Believe in America: Trump reboots his presidency with condemnation of hatred, a rousing vision of what country can be by 250th anniversary of independence and a heartbreaking appearance by the widow of SEAL hero whose father snubbed him

• President Trump addressed both houses of Congress in a Joint Session just over a month into his presidency
• New U.S. leader channeled Kennedy to speak of the 'courage to share the dreams that fill our hearts'
• But bluntly political speech also tells the House and the Senate to take action on his agenda
• He told them to 'increase funding for our veterans,' pass 'historic tax reform', 'repeal and replace Obamacare,' and 'help ensure new parents have paid family leave'
• Most electrifying moment of address lasting slightly over one hour was when he paid tribute to William 'Ryan' Owens, SEAL killed on raid in Yemen last month
• The SEAL's widow Carryn Owens sat beside Ivanka Trump and cried as the divided Congress united for the longest ovation of the evening
• Trump refused to back down on immigration saying: 'what would you say to the American family that loses their jobs, their income, or their loved one?'
• Opening sentences of speech robustly condemned anti-Semitic attacks and allegedly racially motivated Kansas City shooting of two Indian men
• Democratic women wore white in reference to fight for suffrage and made thumbs down gestures to speech

And just think: If he didn’t run, that would have been Hillary shrieking up there for an hour talking about globalism.

“Interesting. I guess my Latin teachers lied to me!”

My Latin teacher had some disease that he would fall asleep mid sentence and then wake up and finish the sentence....

“I wonder if they know the origin of the “thumbs down” gesture?

It was a gesture used by bloodthirsty mobs in the arenas of ancient Rome to call for a public killing”

There isn’t two brain cells to rub together in the whole lot. Any original thinking is left to their 20 something Haaarvard educated, Marxist leaning Staff.

I know. I know.

1. Return to segregation. Sweeten up the traditionally negro colleges which are a hotbed of white hatred.

2. Suck up to the feminist baby killers. What could possibly go wrong with that?.,m

Trump may go off on a campaign to foster love for him where not has existed before and never will, but he has a cabinet that will chart and follow the straight Conservative course.

Read our local never trump troll posting at # 20!.
that never trump troll needs to be yanked from this site.
here to divide us

You two links go to the same article about the HBCUs. What you also neglected to mention is that the HBCU revokes the prior EO by Obama on HBCUs. It does not review the revoked order but I’d suspect that it was far more preferential than this new one.

Sorry—my coffee is brewing now.

Here’s the link: https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/02/28/president-donald-j-trump-signs-hr-255-hr-321-and-hjres-40

And a bad Obama EO is no excuse for a bad Trump EO.

But let’s hope this is just embellishment around the edges of a reformative administration.

[9YearLurker]

I was never a Never Trumper.

Bannon has repeatedly said we should watch and speak up if/when they go off track on their promises. That is more useful than mindless bootlicking.

You’re the unhinged one.

And it was a great speech.

I don’t read President Trump’s endorsing (signing) two STEM House Resolutions and a Concurrent Resolution (House and Senate) as being “special orders” by the President. It is my understanding these types of instruments are non-binding.

I’m looking at what the overall impact and process changes come out. If they are less authoritarian in terms of ordering agencies to consider this or that than they were before I chalk that up as good. YMMV.

Trump hasn’t rebooted anything. Trump is doing Trump.Different situations and different stages require different actions and different manners. He knows exactly what he is doing and it is the same as he has been doing from the beginning. Trump made his fortune in real estate and development. That is how he did that. That is how he is doing this.

[arthurus]

Unfortunately, no.
