Maybe he is playing the two against each other. This is for Russia’s consumption.

It’s disturbing Trump just flip flops one position after another. The Deep state, the Swamp have won, he has joined them. Looks like we will have just another president with crony capitalism running amok.

Once you know what the people in the know know, you start to see they weren’t so crazy after all.

It’s obvious that the real battle being fought is between Trump and the deep state, or DC swamp or whatever you want to call it. But, due to Trumps drunken monkey kung fu style politics, it’s hard to tell if he is winning.

Why? because he’s making deals and getting stuff in return? I’m so disappointed with the lack of faith in our new president in so many on here.

I realize that the world looks a lot different and more complex when you’re president but his inconsistencies are becoming manifold. I support Trump but am becoming more and more concerned about his vacillating on issues and the current lack of clarity and direction with respect to his legislative agenda.

The country desperately needs for him to succeed. Time for him to up his game. Big League.

OF COURSE NATO is obsolete.

The question is why is Trump now telling us it’s not?

Well, if the delinquent members are going to meet their defense spending commitments, I’d say that’s excellent progress.

Sorry but Trump is beginning to be a disappointment.

Seems he pressured NATO to make changes and they did:

“The secretary-general and I had a productive discussion on what more NATO can do in the fight against terrorism,” Trump said at Wednesday’s press conference. “I complained about that a long time ago and they made a change and now they do fight terrorism.” “I said it was obsolete,” he continued. “It is not longer obsolete.”
