Trump wants to buy Greenland for the United States. Sounds like a good idea to me.

Honestly, I'd love to see that happen. For many reasons. After all, the U.S. bought Alaska from Russia. Why not Greenland?

“May God ruin Trump” says Tlaib’s grandmother.

Trump may not get any votes from Middle East grandmothers.

BTW Israel granted Tlaib a humanitarian visa to the West Bank to visit her grandmother, but Tlaib said no.

What do they mean if he breaks his promise to gun owners? The "eight year assault" on gun rights is now in year ten, with Trump enacting more restrictions on my gun rights in two years than Obama did in eight.

He is under enormous pressure to implement some kind of restrictions. I am truly concerned about this. The emotions of the moment are running rampant. Dems and the leftist media are continuously spouting fake polls saying Americans want more gun control. We gun owners are under a serious threat at this time.

President Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday that forgives all student loan debt for any permanently disabled U.S. military veterans.
Hmmm. I looked for this story on CNN but didn't find it. I must have just overlooked it. :rolll

Awesome news, awesome move.

Wait didn't Obama do the same thing. Oh No he didn't. Would have been one of his greatest accomplishments, they would have shouted it from the roof tops for weeks. Interviews with disabled vets, struggling to pay bills. Would have been an entire wing of his library.

He dominates the news even when there really isn't any news.

So he tweeted that the US wanted to buy Greenland. Tweeted a photo of a Trump Tower in Greenland and promised he would not do that.
PM of Denmark who "owns" Greenland, said it wasn't for sale and we don't buy and sell countries in this day and age.
Cancels scheduled trip to Denmark next month, says he will hang out with his buddy in Poland for an extra day. Queen of Denmark probably not excited with her PM.

Most likely in the future small countries who are friendly with the US and exist only because of our protection, may respond more politely when Trump asks them something in a tweet.

Says Jews who vote Democratic are disloyal. Press naturally takes offense even though most everyone has privately said the same thing. Why support Democrats who hate Israel and want it destroyed?

Trump has god complex

Whew what a last few days.

Trump tells Republicans may begin cutting Social Security and Medicare after he is re-elected. It’s a second term project.

Really?

I think this is a huge misstep. First, it is not right to cut social security and medicaid to folks who paid for it to begin with. What they need to do is cut welfare.

Duke Psychiarist on CNN says Trump May be responsible for many more million deaths than Hitler, Stalin and Mao.

Calling Trump crazy is an insult to all his patients.

Sounds like Russian lies. I have a friend that heard Trump say that (insert off the wall stuff). It’s baffling that bews reports don’t have to be cited or even say the source. Just print and retract later... geez!
