Mr. Trump reminds me greatly of my father. I hesitate to tell you he was a half-breed American Indian! But everybody got out of his way. Including a number of my erstwhile boyfriends after he gave them "The Speech"!

Hi JuliBMe,
The left elite are going down and it is like watching roaches flea from a can of raid.
Today the big shot from CBS Moonves goes down
I can hear his chorus with Eric Schneiderman and
Harvey Weinstein singing #me too. Stay tuned for the canary Mack singing about NXVUM .
Stock up on popcorn.

He was not my ideal choice, I think he does childish things at time, but compared to the swamp, I have to stand with him. Obama is now out mouthing off, which makes me even more suspect it was a member of his "shadow government", as he calls them, who wrote the op-ed. Trump does not bark at rallies, as manic Hillary. I can't stand the Bus family. They are crooked from way back, just like the Clintons. We rally have a mess in DC, There is so much to be undone or addressed, that all these swamp and crooked Congressmen, will never let happen. When will they address the Congressional pedophile ring, in which I have read Hillary is involved. Aganda 21 of the UN needed to be stopped, but it is not even on the radar.

They are amassing forces ever since Trump got inaugurated. I have to hand it to them for being persistent. They are trying everything now, hoping to get control of the house and start impeachment proceedings. Given it takes the Senate supermajority to actually impeach, it will only delay things that Trump could be doing to benefit our country.

Maybe he is a dyed in the wool objectivist waiting for a 100% consistent Galt to win elections. That may happen at some point, but not in my lifetime given the state of this culture. He should look at how much Atlas Shrugged actually accomplished to date. Its a SLOW process.

I think that before they "find stuff" on Trump, the stuff on the "deep state" will surface and heads will roll. Figuratively speaking, of course.
Mueller and his cohorts are working feversihly to keep that from happening. Keep in mind Mueller's part in the Uranium1 deal, etc. How all the players were enriched via deals while in government "service".
If, and when, that all pops to the surface there will be hell to pay. And they are attempting to avoid that happening.
Swamp creatures would like to avoid the light of day of that info.

"One way or the other you pay for it. "
Unvarnished truth, CG. Both major parties are guilty of buying votes and growing government against their oath to the Constitution. A friend told me his research showed that government spending led directly to the 2000 recession when the growth of spending slowed. I don't think it's nearly that simple, but I agree with you that government spending is far too high for the health of America's liberty.

"That describes every...". Interesting coincidence that I see in the news that O just gave a speech where he refers to himself 102 times in 64 minutes.

Think of his tweets as bait, or distractions, sorta like a laser pointer being chased by a herd of cats. That's how I see it.
KAG!

He's doing just fine, so far. When I look at what he has done to this point, I'm amazed. Has it only been 21 months?
That's why the left is digging deep to resurrect their barely breathing(referring to political power) brethren(0zero and any other socialist around).
CG sounds really angry and I can't figure out why, other than extreme disappointment with the '16 election.
Oh well.

I've known CG long enough to afford the benefit of the doubt. We certainly don't always see things the same way but I can sometimes appreciate where he's coming from, even if i do disagree.

That will be the litmus test on Trump. No doubt there will be more tax income for the fedgov for the remainder of this term and potentially the next, but if he allows congress to spend the excess instead of paying down what we owe we'll be worse off.

"An attention seeking narcissist"
That describes every congressman in both major parties and 98% of the other looters in the Dark Center.
"As I told a O supporter" - you're telling another O supporter when you respond to CG, AJA. Don't expect them to take the red pill though; they are colorblinded by the potential accusations of racism from their comrades.

"Government will take in more taxes as a consequence of more robust business and spend less as result of internal cuts."
If the deficit falls lower than it was when in 2016, you'll be proven right.

"I do not think President Trump plans to raise taxes or do anything. I think he's an attention-seeking clown. "

I think you are wrong on both counts. What he's done is cut back regulations, culled the government payroll, renegotiated NAFTA with the Mexicans and is i the process of doing the same with Canada. He has successfully threatened tariffs increases to this nations who raped us with tariffs on our goods and has revived part of the Steel and coal industry in the process.

End result, he doesn't need to raise taxes or curtail spending AS LONG AS THE ECONOMY FLOURISHES AND THE GDP CONTINUES TO INCREASE. Government will take in more taxes as a consequence of more robust business and spend less as result of internal cuts.

I can't for a second fathom how you think he hasn't or wont do anything.

As I told a O supporter, all he's really done is use the existing system and remove the choke hold O placed on it to show Americans that Capitalism is alive and well and works.
An attention seeking narcissist, yes but that's nothing new about Donald Trump. A clown, no.

I do not think President Trump plans to raise taxes or do anything. I think he's an attention-seeking clown. If he distracts people while gov't spending and intrusion decreases, I think that's luck and could very easily go the other way, but I can't prove it's not a master plan anymore than I can disprove the FSM. The question is moot, though, because gov't spending and intrusion is not decreasing.

"I meant by borrowing heavily, leading to an eventual crisis, leading to higher tax rates." Your supposition makes sense, but that doesn't mean Trump's plan is to raise future taxes.

"All that matters is spending. One way or the other you pay for it." Also true, but I see Trump's plan is to get government out of the way so America's capitalist base can get on with the business of generating more wealth. Firing up the private sector "should" begin reducing the number of recipients of the welfare state and generate more revenue. This should reduce the matter of spending and increase the ability to pay debts at the same time. Stemming massive illegal immigration also has the effect of reducing the number of recipients of the great welfare state and the other expenses it causes. Addressing artificial and unfair trade issues should reduce the one way flow of wealth from the US to the rest of the world.

The issue is partisan only with respect the Dems are virtually fully collectivists and the Reps can still field a capitalist leaning candidate like Trump and actually win an election. The parties are almost the same, but not quite identical in their slide leftward. The election of Trump may be causing a wakening and rebuilding of the Rep party. The Dems are demonstrating they have gone far left and won't be back.

Trump said-stop illegal immigration, cut taxes and regulations, make better trade deals, get rid of Obamacare, and make America competitive to bring jobs back. He is trying to do all those things in spite of incredible opposition from the establishment. He had to compromise some of the time to get any support at all

What would you have him do?

"He isn’t intellectually consistent, but he would cut government is he could."
This made me laugh aloud. President Trump seems to forget his key positions on any issue, just saying whatever random thought comes to his mind and gets him attention at the moment, forgetting if he said the exact opposite a month earlier.

All arguments that Trump actually wants smaller and less intrusive gov't but consistently says and does the opposite seem absurd. It's a just-so argument, post-hoc rationalization. No matter what happens, it's all part of a Seldon plan whose goal may be completely contrary to everything happening now. The simple and obvious explanation, e.g. simple pandering, is almost always correct.

"I can't comment on whether or not he will be raising taxes anytime soon. "
I meant by borrowing heavily, leading to an eventual crisis, leading to higher tax rates. I seem to remember people on this board saying $400 billion per year structural deficit in 2016 was unsustainable. They were right. So is a $1 trillion deficit in 2019.

All that matters is spending. One way or the other you pay for it.

Your view of this being a partisan issue doesn't seem even remotely true to me. It's just short-term thinking and people being used to government spending being a huge fraction of the economy and being used to looking to the gov't for solutions to citizens' individual problems.

No one dares say anything - but you have 9 thumbs up.

Hi Dobrien, yes that more than made my day!

I noticed McCain among the H Clinton party, cheering her on.

Yes...even paying for a "dirt" report on Trump.

Yes. I find most folks have no interest in researching. But being a FA that is what has given my family and I a decient living.
I do see a very large number of videos andTweets with Q references such as #Qanon # WWG1WGA
