Trump is a big, big problem (Everything you want in a short libtard editorial)
The Kokomo Perspective ^ | July 5, 2017

Posted on 07/08/2017 3:39:16 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

While the story concerning President Donald Trump hanging fake covers of Time, featuring none other than himself, in multiple Trump resorts seems like it should be a minor affair, it really isn’t.

It’s emblematic of just what sort of person we have serving as our president.

He’s self-absorbed and possesses such a high opinion of himself that he’s incapable of recognizing his own errors, while simultaneously unable to remember the campaign promises that earned him his base.

The problem is a portion of those who support the man also don’t care enough to be upset that the campaign promises he’s made aren’t being attempted.

The latest efforts in the healthcare battle in the nation’s capital are emblematic of this politician’s ways. Story after story and study after study show that areas leaning heavily toward Trump will be the portions of the country most affected by the president’s budget proposals.

Trump’s campaign promises about Medicaid, for example, seemingly were forgotten in the president’s budget proposal. And that’s just one example.

Alas, such criticisms are likely to fall on deaf ears as long as Fox news is the only source of information Trump supporters take in.

This is akin to Trump’s tendency to simply ignore facts, like every intelligence agency stating Russia meddled in our election. He refuses to acknowledge this fact and instead canoodles with Russian diplomats, enemies of the United States, in the Oval Office.

He’s forged a political career built upon a foundation of lies as he’s racked up mistruth after mistruth and broken promise after promise.

As problems mount around the United States and we’re faced with serious issues, we need a serious leader.

Trump is not that leader. He also has not surrounded himself with individuals capable of propping him up either. Are we honestly supposed to believe that the likes of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump will make the right decisions for this country? Unlikely.

Russia meddled in our election.
Yeah? If it did, it wouldn’t be the first time - and Democrats were pretty happy with Russian alternate saber rattling and “peace offensives” back in the day. And for sure Russia didn’t meddle in our election any more than Mexico did.

And for certain sure Russia didn’t meddle any more in our election than Barak Obama openly did in Israel’s election.

Screaming “the Russians!” just isn’t all that impressive in that context.

. . . And the US government meddles in elections in all of the states, too - the FEC simply is incompatible with freedom of association and freedom of the press.

I’ve heard it said that when you lose one of your senses, the others become more acute to compensate. Since leftists have no sense of humor, their sense of self-importance goes through the roof to compensate.

The paper is often criticized as being liberal, because of the paper’s strong support of organized labor. The owner and publisher of the paper, Donald “Donnie” Wilson, was arrested for illegal gambling in a sting by the local prosecutor, Jim Fleming, who Wilson believes held a grudge against him for negative press coverage.

Even high IQ (I didn’t say “intelligent) liberals cannot understand humor or irony. Everything spoken or written by someone who is not one of them must be taken literally and in the worst possible light. Humor to a liberal is the Catholic Priest slipping on a pile of canine ordure, hitting his head on a Crucifix and dying HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!snort sneer HAHAHAHAHA!!!! If Kaczinsky tells a Polack joke they are traumatically horrified and want him arrested and imprisoned.

Watching him react to war widows and mothers and to other misfortunates and you will not be deluded that he is “self-absorbed.” He can seem “full of himself” but such a one tends to be less successful in business as opposed to being purely in Entertainment.

Yes, indeed. I was a Cruzian in the primaries until Cruz deflated and got petulant when Mr. Trump said mean things about him. Cruz showed he would be wholly insufficient as President and Trump showed he knew how to hit all the right buttons of his rivals and enemies and that he would hit those buttons.

In regard to his campaign promises only New Gingrich approached how fast he has been effecting his CPs. As regards Obamacare well that remains to be seen. He is still working on that.
