Polls are polls. You all were so sure that the polls with Hillary winning were correct.

It's very amusing to see how desperately Trumplings are apologizing for and defending their BSing hero. Loyal, but gullible.

They're an evaporating minority.



Prosecute Hillary, don't forget! How many of the TRUMP-TARDS posting here, were also posting "Lock HER UP",but now they have amnesia?

Tough concept, apparently.

Yep.

I heard tRump claim he had the biggest victory ever.

He also claimed the biggest inauguration crowd ever.

Did you hear all about those or are you still at Nov 9th?

Until the Syria crisis, it was still a lot of blunders and partisan politics. Syria was handled OK, but there is still a lot of issues of who were appointed and laws signed by Trump or Trump executive orders that don't work for Americans. Syria works for the weak-minded. I'm not.

He has even offended our allies of Great Britain, Mexico, and Australia, and his aggressive militaristic moves towards other countries virtually assures that we will become involved in another war that we don't need.

He hasn't created jobs; as a matter of fact, he has eliminated them with his federal hiring freeze. His staff turnover is high, as one scandal after another plagues the White House. And he has spent vast amounts of taxpayer funds on his weekly golfing vacations to Mar-a-Lago. His popularity is the lowest of any new president in recent history. The cherry on top is his incessant lying and the unfounded accusations toward Obama, the media, and others. And we still have more than 3 1/2 years of his administration to go. How can his supporters spin his actions as a successful 100 days?

I think the whole reason Trump is stomping around the globe acting like a regional despot is exactly because his 100 days have failed, and failed spectacularly.

Trump needs to be able to claim he did something, anything at all. And war, bombs and death tend to get the media on side no matter the consequences, failures or ricks.

ISIS is gaining ground in Afghanistan, Syria is now MORE dangerous for Americans since Trump's attack and our troops have had to pull back to safer areas due to now have the Syrian military as an enemy.
KOREA has NOT be cowed and will proceed with plans until either china makes it too costly (ie border workers etc exports) or the world pays him off yet again.

Trump's sending ships to korea just shows how impotent he really is.

If Kim calls his bluff, then he only has two alternatives:

a) back down (most likely)

b) start a costly war (most ridiculous)

I was yelling lock her up cause mainly I enjoyed saying it, anyways I think her losing the election to a total outsider as bad as she did is punishment enough. Showed just how much this country hates her......she must be hitting the bottle extra hard these days. Cheers!

Palm Beach restaurants had a 50% cancellation rate for their annual Easter brunches.

He does not appear to care what he does to local businesses when he is in town. He lives in secluded obliviousness. He must be aware of it by now unless he is a total ignoramus.

He also spent a lot of time bashing cities for crime rates when the town at his doorstep has a crime rate higher than Chicago. Why doesn't he care about making West Palm Beach great again? His hypocrisy knows no bounds.
