I laughed out loud when I saw the thread title. Didn't even need to open the thread to see how foolish it is.


Newsweek?


All 3 pages?


I didn't even know it still existed.

Other than that, I guess the article might have some merit.
Newsweek isn't going to let facts get in the way of drumming up some business. These are the same crack journalists who actually printed up 125k 'Madam President' issues, with Hillary Clinton on the cover, prior to her loss, because they were so certain she'd win.

Ha ha... the biggest fake news story of the month... Trump has done so much it is unbelievable.. he has finally got the pipe line through.. vets can get care, ms13 kicked out, illegal immigration down. The wall started, small business owners have gotten relief from government intrusion. Just a few things.. the list is becoming endless.

Trump's positive message is bringing investors from all over the world. He has been working hard and still has time to touch down and have a rally to see the Americans who want to have a better America.. The left find it hard to swallow that Trump has many many supporters.. so many and they are not believing that fake news.. those that know the truth , know the left spreads lies and it will hurt the democratic party even more... many democrats have bailed already because of all the fake news and Russia Russia Russia..

That is because your better judgement which you don't use is telling you it is fake news.

Absolutely damning indictment of Trump's presidency to date.

I will give NewsWeek credit for trying to be fair and for throwing a few bones to Trumpers. but is is damming, and sadly all to real.

They did not embellish, they called out MSNBC as partisan etc. They gave strong quotes from supporters, but still absolutely damning. A lame duck at 6 months? I sure hope something happens, maybe Kelly with McMasters etc might be able to save this POTUS.

As such it kinda backfires imo.

I think if they'd gone with a more serious tone and not photo-shopped in Cheetos and McDonalds etc. that it would be more powerful.

As such, assuming it's even a real cover, it's pretty juvenile and doesn't make me want to read it.
I agree...It will backfire, I think--Trump supporters will see echoes of 'Deplorable' in it and perceive it as a personal attack.

Attacking Trumps foibles and mannerisms will change nothing---attack him on his wishy-washy policies, his revolving door staff and his total lack of competence. Remind his base that Trump uses them--and so far..other than sound bites--he's not delivered.

What pipe line..if you mean Keystone..it's still stalled. As a vet..I get great care..and have for over 40 years. MS13 is not kicked out..they are alive and well in America..sad to say. I would post the usual links, but we're both aware that it would make no difference to you.

You say rally..I say tired campaign stop..BTW..why would any American NEED a rally?

Also, opinions are not news--and the facts quoted are all correct..like it...or not.

I'm not one of the 'left' and I can't stand Trump..many of us in the middle..and even on the Right..can't stand Trump.
