    "Why Trump is more popular than ever"

    "There is, however, a faint glimmer of hope for Trump's enemies in the media. Making it work would require the coordinated efforts of a vast number of persons — conspiracy is the word for it, or maybe even "collusion" — but that shouldn't be difficult in the era of modern internet-based communication. If we want to convince people who voted for him that the president no longer deserves their support, we need to stop talking about him".

    This article shows exactly why people who support change,will vote to continue it in 2020.The continued deranged hysterical  hatred that  reeks from the mouths of liberals, actually works to PT benefit for re election .The only answer the left has for American's for the 2020 race is, delitgitimize ,obstruct and resist PT.   

     

    “He needs to ensure that his loyal base supporters are sufficiently energized to come out and vote GOP in the midterms. An easy way for him to do that is through Twitter rants. "

    "Given his political constraints, Trump will do what he did in the private sector when his real estate empire was floundering: switch to branding. When Trump tried to build things like hotels, his track record was mediocre. As a brand, however, Trump pocketed millions with far less skin in the game.

    More than 3 in 4 believe traditional media reports ‘fake news’: poll

    "A majority of Americans believe that mainstream news outlets report "fake news," according to a new Monmouth University poll".

    Trump may owe his 2016 victory to ‘fake news’ — according to new study .  One recent study of nearly 25,000 election social media messages shared by Michigan voters identified nearly half as “unverified WikiLeaks content and Russian-origin news stories” that fall “under the definition of propaganda based on its use of language and emotional appeals.”

  3. "There is a great deal of denial about Trump and what he reflects about American society. He has given people permission to act on the worst aspects of human nature : he is a greedy, craven, untruthful bigot and bully, the living product of a celebrity-driven popular culture prefaced on distraction and crudeness. So essentially Trump normalizes pathological behavior."

  4. "Her experience is not so far from that of, say, Melania Trump, or any other gorgeous women who explicitly or implicitly trade their desirability for wealth by giving older, decrepit men marriage, sex, or companionship. Trump himself might admire her business chops—“She likes to maximize her profits,” if he wasn’t so busy trying to shut her up. "

    As I said already weeks ago. It's a nothingburger. The credibility of Stormy is zero. Last but not least, they decided to get Cooper as the interviewer. With that, it's only poor entertainment.  One of the last desperate attempts to cause harm to the POTUS and his family.

     

    "Let's just say that Trump cannot claim that people around him would never stoop to thuggish behavior.All of this can only lend more credibility to the suspicion that he might be subject to blackmail by other people, beyond the women with whom he's had sex. Who knows? It might even be a foreign government or two."

    (Reuters) - Remington Outdoor Co Inc [FREDM.UL], one of the largest U.S. makers of firearms, filed for bankruptcy protection on Sunday to carry out a debt-cutting deal with creditors amid mounting public pressure for greater gun control.

    The company's chief financial officer, Stephen Jackson, said in court papers that Remington's sales fell significantly in the year before its bankruptcy, and that the company was having difficulty meeting requirements from its lenders.

    Remington, America's oldest gunmaker, announced in February it would reduce its $950 million debtload in a deal that will transfer control of the company to creditors.

  8. It"s ashock and it"s a pain to realise how easily lives can be taken and destroyed by someone you have nothing to share with.

    How long did it take to make of Arnaud Beltrame the kind of person her was? All our thoughts to his family and beloved ones.

    The killet's family members should leave France - if they have some sense of decency - take responsibility, share the shame, face the conséquences.

    I feel so angry.

    Sounds like a capital idea! 

    Too many leakers with their own personal agenda trying undermine the President. 

     

    White House lawyers who knowingly participated in a  scheme to illegally coerce  unrepresented non lawyer employees & deprive them of First Amendment and other rights could be subject to bar discipline for violating ethics rules —and maybe even lose their licenses https://twitter.com/billkristol/status/975520281799352321
