He can be crude, unpolished, and tactless, but damn if he isn't the right man for the job in such a time as this.

You got that right!

I liken President Trump to a NY Longshoreman union member dressed in a tuxedo.

Don't let the tuxedo fool you.. he's an ass kicker.

Wouldn’t it be nice if Civil Asset Forfeiture laws were instead (instead, not also) applied to corrupt politicians? Just think how much money could be seized from the Clinton Foundation to recover what they received as bribes, what they misappropriated from Haiti and other so-called charitable and aid programs, what they were paid for selling our uranium to Russia, the list goes on nearly ad infinitum — billions of dollars that could be used for the benefit of taxpayers (e.g., to reduce the deficit or to rebuild infrastructure). Equally enormous sums could be recovered from Obama’s unaccountably huge assets — just think what we could do with the money he sneaked into Iran’s hands, if only we could seize up to an equal sum from his and his family’s personal assets as well as from his co-conspirators. Thousands of politicians and high-ranking bureaucrats at all levels of government deserve to lose their ill-gotten gains, and CAF is a quick and easy weapon.

He was NOT right for the job..he’s a good guy but whenever he showed up to speak in front of the Commie media he always had that “Oh sh*t” look on his face. Im happy with Sarah Huckabee Sanders I think she will do a GREAT job and she knows how to handle the media..Spicer didnt. He always looked like he couldn’t wait to get out of there

You haven’t watched Spicer have you?
He was a bit out of his league dealing with that pit vipers.

Watching him, I often felt sorry and embarrassed for him. He’s too nice and really didn’t overcome his fears of dealing with over-privileged, self-indulgent ass-clowns in the MSM. He was often hesitant and stuttering in reply to those jerks.

Think the new guy is brighter, quicker on his feet and sharper with his tongue—East Coast style!

With Zero/Holder practically de-criminalizing everything but being a conservative for nearly a decade, his and HRC’s minions are diversified in their criminal investments: drugs, sex trafficking, weapons-running, illegal minerals mining.... all kinds of ways to skin those cats now.

Great analogy. Being an old school New Yorker, Trump comes by some of that naturally. 'Bout time we had a president with that kind of grit and backbone.

“We (the USA) has 5% of the world’s population but 50% of the world’s guns. Enough is enough. It is just common sense it apply more controls”

Yep, another NE liberal, but I’ll take him over the covert operations crowd headed by Priebus (including Spicer).

He also praised the Acting US Attorney in Las Vegas, Steven Myrhe, last week.

Myhre is prosecuting the people involved in the standoff near Bundy Ranch in April 2014.

Myrhe has gotten the judge in the case to ban the use of the Constitution (First and Second Amendments) as a legal defense in the second trial of four guys they couldn’t convict in the first trial now underway.

FIRE MYHRE.......

He quoted from it a few years ago, I read. He studied military history when he went to military academy.

I gotta stop reading idiot comments.

When was Scaramucci a Never Trumper? I read he was supportive of Trump way back.

I think a lot of people (besides outright trolls) aren’t using rational thinking at all, they want everything wrapped up in 90 minutes like a movie.

Sessions supports enemies of the Constitution, like the Acting US Attorney in Las Vegas, Steven Myhre.

“I have no problem going after options and pharma...after all, they heavily funded the Pubbies who are stopping trump on obamacare...I’d also like to see CARA Therapeutics get their pot based pain killers fda approved...”
What does that last sentence have to do with anything? It seems a non-sequitur.
...sorry...their painkillers are non-addictive...it would turn the industry upside down.

In other news, the latest polls show Trump has dropped to 36% approval, his lowest, according to current polls just released. With all the negative crap going on around Trump and the crap around his administration, I am beginning to wonder if he can pull off a second term. Sadly, people start listening to the crap and next election, don’t show up. That will give us Hillary 2.0 in the next election.
