The Many Faces of US Politics...

[Eamonnca1]

I wouldn't vote conservative but I do respect the ideology. Conservative means keeping things steady and thinking about the future but maybe less about people.

Trump is no conservative. Neither is the GOP a conservative party.  Slashing taxes in the middle of a managed depression is economic vandalism.  Climate change denial is pure evil.

There is nobody for conservatives to vote for.

A typo? We're not in a depression. The criticism is that he's trying to stimulate the economy in a time of full employment, which leads to inflation, rising interest rates, and a recession not long after (probably when a Democrat has taken office and can get the blame for it). Certainly is economic vandalism.

It's not a typo. Interest rates are on the floor. Only that and central banks buying up bonds prevent a stock market crash. Wage growth is pathetic. Debt is out of control.
The next crash will kill the dollar , partly because of the tax cut. There won't be anyone to lend money to the US when its deficit is 10-15% of GDP.
Employment is not full either. Labor Participation is very, very poor.

Post-presser, let's just say it: Trump is a dove on North Korea. There is nothing 'strong' about the following: 1. Gave the summit for nothing. 2. Ducked human rights. 3. Gave up milex with S Korea for no concrete concession. 4. Declared desire to remove USFK, also for nothing /1

reciprocally defined. 5. Kicking around a peace treaty, also tied to no specific concession. 5. Criticized SK as cheap-skates, bc Guam-based bombers are costly. Apparently jet-fuel is so expensive, it's worth casting aside a 60-year ally and friend. (Try to imagine Fox's   /2


response if Obama had said something that petty.) Abe worried that Trump would throw Japan under the bus over short-range missiles. Actually he's doing that to South Korea. If we don't get something enormous for all this, this is very depressing.  END

Someone's going to have to explain to me why the Iran deal was a bad one and why this is a good one.

I stopped reading at "National Review." Give me a credible source.

Obama did the first one, Trump did the second one.

The US withdrawing from the UN Human Rights Council.

Brings a tear to your eye, the nobility of this administration and the right wing. Apparently a majority of Republicans support ripping toddlers away from their mothers at the border. Christianity... family values... pro-life... morals...

But then those poor people aren't really humans... just criminals and statistics.

I read or heard somewhere that Out of 12,000 minors currently in federal custody only 2000 crossed the border with a parent or legal guardian. The remainder crossed with someone else

There's a huge problem with human trafficking and bvllshit asylum claims on the Southern Border and something needs to be done about it

As unpalatable as the current situation is, maybe this will prompt congress to act
