Official LRC President Donald J Trump Thread

Looks like Trump has completely sold out his base. Negotiating with Pelosi and Shumer to keep the Dreamers, plus no wall. Add that to sticking with the Iran deal, no repeal of ObamaCare, no jobs for Carrier workers, not taking vacations, and dozens of other things.

So when does his base turn on him? Or are they too stupid to see that he keeps selling them out?

The backlash on the right to this DACA news is astonishing. The prospect of NOT ruining millions of innocent brown people's lives is truly heartbreaking for them.

Being a sexual assaulter is fine, a complete lack of transparency in your financial relationships with foreign entities is fine, packing your administration with corporate lobbyists and Wall Street leeches is fine, obstruction of justice is fine, lying constantly about virtually everything and knowing nothing about how government works is fine. Declining to kidnap and ship some 22 year old who grew up here and only speaks English to Nicaragua? DEAL-BREAKER!!!!

The problem has always been the Republican base. Trump was just a symptom.

I think it depends. I think this is a tactic to try and get Paul Ryan and toad face Mitch McConnell back in line so they at least start to work to get something done. I think most people are pragmatic when it comes to politics, are willing to compromise as long as the country is moving forward in the direction they want. No one can have everything.

In other words, to get them to agree to be Trump's loyal slaves.

No, to work together with the democrats to get something done. It appears Trumps willing, the rest need to get on board. if the GOP does not want to play ball, so be it. I'm perfectly fine with trump bypassing them.

You DO realize that 2 years AFTER Obama's amnesty giveaway in DACA, that Hillary herself said that they should go back, right?

And your entire second paragraph are things that are only true in your head. Where'd all those women go that showed up in October to take him down? (Disappeared.) How's that Russia evidence going? (Top FBIinvestigator left the team because he knew it was a waste.) The lobbyists and WS leeches comment is odd, because that's what all administrations are full of.

Here's the link to the most recent survey results for this facility. Not good.

I've gotta agree with you here. I think that while Trump doesn't have a clear ideological agenda, he just wants to see things get done because that is how he measures success.

I do believe he does, but he's a pragmatist. He knows he has to work within both parties to gain consensus. He just has to bypass toad face and Mr. Ryan.

First of all, I do not form my opinions based on what Hillary Clinton thinks.

Second, you DO realize that she wasn't talking about Dreamers and DACA in that snippet, right? She was talking about the hordes of Honduran child migrants who showed up here on their own without their parents. And I disagreed with her on that. Another key difference here is that Clinton would never have placed so much importance on that specific policy that she'd have been willing to denounce and terminate her support of Obama if he'd disagreed, as so many angry Breitbart devotees appear to be doing to Trump

The entire second paragraph makes sense to anyone who doesn't have their head up their ass. Trump admitted to grabbin' poon on tape. The Russia investigation is proceeding and everyone connected to Trump has lawyered up bigly. And finally, no, all administrations are not full of lobbyists and Wall Street leeches with an array of conflicts of interest. Trump has gone above and beyond in the regard, and after campaigning on "draining the swamp", no less!

You've never "grabbed any poon"? I suspect you have. And what Trump did with the "dreamers" act, would have been decided against in the courts, to the same end. At least Trump kicked it back to Congress to fix it, which Obama should have done to begin with, and by his own admission, had no authority to implement anyway. And Russia is going nowhere. Its the libs last gasp before the long slow death spiral.

Trumpettes are NOT Americans!

ROFLOL.

So, in other words you don't know what the fvck you are talking about so you will try to distract by bringing in other topics. So very cute.

Oh, but I do like your "You'll be bring a knife to a gunfight." How incredibly cute. Moronic, of course. But undeniably cute.

Using words/names/phrases like "toad face" (or "Hitlery" . . . ) makes it very difficult to take anything in your posts seriously.

If you have an interest in having anyone take your posts seriously you might want to try to write like an adult rather than like a 13 year-old.

The above is an excellent example of a person in complete cognitive dissonance. The post begins a variant of "Wow, so, you're saying...," contains no counterargument, only random insults. He lost the argument already, but his brain is flailing around in order to avoid admitting so.

I don't really care a whit whether you take it seriously or not. This is more entertainment for me than anything, while I whittle away my day before I go out for my workout.

Oh, you know it, bro. But I wait until they beg me for it. By his own admission, Donny grabs first and then, I assume, they beg him to stop.
