So do you think he seriously gives a hoot about what goes on in LA?
He is the President of all these United States, including CA, making him L.A.'s President. And I'm tired of the weasels at City Hall believing this is their own little fiefdom with which they can do as they please. Furthermore, it's not a matter of our City Hall vs. Trump, as the aforementioned laws have been on the books long before Donald J. Trump, your President and mine, took office.

But the election was "traumatic " according to Mayor Snowflake Garcetti


Garcetti, who supported Trump’s opponent Hillary Clinton, said he feels “the pull” to join protests himself and has taken to the streets in the past.

“This was a traumatic election,” he said during a news conference at City Hall. “There’s plenty of division, and there’s finger-pointing in both directions, but there were things that were said that were not partisan, about women, about our Muslim brothers and sisters, about immigrants.”

And Trump and his crew allegedly broke laws to get elected. He's spending considerable time defending himself against these allegations, all while FAILING to reform healthcare or push through immigration reform. With all of his recent problems he quite clearly cares less about what's going on in LA.

His presidency is not going well and anyone not in denial can see it.

Allegedly . According to the media that is in the pocket of the left ..
Everyday is a new "outrage"

Media has gotten so gossipy now too .

How many stories have been "allegedly" true and then turns out to be fake news yet they never apologize and just go on to the next fake story .

This is not about President Trump. This is a matter of our L.A. city government making a mockery of federal laws. Consumption of marijuana for personal amusement is illegal according to federal law. For our city government to act as an accessory to this illegal activity disgusts me. Who's running this city, Vinne Palermo?

Trump has been blasting Sessions in the media to the point where Republican senators have had to speak out. Trump has shown instability and the ability to get nothing of note done.

Oh but it is about Trump. His administration has bigger problems to worry about, including whether the attorney general will get fired. Trump could careless about federal law.

It's all about his ego.

Besides, Congress denied the Justice department the ability to go after marijuana in states were it is legal. Under both Obama and this year again under Trump. Courts have upheld this. The nation is moving towards full legalization.

President Trump did not make illegal immigration illegal or illegal narcotics illegal. And come on now, you're going to have to do more than that to get my ire up.

Just watch his administration implode. He just fired Prebius. Sessions is next.

The other reason why nothing will get done is the Feds don't have enough jails to stop people from doing drugs. The resources are not there.

The media amplifies anything Trump admin does while they gave the Obama admin a pass and had pretty much a love affair with him during his campaign , during his Presidency and post Presidency today .

Perception becomes reality .

Harvard did a study on the media negativity of Trump .
