Part of it is those who support a US President’s ultimate goals have always been willing to ignore or justify whatever infractions he committed while Paresident. Lincoln did some very bad things as President with the ultimate goals of abolishing slavery and winning the US Civil War. He even imprusoned people who spoke out against his actions, including fellow politicians and journalist. Look at FDR and what he did to Americans of Japanese ancestry. At the time of this action he was fully supported by his voters. JFK was hooked on prescription pain killers and was a serial womanizer. Such behavior among the intelligence community would be a red flag and could result in the loss of security clearance. But because he was a propulsion president doing things the public supported it was all forgiven. Since Nixon the press has become more like the activist wing of the Democratic Party. They amplify any possible impropriety of a Republican President while choosing to ignore or white wash similar or higher improprieties of Democratic Party presidents. In Trump’s case those reports from the press aren’t working on his supporters because they no longer trust the press when it comes to politics. They fully support Trump’s push to secure our country’s southern border as well as bring manufacturing jobs back to USA through renegotiations of international trade treaties. You don’t approach a treaty meeting with your tail tucked between your legs and bowing lower than those you’re negotiating with. You make a strong offer, they make a counter offer, and the deal begins. Some last presidents have negotiated such treaties from a position of weakness and it’s reflected on the dwindling of manufacturing jobs.for so,e trump supporters the case against him involves him paying a porn star to keep quiet, something that isn’t illegal. The initial investigation was the Russian collusion but there was no evidence of a collusion. In fact, there was more evidence of Hillary Clinton conducting a pay to play while acting as US Secretary of State in receiving cash donations from foreign countries in exachange for her supporting deals between USA and the donating countries, including Russsia.

I truly have never seen a more obedient fan base than trump’s. They don’t question a thing he does. He was handed an incredible economy, yet he feels the need to cause problems with these tariffs. America doesn’t care about his waste of money Wall that won’t stop anybody from coming in, yet he wastes everyone’s time and ****s down the government to childishly make his point. He embarrasses himself endlessly on twitter and us in the process, for having such a moron as our president.
With that said, him being elected is why we took back the house. It’s why the president will be D in 2021. He has buried the Republican Party, and for that I am appreciative.
I think this is the silver lining that is often forgotten. Had Hillary been elected she probably would have been a 1 term President (rarely do single parties ever even get more than 2 consecutive terms). More importantly though the hole that Dems had in the both the house and senate would have been expanded. The ONLY way for the Dems to have regained control of both was for the vile, wholly incompetent, criminal, serial liar to be elected. In 2020 the Dems will take over the Senate and win the presidency. We'll tackle gerrymandering, campaign finance reform, and will kick in single payer. Never would have happened had Trump lost. Worst president of all time.
He also has dementia like his father had.
Due to stress i expect him to unravel as it gets worse under stress. Then there is his heart condition and jugh weight gain.
His health has gone downhill since he took office he’s gained weight a lot of it as a whole is not looking very healthy .
How do you think they feel about subsidizing the tab for tonight's glitzy Maralago bash? Right now--while federal workers are not getting paid--we are paying for the self-entitled Trump family's party. People are paying massive amounts of money to go to a party with the president (called Pay to Play). Trump will still profit and enrich himself off of his Maralago parties, as WE pay for them? How is this not corrupt?
Trump is not attending, but for some reason, the taxpayers are paying for the party from which he is profiting! Anyone know why we have to pay for a party at a Trump 5-star luxury resort that he is not attending? No way they would have let Obama get away with something like this--Gowdy would have held investigations.
Let's hear the base defend this. Where's that super-duper investigative reporter D'Istort D'Newsa--the one who is always on the lookout for public officials profiting from their office?
"...Though it’s never not going to be a conflict of interest when the president has taxpayers subsidize a for-profit party at his private club, $54,000 for tents feels especially egregious given that the government is currently running under a partial shutdown that has deprived approximately 800,000 federal workers of their paychecks..."
You think maybe it’s because we agree with a majority of what he does on policy? Tariffs are bringing China to the table, our steel industry has come back, the economy has doubled from the weak 1.6% 2016 GDP Obama numbers. The border needs to and will be secured, he is trying to get us out of the snake pit known as the Middle East, we just passed criminal justice reform, he’s attacking the opioid crisis, the Supreme Court is young and conservative, and so on.
If you open your eyes you’ll see why he stil has support. So do I agree with everything? Not at all. But we shouldn’t have to explain our support for the president, yet the constant negative coverage in the media makes me do just that because I don’t think a good part of the country is getting the full picture.
Yeah, but the fact that he paid a couple professional *** dumpsters to go away is all they have now.
Russia-gate is DOA and Lisa Page has confirmed that the Mueller investigation really is Strzok's "insurance policy" against the people electing Trump president, so the walls are closing in on these people.
