Trump running in to help.

So I think it would be only the most self-deluded of Trumptards that would believe his claim that he would run in unarmed to confront a shooter.

But, since he brought it up, it's worth seeing just how Corporal Bone-spurs has reacted in the face of danger previously:

But the notion that Trump won’t make it to 2020—whether because he’s impeached, he resigns, or worse—looks increasingly misguided. So does Democrats’ confidence in taking back the White House. “When you think you’re destined to win,” said Larry Sabato, the director of the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics, “you’re halfway to losing.”

But recent data should trouble them. Internal polling by the Democratic group Priorities USA showed the president’s approval rating had climbed to 44 percent in early February, which “mirrors Trump’s improving position in public polls.” Gallup finds a narrow majority of Americans support his handling of the economy, and the new Republican tax law is getting more popular.

“I think people just kind of assume he’s a goner,” FiveThirtyEight statistician Nate Silver told me recently, “but look, he’s now more in a range where presidents have recovered to win reelection. His approval rating is up to 41 or 42 percent in our tracking. That verges on being a normal number that resembles what happened to Reagan or Clinton or Obama in their second years.”

As Jim Messina, who managed President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign in 2012, warned earlier this month, “Donald Trump can absolutely be reelected.”

Former George W. Bush speechwriter Matt Latimer is even more confident of the president’s chances. “Donald Trump is on track to win reelection,”

he argued in Politico Magazine over the weekend. “He’s cut taxes. He’s rolled back regulations. He’s put ISIS on its heels. The economy and the stock market are humming along again, despite recent turmoil.”

Do you really think there's any difference between Trump Theatre and the Bush II Neocon show? Keeping in mind that neocons(and neolibs) love war...any war.

`We will continue to prosecute the campaign against terrorists, but great-power competition – not terrorism – is now the primary focus of US national security.’ Henceforth Russia and China will be America’s main enemies, with Iran and North Korea thrown in for good measure.

So declared US Secretary of Defense, James Mattis, last week in a statement of profound importance for the world.

For the past seventeen years, the US military has been laying waste to the Muslim world in the faux `war on terrorism.’ Afghanistan, Iraq, much of Syria, Somalia, Pakistan – all have been heavily bombed. US B-52’s and B-1 heavy bombers have tried to pound those resisting American ‘guidance’ into submission.

In Afghanistan, America’s longest war, President Donald Trump ordered a doubling of bombing against Taliban forces battling US occupation. Now, the US is running very low on bombs, guided munitions and even air-to-air missiles for some reason. Stores of munitions are being rushed from the US Pacific command to the Mideast.

At the same time, the US is fast running out of Muslim targets to bomb, now that the bogeyman ISIS has vanished into thin air and US air attacks in Syria are being minimized for fear of clashing with Russia. Iran still remains on the US potential hit list.

Which brings us back to General ‘Mad Dog’ Mattis. He is quite right that so-called terrorists (that’s anyone who actively opposes the Lex Americana) pose no real life or death threat to the US mainland.

But if so, how then to maintain the $1 trillion US military budget? Well, of course, trot out those good old ‘Reds Under Our Beds.’ Actually, the Pentagon has been planning a new war with China for the past three years, a mainly air and naval conflict to dominate China’s coasts and seas. The Pentagon is loading up on new aircraft, missiles, satellites and naval craft for the next Pacific War, and trying to enlist India as an ally against China.

Why is A.G. Jeff Sessions asking the Inspector General to investigate potentially massive FISA abuse. Will take forever, has no prosecutorial power and already late with reports on Comey etc. Isn’t the I.G. an Obama guy? Why not use Justice Department lawyers? DISGRACEFUL!

Remind me again where the Inspector General works?

Hope Hicks, White House communications director and close Donald Trump adviser, to resign

Hope Hicks, one of US President Donald Trump's longest-serving aides, is resigning from her job
as White House communications director.

Key points:

Hope Hicks was referred to as the 'Trump Whisperer'
This week she admitted she occasionally told 'white lies' for Donald Trump
"She is as smart and thoughtful as they come, a truly great person," Mr Trump said

White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the timeline for Ms Hicks' departure was unclear
and that it was not related to her testimony to a congressional committee on Tuesday (local time) about
a probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.

During the nine-hour interview, Ms Hicks acknowledged that she had occasionally told "white lies" for
Mr Trump, but she said she had not lied about anything relevant to the Russia investigation

^ She needs to be compelled to admit which specific "white lies".
And journalism needs to look back at all she's said and validly ask, "is this one of your lies?".

I can only assume you are joking.

Baldy orange cunto has been a self-confessed sexual parasite since he was quite young.

Kushner gets 500M dollars in business loans after meetings in the White House .....

Kushner middle-east peace broker...

But the deal last spring illustrates how the Kushner Companies’ extensive financial ties to Israel continue to deepen, even with his prominent diplomatic role in the Middle East. The arrangement could undermine the ability of the United States to be seen as an independent broker in the region. The Trump administration already inflamed tensions there when it said last month that it recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and would move the United States Embassy there from Tel Aviv.

Apparently starting trade wars is "smart trade".

The Dow Jones industrial average plunged to session lows Thursday afternoon following an announcement by President Donald Trump that he would place new taxes on imported steel and aluminum. The Dow Jones industrial average is now down 385 points, or 1.54%.
US Steel rose more than 9% on the news that foreign steel would be subject to a 25% import tax. Aluminum will be taxed at a 10% rate.
"Our Steel and Aluminum industries (and many others) have been decimated by decades of unfair trade and bad policy with countries from around the world,” Trump tweeted Thursday morning . “We must not let our country, companies and workers be taken advantage of any longer. We want free, fair and SMART TRADE!"

What is there...maybe only 4 of the 30 DJIA components left, that might have anything to do with steel and aluminum? What a joke...industrial.

I don't really get your point.

Any industry is fair game in a trade war.
