    He doesn't party -- no drinking, no smoking, and no illegal drugs; unlike the prior prez (who was really cool).

    Yeah what I meant to say was:

    Hail Trump!

    You're losing it.

    But most of us are in favor of MAGA.

    Thanks, but I'm not the one that believes 2-3M people illegally voted without actual evidence.
    Also, I am in favor of keeping America great and the notion that anyone that is opposed to Trump is not in favor of this country as a whole is laughable.

    So, the use of taxpayer dollars for the president to take a vacation is cool unless he takes a pack of Marlboros or a bottle of Glenfiddich with him?

    If that's not what you're saying, then you didn't answer the question.

    Does he ever answer questions or keep repeating the Kool-Aid rhetoric over and over? Just asking because I've noticed a lot of one and little of the other, unless you count "posting news links (regardless of dubiousness) he agrees with, while saying anything he doesn't agree with is 'biased', 'wrong', 'fake' or whatever" as answering.

    Petraeus as a potential NSA? Is this for real?!?!

    No, you were the one who was in favor of the Iran deal, yes? Because, and I'm loosely paraphrasing here, they were going to get what they wanted anyway?

    But you are correct in the fact that you don't belive that millions carried out voter fraud; which is infinitely worse than topics pertaining to a nuclear Iran.

    For the record, I'm waiting on the daily sideshow to end. So sick of this crap.

    We pay to provide security for the president no matter where he is; always have.

    Hope that helps.

    It wouldn't surprise me. This administration is an absolute joke.

    He won't appoint Petreaus. I don't think he is that dumb. It will probably be General Kellogg. Plus, no way Petreaus gets a clearance....

    I was largely in favor of the Iran deal because, it was technical in nature, but that is forced Iran to sign the IAEA Additional Protocol (something they resisted for years) and it shut down their plutonium research plant. It also capped them from producing uranium above 20% enrichment.
    I agree on your last point, as it is a sideshow at times.

    Good to know you were cool with Obama traveling as well.

    I'm cool with Trump's wife and son staying in NY so that he can finish his school year. But after that, they need to either move to DC or have their comprehensive SS detail cut off. If they don't want to stay under the same roof, give them bedrooms in Blair House.

    Trump didn't take the $400k annual salary but you're okay with him paying his own company MILLIONS of dollars for security at Trump Tower + his private club at Mar-a-lago?

    He's literally profiting from his Presidency. It's 100% unethical.

    If I was Trump, I wouldn't trust the SS and other federal agencies to protect them. There are people infiltrated everywhere who want nothing more than him to fall. Including those protecting him.

    Agreed. That's why this strikes me as "fake news". Except with Trump anything is possible.

    But also wouldn't surprise me if they are intentionally leaking BS so Trump can then go accuse the media of pushing "fake news". Certainly more than a few in the media are capable of being that easily played, especially when they let their partisanship bling their common sense.

    The above is what disgusts me more than anything so far. Trump is not holding the media accountable - he's trying to discredit them. THAT is fascism.

    What? Calling the President a Fascist?

    Let me know when you are done trolling.

    Oh, he is def sending out trail balloons and stories that are no way going to happen.
    Another example the Draft EO on the National Guard deployments.

    Well, I guess you could say Trump is the most qualified guy to know what fake news is, since he spreads it with regularity!
