    That hasn't been an issue; there have been many bipartisan bills over the years.

    What you have now is that even a bipartisan bill like the last border bill has been blocked by ONE person, the speaker, whose current nose is up trump's arse.

    It's not entirely new, Boehner used to do it when he was terrified of the Tea Party.

    If you cannot come up with anything then I think, if you are being honest, that you would have to admit that it is in fact you who are the partisans.

    It is OK to be a partisan. Lots of people are partisans and wear their badge with pride. However, if you cannot agree with these 2 statements, and still claim that you are not a partisan, and still accuse someone who does agree with these 2 statements of being a partisan, I think you are being intellectually dishonest.
    1. Massive understatement. He is an habitual liar.

    2. Massive overstatement. The vast majority of his actions are simply to dog whistle to his base or line the pockets of the junta.

    About three posters dismantled your 6 great things Trump did, to which you ignored and now you have created a simplistic two statement set to get people to
    reply to.

    this is a classic case of JAQing and you’re being disingenuous yet againz

    There were dozens of partisan daily newspapers, town criers, not millions of uneducated fucktards but the majority were by far much more uneducated than they are now. Then you had folks posting graffiti on buildings, twitter and teakdoor like.

    Indeed, Norts.
    There still are considerable [and less than thoughtful] circles that consider the great internet/information age to be devastating to the ever so traditional and trusted sources of the ruling establishment classes.

    Yes, and his handling of many issues is not only worrying, it is devastating, it is catastrophic how he overturns the current world order.
    Looper seeing it as only worrying, toning down the effects just makes him an appeaser, a full blown trumpanze.

    I can't find anything good in his policies and the order he has signed but I might be wrong here, he has after all signed a couple of hundreds of orders so there may be some I would agree with. I doubt it though so Looper please specify which good policies he have implemented and I'll get back to you after that.

    Trump's pants permanently on fire hence teh odd expression.

    On the record: The U.S. administration’s actions on Russia e.g.

    Mar 15 2019 Sanctions – In response to Russia’s continued aggression in Ukraine6 Russian individuals and 8 entities were sanctioned for their involvement in attacks on Ukrainian naval vessels in the Kerch Strait, the annexation of Crimea, and backing of separatist government elections in eastern Ukraine. These actions complement sanctions also taken by the European Union and Canada on the same day.
    lest we forget "Trump said Ukraine started the war"

    What do you think about Trump's executive order stating that women are adult biological female humans

    Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism And Restoring Biological Truth To The Federal Government – The White House

    This issue has vexed much of Western society for many years now. It seems like common sense but political and business leaders have been terrified of incurring the wrath of the extreme left.

    Trump was pretty much first off the blocks in turning this around. The UK supreme court has since followed suit.

    This means that biological males should no longer be able to take part in female sport.

    Do you think that is a good policy?

    Who gives a fuck you stupid fucking fuck.

    This is meant to be a fucking distraction for knobheads like yourself, while the orange moron disrupts the entire global economy, kisses the asses of pootin and winnie the pooh (Xi). I could go on and on but I am in the cups and tired of your driveling idiocy.

    Fuck that fat orange turd and fuck you.

    I imagine that the biological female athletes who have been severely physically injured and who have had been denied medals and trophies in favour of trans athletes give a fuck.

    On this point, it is not only female athletes, it is the entire female population who might feel displaced by this small number of transgender cheats. It has been a useful populist distraction for Trump. Not really deserving of direct presidential intervention. Which doesn't make it a non-issue.

    I really like how Trump is fighting back against totalitarianism on American university campuses. I think he needs to dial up his efforts even more. People who want to speak up against feminist, Hamas loving lefties should be free to speak without fear of being bashed, murdered or canceled. It's repulsive how restricted speech has become on too many college campuses.

    With Rubio backing out of peace talks, Teflon Don has now succeeded in changing the world order and hurting NATO. The USA totally caving into to Russia is a huge item, but hidden behind all the other damage being inflicted by the current administration. The whole GOP is complicit in this change in American doctrine and the consequences remain to be seen. American presidents need to hold the value of doing what is right for Americans and for democracy, but currently we will have none of that.

    This is why it’s nearly impossible to take your imbecilic comments seriously. With all the controversy surrounding Trump 2.0, your focus is on clickbait topics like transgender athletes. Trans people make up roughly 1-2% of the population of the United States, but less than less than 0.002% of US college athletes, identify as trans, and even fewer of recent Olympians (0.001%) identify as trans. This is exactly what Trump wants people talking about. Focus on shit that doesn’t really matter, while he burns it to the ground, and lines his pockets.

    I may be wrong, usually am, but I get the feeling the Trumpanzees are using the ole

    "There;s a squirrel Whoosh,or dead cat thrown on the desk distraction routine technique'

    They want us to focus on a few dicks over there rather than those in the White House?

    Our opinions may differ on how important this matter is but the question remains, do you support this policy change?

    To make it simple I have created a poll thread.

    Executive Order: Women are Adult Biologically Female Humans

    Anyone who has stated that there is no merit to any of Trump's policies in his second term (Snubs, Harry, Beachbound, Molle) should vote 'No' to clarify that you indeed do not support any of his policies.

    If you decline to vote I think we can fairly conclude that you do in fact support this policy.

    Above are two classic examples of dog whistle topics meant to deceive the dimwits of the litter from what is really important so that the orange moron can continue his dismantling of core institutions of the United States and everything it stands for.

    I like how Trump is kind of a part time president. He organizes his schedule so well that he can hold one of the most demanding jobs in the world but still find a lot of time for his great love, golf. He's an inspiration for lazy folks. They can still hit home runs.
