Official LRC President Donald J Trump Thread

I'll agree that Hillary lost the election, even though more voters preferred her over your boy.

Spare me the 'snowflake' jab; it's tired, and it seems that you Trump fanboys are the ones who are so easily offended.

How does this work exactly? "Pushing back" against what? Why is big government getting in the way? I thought government encroaching on economic Freedom was a terrible thing only dirty liberals did. What happened?

Please explain this mystery. Conservative Justice Warriors, I want to believe!

Friday is my favorite news day. All the boring stuff that might mean something one day is published on Friday.

Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort is being kept in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day

That's not good for Paul's defense. I guess it doesn't help if you mess with witnesses....

Trump Foundation donations went to charities that held events at Mar-a-Lago: report

It can't be true!!! Operating a charity for the sole purpose of NOT charity? No!!

Ex-Playmate files lawsuit against former RNC official over hush-money agreement

That last one will probably be quite interesting as banished from the Trump kingdom, Michael Cohen in involved.

Our Constitution only covers the US. The President is in charge of negotiating treaties with other countries, so this isn't a "freedom" or "big government" issue. Trump is working very hard to create world-wide free markets.

"Pushing back" against closed markets that harm free trade. Many countries have tariffs on our goods, where we don't have tariffs on their goods coming in to the US. Now those tariffs on US goods harm our companies, but they do more harm to the country putting up the tariff because instead of harming one industry, the tariff lowers the standard of living across the board. I saw this first hand when I lived in England where imported Japanese cars cost twice as much there than they did in the US. The result was that a couple 100,000 car manufacturing jobs were protected, with the unintended consequence of drastically lowering the standard of living for the other 55 million people. One of the reasons the US has been able to maintain a high standard of living is that we generally keep our tariffs low, so US citizens benefit from the productivity across the world.

Trump's "Fair Trade" goal is to lower tariffs everywhere, allowing US companies to sell overseas in currently closed markets, which would help the target country overall even if certain market segments would suffer with the new competition. Politically, dropping tariffs is difficult because previously protected businesses would see competitive pressure, so Trump has to turn up the heat to force them to open their markets to US competition. If he succeeds, then everyone wins. If he fails, then we have some temporary pain and go back to the old ways and the target country continues to suffer.

That's what's going on.

Please tell me there's a Liberal out there somewhere that understands this.

Spare us the incessant whining over the popular vote and play by the rules loser. She got soundly beat. You Clinton fansissy boys are so easily upset over the loss, you just can't let it go...LOL!!!!! No, more voters in one state preferred her. But not Michigan, OHIO, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, Iowa, etc...She got beat.

Have fun snowflake sissy boy. Have you ever broken 3:35 for the marathon yet. I remember that being your goal.

Yes, he did clobber her. California is the reason why the Electoral College exists.

Johnny99 is always butthurt over losing. Not sure what his pr is, but I'd bet he's a lard.

Gary, you really can't see why this photo was called racist? What does Obama being photoshopped on an African tribesman have anything to do with Obamacare (The ACA) or communism, which was the only other thing in the photo.

You can't see how deliberately racist that was? Your worldview is making much more sense now.

You wear that red M.A.G.A. hat proudly, don't you?

Hi Mike! You just can't let it go. How's that deejaying career going? You are a bigger loser than than your queen, Hillary.

The electoral college exists because the founders didn't trust the population to vote for the president and had designated electors cast the official votes.

Each state determines how they cast their allotted electoral votes.

Most do winner take all but don't have to.

There is no organized conformity to how this is done.

No one really gives a crap about London's mayor other than Londoners.

Big boys have criticism roll off their backs. You should let your Orange leader try to be a big boy. He will fail, but you should let him try.

The world protested Reagan too. The world is full of idiots.

Reagan was a fraud. First of all let's tackle what should be on his tombstone, the Iran-Contra Affair, which was the most perfidious event in 20th Century American leadership. Then there is all the stuff Republicans and weedy Democrats like to say he did, like reduce the size of the Federal bureaucracy. In fact it doubled under his Presidency. Then we have the federal budget. He entered office with $599 billion in revenue, $678 billion in spending, and a deficit of $79 billion. He left office with a federal budget of $909 billion in revenue, a little less than $1.1 trillion in spending, and a deficit of $155 billion. Oh then there is the story that he "ended the Cold War". Well, firstly it didn't end it just went into hiatus, and no, he did not win it for the West. There were no winners. And trust me, it was the Soviet system that imploded. Then there is the myth that he was compassionate and nice--you must remember things actors do (even really bad actors) are just roles they are playing. They have different lives when they are at home. So yes - many people in the world, myself included, did protest Reagan. We should not look to him as some sort of "better conservative" - we should look to him as part of the reason we ended up where we are today. And yes, Bill Clinton deserves some of the credit for that too. Equally a fraud.

No sh*t sherlock!!!! We all already know that. Bottom line, she got beat and you babies can't deal with it...hence your lashing out at Trump every single day since he was elected. That's called OBSESSED! But, you have all the answers so you can defy logic and give us your unfiltered story.

Something is very wrong with Gary. Perpetual butt hurt and wrong 95% to 99.5% of the time. Seems to have no other life than this thread.

Philly's two-time biggest loser of 2015 & 2016 and should have won again in 2017. Pic below.

Nah...some did. Nothing like what we are seeing with Trump.

Yup.

In the news: Trump has deported parents AND kept their kids. What does Trump needs these kids for? How about a real-life child porn ring, and his Lolita Express. ... Now, Trumpettes were the ones who wanted to kill Hillary on sight for a Fake News child porn ring running in secret in a kitchen basement. Trump's child porn ring is running out in the open. Trumpettes will soon come to the defense of the IDIOT, pervert, Trump.

That might make sense if the US were "great again" like back in the 50's. But the fact is we don't dominate the world market. Take steel for example. We produce 10.1 metric tons of steel and import 36 million metric tons. China produces 831 metric tons of steel. We are 4% of the Chinese steel business. Do you really think taxing their imports by 25% on just 4% of their business is going to affect them in any way? They will just laugh at us.

On the other hand, we are raising the cost of our steel substantially because the cost of imported steel goes up and domestic steel will go up with less competition. Our industries that use steel will have to pass the cost increase onto customers and everyone is screwed.

This is basically a no-win situation. And I don't think it's going to be easy to get out of as you think. Are we just going to go to the Chinese and say, "Oh, sorry, we didn't really mean to start a trade war. Our POTUS is just an idiot."

Huh? Taxes they were "bad" and the government useless when Congress passed their last tax policy bill. But, these taxes and government interfering in trade are good. So you guys really love your big government.

No. Not at all. Nothing he has done "frees" markets. Nothing. And markets aren't free. Trump is making sure they aren't free at all!

By interfering in trade and preventing economic activity. You guys love your big government!

So, Xi is going to wake up one morning and capitulate to the idiot occupying the White House? Cool story, bro. Are you tired of losing, Gary? I'm tired of a weak loser losing in the White House.

Gary, by your telling, lowering trade barriers in England was a net good. It stands to reason then, that NAFTA is a net good. Right? Thanks Clinton!

I get it now. You guys love big government just like liberals. You just apply it to failed policy.
