Trump is a disrupter, and that's good for some who see the system as already being fucked, needing major rebirthing, and some new facts!
To those stuck on the status quo , Trump is the Devil/Hilter incarnated.

IMO, it's funny that people can't get over the fact that trump's a 70-year-old from jamaica queens who moved into real estate in manhattan and still has a chip on his shoulder that he has to prove something (my hotels are better, my golf courses are better, my ratings are better).
anyways, all the predictions for doom and gloom during a trump admin from the mainstream media are going to be proven wrong, IMO, when the economy picks up, millions who've been out of work so long they're no longer even considered unemployed are put back to work and trump wins a second term.
to do that, he'll have to follow kudlow's advice:
'We Must Think Big and Dream Even Bigger'
By Lawrence Kudlow
January 25, 2017
Toward the end of his speech, Trump said, "We must think big and dream even bigger." To understand Trump and his message on Inauguration Day is to appreciate the importance of that sentence.
He then added: "The time for empty talk is over. Now arrives the hour of action. Do not let anyone tell you it cannot be done. No challenge can match the heart and fight and spirit of America. We will not fail. Our country will thrive and prosper again."
Trump was a change candidate who blasted away at the establishment's failures at the expense of ordinary Main Street folk. And he successfully ran with the simple idea that things can be fixed. And he brought that optimism to his inaugural address.
As he said: "Now arrives the hour of action. Do not let anyone tell you it cannot be done."
Decades ago, when Reagan was elected president, the intellectual consensus was that high inflation, high unemployment and American decline could not be changed. The idea was that the country was ungovernable.
But Reagan put an end to that. He did it with a clear set of easy-to-understand policies to fix the economy and restore American leadership abroad. And he guided that plan into place with his quintessential optimism.
Trump and Reagan are very different people. And Trump's governing style will be nothing like Reagan's. But the underlying principle of optimism is the same.
For these reasons I believe President Trump has the potential to be a transformational figure. And he is moving fast. His actions and energy in just the first couple of days have been remarkable.
Everywhere he repeats the theme of economic growth with lower taxes and fewer burdensome regulations. The war on business is over. We will reward success, not punish it.
He talks bilateral trade deals that can be enforced. He is freezing federal hiring, proposing to cut government spending $10.5 trillion over 10 years, doing away with Obamacare mandates, getting the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines in place, welcoming a constant flow of visitors from businesses and unions and taking calls from foreign heads of state.
He has set up a meeting with British Prime Minister Theresa May, moving a U.S.-Britain free-trade agreement from the back of the queue to the front.
He is making it clear that he will seek border security, replace catch-and-release with catch-and-deport, institute skills-based legal immigration (rather than family-based), deport criminal illegals and end sanctuary cities.

Oddly enough, I thought the economy was in the best state that it's been in years....Originally Posted by Farangrakthai
yes, obama did a good job of getting the country out of the mess dubya left (banking crisis and economy crash).Originally Posted by CSFFan
but the labor participation rate is still very low and the economy's been running on free money (0 interest rates) just to keep it going (not a sign of a strong economy) like it's running at 60 miles an hour in second gear, as it were.
Day 5 or 6 of the Trump presidency I've lost count already and he still hasn't launched any nukes, this wasn't in the script.
Facts have been distorted for years, it's only now the lsm is alarmed, as their time controlling the doublethink is over.
It's their second shot, first was the 'fake news' meme that backfired spectacularly back on to them, alternative facts will likely not work either.
Their basic gripe is trump is better at communicating and leading the narrative than they are, I don't think they will win this war.
If CNN wasn't headquartered in his hometown, I'm guessing it would have been in his script...Originally Posted by buriramboy
The vets who voted for him didn't anticipate hiring freezes that will affect care at VA facilities either. Or making it more difficult for them to get jobs with the gubment. And those low income vets who don't live close to VA centers? Yep, there goes their ObamaCare. Of course it's probably their own damn fault since they probably didn't have the proper ID to vote.
Oh! What a thoughtful insight into my last post. I'm very hurt that you've chosen to abuse me again. It hurts...it truly hurts..Originally Posted by longway

Thanks for helping to define retarded here. Without your help with your posts, we'd never have known!

The wall is going up and Mexico is paying.
[QUOTE=harrybarracuda;3449157]That would be the Auto industry that Obama saved when the Republicans wanted to throw it to the wolves.
yeah, keep trying.[/QUO
No need to keep trying all of what I have posted lead to keeping or creating American jobs, which is the point of my original post.
Trump orders wall to be built on Mexico border
President Donald Trump has issued an executive order for an "impassable physical barrier" to be built along the US border with Mexico.
He also signed an action to strip funds from US cities that are sanctuaries for undocumented immigrants.
Mr Trump said in a TV interview with ABC News that Mexico would "absolutely, 100%" reimburse the US for his wall.
But Congress would have to approve funding for the structure, which is estimated to cost billions of dollars.

^You're paying for it sucker.
^ No problem, buster. Take it from planned parenthood.
With every passing day we see reports of things being done that we were assured would not; could not, possibly be done by the Donald. Just empty promises you see.
Cabinet posts are confirmed as the 'totally unsuitable" candidates pass the vetting process without drama. There are not many bleeding hearts in the new administration.
The so called liberal left continues to froth. They just can't understand how anybody that does not think and act exactly like them could possibly achieve anything. Some have nightly visions of Obama descending in a blaze of fire and light to save them from the Demon Trump....but then they wake up and turn on their TV....and the fucking wall is being built.....OMG. Hope fades even more when Ralph Lauren announces that they are in the business of making dresses; not politics, and in a subtle way tell them to STFU.
The game continues in the first period....Team Trump up by 25 goals now while the opponents are still adjusting their equipment, and the crown continues to shout and stamp their feet.....this can't be happening.......
The rest of the world watches and wonders.....the rules of the game have changed and now so many goals are being scored...surely this can't be happening.
