniving. He doesn’t have that in him.
To those who feel that the Washington Post article is a lie, it isn’t. As a person who was abused, and who waited until the man died before I said anything, as did every other woman who was abused by him, I know that women wait. Look at Weinstein, look at every single woman who has come out about their abuse, they waited. We waited. It isn’t uncommon.
The rest of the country is concerned about this because the rest of the country sees what some of you can’t: This man is a predator. There is no way around that fact. We don’t care (no one does) if religion gets into the Senate. Actually, most Senators have religion in them. This is about Moore, and no one else. When I hear your people say “I believe the women, but we need a Republican in the Senate” it gives me the creeps. You would really rather have a child abuser in that seat instead of a Democrat? There is something wrong with that.
So please, you are smart people, do some research. It isn’t hard to find the answers. This isn’t partisan. If you have religion in you, then follow your morals. Just because “Thou shall not molest children” isn’t a commandment, doesn’t mean you give him a pass.

I can see you saying yes “he’s right about Mexicans being rapists” (oh, wait, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “he can grab anyone anywhere he wants” (oh, wait, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “he can date that 10 year old in 10 years if he wants to” (Oh, wait, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “yes he needs to ban all Muslims from the country” (oh, wait, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “if he raped them, then he raped them, no big deal” (oh, wait, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “she is ugly, he just told the truth” (oh, wait, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “he does have big hands” (LOL, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “he can call anyone any name he wants, mature people do that” (oh, wait)
I can see you saying “he can make fun of learning disabled people” (no I can’t)
I can see you saying “Megyn Kelly, there was blood” (um, no I can’t)
I can see you saying “John McCain isn’t a war hero – he was captured” (um, no)
I can see you saying “he should date Ivanka if she wasn’t his daughter” (ewww)
I can see you saying “everything is fake news unless Trump says it isn’t” (ummm)
I can see you saying “he didn’t encourage fights at his rally’s” (if you believe his fake news comments)
I can see you saying “Comey deserved to be fired” (if you watch FOX’s lies)
I can see you saying “No collusion! That Don Jr email was fake news” (even though he released it)
I can see you saying “Scaramucchi was a great idea – he shouldn’t have been fired” (yes, if you believe all the rest, it makes sense)
I can see you saying “North Korea – he is doing a great job with Kim” (smh)
But I can’t believe that anyone ever thought that Trump’s inability to denounce a group that defies every single thing that our country stands for, was acceptable. I cannot believe that you would say that his comments were sufficient, I can’t believe that his second reading of words (because I wont call it a statement) was acceptable to you. I simply can’t, I won’t, ever.
I don’t mess with anti Christ stuff, but for years I listened to people call Obama the AntiChrist, coming up with so many parallels that I could not believe. So my question is this:
We all know the story that the world will end after WWIII and Trump is doing everything he can to start WWIII - today was no exception. Whether intentional or accidental, he is on that path. Why is it that the whole thing about Jared’s failing business venue of 666 Fifth Avenue, him being related to Trump and the whole AntiChrist thing aren’t being discussed? There has to be more out there that can parallel these relations.
I don’t hate many people, but I hate Trump - he will get us all killed.
Let's be real about the jobs report. No doubt it is a good number, its always good when there are more jobs in the market, however (yes there is always a however when it comes to Trump's boasting) 209,000 jobs and 4.3% unemployment it isnt as spectacular as Trump is making it.
209,000 jobs added, mind you in June it was 222,000 (an average of 167,000 on average for 2017- which is less than Obama average last year at this time) It is also important to note where the majority of those jobs came from (not mining BTW)
53,000 in food service/drinking places (low wage jobs)
49,000 business professional
39,000 in health care
https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf
Unemployment at 4.3% is a great place - let us not forget that when Obama posted the same research numbers Trump referred to is as "totally fiction" he insisted that Obama manufactured the numbers to show the low percentage. The info given to Trump is the same process used for Obama's numbers. Obama was actually the one who inherited the "mess" that Trump says he came into. But since the moment that Obama was able to stabilize the office the rate has been dropping every month, so for it to go down more - not surprising (and absolutely NOT because of Trump) https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000000
Statistics - dont trust in lies - do your research
REAL statistics - do your homework:
Stock Market Growth: Trump at 9.1% Obama at this time was at 22.6% - yes it is at a high - but it was rising before he got in - so the increase is only 9.1 % - note that when the market people know that their will be no restrictions in their companies, of course it will rise - it is like saying here is a bank - no punishment if you rob it -
also - keep in mind, it goes up and down all the time - it will fall lets hope it isnt a crash http://www.macrotrends.net/…/stock-market-performance-by-pr…
Jobs Growth Average - Trump 173,000 average per month Obama 200,000 average per month http://www.latimes.com/…/la-fi-trump-jobs-20170703-htmlstor…
GDP Last quarter was 2.6% - for the year 1.9%
Obama was over 2.6% 14 times in his presidency - it does fluctuate. Obama was close at or above 4% seven times - so one month at 2.6% is nothing - seriously. https://www.bea.gov/newsreleases/national/gdp/gdp_glance.htm
Real wage average growth - up 0.4% Trump average - for Obama it was 0.8% average -
https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/wage-growth
Consumer confidence was on the rise since 2009 (except last quarter!) - it probably wont decline much in the first 6 months - and it has fallen since Trump took office it is down from 85.2 to 80.5 - so keeping an eye on this one https://data.oecd.org/lea…/consumer-confidence-index-cci.htm
What you should be afraid of is HOW WE STAND WITH THE WORLD - America first might seem great to you - but we are on a planet - and everything will go down if lose our standing - We cannot grow financially (or in any way) if the rest of the world cuts us off - and we have gone down - BIGLY

One man, Scott Mednick had enough with his Republican acquaintances and penned this powerful response:
"I am surprised you would wish suffering upon me. That, of course, is your right, I suppose. I do not wish harm on anyone. Your statement seems to continue the 'US v THEM' mentality. The election is over. It is important to get past campaigning and campaign rhetoric and get down to what is uniting, not dividing and what is best for ALL Americans.
There will never be a President who does everything to everyone's liking. There are things President Obama (and President Clinton) did that I do not like and conversely there are things I can point to that the Presidents Bush did that I agree with. So I am not 100% in lock step with the outgoing President but have supported him and the overall job he did.
And, if you recall, during the Presidential Campaign back in 2008 the campaign was halted because of the "historic crisis in our financial system." Wall Street bailout negotiations intervened in the election process. The very sobering reality was that there likely could be a Depression and the world financial markets could collapse. The United States was losing 800,000 jobs a month and was poised to lose at least 10 million jobs the first year once the new President took office. We were in an economic freefall. So let us recall that ALL of America was suffering terribly at the beginning of Obama's Presidency.
But I wanted to look back over the last 8 years and ask you a few questions. Since much of the rhetoric before Obama was elected was that he would impose Sharia Law, Take Away Your Guns, Create Death Panels, Destroy the Economy, Impose Socialism and, since you will agree that NONE of this came to pass, I was wondering: Why have you suffered so?
So let me ask: Gays and Lesbians can now marry and enjoy the benefits they had been deprived of. Has this caused your suffering?
When Obama took office, the Dow was 6,626. Now it is 19,875. Has this caused your suffering?
We had 82 straight months of private sector job growth – the longest streak in the history of the United States. Has this caused your suffering?
Especially considering where the economy was when he took over, an amazing 11.3 million new jobs were created under President Obama (far more than President Bush). Has this caused your suffering?
Obama has taken Unemployment from 10% down to 4.7%. Has this caused your suffering?
Homelessness among US Veterans has dropped by half. Has this caused your suffering?
Obama shut down the US secret overseas prisons. Has this caused your suffering?
President Obama has created a policy for the families of fallen soldiers to have their travel paid for to be there when remains are flown home. Has this caused your suffering?
We landed a rover on Mars. Has this caused your suffering?
He passed the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention Act. Has this caused your suffering?
Uninsured adults has decreased to below 10%: 90% of adults are insured – an increase of 20 Million Adults. Has this caused your suffering?
People are now covered for pre-existing conditions. Has this caused your suffering?
Insurance Premiums increased an average of $4,677 from 2002-2008, an increase of 58% under Bush. The growth of these insurance premiums has gone up $4,145 – a slower rate of increase. Has this caused your suffering?
Obama added Billions of dollars to mental health care for our Veterans. Has this caused your suffering?
Consumer confidence has gone from 37.7 to 98.1 during Obama's tenure. Has this caused your suffering?
He passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. Has this caused your suffering?
His bi-annual Nuclear Summit convinced 16 countries to give up and destroy all their loose nuclear material so it could not be stolen. Has this caused your suffering?
He saved the US Auto industry. American cars sold at the beginning of his term were 10.4M and upon his exit 17.5M. Has this caused your suffering?
The deficit as a percentage of the GDP has gone from 9.8% to 3.2%. Has this caused your suffering?
The deficit itself was cut by $800 Billion Dollars. Has this caused your suffering?
Obama preserved the middle class tax cuts. Has this caused your suffering?
Obama banned solitary confinement for juveniles in federal prisons. Has this caused your suffering?
He signed Credit Card reform so that rates could not be raised without you being notified. Has this caused your suffering?
He outlawed Government contractors from discriminating against LGBT persons. Has this caused your suffering?
He doubled Pell Grants. Has this caused your suffering?
Abortion is down. Has this caused your suffering?
Violent crime is down. Has this caused your suffering?
He overturned the scientific ban on stem cell research. Has this caused your suffering?
He protected Net Neutrality. Has this caused your suffering?
Obamacare has extended the life of the Medicare insurance trust fund (will be solvent until 2030). Has this caused your suffering?
President Obama repealed Don't Ask Don't Tell. Has this caused your suffering?
He banned torture. Has this caused your suffering?
He negotiated with Syria to give up its chemical weapons and they were destroyed. Has this caused your suffering?
Solar and Wind Power are at an all time high. Has this caused your suffering?
High School Graduation rates hit 83% – an all time high. Has this caused your suffering?
Corporate profits are up by 144%. Has this caused your suffering?
He normalized relations with Cuba. Has this caused your suffering?
Reliance on foreign oil is at a 40 year low. Has this caused your suffering?
US Exports are up 28%. Has this caused your suffering?
He appointed the most diverse cabinet ever. Has this caused your suffering?
He reduced the number of troops in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Has this caused your suffering?
Yes, he killed Osama Bin Laden and retrieved all the documents in his possession for analysis. Perhaps THIS caused your suffering?
From an objective standpoint it would appear that the last eight years have seen some great progress and we were saved from a financial collapse. Things are not perfect. Things can always be better. We are on much better footing now than we were in 2008.
I look forward to understanding what caused you to suffer so much under Obama these last eight years
Rights are rights, and they should be afforded to all
Some people just refuse to try to understand the point behind what is happening. They close their eyes and ears and refuse to listen to what is being said. Just because you feel your life is satisfactory where it is and you dont care that some people are being completely mistreated, doesnt mean that it isnt happening.
You have the right to ignore it, that is your choice. The reality is the rest of the world cares about what is happening. They care that people are being mistreated. They care that rights are not equal for everyone.
So you go ahead and pretend that what you have is what they have - the rest of us will gladly help the people who are being mistreated and disrespected. We will do this, so that when you are in this situation, you wont have to feel how they feel.
In the meantime, try to put yourself in their shoes and try to realize that your perfect life doesnt apply to everyone else's, no matter how much they try, and they do try.
