I actually am sad to see him go.
It's the whole "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't" thing.

They could bring someone else in that will only fly on planes with two right wings.

Looks like Tucker Carlson is taking his place.

"Donald J. Trump‏Verified account @realDonaldTrump 6h6 hours ago


No matter how much I accomplish during the ridiculous standard of the first 100 days, & it has been a lot (including S.C.), media will kill!"

He already knows he's failed or flip flopped on most of what he campaigned on.

Agree, odds are good that it will be Tucker (replace the T with an F) Carlson, but who really cares, they just want ratings/money and do not actually care about facts, same with CNN, MSNBC etc...all of them are corp run and corp controlled, they only show you what they want you to know or frame any news that they do show you in the way that they want you too interpret it.

Seek out independent news online, there is good and bad, but hopefully your instincts will steer you to the good. If you end up watching BS like Infowars etc, sorry can't help you, your just too far gone.

Strange that Trump would call his 100th day in office mark a “ridiculous standard” when it was he himself that set that standard in 2016 by laying out plans for his first 100 days in the White House.

 

[E-Promote]

The trump administration announced on friday that it would end the last administration’s practice of making White House visitor logs public...hiding something?

 

[E-Promote]

Welcome to a closer look at the clown show taking place in the White House. At the 100 day mark
a mark that he himself set up then called “ridiculous" out of fear of his own terrible report card we get an accelerated pace of more crazy tweets and nonsense policies going nowhere.

"I loved my previous life. I had so many things going," Trump told Reuters in an interview. "This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier."

"I like to drive," he said. "I can't drive any more."

"Trump, who said he was accustomed to not having privacy in his "old life," expressed surprise at how little he had now. And he made clear he was still getting used to having 24-hour Secret Service protection and its accompanying constraints."

"Midway through a discussion about Chinese President Xi Jinping, the president paused to hand out copies of what he said were the latest figures from the 2016 electoral map.

"Here, you can take that, that's the final map of the numbers," the Republican president said from his desk in the Oval Office, handing out maps of the United States with areas he won marked in red. "It’s pretty good, right? The red is obviously us."

Still talking about Electoral numbers. He's only 100 days in. He's going to break vacation and golf records. He can't stand being in DC.

If he misses his old life so much, he can always resign...

Undercooled meat. Dangerous fish. Health inspectors ding Trump’s Mar-a-Lago kitchen
Inspectors found 13 violations at the fancy club’s kitchen, according to recently published reports — a record for an institution that charges $200,000 in initiation fees.

That's been his business plan and history for a long time. He does not care what you get for your money, he only cares that he gets your money.

This guy is such an idiot, not a day goes by.

Note to President Trump: Andrew Jackson wasn't alive for the Civil War

He also ran a plantation that operated on slave labor. Over 100 of them.

haha, Trump

‘You have better health care than we do.’ President Donald Trump, to Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull

They have Universal Health Care

Say what? Trump praises Australia’s universal health care

http://www.marketwatch.com/story/say-what-trump-praises-australias-universal-health-care-2017-05-04

Bernie Sanders responded

"Thank you Mr. Trump for admitting that universal health care is the better way to go. I'll be sure to quote you on the floor of the Senate."

[jberryhill]

He made similar remarks during the campaign. There were people who voted for him who thought when he was doing his usual "we'll have something so much better, you'll love it" that he was going to work toward a sane approach to health care in the US.

In general, this idiot has no idea what he's talking about on just about any subject.

It turns out the states with the highest proportion of people under 65 with pre-existing conditions all went for Trump. So, fuck 'em. The joke's on them.

'We're going to win so much, you're going to be so sick and tired of winning'

Because he considers Chump Care "winning" and Chump Care will be leaving you sick and tired.

I'm happy to say that 3 republican reps from my state were among the "no" votes. Although another of them was the co-author of the amendment... which he wrote while at his beach house

Hopefully the senate will push back hard on this and at least come up with a workable revision. It doesn't sound like they're going to put it through go as is.

"It is the ultimate test of the character of this country...not the power we give the strong but the strength with which we embrace the weak."
