Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Which law has Trump made via executive order? I agree with the premise of your comment. My comment was regarding gullible people falling for the the slanted reporting that makes the executive orders Trump is signing worse than they are. Here's the difference between Trump's orders and Obama's so far. Trump's are executive orders giving the executive branch orders and directives to follow the law. They counter/offset/resend the Obama executive orders that erroneously made or changed laws. Trump is leading from the oval office and Obama was legislating from the Oval office. There is a big difference. I don't think there are near as many of those "gullible" people there used to be. Trust in the media is at a very low level according to polling. Have you considered how close the popular vote was in the presidential election? What role did the media play in driving that? Are you trusting the same pollsters that concluded there's no way Trump would be the Republican nominee and that Hillary would be next president? Fight gullibility...

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Now imagine if the shoe was on the other foot and Hillary had won and was now doing a lot through executive action, there was talk of the nuclear option on confirming a new member of SCOTUS... Would we like that? Would she be praised for her bold leadership or would the media still be trying to figure out what hit them? Just something for thought if we are going to be intellectually honest and internally consistent. If we are going to be intellectually honest, the mainstream media wouldn't be anywhere near as critical and dishonest regardless what Hillary did. She was the press' golden girl that could do no wrong. Obama benefited from a much friendlier press than Trump has. The biased press is doing everything they can to play gotcha. We can't do anything about the press aside from dropping their revenue. My point was, if a Democrat had won and started issuing executive orders on firearms or their components, immigration, the (U)ACA and the environment, would we be going on and on about Executive Branch overreach or would we be saying "good for them?" Many people are happy now because their guy is in the WH and things are starting to go their way. Arguably, the actions taken by President Trump have been to scale back 8 years of federal and Executive Branch overreach. My point is, is this the example we want to be setting? "They did it, so we should too!" I'd honestly rather see the laws created by following the Constitutionally defined process to clarify these issues than to have enforcement of the laws subject to the will of the President.

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Trump is busy and he isn't ignoring the carry of guns. Here's an encouraging article. http://conservativetribune.com/trump-plan-2nd-amendment/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=PostBottomSharingButtons&utm_content=2017-01-23&utm_campaign=websitesharingbuttons Furthermore, Trump proposed a national right to carry, a national concealed carry reciprocity law that would compel states to recognize the concealed carry permits of any other state, similar to the way in which state driver’s licenses are accepted by all states today. Finally, Trump would lift the prohibition on military members carrying weapons on military bases and in recruiting centers, allowing trained military members to carry weapons to protect themselves from attacks by terrorists, criminals and the mentally unstable, as we have seen too often....

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

[about voter fraud] Unsubstantiated? Watch these videos. http://projectveritasaction.com/videos Most folks don't believe voter fraud in USA is a problem, including Ryan, McCain, Graham, and many others. See http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/315832-graham-to-trump-stop-lying-about-voter-fraud If there is any it certainly needs to be fixed. I can believe that some voter fraud does happen, especially on some small local elections, but 5 million in a national election... :confused5 So what? Who cares what those people think. Listen to what the liberal operatives admit. Just wait and see...

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Things are happening very fast in the oval office. The president seems to still be in campaign mode and concerned about things like inauguration day crowd size and popular vote so it doesn't seem like he'd be able to give much thought to what's happening. Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall to see how things are being developed and who is really doing it? Dale, you choose to not understand as is doesn't fit with your agenda and political position. Do you not realize the bigger picture that Trump is trying to bring attention? It's about the media being biased and dishonest, not the size of,the crowd. Hey, wait, what? I'm not passing judgment on anything. Just curious about how things are happening - why so much time is wasted on trivial things like crowd size in Spicer's first 2 press conferences. And then there's unsupported claims about voter fraud. Maybe the objective is to annoy and distract the left - ok, how does that help anything? Kid stuff? Unsubstantiated? Watch these videos. http://projectveritasaction.com/video...

The only reason liberals believe voter fraud is a myth is because it benefits liberals. Voter fraud is not unsubstantiated. It just hasn't been pursued because those that benefit from it have been in office. Like I said, the real issue is the biased lying press that the gullible liberals believe and follow. I realize liberals aren't much for principles and integrity. The press is more interested in discrediting the Trump administration and shaping the news rather than reporting it. That type of stuff can't go without response...

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

I've been debating with some millennial malcontents on Twitter because they are upset he hasn't completed all of his campaign promises such as build the wall and thinks he is going to renege on them. I am curious about Pres. Trump's decision to keep Comey. Any thoughts on that for me? patience daniel son.... Trump has done more in these TWO DAYS than Obama did in his first YEAR. It appears you misunderstood. That's what I'm telling the millennial malcontents. Do you have any insight to the quesion I did ask? The President of Mexico is doing everything but rushing the walls at the,White House to meet with Trump. Millenials expect everything, to happen instantly. There is more than just the last 8 years to overcome. Trump has not done, or said anything to give anyone the impression that he is not dedicated to fulfilling all of his campaign promises. The only ones to postulate that is the left wing media. If the people you are debating, are still getting their info from them, they are a lost cause, and will never catch up. Yep, I hear what you are saying. I'm saying,the same things. Do you have an opinion on Trump keeping Comey...

Unconfirmed report has Senate confirming Gen. Mattis as SecDef by vote of 98-1. I've seen it several places. Off to a good start...
