A POTUS who instead of explaining why we needed a new health care plan, to cover people with previous conditions, we have a POTUS who explains what women will let you do to them under the right conditions.

Instead of a Noble Peace prize and a world impressed that America would actually elect a black POTUS, we get a wall that Mexico will pay for, and "thousands of Muslims" Trump said were cheering on 9/11. We get the best health care plan ever, never seen. An international trade war and now China cozying up with Russia. Instead of Michelle, we get hanky panky with porn stars and Playboy bunnies and even better, hush money paid in the $100 thousands to keep them quiet.

Not that any of this should have us wonder what else needs to be hushed...

Right, but what about the economy and our 401Ks?

I knew I shouldn't have started this thread, but I do surely miss the good old days before Trump started making America great again...
Drop the bong!

Why don't you ask your Tweeting, angry, hate filled President that question? Let us know what you find out.



Only a complete moron thinks this country is "better off" under a President who can barely get a 40% approval rating. Thankfully a majority of us are not morons, as the polling proves.



Pres. Obama brought us back from a terrible recession with 75 straight, continuous, uninterrupted months of job growth, after he was left a **** sandwich from the previous Republican President.

And the next Democrat who is President will have to clean up the disaster that is this train wreck of a President. It's the same routine every 8 years. Republicans never learn, and likely never will.

It seems that the people who never really learn that lesson are the numbskulls who keep putting republicans or those pretending to be, in office. It's not hard to understand why those from that party, as well as other sorts of criminals, would want to be in positions to loot our country for their own benefit. They are what they are, but the misinformed voters have no rational purpose for electing them.

My friend sighs deeply and rolls her eyes whenever someone mentions Trump but when I ask her pointedly why she has no clue and all she could come up with was "he lied about things".

Honestly, I've never knew that having a highly tuned bs meter would benefit me as much as it has. The only downside is having to occasionally think of my friends as idiots! At the very least if you don't feel proud to have a President who clearly and loudly proclaims his love for America then I'm not sure what to do about you.
Trump is a reality star and a ******. Do you really think he loves our country more then he loves himself. There is a reason why he is unable to bring our country together. He only goes to places where he gets applause because that’s what he wants the most. He needs his ego stroked.

Regardless of the political party we belong to, let's face a stark reality, and that is, ALL OF OUR OPINIONS ARE BASED ON WHAT WE HEAR, OR SEE IN THE MEDIA.

How bout for once we actually look at our own personal situations, and see how well off, or disenfranchised we are, compared to other times in our lives.
A few questions to better help you decide.
One needs to be honest with themselves when answering these questions, and not let politics get in the way of decision making.

Are you making more money now, than you were a few years ago?
Are you paying less taxes than in other times?
Are you able to better support yourselves, and your family, than in the past?
Do you feel the government(federal, state) are eating up more of your finances on things that should be used for other things?
Do you feel you are taking a back seat to special interest?
Is your #401 in a better position than it was a few years ago?
How about your investments?
Are they better off today, than a few years ago?
Are you finding you can put a little more money aside that in previous years was just about impossible?

The final questions being, are you better off morally than you were a few years ago, or has your thinking been totally corrupted, and influenced by the media?
Are you able to decide for yourselves, based on your answers to the questions given here, or do you expect the media is telling you honestly, the way things are.

These are some hard facts to consider beyond what we hear, and see from the media.

Bob.

Dude, off the charts awesomeness!

These things take years and if obama was handed a bad economy this is easily connected to the policies of Bill Clinton coming home to roost. Conspiring with China, irresponsible ME policy which directly resulted in the 9/11 attacks and two wars in response, opening the gates for a mortgage crisis and related stock market crash.


Friendly advice. I do know wtf I am talking about here, your denial is not a serious rebuttal.
