Yes, this.

He hasn't even taken office yet, and it's already a train wreck.

I could go on, but it's suffice to say that his coke-induced energy fit is not rolling the ball in the right direction.

His impetuousness is going to be a problem, especially given how many similar personalities are coming into power around the world right now. The older and more experienced I become, the more I realize that taking a deep breath and doing nothing is sometimes the best course of action in the midst of a crisis. That takes a mature sense of discernment, though, something it's becoming increasingly clear that Donald Trump lacks.

This was all the State of Indiana and Pense. The state has been meeting with Carrier for months. It's a state deal. Trump didn't do crap.

I agree. I felt like a dark cloud had lifted when I found out she lost. There was not a single straw of optimism to grasp onto with Hilary. You couldn't even say she is less scary dealing with foreign leaders because she has proven that she sucks at that. The Middle East blew up under her leadership.

So it's good to give a different perspective on it, which you won't get with those that have benefited as special interest groups that have financial stakes to lose such as the media and entertainment industry.

Maybe because he IS doing badly Mikelee. Myghost's list is pretty good.

Agree entirely, criticism comes easy solutions are more difficult. He should wait until he is in a position of responsibility before he gets into foreign affairs.

Must watch video on why Trump (or anyone who overthrows the liberals) is hopefully going to be awesome
Very scary what has happened to Europe and how close we were to becoming that -- let's pray Trump and/or his people watch this video and really gets it.
