We have a sense of humour. That's one reason we're surviving this idiot running the country. I've just heard him say we're enjoying our freedom, including the second amendment. The second amendment was never repealed - and I know Democrats who have guns. IP: Logged |

I guess the smug refusal to share is part of the Trumpettes sense of humour? Gotta love the way you always know but can't explain😉IP: Logged |

Yeah i love when he claims to have accomplished more than any other president.. considering the near zero legislation passed in 7 months. Hint: Memiranda and EOs are not "legislation" they are "execution" 😁 get it?Considering the number of things hes claimed credit for that are direct results of Obama's budgets, deals etc What happened to the 100 days? That was a joke too? Or maybe he had himself confused with FDR who got 15 major bills passed in 100 days in 1933? 🤣🤣🤣 IP: Logged |

President Trump has signed 41 bills into law.Math is definitely not the long suit of leftists. Welcome to the match challenged bubble world of unreality leftists inhabit.  IP: Logged |

The statement i challenged was his boast that he has,signed more than any president at this stage.. which is rubbish. And quantity is different from quality/importance.. at least to Rational people who don't see everything in terms of Ratings. I am not "MATCH" challenged.. but if you want to split hairs the MATH fails you, not me 😉 This is from June and so are the comparisons and his claim to fame. It was obvious to most people that he was being ignorant and / or boasting when he promised a great many things for the first 100 days, but he cant seem to let go of the need to be the Best/Most/First in the eyes of others http://www.npr.org/2017/06/23/533840991/despite-claims-to-contrar y-trump-has-signed-no-major-laws-5-months-in Now how about that nat'l debt claim..anyone want to attempt to justify that? And do remember to bring your sense of humour😉

"Signed more" is a statement based on quantity. It doesn't require a math lesson to figure out. What you need is an English lesson. Quality is subjective. The left isn't going to like any bill President Trump signs.IP: Logged |

No Randall. It isn't. Is there any point in supplying links with relevant facts here? At least three RECENT presidents had signed 40 or more by june of their first year. (Carter 52) Trump had only signed 38 at that time when he first made this claim.So even if you're focusing purely on numbers and not substance, he has not signed the MOST.. either in June not now. His own words on this= total ignorance or outright lies. Take your pick IP: Logged |

NBC News Jun 13 2017"In his first 100 days, Trump signed more bills into law than all but two presidents in the last 84 years; since that point, he's continued to add to that number, signing a total of 38 bills, according to GovTrack (actually, four more than he bragged Monday when he said it was more than 34.)" http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/fact-check-trump-s ays-he-passed-more-bills-most-presidents-n771116 IP: Logged |

quote: Originally posted by Catalina: Actually i believe all the bills trying to legalize running down protestors have been forwarded by Repubs. Correct me if im wrong (with an example please) Not long ago it was the "rightist" press that was trying to make all the nasties out to be on the left. Did you know that a leftist was shot dead by aMilo supporter while trying to break up a fight at one of his gigs? And Fox is busy criticizing Obama for speaking too hastily this week.. tho all he did was wrote Mandela's "no one is born hating.." which is very apt. Its time to admit both - all- sides are more interested in scoring points than sorting anything out out or even coexisting. All of which gives the law and order freaks an excuse for more armed police on the streets. More censorship. More control. Come on people... you don't have to smile but recognize your brother. It is possible to be too cynical and that is NOT the opposite of "asleep".
Yep. Divide and conquer. With all the knowledge of the divide and conquer game and the Illuminati out there, it's amazing that so many are still falling for it. There are WAY more of us than them, and if we're united, they're no match for us, hence the divide and conquer game by manipulating the left and the right against each other by way of extreme partisan politics. We have to stop falling for these traps, NOW. The sooner we do, the less chaotic it will be when everything inevitably hits the fan. And the fact that more people are awakening to the truth is why the Trump administration is trying so hard to suppress freedom of speech right now. IP: Logged |

Sure if you think naming war memorials etc are markers of industry and achievement.If you think mere numbers are a benchmark. There seems to be some confusion about how long those 38 bills took. 100 days or 6 months. In June he had still signed only 39 But by june of their first years 3 presidents since 1976 signed more than he had in equal time And FDR signed not 15 but 76 in his first 100 days. The fact is its still a lie. If were kind we can call it ignorance but ignorance has little place in the Oval office IP: Logged |

I am very pleased of all of President Trump's accomplishments, including the SCOTUS nomination and some great EOs. I'm confident that tax reform will happen, and healthcare was just delayed a bit longer.IP: Logged |

Your prerogative of course. That was not the point however. The point is we dint need the press to twist his own words ... which they do, I agree...and not everybody who objects to them is being brainwashed. He twists the truth himself and calling it a joke doesn't apply in most cases😉Do you think DT actually doesn't understand that he has no claim to reduction of the national debt? And no basis for blaming Obama for the huge debt left by the previous admin either? Do you see that the press on both sides run with their version of the story and that singling out any one of them is propaganda? This is partly confirmation bias and partly playing to what they think their base wants.. and partly attempting to influence.. but somehow DT only calls certain outlets "fake". They aren't any more fake than any others.. they are just more likely to cast him in less than glorious light IP: Logged |

And your preferred media do the same with Obama and the left in general. Once again.. why no objection from you or DT? Why the pretense that only the msm/left do this? Since they all do this at least sometimes..what is the real criteria for "fake"?IP: Logged |

And your preferred media do the same with Obama and the left in general. Please read the sentence above and then your answer... is this cognitive dissonance? Or are you "joking"? Maybe it's not the media at all but your reading of it that's twisting things. IP: Logged |
