Hillary Lost... right? It's time for the GOP to #MAGA! Why are you waiting? (Page 5): You're almost correct with the exception that I don't have any official who is "my man." I try to...

Anyway, I really like the idea, here.
It's perfectly OK for your man to do it, but the other guy can't, because he's not your man.
Politics, neatly summed up.

You're almost correct with the exception that I don't have any official who is "my man." I try to be quite analytic and judge based on performance even though I am a long time Repub.

The 2016 election did not produce an Electoral College 'landslide.' Trump's win was by one of the lowest vote margin in all of the history of US presidential elections. Check the actual number through US election history.

What?
Did you miss the fact that, under Obama, the national debt almost doubled to $20 Trillion?
Spend it here, spend it there, the end result is the same.
That debt is a major deficit in the economy.
I think what you're trying to say is a budget deficit, yes? Of course, with no budget, it's kinda hard to have an actual deficit.

An as in similar situations we had to spend our way out of a recession each time. Even under your hero raygun.

Here a nutter fact.

Congress present the budget .

Now WHO spends the money. The president or Congress. I'll be waiting to hear this one.

I'm sure the expense of our ill conceived war had nothing to do with that $20T?

So your sources fully back my post, thank you for confirming my numbers.

And to think, he won by a larger margin than John F. Kennedy, Jimmy Carter, and Thomas Jefferson. All because of the corrupted efforts of the DNC and the pompous arrogant campaign put forth by Hillary, Trump is our Prez., Hillary really thought she had it bought, lock, stock, and barrel, so she failed to work where she needed to work for the votes.

I was hoping Trump would be on his way out by now but he keeps stepping in it, drawing more ppl into his landfill that he'll keep Mueller busy for years. He's crooked as hell and everyone knows it now. The man is toxic, everyone he touches is infected with his corruption. His two younger children would be wise to stay away from him. (Not get into anything resembling business when/if of age.)

No, stupid, he is not making excuses but when you have the opposition party attempting to destroy the very institution of the American presidency and the country along with it then it matters you sanctimonious prick. As stated before, you pricks that hate Trump, hate him more than you love this great country. That is a problem that will eventually eat you alive. The Democrat party is in total freefall and that is all you have.

It is not just the Dems or the Reps destroying the Presidency. It is, in fact, the President himself. He is incapable of carrying a thought, modify if in subtle ways to improve it, and then present it to the public. There will be no positive to come out of his Presidency.

And this from a Conservative!

So, now2\, when faced with facts, there was actually a deficit?
Obama signed the spending bills, regardless of any rationalizing for why the House and Democrat controlled senate sent them to him. And many of those spending bills, while legally started in the House, actually came from the White House. or were instead spending increases by administration-controlled agencies.
Obama was far from the wonder worker you seem to think he was.
