I've been so busy counting Trumps days off playing golf (since he ridiculed Obama for staying on the golf course and swearing he'd be all business when he got to Washington) and all the executive orders he's signed, since the Republicans couldn't even pass gas in the majority House & Senate. I have a feeling, in January, they'll have some "much needed rest time out of Washington" ...
deflection tactic
due in part to significant democrat filibusters which you used to whine incessantly about....but being a hypocrite, now ignore.
You really need to be spending more time making resume contacts ... no wife, no job, and plenty of time being a natural born asshole.
Go count the bristles on your hairbrush, shithead, and ...
........ 
Did you ever consider that your childish attempts at insulting and name calling in lieu of actual substantive responses might be the reason your like to post ratio is lower than mine?
no where near what your "obstructionist" party has done for how many years?
The Cost To Our Economy From Republican Obstruction And Sabotage
The Republican political strategy has been to obstruct efforts to help the economy for everyone but the wealthiest few, and then campaign on complaints that the economy isn’t helping anyone but the wealthiest few. It’s working.
In President Obama’s July 12 weekly address he said, “So far this year, Republicans in Congress have blocked every serious idea to strengthen the middle class.” He could have said, “Since 2009.” Since the 2009 “stimulus,” Republicans have obstructed pretty much every effort to help the economy. In the Senate they have filibustered hundreds of bills, and since the “stimulus” they have managed to keep anything from passing that might help the economy.
In the House, Republicans have refused to allow votes on anything that seriously would help the economy, instead passing only tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, spending cuts on essential things like maintaining our infrastructure and scientific research, and cutting regulations that protect people and the environment from being harmed by corporations seeking profit.
Republicans have blocked every effort since the stimulus to maintain infrastructure, hire teachers, raise the minimum wage, give equal pay for women, stop special tax breaks for millionaires corporations (especially oil companies), stop tax breaks for sending jobs out of the country, provide student loan relief, help the long-term unemployed, and more. Instead they insist on even more tax breaks for oil companies and billionaires, on cutting environmental protections, deregulating oil companies, and so on.
Obstruction Using Senate Filibusters
How many bills have been filibustered by Senate Republicans since President Obama took office? Bloomberg’s Jonathan Bernstein, in “All Filibusters, All the Time,” writes, “The correct count of how many bills have been filibustered during Obama’s presidency is: approximately all of them.”
Here are just a few of the hundreds of bills Senate Republicans have filibustered since President Obama took office — just a few:

Here are just a few of the hundreds of bills Senate Republicans have filibustered since President Obama took office — just a few:
- Infrastructure bills
- The following headlines are from last week’s “Full Employment Is More Than Possible. It Is Essential.“
- 2011: “Republicans filibuster Obama infrastructure bill”
- 2012: “‘Phantom filibuster’ blocking path forward for highway bill, says Reid“
- 2013: “Bipartisan Transportation and Housing Bill Filibustered“
- Equal Pay for Women
- Minimum wage increase
- Creating American Jobs and Ending Offshoring Act
- Bring Jobs Home Act – stop tax breaks for moving jobs and production facilities out of the country
- Teachers and First Responders Back to Work Act of 2011 – rehire 400,000 teachers, firefighters, paramedics and police officers.
- Student loan reform – ease the crushing burden of student loan debt by at least allowing refinancing to lower interest rates
- Extended unemployment benefits – for the long-term unemployed
- Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) — let working people join unions – filibustered in 2007, killed by threat of filibuster 2009
- Public Safety Employer-Employee Cooperation Act – let public safety officers join unions
- The Buffett rule – ensure millionaires pay a comparable tax rate to middle-class Americans
- Repeal Big Oil Tax Subsidies Act
- What would it have meant for the economy and jobs to launch a post-stimulus effort to maintain and modernize our infrastructure? How about reversing the tax structure that pays companies to move jobs out of the country? How about equal pay for women? How about a minimum wage increase? How about hundreds of thousands of teachers and first responders going back to work? How about being able to organize into unions to fight for wages, benefits and safer working conditions? How about relief from crushing student loan debt?
All of those things blocked, and people wonder what the economy is just slogging along…
Obstruction And Economic Sabotage In The House
In the House Republican leadership has been following what is called the “Hastert Rule” to obstruct bills that would win with a majority vote. This is not a real “rule”; it is a partisan method of limiting what Democrats and moderate Republicans can accomplish. Republican leadership will not bring a bill up for a vote unless a majority of Republicans are for it. In other words, even if a bill would pass with most Democrats and some Republicans voting in favor, it can’t even get a vote unless it fits with Republican doctrine. (Actually that would be Republican funder doctrine, which is basically oil companies, Wall Street and a few ultra-billionaires.)
So instead of looking at what has been blocked in the House, which would be literally everything Democrats and up to 49 percent of Republicans think would help the economy, we should look at what has passed. What has passed is a record of economic sabotage. Republicans claim there are more 300 bills passed by the House that are held up in the Senate. (Note that The Washington Post took a look at this and found that “In 11 of the past 19 Congresses – more than half – more than 300 bills were waiting for Senate action by the time the Congress completed its work.”)
Of particular note among the passed bills is the Republican “Path to Prosperity Budget” (a.k.a. the “Ryan budget”). It is described as “Cuts spending & implements pro-growth reforms that boost job creation.” It dramatically cuts taxes on the rich. It privatizes Medicare. It cuts spending on infrastructure, health care for the poor, education, research, public-safety, and low-income programs. It turns Medicaid, food stamps, and other poverty programs into state block grants.
Tax cuts aren’t going to fund schools or repair roads and bridges. And lo and behold, this Republican budget that passed the House cuts taxes and cuts funding for even maintaining – never mind modernizing – our vital infrastructure needs. This is a budget of economic sabotage.
Other Republican House “jobs” bills, listed at Speaker Boehner’s “jobs” page include:- Repeal ObamaCare
- Working Families Flexibility Act – Eliminates overtime pay
- Preserving Work Requirements for Welfare Programs Act
- Approve Keystone pipeline, to build a pipeline across the country so Canadian oil can be soil to China, easing an oil glut here and bringing prices back up.
- More offshore oil drilling
- Student Success Act – Promotes charter schools, cuts federal programs and support for schools
- Coal Residuals Reuse and Management Act – blocks regulations on coal ash
- Energy Consumers Relief Act – block government regulation of oil companies and carbon pollution
- Stop Government Abuse Act – “Provides small business owners with tools to protect against government harassment.”
- Keep the IRS Off Your Health Care Act – “Stops the IRS from implementing the president’s health care law”
- Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act – “Requires congressional approval of any new regulation with an economic cost of at least $100 million”
- National Strategic and Critical Minerals Production Act – Facilitates the development of strategic and critical minerals used to support manufacturing jobs. (Note Senate Republicans filibustered this.)
- Protecting States’ Rights to Promote American Energy Security Act – Prevents regulations on fracking
- Responsible And Professionally Invigorating Development Act – Expedites the approval for new energy projects
- Electricity Security & Affordability Act – Protects coal-fired plants from regulation
Preventing Government Waste & Protecting Coal Mining Jobs in America Act – prevents coal regulations - Success and Opportunity through Quality Charter Schools Act
- North American Energy Infrastructure Act – promotes cross-border pipelines.
- The Domestic Prosperity and Global Freedom Act – Expedites the approval of liquefied natural gas export applications
- Lowering Gas Prices to Fuel an America That Works Act – expanding production of oil and gas
- Permanent Internet Tax Freedom Act – Permanently extends a ban on Internet access taxes
- OK, got that? Their “jobs” bills include things like cutting government support for schools, stopping regulations on coal ash, requiring people receiving federal assistance to work, and drill-baby-drill. Oh, the list even includes bills that Republicans filibustered in the Senate.
It is not clear how getting rid of public schools and replacing them with charter, private and home schools is about “jobs.” It also is not clear how banning taxes on Comcast internet access “creates jobs.”
Many of these so-called “jobs” programs are really about subsidizing and assisting the oil and coal companies that provide so much of the funding for the Republican Party and conservative propaganda apparatus. (Note that Koch Industries is at heart an oil company.) They’re just called “jobs” programs because people need jobs – because Republicans have been blocking actual jobs programs.
And what about direct sabotage? Who can forget the Republican hostage-taking of the debt ceiling, when they threatened to take down the entire world economy unless we cut back on things like maintaining our infrastructure, scientific research, public health, hiring teachers and other things we do to make our lives better? There was a direct cost of $18.9 billion, but then there was the resulting credit rating downgrade, the pullback by businesses worried that they might actually do this, and so on.
Who can forget the terrible cost to the economy of the government shutdown? There was a direct cost of $24 billion, but also the reduced fourth-quarter GDP growth from 3 percent to 2.4 percent. And the continuing harm from loss of confidence in our government’s ability to, well, govern.
The Voting Public Doesn’t Know
The Senate filibusters of real job and economic recovery efforts, the House’s so-called “jobs and growth” bills, the debt ceiling fights, the cuts in economically necessary spending like infrastructure maintenance and finally the government shutdown combine to show an incredible record of economic sabotage. This was the Republican plan, we saw it unfold, and now we see Republican campaigns running against the “Obama economy.”
However, the voting public is largely unaware of this record of obstruction and sabotage and the effect on the recovery. Seriously, go out and ask around. If you are reading this you are likely a highly-informed person. So you might be aware that there have been filibusters, but maybe not that there have been up to 500 or more Republicans filibusters.
The corporate media obscures the obstruction and sabotage. The corporate/conservative propaganda apparatus blasts out diversion and distraction. And, of course, the Democrats are not presenting a unified explanation of how Republicans are hurting the economy and how they would make things better. (Until recently President Obama blamed “Congress” in general, and the media still does.)
If Republicans take the Senate this fall, will they continue the obstruction and sabotage? What if they later also take the presidency? Here’s the thing, they know their tax cut, deregulate, smaller government nonsense does not work to boost the economy. Any economist will tell you, history will tell you, and common sense will tell you that taking money out of the economy won’t help the economy. It’s bad enough now, what happens to the country if they win? It’s well past time to be fed up with this. Vote, make sure your friends and family vote. Volunteer to talk to people about the urgency of voting. It’s all we have left.
By the way, here is what that 2009 stimulus spending accomplished — we went from losing more than 800,000 private sector jobs a month to gaining 100-250,000 a month: - https://ourfuture.org/20140923/the-cost-to-our-economy-from-republican-obstruction-and-sabotage
When I initially started this thread I did so with the intention, if not hope, that others would see things as I did, that is "as they are" and not as they'd "wish they'd be", "AND NOT THROUGH ROSE COLOURED GLASSES!" Alas that was not to be! Unfortunately for some at least, those rose coloured glasses not only impaired their vision, their minds (or brains if you so prefer) also had been affected by those same rose coloured glasses so as to have them see things as they wished them to be rather than as they are! This is most unfortunate! So here's hoping for a reset! The concern of most common sense people I come in contact with, both domestically and internationally (I do travel internationally very extensively) is "When are Americans going to wake up and recognize the disaster steering themselves in the face via the dastardly actions of their, perhaps mentally unbalanced, President!" This is what gave this gave birth to this thread's title! So let's stick to the subject matter, refrain from personal insults, and deal with the facts. Twenty-seven Head Doctors put out a book outlining why they believe this President has mental problems, all of which were supported by ample analysis and historical accepted mental methodologies! Numerous others who have known him personally over the years have attested to it! His own (current) wife, on public TV, once stated, and I quote, "I have two children at home to care for!" Unquote.
This past week his calling a black woman a "Dog" is appalling! Just today this headline hit the press:
"President Donald Trump announced Wednesday he has revoked former CIA director John Brennan's security clearance, marking an unprecedented use of a president's authority over the classification system to strike back at one of his prominent critics." In addition to Mr. Brennan he named ten+ others that are on his hit list!
What's next? Who's next? Where next?
WAKE UP AMERICANS! WAKE UP! PLEASE!
AND DO IT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!
P.S. AND FOR THE NAY SAYERS, "IT'S NOT THAT WE WANT TO SEE THE PRESIDENT FAIL! IT'S THAT WE DON'T WANT TO SEE THE UNITED STATES FAIL ! THIS WORLD DOESN'T NEED ANOTHER THIRD WORLD COUNTRY!"

to late...this Hitler like drone is creating a country molded after pre war germany!
alienating our allies...creating hate and confusion here at home turning us against each other
driving more people into poverty while taking care of those who are his friends
condemning the press who speak out against him
using our own law enforcement to punish those he doesn't like
basically eliminating free speech!
all the while the right sits back allowing all this to happen and basking in the tax breaks and etc other perks he has been feeding them.....in the republican party he has an approval rating of almost 80%......that's what hurts the country
party over country!

anyone care to place a bet on why Manafort did not fight in anyway against all the charges against him?
counting on a Trump pardon?

Well written ! That's exactly how we feel!
I totally agree! This man is NO PRESIDENT! He's a mental disaster that has found a place to happen! Unfortunately with the help of the country's nemeses, Russia, and a friend from within their mutual admiration society, Valdimir, he holds a position which could threaten world order, both financially and its peace! What is even more unfortunate for society, he holds control over a party of latent co-conspirators or, at best, blind fools!
Oh, I see it clearly now - because you used your feelings instead of facts.
Is that not what you are doing? looking through your rose glasses at things the way you "wish they'd be"? that is why you started this thread is it not? to gain support for you feelings? You are wishing things to be the way YOU want them to be, nothing more.
"Refrain from personal insults" - as you insult every person in the world that does not agree with you, obviously they don't have common sense, according to you. I travel internationally as well. I have to disagree with you on all fronts. Maybe that is because of the company we both keep and its not a true representation, in anyway, of what people really think abroad. You post no supporting documents and we are to believe that you alone are an authority that Americans need to "wake up". Maybe we have - ever think of that?
And your links to theses reports? 27 doctors, really? I don't remember him being examined mentally by 27 doctors. I would like to read these reports. Or do you mean to say that out of MILLIONS of doctors, 27 of them have an OPINION that the POTUS has mental health issues, but they really haven't examined him like they would an actual patient. Maybe this comes from a few people who put it in a book because they were pissed that they lost their job. I'm betting if I really wanted to I could find 27 doctors out of MILLIONS to all agree that Obama, or even Bush had mental issues also.
Ever stop to think that maybe he called her a Dog because of her attitude in the workplace and not because she is a "black woman"? I have had a few employees that I had a few choice words for, but I assure you, it had nothing to do with their race, color, or sexual orientation. It's kind of like Rosie O'Donnell - She's a pig no mater how you slice it (well, some of it might be bacon).
Maybe it's time the white house got shook up a bit. Are you reacting to headlines or are you really trying to understand why these people are getting fired? I don't like Trump either, but I'm glad he has some balls.
We are not going to becomes a 3rd world country anytime soon - Side note: I mentioned that "in jest" a while back, I was promptly grilled by one on the left (I won't Mention Any names beCause it just wouldn't be right That there is no way we will become a 3rd world country - And I have to agree, we won't any time soon. Only Socialism will put us on a path to self destruction. It's just funny because the left screams this all the time with no rebuttal.
Funny how the left is tolerant and all accepting of our differences in all Races, Religions, Sexual Preference, and even to criminals and criminal activity - but god forbid you have a difference of a opinion. LOL
Sorry Driller4Me, You talk a nice talk, but don't really give any substance to change any ones mind. How about posting facts to your claims, give us commentary on WHY you don't like Trump and the changes he made. Tell us WHY you disagree and maybe your thoughts on what you would have done differently. Stop letting the media tell you what you should think of the man. Stop knee jerk reacting to head lines. I have shown time and time again that the headline does not equate to the real story. Telling everyone they are stupid for not agreeing with your view point is nothing more than a bully tactic, "******* them to agree". I know many conservatives that are genuinely afraid to say anything in public. Some are called names, some have been spit on, other have things wrong with their food, you name it. If it is wrong to do those things to a person of different color or race, then what makes it right to do it to those with a different opinion? Your post isn't driven out of fear for America, your post is driven and fueled by hate. If Hillary had won the election and 27 doctors said she was unstable - would you still have made this post?
You also have to realize we can't just take him out of office, If he is as bad as you claim, then he will be gone in 2020. So relax, it will all be over soon.

Chris Cuomo Nails Why Trump Supporters Defend Everything He Does
Ed Mazza,HuffPost
CNN’s Chris Cuomo is calling on President Donald Trump’s supporters to demand higher standards from their leader.
So far, however, they’ve refused to do so. Cuomo wrote on Twitter on Tuesday that their support has “a religious quality” that leads them to defend the president almost as a matter of faith:
Christopher C. Cuomo
✔ @ChrisCuomo
The lying is unprecedented. That’s clear. What is also clear is that trump support has a religious quality to it: their belief in him is not about fact but faith in some set of expectations it seems. So it doesn’t matter what he says or who lies abt it.
Abby D. Phillip
✔ @abbydphillip
Last night on Fox @KatrinaPierson denied that she said "he said it" on a conference call about the alleged "n-word tape."
Now, she's acknowledging that there was a call. The audio seems clear: she said "he said it. He's embarrassed by it."
Credibility problems on all fronts.
Earlier in the day, Trump called former White House aide and “Apprentice” contestant Omarosa Manigault Newman a “dog” after she published a book critical of him and said the president had used a racial slur.
Cuomo said the president seems to get away with insults and language that most people ― even his supporters ― wouldn’t accept:
“This kind of ugly talk is contagious,” he warned. “It creates a coarseness that leads to unintelligent confrontation.”
Cuomo said we teach our ******* respect because it matters, and he urged Trump supporters to stop defending the president when he uses this type of language.
“This kind of ugly talk is contagious,” he warned. “It creates a coarseness that leads to unintelligent confrontation.”
Cuomo called on people to demand better from the president as well as all of our leaders.
“Demand they disagree with decency. Demand they help us to be better, not worse,” he said. “Don’t let Trump off the hook by forgiving his language as a form of leadership. It isn’t.”

Sometimes a "no response" is the appropriate response!
they have it in their mind how it is....facts play no part in it......nothing you say or provide will change that...they have no morale's or ethics and just want to push their agenda on others
they are against minorities....people who try and work for a living by denying them decent wages and benefits...they hide under the cloak of religion...and will at all costs prevent anyone from taking their control away...….there is no reason nor logic to what they say or do other than to keep you under their control
under a normal conversation arguing with them is futile....they in their minds have all the answers they need and want
when and IF they present something with a link...maybe then...but the majority of the time that link is not a quality one and the real facts can be found on most search engines
This must be what happened to the left wing.
Ironic isn't it? You can pick just about any page in any of these political forums and find a post from someone on the left using derogatory remarks or calling someone <insert insult here>. Not defending Trump, I agree above all others the POTUS needs to watch his P's and Q's. But as usual, the left condemns him for doing what the left does on a daily basis. And just because he is brash, isn't grounds to remove him from office.
Can anyone say ANTIFA? Or how about the senator that openly called for harassment to anyone you see from the right out on the street - a gang violent mentality. All that is OK with you guys?
And you are the worst of them, Insult after insult. You are completely wrong on so many levels. Again you spout your feelings but no evidence to back it up. All you do is parrot the news media based on head lines alone. You don't even read the articles - the head line sounds good so you post it.
Have some more kool-aid.
No, your mistaken - that is EXACTLY what the left does. I have asked for links numinous times on different topics and crickets - Instead I am told the left don't need to prove any claim. The left complained about Trump calling "Fake News" and now embrace it and claim everything the right presents as "fake news". LOL You guys argue like Flat Earthers do, I would not be surprised if most on the left are flat earthers.
From now on you all will be preaching to the choir. It is obvious non of you are interested in a civil discussion about facts, you just want to project your but-hurt feelings and kick and scream until you get your way.
Because you can't dispute logic over feelings.
