-—pearl clutching——

Well, not exactly. It’s much worse. It would seem that some have lost bowel control

This piece resorts to a Trent Lott interview. That indicates complete loss of mental faculties

Again, here is Trump, operating inside his opponents’ ODDA Loops!

What they call a “scatter shot” communications style is actually an method of effectively engaging a number of objectives simultaneously.

Trump has subordinates who execute the actions, but Trump’s tweets lay the groundwork and effectively paralyze the other side.

Colonel Boyde would be Proud!

His tweets about Ahnold really cracked me up!

As executive producer did he not have a say in who was hired to replace him? Did he choose wrong?

I want Trump to continue to tweet! I joined Twitter just to be connected to him. I have only a few people that I follow on Twitter. Majority are the Trump family.

Same here. I follow Trump, Pence, Lou Dobbs, Malkin, Wiki Leaks, and LS.

I hope Trump stays with the tweets and kills the MSM!

Lott said Washington tended to get much more done when people weren’t embarrassed. “I prefer to communicate with a wink and nod,” Lott continued. “I am an advocate of smoke-filled back rooms — I was very much an advocate over the years, the old conference committee meetings. That’s where I used to tell my colleagues, ‘We'll fix it there.’”

and THAT is the problem and WHY we don't trust your kind

It’s brilliant. Like the rallies, it allows him to go over the heads of the media at all times.

If you sent crayons, coloring books, and a stuffed animal puppy to Lott he wouldn’t understand why.

“His tweets about Ahnold really cracked me up! “

True, but his last one is the killer. After two silly tweets about Ahnold, he SLAMS HOME the fact that our ‘Intelligence’ Agencies refuse to keep secrets...when they see a political gain for their side.

“He (Lott) added: ‘The tweets unnerve me.’”

I hope he’s not such a delicate doily that he isn’t able to clutch his pearls. Poor baby. Who cares what Lott thinks, anyhow?

Maybe you should cut your losses now and find someone who shares your values. I could date/marry outside of my faith, and outside of my race, before I could even consider dating a liberal.

If you don’t survive DJT’s first year in office, later on you’ll be saying, “Well, that’s one year of my life I’ll never get back.”

(But I’m the Queen Of Bad Decisions. My advice may not be worth all that much.) :(

That article made me laugh! The only people who feel threatened are those who are suddenly irrelevant. Political consultants, squishy Republicans, and the leftists.

Any woman who hates Trump will demand, sooner or later, to carry your nuts in her purse. That’s exactly why they hate Trump, because they can’t control him. These same women hate expressions of exuberant manhood from their own men. I’m not advising you to dump her, I am saying, observe carefully.
