  • How Trump's Protectionism Would Destroy Auto Industry Jobs, Not Create Them

    <p>President Donald J. Trump didn't wait long to act on one of his signature campaign promises, announcing just moments after being sworn in as the country's 45th president that the U.S. intends to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and that he will renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement "to give American workers a fair deal."</p>

    Re riots in Portland and the police responding. I was thinking that perhaps the police were threatened by O-Me-Me when protesters walked on the freeway and so forth - that he would sic Loretta Lynch on them. Then I realized that no new AG has been voted in yet, right? Does that mean that Lynch is still in the position? Or is there a pro temp person in right now?? tx

    Leftists are creating an opening for Trump here by overplaying this. Form a commission, audit the vote in California, issue warrants for foreign nationals who voted illegally in our federal election. Then go state by state doing the same thing. This is a big win for Trump. Remember, Obama encouraged illegals to vote. Now the MSM want to tell us nobody listened to him? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfgEvgVC6Qs

    This is the NFL's biggest event of the year. This is the one that makes Billion's for the league. If you really want to send a message to them that we do not want to have your politics mixed with our football,this is the game to do it. Boycotting games in October and November just won't get the point across. This is THE time to do it I have read other suggestion to just boycott the half time show. That will never get the point across. They will still bet the multi billions in revenue because you would have tuned...
  • Organizer For DC Women’s March Against Trump Pictured Flashing the ISIS Sign

    01/23/2017 2:42:59 PM PST · by TigerClaws · 58 replies
    A picture of one of the organizers for the DC Women’s March is making the rounds on social media. Linda Sansour is seen flashing the ISIS sign. Hundreds of thousands of mostly female protesters participated in a ‘Women’s March’ in D.C. on Saturday. As noted previously, one of the organizers, Linda Sarsour is a Pro-Palestine Muslim activist. She also advocates for Sharia Law in America and has ties to terrorist organization, Hamas. Linda Sarsour is very vocal about her support for Palestine and her utter hatred for Israel. She has ties to the terrorist organization, Hamas as the Daily Caller...

    My comments on the Women's March: Attended Inauguration on Friday. Great event. People in the crowd looked like normal, every day Americans. Didn't really see many protestors. Saw 2 people removed by police. Only regret is that I didn't get to the Capitol earlier to get a better spot. Travelled back to the Mall area on Saturday for site seeing. Had tickets for the National Archives. Arrived for 11am with my tickets. Line was short. Felt Happy. Then a group of 5-6 women join the line after me. Hear them talking about wanting to go inside to use the restroom....

    The photo that the media has been showing of the Trump inauguration, that they have been using to FALSELY assert that the crowd as small, is a DECEPTION. The photo was not taken at noon when Trump was being sown in. Peter Mansbridge, the anchorman of The National on the CBC stated during the Jan 20 broadcast that the photo was taken AN HOUR BEFORE the ceremonies even began! IE: the picture was taken an hour before the 9:30 AM opening ceremonies when the crowd was still filling in at not yet at full capacity! The media is once again...

    I have completed exhaustive analysis of the disputed Trump crowd shot and the CNN gigapixel crowd shot. As much as it pains me to say, the two images match quite well and the disputed crowd shot is legitimate and represents the actual crowd size. There was no deception on the part of the media. I have four decades of experience as an advertising photographer. I am qualified to make this kind of analysis. As a Trump supporter and voter I think it does us a great disservice to not deal honestly with issues such as these. In this case even...
  • [Vanity]: LOVE TRUMPS HATE!! I wish that Trump and his supporters would appropriate this phrase

    01/22/2017 2:25:58 PM PST · by Maceman · 24 replies
    For the last 2-3 months, America has been treated to endless demonstrations of the hate-filled, bigoted, racist, America-hating and Constitution-hating left. We've seen numerous public riots and violence, outright threats and calls for Trump's assassination, endless videos on YouTube of snowflake meltdowns, brutal physical attacks on Trump supporters, vicious bullying on college campuses and social media, and bitter biased lies and slanted anti-Trump reporting in the "professional media." I think it's time time to turn the tables on the totalitarian leftists and their bitter out-of-control hatred. I think taking over the phrase "Love TRUMPS Hate" and using it against would...
  • We Need A National Prom Queen

    We really need to have a National Prom Queen. This would allow the Democrats to vote their feelings without damaging the country. The President of The United States is our Commander-In-Chief and the Chief Executive of the federal government. The President is tasked with protecting us and giving us government that is efficient and effective. Our National Prom Queen would also have important duties. She would hand out sandwiches at the homeless shelter. She would play golf. She would make speeches about herself. In short, Obama was a pitiful President, but he was a great National Prom Queen. The Democrats...

    The downside of the 2016 Trump victory is this: For four -- and possibly eight -- years, we will have to endure the daily distortions, perversions, and misrepresentations of absolutely anything Donald Trump says. Case in point: President Trump, in his Inaugural address, said that from now on we will put America first. The left immediately jumped on this one phrase, noting that it was used by Charles Lindberg and isolationists in World War II who wanted us not to enter the war. Thus, they extrapolate, Trump is an anti-Semite who loves Hitler and wants to be a Nazi. Let...

    It’s the quality of man that makes a difference, Though many are shattered souls from endless temptation. Constant bombardment of sensual propaganda, and to retain a translucent dignity when all seems lost. Its unnerving pressure to do what needs to be done, Though the task is simple, the will to succeed is daunting.

    After the slap down in his inaugural address against the elites and picking a fight with the intel community and the military industrial complex in State Dept, I'm not quite sure if Trump truly knows or perhaps he does know how entrenched those career people are. Different presidents come and go but these people are there seemly forever and do what they want to do and will go around a presidents viewpoint and disregard what the President wants. Reagan had problems with them in 1980s and I fear that they may do dastardly things against President Trump . I'm not...
