It is:
PRESIDENT Trump Is Doing What He Said He’d Do
I think Nate should have taken Trump more seriously. Didn’t he predict Hilary to win by some ridiculous percent right up to the end?
I can forgive Trump for getting right to work. Not being a seasoned politician, he doesn’t understand the concept of lying, deceit, and duplicitous behavior more experienced politicians have mastered.
Fox Business just said a poll is out showing 57% support the EO terror ban.
The leftists are pissing off normal Americans. They’re doubling down on what cost them the election.
Hope they keep it up!
His word is his bond. Trump’s bond.
And not is PRESIDENT Trump doing what he said he would do, he is doing it all at remarkable speed.
It is to make a snowflake’s head hurt. If only from the weeping.
How dare Donald Trump keep his campaign promises, unlike Barack “I’ll close Guantanamo” Obama.
At some point, you have to say your models can't be used for any announcements, or you have to believe all the polls your models are fed by are so corrupted that outcomes cannot be had in this day and time.
Nate Silver is a friggin’ IDIOT!
With the exception of RCP, 538 was most generous to trump with about 30% win chance vs 1-10% for others. He was way off in primaries thoug.
In the final two days, between 65-72%.
A politician doing what he said he would do is so unfathomable the only explanation is that Trump is irrational and irresponsible ... a danger!
Thank you, Mr. President.
Not to defend Silver too much, but The New York Times was giving Trump an 11% chance, ElectionBettingOdds a 9% chance, and the Huffington Post a 2% chance. Giving Trump better than one-in-four odds made Silver certainly more optimistic about his chances than all the other major mainstream odds sites.
I keep coming back to the journalist who said that you can take Trump either seriously or literally. I really thought this was insightful.
Trump is a salesman and an entertainer. Like Reagan, Trump is a great communicator. Sometimes he is brash. Sometimes he over-states. The news media insists on taking him LITERALLY which means that they often portray him as a bit of a clown.
BUT if you pay attention to what President Trump is really saying, he is hitting all of the important points, People listen. People get it. People want the things that President Trump is doing. The people take Trump SERIOUSLY.
Nothing will go right for the media until they start taking the President of the United States seriously. Everyone else does.
I’m very happy with what he’s done so far.
There is one thing he must do soon, though.
He promised to end Obama’s illegal DACA program.
Even if they don’t rescind papers already issued, they must stop issuing new ones.
Every day that passes another 150 illegal aliens are added to the 750,000 already given work permits.
Silver took flak from the left for consistently predicting a higher probability of a Trump win than the other sites. It bothered lefties because !) he predicted 2008 and 2012 with pretty good accuracy, and 2) he is a self-proclaimed progressive
I'm waiting and hoping to watch them rundown like windup toys as their amygdalas burn out.
My insight of the morning: Mr. Trump lies to his enemies, but tells the truth to his criends. His enemies amplify his lies, while his friends are laughing at them and reveling in the truth.
