He was forced to be on the defensive since day 1. The BS Russia story and attack on him and anybody associated with him is the route cause for most of the flippant remarks.

I do agree that having allies matters. I think we'll be fine there though.

The democrats are on a witch hunt for they have no real answers on how to deal with Trump.

They had their anti American race baiting hero for 8 years and are in severe withdrawal.

A Great President forever being attacked by a bunch of ignorant Democrats acting like children because America took their nasty woman dream away from them.

President Trump is still on track to be the most successful President in modern times.

 

The Democrats keep losing elections despite millions of dollars being shipped in from Hollywood. They can't buy a seat, literally! If they keep up with this Russia collusion narrative they are going to keep losing every seat to the Republicans and make sure Trump gets re-elected.

The funny thing is, he did the same thing he did for his own election to help Handel win. He sent tweets and robo-calls. Free / Cheap and effective. It's ironic too. The Democrats are always talking sh*t about rich people, while they tried to use the money from rich people to buy / win a seat and still lost.

 

Cal-ee-forn-yuns tried to invade Georgia with their pinky raisin money.

Noogies on all y'all

all i gotta say about trump is that hes a 71 year old man whose addicted to twitter. how lame is that?

 

LOL I see you posted this in the Patagonia tread as well. On paper it does sound lame. But, if you know a thing or two you'd realize that he's a business man. It's all about results and the bottom line. He can reach hundreds of millions of people with the push of a button and get his message out and it cost him nothing.

It's the times we live in dude. I personally don't have a Twatter account but soooo many people do, and that's why he uses it. Jared Kushner in all likeliness is behind his Twatter usage.

Kushner is great at analytics and knew this would be effective in not only winning the Presidency but to continue battling the MSM and getting his message out unfiltered.

For better or worse, it has worked thus far, and as a businessman you don't fix what isn't broken.

 

Yes, that is lame.
But then again, I am a 66 year old man addicted to SI........

 

No shame in o Barry's game!

 

Anatomy of a Witch Hunt
The Trump-Russia scare comes from the same playbook as fake cancer scares.

Americans won’t be really good citizens until they read Timur Kuran and Cass Sunstein’s 1999 law review article about “availability cascades.”

Their launching point is the process by which we (i.e., human beings) decide to believe what others believe, and judge the truth of a proposition by how familiar it is. Such “availability cascades” drive government policy in good ways and bad, but usually bad. An example the authors analyze in detail is 1989’s fake “Alar” cancer scare that devastated U.S. apple growers.

Which brings us to today’s question: How did it become widely believed in the first half of 2017 that a U.S. president committed treason with Russia?

Consider what has passed for proof in the media. Tens of thousands of Americans have done business with Russia since the collapse of the Soviet Union, not to mention before.

In 2009 President Obama made the first of his two trips to Russia with a gaggle of U.S. business leaders in tow.
Of these many thousands, four were associated with the Trump campaign, and now became evidence of Trump collusion with Russia.

Every president for 75 years has sought improved relations with Russia. That’s what those endless summits were about. Mr. Trump, in his typically bombastic way, also promoted improved relations with Russia. Now this was evidence of collusion.

Russian diplomats live in the U.S. and rub shoulders with countless Americans. Such shoulder-rubbing, if Trump associates were involved, now is proof of crime.

The Alar pesticide scare only took off when activists whom Messrs. Kuran and Sunstein label “availability entrepreneurs” peddled deceptive claims to a credulous “60 Minutes.” We would probably not be having this Russia discussion today if not for the so-called Trump dossier alleging improbable, lurid connections between Donald Trump and the Kremlin.

It had no provenance that anyone was bound to respect or rely upon. Its alleged author, a retired British agent named Christopher Steele, supposedly had Russian intelligence sources, but why would Russian intelligence blow the cover of their blackmail agent Mr. Trump whom they presumably so carefully and expensively cultivated? They wouldn’t.
