It’s almost as if the right wants a dictator in office anything to keep them from having to deal with truth and other parties.

Trump isn't president because he loves America and wants to help people, he's POTUS because he wants the attention and the title.

Ask Trump about any major issue, and it's usually "we're doing a very very good job" or "we'll see." He doesn't know squat about how the economy works or howACA is run.

If anybody challenges him on ANYTHING, instead of responding to the issues with facts, Trump insults people and attacks them personally. Why? Trump can't answer the questions because he doesn't understand the issues to begin with.
Yep, and it was on full display during that train wreck of a press conference when he and Acosta nearly came to blows. Trump could not even articulate how laws are passed. How in the hell is it that someone with nearly two years in office behind him cannot explain how laws are passed? It is clear in every exchange he has with the press that he is shirking the hard work of governing. He thinks he's working hard, but he's floated through life on his money and smile, and that's still the case today. Trump is a puppet. I have no doubt that his supporters fervently believe that he's accomplished a lot while he's been in office, but he's just a man with a fancy pen. It is not hard work to sign a sheet of paper that other people put in front of you. Tax cuts? The GOP has been working on that for years, and Trump just came along at an opportune time. Man with a pen. That's all he is to the Republican party, and they'll drop him like a hot potato when he's no longer their useful idiot.

Trump's announcement of his candidacy was a highly-staged event in Trump tower that included a ride down a golden escalator. How did you miss it?

That press conference was embarrassing. If a CEO of any major corporation had behaved like this, the board would be interviewing replacements the next day.

Trump's new Attorney General was involved in a multi-million dollar scam that was shut down by a federal judge earlier this year. Who in their right mind picks someone like that to be the nation's top law enforcement official?

I don't think this is something that happened to him yesterday. He did the same thing with his entire Birther thing and campaign.

40% plus of Americans support this.
Trump, the celebrity face of the birther movement, seemed to believe a very pregant 18 year old white woman and her black husband magically travelled 11,000 miles to Kenya to give birth.

At that time, Kenya was in the middle of a Civil War, interracial relations/ marriage ware illegal against and Obama Sr already had a wife and family in Kenya.

I’m not surprised.

Aren’t many of his rally attendees paid, too?
