He added: “The thing was, it didn’t cost the president anything to have that entertainment.” this is not only about incompetence or stupidity IMO, it's about decency and vulgarity that fuel resentment against Americans in such occasions.

Andaman Al Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Caesar Trump should do it as a new name. They tended to be the type of rulers that were fond of a few deaths or executions as entertainment over Dinner. There must be something in the rule book about bringing the office of President into disrepute. I remember how all the Trump supporters were saying how disgraceful it was that Hillary laughed when she stated that Gadaffi had been killed. Well how about a President that uses the launch of 59 tomahawks as an excuse for after dinner entertainment. It cost almost 100 million dollars and people were killed. How funny...........not! It is the type of thing you would expect from Kim Jong. Will he encourage some head of state to have sundowners when he launches a pre-emptive nuclear strike on North Korea. Maybe it would get his ratings up which is all he seems concerned about. This is NOT reality TV Mr President. Something under the "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" act must be enough to take this scum bag down. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_crimes_and_misdemeanors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to reside in Wash. D.C. Look at the photo with the Washington monument. At 2 o'clock from the monument is a strip of whitish-blue. That's by the Sylvan Theater. Many cool things happen there. I was at the first-ever Earth Day there, which was also my 18th b'day (and my hero's John Muir's b'day). Chambers Brothers played at the end of a great day of speeches by Coretta King, Dick Gregory, Rennie Davis (of the Chicago 8) and several senators. I fondly recall dancing with dozens of press corps people, in front of the stage, everyone having a great time. The speaker cabinets were aimed toward the monument, and the loud sounds went up and over a knoll to the rear of the WH, where Tricky Dick Nixon was holed up in a dark soundproof room watching NFL re-runs on TV. That's what Trump will further devolve toward: hiding away from everyone except his inner circle, who shower him with faux praise, and speak to him like he's a naughty little boy spoiled prince.

The US reduced ties with Thailand after the coup. It's the law. And many in the US are not doing fine. Just heard from a friend who's having problems with his insurance due to this BS from Trump.

Jingthing Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) Scenarios for dumping the orange turkey, or maybe not. Good read. Quote HOW TRUMP COULD GET FIRED The Constitution offers two main paths for removing a President from office. How feasible are they? ...Law and history make clear that Trump’s most urgent risk is not getting ousted; it is getting hobbled by unpopularity and distrust. He is only the fifth U.S. President who failed to win the popular vote. Except George W. Bush, none of the others managed to win a second term. Less dramatic than the possibility of impeachment or removal via the Twenty-fifth Amendment is the distinct possibility that Trump will simply limp through a single term, incapacitated by opposition. http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/05/08/how-trump-could-get-fired Edited May 3, 2017 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, as u know, Trump is a giant divider. He's divided Americans a bunch more than HRC every would have. Among those who are doing fine in the US are the 1% who are very rich. Like Trump, they're jazzed about lessening their taxes - which is actually a joke, because when a person is that rich, he/she probably doesn't pay taxes - again like Trump. Those who are sorely annoyed by Trump being the prez, are people who are in a gray area re; immigration (example; teenage kids of immigrants, who have been going to school in the US for several years). Some more of the types who are not content with the Dufus in Chief: environmentalists, people who want to switch to solar and other alternative energy, LGBT, and those who don't particularly like the idea of an election heavily swayed by an adversarial country's secret service. That's just a partial list. Oh, many of the same folks who don't like Trump for the reasons listed above, are folks who would like to see the # nukes lessened ww to zero. Trump thinks nukes are cool, and that the US should have the biggest arsenal and dictate to every other country how many they each should have. What's wrong with that picture?

boomerangutang Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 There are likely several other issues which could be added to the video about Trump's inevitable impeachment proceedings. When Trump took the oath of office, he swore to uphold the laws of the land. One of those laws was the ACA. Trump has said, repeatedly, that he hopes ACA will fail. One can assume he's doing all he can to see that law fail. Also, the video, though good, doesn't mention Trump's blatant nepotism. Trump has repeatedly and brazenly lied to Congress and the American people. Is that not impeachable? Probably not. In other words, the Constitution infers it's ok for presidents to lie to citizens.
