President Trump: Making America Great Again...

Speaking of, I was a the Supreme Court today (humble brag for lawyers, embarrassing fact for normal people); I think Gorsuch is kind of a dick. I see why Trump choose him.

Do tell.

The video, which puts his always-patronizing approach on full display, is truly embarrassing. I understand that many like what he has done (or not done) thus far, but how anyone can approve of his manner of speech, texting and demeanor is stupefying.

How I feel about Trump is no secret, but I’m continually flabbergasted how those who support/supported him continue to try and justify their opinions. He’s one of the worst Presidents of all time, less than a year into office. I think some of this has to do with scapegoating the mainstream media, and relying on tweets, memes and talk radio for information.

I thought it was sort of sketchy that he likes to hold speeches on Trump property. Maybe Mike Lee will be the next SCOTUS pick!

Great guy, our president:

Embedded Tweet

How can you not be proud of him?

holy smokes

But ... but ... but ... SUPREME COURT PICKS!

Yeah. When the National Review makes a well-reasoned argument that the SCOTUS isn't a good enough reason to vote for Trump, it's time to find a candidate to run against him in the primaries.

For the love of God, can someone stop Trump from tweeting.

LONDON—Donald Trump retweeted an apparent snuff video to his 40 million followers Wednesday morning, with footage depicting what looked like a brutal murder carried out by an Islamist mob that had been posted by a far-right British political activist.

The extraordinary act by a sitting president was apparently a tweet too far even for Trump’s staunchest allies, including a prominent editor at InfoWars, who admitted this was “not great optics.”

The clip appears to show radicals—one of whom is carrying what looks like a black ISIS flag—throwing a man from the roof of a building and then beating him as he lay on the ground. The footage was part of a series of videos posted by an Islamophobic street campaigner called Jayda Fransen.

Fransen, the deputy leader of far-right group Britain First, is due to appear in court next month after being charged with “threatening, abusive or insulting words or behavior” during one of her “anti-terrorism” rallies in Britain this past summer.

Two of Fransen’s other videos—which were also retweeted by the president—were apparently aimed at inciting religious hatred. One was titled “Muslim Destroys a Statue of Virgin Mary!” and the other was “Muslim migrant beats up Dutch boy on crutches!” According to Dutch media, the teen seen bullying the kid on crutches turned out not to be a Muslim or an immigrant.

I find this stuff embarrassing, too. I do not approve of his speech, texting, and demeanor much of the time. But there are two important equations:

Substance (what is being done or accomplished) > Form
Trump > Hillary

Also, when you [not you specifically] demonize classy moderates, like Mitt Romney, as greedy, racist, sexist, or even like Hitler, then you get Trump. Trump is not so much the problem as he is a symptom of many deep problems.

It is nice to see that the government is no longer seeking to punish the Little Sisters of the Poor for not providing contraceptives as part of their health plans.

I don't disagree that Trump should stay away from Twitter and that these tweets are beneath the President, but I find the following quite troubling:

1. Someone is being charged and appearing in court due to "insulting words or behavior?" Good thing for old_gregg that he doesn't live in Britain.
2. A Muslim destroys a statue of the Virgin Mary and the person that documented that / shared that is the one inciting religious hatred? It's the other way around.

Ok, Breitbart reader. Reposting emotionally loaded videos from white supremivists (Britain First/BNP are fascists) should never be considered ok to do, let alone for POTUS to do.

Trump is like a clueless, dumbass uncle posting racist videos on FB. Except he is doing it from the white house. smh.

[Commando]

Let's clear this shit up: Trump is not > Hillary. In any equation.

1. Don't read Breitbart, but good job assuming that if someone doesn't share your worldview, then they must be getting news from talk radio, memes, or breitbart.
2. You didn't read my post closely.
