]I take little stock on what the billionaire oligarchs have to say. Not wanting to force feed millions of refugees into our country makes us "nationalists" .. whatever, billionaire.
[/b]As for being divided, this country was already headed that way under Obama because democrats insist on playing the victim card rather than telling minorities in the inner city to shut the bleep up and take responsibility for their own actions, stop being criminals, get a job, and do some good in their lives. If we're getting divided it's because it's human nature for different cultures to want to live together and to expect different cultures with different belief systems to mingle together in some sort of fantasy fairy tale defies the laws of nature and evolution and will take some time to accomplish. It's not so much about skin color as it is one's culture.
As to whether he's qualified or not, well luckily the founding fathers have that covered. He can't get too much done without the approval of congress, so just tough it out and vote for the next guy in 4 years if you're so upset about it. If it was up to me, I would eliminate the use of executive orders entirely however, and rescind all past executive orders, and make everything be passed by legislation that has to go through the congress. Maybe it would make government work a little bit faster, since now they don't seem to be motivated to do much of anything except line their own pockets, regardless of party.
First thing I was thinking too.
Refugees = Cheap Labor to the Establishment. We must have a plentiful labor supply otherwise salaries might begin to go up. American workers might even start demanding more benefits and vacation/holiday times to spend with their families! Shudder.
Trump is not a threat to Democracy. He is threat to the Estaqblishment because he and a few other politicians like Bernie Sanders, cannot be bought so easily. When politicians cannot be bought, they might actually start listening to the people instead of corporates and special interests.
Trump and Trumpism/Bannonism is a threat to our democracy because, at its core, it is all based on destruction and anarchy. Trumpism is based on a mishmash of discredited and contradictory philosophies. Love of money, hatred of trade; Nationalism based on division; a self-professed working class party that seeks to make the rich richer off the backs of the working class; a party that says it is a pro-middle class party-than seeks tax cuts for the rich at the expense of the middle class, an orwellian party that lies are truth and truth lies,
and above all:
A faux conservative party that seeks not to restore tradition but to destroy it; not to build up America but see it in ruins.
Yes..the Trump/Bannon faction is fraud at its best.

The funny thing is Trump and Sanders, really have very similar ideology, but yet their supporters hate each other...
A threat to democracy??? While common leftist/MSNBC talking points, such an argument has no basis in reality. The only threat to democracy we had this past cycle was a corrupt DNC nominating process, where unelected superdelates had an outsized role in choosing the nominee and where leaked emails show the DNC was against Bernie from the jump. Just goes to show that money doesn't buy brains.
"Billionaire hedge fund manager Seth Klarman reportedly ripped President Trump at an investment conference last week, calling Trump “a threat to democracy.â€
Trump is the President of the United States. It's going to be the case for another 7-plus years.
Crybabies and Leftists can go ____themselves. LOL.
7 years? Bahahahahaha! The great pumpkin won't last two years. He is a threat to democracy and his days are numbered. He'll be lucky not to die in jail.

Yet you seem fine having the GOP told how to vote by the KOCH family. And you seem happy with Mercer funding trump , bannon and breitbart....
hmmm, i guess you and the rest of the right are fine with billionaires running your party , deciding who wins the primary and creating astroturf movements like the tea party...
Trump's cabinet is an oligarchy. He's attempting to Putinize our government. Even has his own state news agency.
I guess some of these billionaires actually do care about their country.
LOL.... Don't wake up.... I got a bet on ya!
