    You forgot to mention repeal n replace Obama Care failed, noose tightening on Russia gate , no real progress on da wall, NAFTA renegotiation not going well, and tax reform going nowhere.

    The above and to keep his new travel restriction order out of the news he needed a diversion. He figured why not go after the NFL and at the same time throw some red meat to his adoring supporters.

    Hasn't worked out well has it 45?

    It's ridiculous that he did it, even more ridiculous that they willingly gobble that shit up.

    I protest your inability to read:

    'By now it should be clear to everyone who Donald Trump is and what he represents.

    When black athletes peacefully protest racism and police brutality Trump has no trouble summoning his outrage.

    But when white supremacists march with Nazi flags and Confederate flags in the streets of American cities he equivocates and then defends them'.

    LULZ!

    Zero real world scope, eh. Nice wordz.

    This from a white dude who defends neo-Nazis and who is legitimately baffled as to what people protesting about racial injustice in his own country are protesting about.

    Good thing you won't ever be going to the US, nor be a part of it, so you don't have to experience all the racism & police brutality.

    You know, because you're not white or anything.

    "Two days ago, Trump reported to the American people (those on Twitter anyway) that Iran had fired a ballistic missile, threatening Israel.

    Except ... there was no missile.

    Iranian state TV claimed Iran had launched a missile, but the footage they aired was from a launch that took place last January. That missile exploded shortly after liftoff. The launch was a failure.

    Somehow, the President of the United States of America believed Iranian TV without question.

    There was no missile. No launch.

    Iran essentially trolled the President of the United States with a fake launch.

    If only America had some other source of information. If only America spent a massive fraction of its budget on some kind of intelligence community comprised of dozens of agencies spread across the globe with assets on land and in the air and below the sea and all the way out into space utilizing hundreds of different kinds of sensors and employing tens of thousands of highly trained agents and analysts both civilian and military. If only we had something like THAT to advise the president.

    The thing is, it's just about impossible to hide a launch. Especially in that region which is under a blanket of continuous overlapping surveillance by at least a dozen nations and international agencies.

    So, you are forced to ask yourself, how was this possible?

    How could the president of the United States of America become so utterly disconnected from his own intelligence service?

    And where the hell IS he getting his information?

    Trump tweeted this in the middle of UN discussions about North Korea and pulling out of the Iran deal. And if he and the administration he supposedly manages can get something like this wrong, what ELSE is he confused about?

    He needs to be removed from office. Soon. Before he kills us all".



    Essentially what Trump is saying is Iranian news is more reliable than MSM American (fake) news.

    Thanks for the post SK, I'm surprised this hasn't got more traction.... kneeling athletes are more important, I suppose.

    Trump declares Puerto Rico is in ‘deep trouble’ as questions mount about his commitme

    President Trump, facing mounting questions about his commitment to Puerto Rico’s recovery, took to Twitter Monday night, saying the U.S. territory is “in deep trouble,” in part because of problems that predated Hurricane Maria.

    Trump said Puerto Rico was already suffering from “broken infrastructure,” including an old electrical grid, which he said was “devastated” by Hurricane Maria, as well as “massive debt.”

    “Food, water and medical are top priorities — and doing well,” Trump said in his series of tweets, which credited the Federal Emergency Management Agency. He noted that, by contrast, Texas and Florida, hit by earlier hurricanes, “are doing great.”

    Texas & Florida are doing great but Puerto Rico, which was already suffering from broken infrastructure & massive debt, is in deep trouble..
    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 26, 2017

    ...It's old electrical grid, which was in terrible shape, was devastated. Much of the Island was destroyed, with billions of dollars....
    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 26, 2017

    ...owed to Wall Street and the banks which, sadly, must be dealt with. Food, water and medical are top priorities - and doing well. #FEMA
    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 26, 2017

    Monday night’s tweets were the first from Trump about Puerto Rico since Wednesday, when the hurricane made landfall and Trump declared “we are with you.”

    Power remains out on much of the island, and officials say they are facing numerous logistical challenges, including damage to airports and ports. But FEMA says its response has been robust, including the deployment of 10,000 federal workers.

    Criticism of Trump has come from Democratic politicians, celebrities and others, focusing in part on the heavy attention he has put in recent days on his opposition to football players who kneel during the national anthem.

    “At the same time that he was doing all of that, we had American citizens in Puerto Rico who are in a desperate condition,” Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee Trump defeated last year, said in a radio interview on Monday. “He has not said one word about them, about other American citizens in the U.S. Virgin Islands. I’m not sure he knows that Puerto Ricans are American citizens.”

    Marc Anthony, the Latin pop singer, was more blunt, urging Trump on Twitter to “shut the [expletive] up about NFL.”

    “Do something about our people in need in #PuertoRico,” Anthony wrote. “We are American citizens too.”

    Actor Kal Penn, who worked in the White House during President Barack Obama’s tenure, said on Twitter that was “outrageous & unsurprising that our President won’t race to help fellow Americans.”
