Here I am repeating myself. He is the president, he is suppose to be leading the discussion. Is e-verify more important than calling ex employee's dogs? He seems to have time for that. He has time for golfing. He has time for worthlessly threatening other countries. He doesn't have time for this?

While he has done more than anyone is recent history - he can't do everything. And I don't want him doing everything. This country is a collective effort for everyone to be involved in. What about the states - do they have laws and are the corporations breaking those laws?
You know the answer to this. It is NOT the job of the states, per the courts and the Constitution.

Rich crooks almost never go to prison. It's not just under Trump.

And I think more should have been prosecuted.

Seriously? I can think of a few that have gone unpunished under Obama ...Hillary, to name just one, and her corrupt "foundation."

More? There were none in actuality.

Right. That's why he's so successful, I suppose. Obama damn near destroyed this nation, and was probably the most unqualified for the job of anyone in American history. President Trump is cleaning up his mess, and is doing very well, thank you very much.

^Wow.
Successful??? Successful ****** maybe, I will give you that.
He has declared bankruptcy how many times? I do lose track.
He has hundreds of lawsuits from people who have done business with him and
claim that he is a crook, ****** and fraud.
Look at the people he surrounds himself with....mostly liars, and con men just like himself.
And he is dragging the Presidency down in the gutter with him.



Some people sure have blinders on that is for sure.
Trump is the Worst. President Ever.
Ever.

Leading the discussion on what? The data from a left wing group? That's not going to happen.

Yes - he spends time dealing with what others put before him. He chooses to make sure that certain negative narratives are dealt with - otherwise people believe them. That's what he does. I can't change that.

I think expectations are unrealistic here. There's plenty of stuff that hasn't been dealt with - medicare fraud, food stamp fraud, Chicago, drugs, - the list can go on forever.

I agree.

It is amazing that 30% of the voters refuse to acknowledge this problem.

Consumer product safety laws are being relaxed, open season on the ecology (with concomitant risks of cancers and other threatening diseases), attacks on programs vulnerable people need to live like Social Security and Medicare, consumer financial protections are gutted and now we see business criminals are not being fined or prosecuted as they should.

This con man is the savior of the people???? We've all been had!!!

Right, you aren't concerned over the actual issue just in pushing your politics. That's sad and something I do not understand.
