He is a president behaving like a candidateSomeone should let him know the Dems aren't in power...

It's not really unacceptable to everybody though is it, I mean, it's clearly not unacceptable to California. Come on, Donald.
Me too, I feel exactly the same but I am sure if the tape does exist he really couldn't talk his way out of it and it would be the straw that broke the Evangelical supports back.
Or they don't give any shits and view Mike Pence as being installed by God to direct the heathen to do His bidding. A la King Nebuchadnezzer (sp) and the prophet Daniel, or Cyrus the Great.A lot of these nutters truly believe he's become a born-again christian and all that stuff in the past is forgiven, and that he was chosen by god as their anointed one.
With Putin kgb background I'm not surprised he has a condemning evidence of trump partying with their "sparrows" on tape.
The real home run for Trump would be if there is no Pee Pee Tape and Putin has nothing on him, and the only reason Trump was not criticizing him was because he didn't want to lose Putin's support for future business opportunities once Trump is done with being President. That would allow Trump to go negative on Putin now and do other things Vlad doesn't like, (such as go after Assad).
Big win for Trump if true.
They should read these parts...Or they don't give any shits and view Mike Pence as being installed by God to direct the heathen to do His bidding. A la King Nebuchadnezzer (sp) and the prophet Daniel, or Cyrus the Great.
They should read these parts...
Isaiah 1:17: Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.
Proverbs 31:8-9: Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.
Jeremiah 22: 1: This is what the Lord says: “Go down to the palace of the king of Judah and proclaim this message there …. Do what is just and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor the one who has been robbed. Do no wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place. For if you are careful to carry out these commands, then kings who sit on David’s throne will come through the gates of this palace, riding in chariots and on horses, accompanied by their officials and their people. But if you do not obey these commands, declares the Lord, I swear by myself that this palace will become a ruin.’”
Then he should know this, and stop interfering in the salvation of them...Pence is. He is protecting the rights of the oppressed white men.
Then he should know this, and stop interfering in the salvation of them...
“Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."
The Bible is actually really useful to poke fun at Republicans, if you know where to look.
Gulp! The female Trump. Fml!
He is a president behaving like a candidate
He is the first who doesn't want a deal because he won on dividing the U.S.A.Its's basically the go-to for any failing/want to be autocratic politician ever. The special thing about Trump is that he has so many to blame: Hillary, Obama, MSM, Germany, NATO, Canada, Mexico, FBI, The Democrats, Trade deals, China, his dog, Comey, California, Rosie O'Donnel, NFL, Kim Jong-Un, Hollywood and poor people
No mention in here about the Trump getting China to back down on the tariffs?
You guys should really try to be more objective. Three times now in the last week I've mentioned stuff the baboon actually got right, and it isn't even discussed.
They lower tarrifs, just not for the US :P
Yes, but I agree with Trump that something had to be done when the tariff on a car from China to the US is 2,5%, while the other way it is 25%.
China has had unfair advantages by being classed as a developing country, with the tariffs that follows, for too long. About time that their free pass got revoked.
Trump is for once in the right here.
At what expense? He's probably helping the aluminium industry but at the same time hurting so many other industries from China retaliation alone. Talking about blowing off your legs to fix a rash
I just mentioned the car thing as an example because that is the most striking example, but tariffs will be adjusted across the board and intellectual property laws will be put in place, while opening the bank sector.
WTO has given China unfair advantages by classing them as a developing nation for too long now. Rural China might be on the level of a developing country, but their trade, technology and cities sure as shit isn't.
Trump is the only one who has called them out on it. The rest of the world has been happy to let the Chinese go on, as long as they produce cheap little plastic toys for us.
Go ahead then, slap a big tarrif on chinese imports, let's see who suffers more.
Wow BIG WIN for Trump.
Exactly how many cars does the USA import from that well known car manafacturing country that is China?
Yeah, thought so.
Carry on celebrating his empty victories, he's doing so much winning
Only ones with a big enough carrot and stick to do it is the US, and Trump is the first and only of them to do it.
Don't let your hatred for Trump cloud your judgement on how China has had advantages, and taken advantages, when it comes to global trade this last decade.
FWIW...
This bits inaccurate according to reports. The video is apparently in the Presidential suite where the Obama’s had recently stayed and Trump had the girls pissing on the bed saying disparaging things about the Obamas.
What advantages? Tarrifs are bilateral agreement. If the us dont like being bombarded with chinese goods they're free not to buy from them.
You want free trade and all that but cry foul when the chinese are more efficient in producing goods and produced things cheaper. The us imposed tarrifs whenever they see fit but complains when others imposed their own.
“China, which is a great economic power, is considered a developing nation within the World Trade Organisation. They therefore get tremendous perks and advantages, especially over the US. Does anybody think this is fair. We were badly represented. The WTO is unfair to US,” Mr Trump tweeted.

Being classed as a developing nation they get the advantage of low tariffs on their own exported goods, while they also can put heavy tariffs on imported goods to make their domestic alternatives more competitive.
It is unfair, since they are in no shape or form a developing country anymore.
The wto does allow some leeway in protectionism for developing countries. But at the end of the day tarrifs are agrement between 2 nations. It's up to each countries how they want to impose tarrifs. You don't like china, go slap a high tarrif on them, nobody's stopping you, just like nobody can stop trump from impossing a tarrif on aluminium.
Besides. The aim of wto is zero tarrifs, what trump does is tarrif discrimination and predatory, it's the very thing wto wants to tackle in the first place.
Weren't this whole free trade ideas comes from the us?
