Where is the President?

[Mac1958]

Had a big meeting today with law enforcement folks from around the country.

You really should get info from someone other than that Madcow dude.

Why is he afraid to speak to the American people?

He did. Try to keep up, Dummy.

I must have missed it. How did he address racism, the core problem of all of this?

Thanks in advance.

What "racism" would that be?

Thanks in advance.

Are you one of those here who says that racism no longer exists?

 

[Cecilie1200]

You've probably seen the poll that said 80% say that things are "out of control".

Where is the President?

Outside of threatening to use the military on protesters and holding someone's Bible upside down in front of a church with a stern look on his face, what is he doing to heal this country?

Where is his leadership, for all Americans?

Anyone?

Where is he ? He is probably saying the same thing about real American's right now. Otherwise, where are the sane and real American's, and not instead these anti-Americans who are trying to seize power by any means nessesary ???

I mean everytime I see these anti-Americans open their mouths in front of a camera, it just defies all logic and reasoning when hear the things that they have to say. Talk about nut jobs, defund or get rid of the police ???? Rotflmbo. You have got to be kidding me.

1) We're at home, protecting our families and avoiding the screaming, violent savages running through the streets.

2) Even if we weren't, the media never interviews us.

 

[Mac1958]

Good Trumpsters just make shit up as they go.

Havent you argued for free trade from china

Quite the opposite, I've argued for replacing China as a trade partner: Band Aids, Borders, Burritos & Bejing

Good gawd, you people.

Disparaging minorities on a daily basis is the first thing that comes to mind.

 

[Cecilie1200]

This stuff is part of the desperate left's manufactured stories about nothing. Seinfield must have gone to work for CNN. First the crazy left couldn't stand anymore of the President's public appearances and now they are demanding more of him. In the meantime the presumed democrat nominee is locked in his basement.

Yeah, well, they also want to scream about how he's a dictator - he's HITLER! - right before bellyaching that he's not seizing control of everything and micromanaging it.

 

[Cecilie1200]

What do you want him to do?

He could get on TV and give a speech.

I can't believe I had to say that.

Holy crap.

He did. Unless you failed to note it...

Link?

And is he done? Is that it?

Where is your link to your claim. Oh, and I’ll be glad to post his speech for ya, if you want. Oh, and by the way, I’m sure much to your chagrine, he set up a commission late Jan for finding ways law enforcement can regain the trust of the citizens. Bet ya didn’t know it, cause the lame msm probably didn’t mention it.

Presidential Commission on Law Enforcement and the Administration of Justice

www.justice.gov

A snippet-
Therefore, we are establishing this Presidential Commission on Law Enforcement to study crime—how we can reduce it and how we can restore the public confidence in law enforcement to its rightful place. The Commission will examine the following:

How do certain social ills such as mental illness, substance abuse, and homelessness affect the ability of law enforcement to police?
How can we improve officer recruitment, training, and retention?
What are the major issues confronting rural and tribal law enforcement?
What are the major issues affecting the physical safety and mental health of police officers?
How can federal grant programs aide state, local, and tribal law enforcement?
What novel issues and criminal threats have arisen from new technologies?
What is the cause of diminished respect for law enforcement and the laws they enforce, and how does it affect both police and public safety?
What role can commercial business and community development organizations play in cultivating safe communities?
What methodologies, techniques, and targeted deterrence can be employed to reduce crime?
How can we integrate education, employment, social services, and public health services to reduce crime and ease the burden on law enforcement?

Thanks for the bullet points. So it's all about law enforcement and programs and technology and not about the racism that still exists in America.

Could you point out where he discussed how black people feel about their daily lives, why they might be frustrated beyond white people's understanding, or what it's like being pulled over SEVERAL times for no good reason -- as Republican Senator Tim Scott has described?

You couldn't have provided a better example. You folks are just not paying attention. Thank you.

Uh, that was about the commission formed back in Jan, not from the shooting. He actually recognized something needed done and started a commission to try to find solutions before this happened.
He also immediately sent in the doj and fbi.
And you weren’t aware from your sources either, were you, that the administration is weighing plans for a national listening tour in Black communities, to engage with and hear people, and putting together a task force. He is also looking at ways to start a national dialogue to help bring to light problems with racism in our country and how to solve them, rather than continuing what has not been working.

He also stated this, which you obviously did not hear-
On Saturday, Trump called the death of George Floyd “a grave tragedy” that has filled Americans “with horror, anger and grief.”
“It should never have happened,”

The guy could throw himself at your feet and you would still find fault.
More for your closed mind so that others might actually see he has been trying to work in the right direction.

From the same document-
Civil rights organizations, civic leaders, defense bar associations, victims’ rights organizations, and community organizations, should and will help this important mission. They will have opportunities to provide advice, counsel and input to the Commission in its study of the relevant issues and solutions.

So Trump wants to make certain civic rights are upheld. But I guess you need the word Black in there, because you see it as a black and white issue, not a human rights issue.

Now for some other things he has done to help minorities.
The First Step Act which has seen people such as Alice Marie Johnson, Taneesha Bannister, Matthew Charles, along with more than 3000 others. Another 1700+ have had their sentences reduced. It also revised sentencing guidelines.
They have also applied the Second Step Act, under a previous version from 2007, to help with their re-entry into society, with job training, and much more-
Transitional services to assist in the reintegration of offenders into the community, including-

• Educational, literacy, and vocational, services and the transitional jobs strategy;
• Substance use disorder treatment and services;
• Coordinated supervision and services for offenders, including physical health care and comprehensive housing and mental health care;
• Family services​

Funding for historically Black colleges, improving the economy which has reduced unemployment for minorities and restoring dignity to those that want to be able to feed their families themselves, tax cuts that have helped minorities

Bloomberg - Are you a robot?

He has created opportunity zones in minority neighborhoods so it is easier them to start their own businesses without stifling regulations. $10 billion in funding for minority owned businesses.

He has directed more than $200 million a year to technology education grants for women and minorities.
Public housing is being cleaned up and made safer. Contractors
must comply with the training requirements included in their contracts and implementing valid apprenticeship programs for residents of the projects. At the completion of the training participants have a skill and are able to leave public housing.
Lowest Black unemployment.

These are just a few of the things Trump has done. Think what could have been done if the Dems had tried to work with Trump rather than against for 3 years.

I'm sure you're very pleased.

Whatever you do, don't concern yourself with the lives, experiences and perspective of others.

Just focus on the stuff he does that you agree with.

Like you did, when you tried to talk about racism and could only come up with "getting pulled over a lot"? Yeah, you're ALL about the lives and experiences of others . . . as long as they stay "others" and in their place.

I do love irony.

That explains a lot about your posting style. Of course, so do abject ignorance and schizophrenia.

You haven't a clue. That Bible belonged to the President's mother. Idiot.

Prove it. Just do some research I did and it doesn't.

He was using a bible as a prop, insulting religion.
Who owns that bible is irrelevant.

He was demonstrating his solidarity with Christians. That is not an insult. Your hysteria is not called for.

What Bible Verse was he preaching?

He was not preaching any bible verses, that I am aware of.


He was, as I pointed out, demonstrating his solidarity with Christians. That is not an insult. If anything it is a sign of respect.

Your inability to address what I said honestly, that was you admitting that you know I am right.

real christians - like the preacher - knew he is a fraud & that whole act was pure bullshit.

There is no reason to believe that he is not against burning churches, or that he stands with Christians in not having their places of worship burned.


YOur hate, has made you delusional and crazy.

he's against burning churches cause he needs the thumper vote. there have been mosques destroyed over the last 3 years; i don't recall yer chosen one doing a photo op with a quran in his tiny hands - do you?

why did he feel it was ok to destroy a mosque against the geneva convention protocol?

uh-huh.

Most normal Americans, and even the vast majority of NOT normal Americans, are going to be against burning churches.


That you feel a need to imagine ulterior motives in the President being against burning churches, is you being crazy.


I don't know what you are talking about with your talk of "mosques" or the "geneva convention".


Try to be less crazy.

donny doesn't give a damn about any house of worship burning down unless it serves a purpose. think critically for once - he did it for a self serving purpose.

Seems unlikely. Most Americans support Freedom of Religion. We are indoctrinated into such beliefs, from an early age. It is unlikely that Trump avoided such teachings, or that he rebelled against it.


Why would he? It is not like he has any reason to hate Christians. Why would he NOT be in favor of their right to peacefully assemble and worship the way they see fit?


Your fantasy of him as some sort of Supervillain, is fine. Until you trying getting us to play along. We don't share your silly litlle fantasies. Stop trying to include us in your games of pretend.

The guy can’t fix anything, he has probably given up trying. His followers are good with constant failure.

yep - just like the wall.

first donny sold them on the whole 'mexico will pay for the wall'
they swallowed his load.

then it was 'mexico will reimburse us for the wall'
they swallowed again.

then he said he take money earmarked for things like military housing & schools
they swallowed yet again.

they love donny & donny loves them long time.

you are an idiot.

spin why he started out with mexico is paying for the wall to they will reemburse us to an EO stripping cash from the military to pay for it.

c'mon....

do better.

 

[whitehall]

Trump campaign rallies will resume next Fri. in Ok. and continue for the next couple of weeks. Feel better? Meanwhile democrats seem desperate to keep old Joe in the basement until November.

 

[ABikerSailor]

Only 4+ million foreclosures, divorces, families breaking up.
Good times!
And Obama ran on MAGA and didn't deliver.

Look! You're boring me into a coma.
Just start a Thread and tell us about your life so I can perhaps care.
Or simply admit you hate the letter "R" or have a Trespasser in your life

Obama ran on MAGA and didn't deliver? Are you that stupid? TRUMP is the one that ran on MAGA.

Obama's campaign was Hope and Change.

You Trumptards can't get anything right, can you?

No, that sort of simplistic blanket statement I leave to simpletons like you.

I'm one of the ones who says institutional, systemic racism doesn't exist. I would never try to ignore the existence of the racists and bigots who stake their whole lives around insisting that it does.

 

[basquebromance]

"

Conservatives think they’re so clever to point out that all of the cities being turned into war zones are run by Democrats. Yes, that’s true.

On the other hand, your country is burning. Might you want to give 10 seconds of thought to how to prevent even more cities — and states — from falling under these pernicious leaders?

mac were have you been?......we havent had a leader in this country so far in this century....and there is none on the horizon.....

Hard to argue that, but you might even have to go all the way back to Ike to look for real leadership.

back to a normal real (R) who was pro union, had a 90% tax rate where the middle class was strong & healthy, AND warned against the military industrial complex.

that just shows how fucked the GOP really is today.

the democrats are just as fucked up today....they were different 50 years ago too....both parties are the bane of this country....

they have deviated form their ideology, no doubt - but it's a false equivalency.

the blending of religion & politics was the start of the transformation of the (R) party into the freakshow fundy extremists they have become today. the (D)s haven't blown themselves into the stratosphere anywhere like that.

no they just have moved so far left that they have become just another freakshow themselves........

no they haven't. there's a faction that's uber liberal - but most are corporate dems & that's where they lost their way. they forgot the working man & donny slithered in & faked his way into their hearts; the rust belt anyway. the that gave the (D)s the wake up call they needed to reconnect. why do you think biden & not bernie or liz warren got the nomination?

of course you dont think they have.....you might be one of them.....i aint a party person i can see how both of them are......why cant you?...

i am a center left indy; but i also know a false equivalency when i see one.

why can't you?

Just because you keep saying it, doesn't make it so.

just cause you claimed i denied the holocaust, doesn't make it so.

but it does make you a jew who demeaned himself & his people to score a troll.

oh & it makes you a fucking liar too.

you're dismissed.

I had a choice between a candidate that was promising to be tougher on border security and one that was talking about amnesty.


I went with the one that was not an anti-American piece of shit.


Making Mexico pay for it, was never a requirement nor did I assume that he would make it a priority or believe that it was a done deal.

What I wanted, and what I voted for, was more border security.


YOur assumption that because we supported him on his policy, that we "swallowed his load" is just you being a ****.

Just in case you haven't read the Constitution, the states Mayors and Governors are the ones responsible for order in their states. I know you neo-Marxists would like to see the president send the Army and Marine Corps to cities across the nation, so that you could then accuse him of being a tyrant, but it's the states that have to gain control; something the left isn't inclined to do, for they want to see chaos and destruction, in the hopes of dividing this nation.

so donny DIDN'T say that mexico would pay for the wall?

so donny DIDN'T say they would reimburse us when they said to vete a la mierda?

so donny DIDN'T sign an EO designating funds earmarked to the militray for housing & schools to instead be directed to his silly wall?

<pfffft> i could show you links - but you'll ignore them just like when i gave you links on this thread, with a preacher telling you exactly why donny went to st johns .... & i gave you several links showing that antifa in all likelihood is not a part of the destruction that has occurred - but rather white supreeeeemacists & wack job trumpanzees.
