This guy is taking care of business. This guy is doing more in 2 weeks than our last president did in 8 years
For the love of God. Stop already.

This isn't even good fiction, ok?

You are making a fool of yourself

Trump has done great things in just the first week! So glad I voted for him and he is keeping his promises.

Other than sign his name to a number of documents some of which are legally dubious at best, what has he actually done? Or are your standards so low that a signature meets your wildest expectations?

BC had the chance to take out OBL in the 90s, and chose not to.

Eh, no. OBL's "The war has just started. The Americans should wait for our answer" quoted in the Esquire interview in 1998 came in response to Clinton's missile strike at his last known position.

I wish Amercans would read.

If you think you are 5 steps ahead, you probably aren't. Such is the nature of asymmetric warfare - the enemy is always cooking up news ways to attack. Time will tell us whether Trump was 5 steps ahead or not.
Thread after thread and post after post claiming/predicting what President Trump will do in the future.

Now you tell us " time will tell "

You are right about = "the enemy is always cooking up news ways to attack"
That's the reason to stay on offence and keep them on defense. That was the idea about fighting them over there. Until some idiot decided to invite the enemy into the country.

Interesting! After I read your post, I did some research. Dubai isn't on it either. Remember when he said he turned down a $2 billion business deal in Dubai? Maybe he isn't as much of a pathological liar as I thought.

"Friday’s executive order, signed at the Pentagon, suspends the issuing of U.S. visas or travel permits to people from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen."

"Not a single American was killed on U.S. soil by citizens from any of those countries between 1975 and 2015, according to statistics tallied by the conservative-leaning Cato Institute."

Are you on Crack? You must be on Crack right. Let me have some, because. I want to see what you are thinking. Trump is friends with wealthy Saudis, Qatari, Emirates business persons. Funny thing Saudi wealthy and Qatari wealthy fund isis. Also the Saudis and Emirati and Pakistan recognized the taliban regime on Afghanistan. Also the neoliberal Republicans who funded the islamist to fight the atheist red army from Afghanistan. The very same army that generations ago surrounded Berlin and neatly killed Adolf Hitler. Long live the Soviet Union. If anything. The following bans on Muslims should be from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan and Egypt and Jordan. As for reason why Iran is on list? Trump is America's first Jewish president. Therefor, Trump is the defender of the Jewish tribe. And Iran is Israel mortal enemy. Iran didn't attack America in any way or form. It's sad to see to Iraq and Syria. Once which embraced socialism and secularism, slowly decay due to increase of islamism in their realms. Well I have to thank Bush and Obama for such problems. Maybe bill Clinton too for putting sanctions on Iraq.
