President Trump: Making America Great Again...

[frank ryan]

Even dumber than tariffs on German cars -- 25% tariff on steel and aluminum to be slapped on Canada, Mexico and the EU. Geez. Hello world wide trade war and resulting recession if this really happens. But a really bad economy might be the only thing that would dislodge his base from him.

Benghazi!

I hate Trump so much. Conservative, my ass.

Hahahahaha, it sounds Donald is writing Melania's tweets now:

Embedded Tweet

That is hilarious.

That is hilarious.

sort of reminds about the wife of the scientology leader a couple of years ago.

either that or, "Don't cry for me Argentina!"

[BlueK]

Yes, that's a bad policy and something newly enforced under Trump. The problem I have is with news articles claiming that Trump lost 1,500 kids adn then posting pictures of kids in jail from Obama's time as president. Neither the claim nor the pictures are factual to the accusations against Trump but despite it's lack of authenticity, it seemed to take over social media before anyone debunked it...throwing more and more kindling on the fake news fire.

two words: social and media. Social media can be a real plague sometimes.

That is hilarious.

Is it? I'm struggling to understand why.

Is it? I'm struggling to understand why.

Because, as Frank points out, the POTUS obviously wrote that tweet.

It doesn't seem so obvious to me, I guess. I mean, she doesn't even use any ALL CAPS.

That tweet is Vintage Donald Trump's style just like the dumbass doctor report was. "Hilarious" maybe in a sarcastic way, i guess.

I was hoping NK would make trump forget about doing dumb trade shit. Hopefully he doesnt go through with it

[frank ryan]

I don’t like huffpo but this article has tweets from that sound very similar. Remember Trump wrote his own damn medical report.

"I see the media is working overtime speculating where I am & what I'm doing."

Come on. That could hardly be more Donald other than ALL CAPS.

The steel and aluminum tariffs go into effect in less than 12 hours. They are the same ones he previously announced but then delayed so they could negotiate. They have been talking, but eventually the other countries apparently told Donald to stick it. I think people are going to be surprised how soon prices on a lot of stuff will go up with these tariffs and the ones he just stuck China with like the day after he was supposed to have resolved that dispute.

Well, aren't they speculating? I've seen a bunch of stories, counting the exact number of days since she was seen in public, etc. I don't see any references to FAKE NEWS or the failing New York Times. No doubt Melania takes her social media cues from DJT, but I'm not sure this is evidence he's got his thumbs on her blackberry.

well trump can certainly change his mind in 12 hours, right?
