Half of half . . . About 25%, considering that only about half of the eligible voters went to the polls.Spiritual_Chaos said:Half(!) of your country voted for this guy. Have fun.
Nice that he started out with flat out lying in his first speech as president.

Can we at least look at this with an open mind? First of all it's published by the Washington Post. The WP was a biased Clinton advocate pre-election, first of all.dignin said:
In #2., everything written was fine until you came to this part: "... regarding media that report the truth as fake news". FFS, if anyone believes that the media is an innocent victim in all of this and that they're transparently telling the truth much of the time? WE really are being fools. And it just goes to show that we ARE more divisive; if you're not fully believing the media, you must be believing Trump. We KNOW that neither is innocent here. Don't believe everything you read. Question it all.
#1 just gets us all even less information to go on, since questions won't be answered. This is a tyrannical move, not sure why anyone's surprised. But the media have treated him up til now with so much free publicity and camera love that he should be thanking them... Instead his self-loving ass thinks he answers to no one except a reflection of himself. Totalitarianism anyone?
#3 is to keep everyone asleep. And yes the media plays a part in that too, and have been for quite some time already. Being privatized and owned by only six corporations, The mainstream media ensures it. So, we take sides here, or we wake up and think critically and independently and DONT take sides, but insist that we stick together and not let these institutions control our lives, who are attempting to keep us divided.
The media is not to be fully trusted, don't fall for it, no matter how much we loathe Trump.Post edited by Free on0 -
I'm no Patriots fan but I desperately want to see President Trump congratulate Tom Brady at the White House. He had a MAGA hat in his locker early!0

A friend wrote this on FB:
""Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, OR OF THE PRESS; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
- First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America
Why is the Press included in that Amendment?
Why is the Press the ONLY commercial undertaking, the ONLY private enterprise, the ONLY profession, called out in the Constitution and given an enumerated right?
Why?
The Press wasn't granted this right so they could show you pictures of Britney Spears' pantiless crotch getting out of a limo, or so you could read about the exploits of the mutant Bat Boy, or so some foreign-born billionaire asshole could shove his hysterical paranoid conservative bullshit down your throat every day, or so some conspiracy theorist could vomit his mental illness all over America.
The Press was granted freedom as an enumerate right specifically because it is their duty to be the watchdog of liberty.
Conway: Trump administration will "rethink" relationship with the press
It is NOT government's job to determine its relationship to the press.
Let me repeat that: IT IS NOT GOVERNMENT'S JOB TO DETERMINE ITS RELATIONSHIP TO THE PRESS
It is the Press's DUTY to hold government to account.
This statement, that Trump determines his relationship to the press AND THEREFORE TO YOU, CITIZENS, is bullshit. Utter and complete bullshit and it shows you EXACTLY who this guy is and the kind of fascists he's managed to surround himself with.
This is how tyranny is born. Every. Single. Time.
If the Press allows this president, ANY PRESIDENT, to set the narrative, then they have utterly failed in their duty to the Republic."0 -

So what do people think of Trump pulling the TPP? This seemed to have people against it on both sides.0
-
I don't know....I think the argument for TPP is that it creates a more stable atmosphere. Trump wants to do trade "deals" individually which, in my opinion, seems to be a little sloppy.bootlegger10 said:So what do people think of Trump pulling the TPP?
