Trump’s First Year Was Even Worse Than Feared

[theHawk]

Grit your teeth. Persevere. Just a few more days and this awful, rotten, no-good, ridiculous, rancorous, sordid, disgraceful year in the civic life of our nation will be over. Here's hoping that we all — particularly special counsel Robert S. Mueller III — have a better 2018.

Many of us began 2017 with the consoling thought that the Donald Trump presidency couldn't possibly be as bad as we feared. It turned out to be worse.

Did you ever think you would hear a president use the words "very fine people" to describe participants in a torch-lit rally organized by white supremacists, neo- Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan? Did you ever think you would hear a U.S. ambassador to the United Nations thuggishly threaten that she would be "taking names" of countries that did not vote on a General Assembly resolution the way she wanted? Did you ever think the government of the world's biggest military and economic power would reject not just science but also empiricism itself, preferring to use made-up "alternative facts" as the basis for major decisions?

We knew that Trump was narcissistic and shallow, but on Inauguration Day it was possible to at least hope he was self-aware enough to understand the weight that now rested on his shoulders, and perhaps grow into the job. He did not. If anything, he has gotten worse.

Here are the reasons why:

My work heer is done, and I would like to thank "reasonable" for helping secure an even greater dim loss in 2018. Kudos to you sir!

Trump’s aides have warned him a “ blood bath “ is coming in Nov 2018

This dope thinks he knows more.

Your butt hurt whining is funny bro.

and your ass breath hypocrisy is sad ..

in typical RW fashion $1.5 TRILLION DOLLARS got added on the deficit while Trumpdrones wiped off their chin with a big grin thanking Goldilocks.

If Clinton had done that in 11 months every dipshit RW'r would be shittin' bricks whining about how the country was doomed, and the end was near.

But it was A-OK for your hero, the obummer, to add 6 to 8 trillion to the debt for nothing at all. Hypocrite much?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
absolutely the weakest argument in the history of mankind ..

Obama did it so Trump can do it too.


if thats not the epitome of hypocrisy nothing is.

THE END.

The hypocrite is you sunshine. The 8 trillion that obummer added to the debt did nothing but weaken us as a nation. The debt that trump is adding is already boosting the economy, and that will pay the debt that trump added, and even some of the waste that obummer added, down.

What I would really like to see is an audit of all the money obummer wasted and see where it all went. How many of his cronies are now billionaires thanks to his criminal activity. The world wonders...

/----/ Learn how to read polling information, you big Dope. Or maybe you do and hope no one catches on. The CNN Poll was conducted by SSRS December 14-17 among a random national sample of 1,001 adults reached on landlines or cellphones by a live interviewer. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.8 percentage points, it is larger for subgroups.
Random adult sampling is the least accurate method but is fast and inexpensive to do. Mostly used to create news headlines.

And they no doubt have their selected people that they love to sample as they already know how they'll answer. Those were the same idiots who helped tell us that the shrilary was a shoe in...

Moron: Youre lying Trump signed an order to let Big Coal pollute..Show me a link.

Me: 8 links

Moron : they’re only opinion by the left wing media

Me: link saying the same thing from Fox

Moron: Fox is liberal.

I rest my case.

You: 8 links to unproved bullshit called opinions.

How about you post what EO actually says, instead of posting opinions about the EO itself?

7 links proving what these assholes didn’t know about their own fuhrer.

Notice not one link debunking it.

All they can do is cry FAKE NEWS.

Ha ha ha ha

And yet you posted nothing

8 documentations proving what your bastard is doing to the environment.
0 for you debunking it.

Dude, pull one sentence paragraph out of any of those links that demonstrates pollution is now allowed

Obama inherited a economy in the deepest recession in history. He cut deficits by 60% and saved the american economy. Trump is riding Obamas economic coat-tails, evidenced by a 24% rise in the DOW in Trumps first 11 months, that is actually pitiful against Obama's 29% rise over his first 11 months.

He did nothing but make the misery last longer. His cure for unemployment was to cause full time jobs to plummet in favor of multiple part time jobs that didn't pay as well as they jobs he destroyed, and didn't have benefits. You silly people need to get past what the assholes said, and what they actually did. You can't seem to understand that there is a difference between slogans, and actions.

First of all, he has no power to overturn the law. No law was changed.

Trump's EO is overturning Barry's EO that was putting additional burden on coal producers and forcing them to close or bankrupt. They're still required to act within existing laws.

Do you want to return to 1960's regulations that allowed DDT, PCB's, Dioxins, and heavy metals to be released into the environment unchecked.

The recession was over by June 2009.

What did he do between Jan 20, 2009 and June 2009 to end the "deepest recession in history"?

Under Obama unemployment went from a peak of 10.3% to 4.5%
The Dow went from 8,200 to 19,000
Deficits got cut by 60%
The auto industry was saved, and the recession ended.
Stop the bull shit.

Hyperbole much? The laws that prevent that are in place. Nothing that trump does can remove them. The only thing that trump has done is reverse ILLEGAL EO's that obama wrote. Do you understand the difference?

Yes. The DDT ban was one of the dumbest acts ever.
It has resulted in 10s of millions of deaths in Africa.
Shame!!

When you get a chance, let me know how long was that awesome, now overturned law protecting our great nation?

Why would we do that? Congress hasn’t passed anything to do with regulations since obummer. That would be silly to have congress do that

Which is why Trump gutted the enforcement arm of the EPA. Which has lost over 700 employees since Trump took office. They have fewer people than they did under Ronald Reagan.

Grit your teeth. Persevere. Just a few more days and this awful, rotten, no-good, ridiculous, rancorous, sordid, disgraceful year in the civic life of our nation will be over. Here's hoping that we all — particularly special counsel Robert S. Mueller III — have a better 2018.

Many of us began 2017 with the consoling thought that the Donald Trump presidency couldn't possibly be as bad as we feared. It turned out to be worse.

Did you ever think the government of the world's biggest military and economic power would reject not just science but also empiricism itself, preferring to use made-up "alternative facts" as the basis for major decisions?

We knew that Trump was narcissistic and shallow, but on Inauguration Day it was possible to at least hope he was self-aware enough to understand the weight that now rested on his shoulders, and perhaps grow into the job. He did not. If anything, he has gotten worse.

And the number of people actually in the workplace decreased to its lowest number in 40 years. It's easy to get a lower unemployment number when you decide to stop counting them as the obummer admin was fond of doing. Add to that the fact that the average net worth for American citizens dropped to its lowest level since the 1970's under obummer and your statements are nothing more than the force fed propaganda that you spew with regularity.

It says a lot that obummer stated that 1.4-1.5% GDP growth is all that Americans could ever hope to enjoy ever again, and trump comes in and in less than a year blows obummers regs away, and lo and behold the GDP rises to levels not seen in decades and consumer confidence rises to a level not seen in seventeen years.

Face it dude, you are worshiping a failure. Why you worship that failure I have no idea, maybe your ego can't take the hit, but the facts are now well known.
