President Trump told Americans that he was a businessman, not a politician

Seemed like a welcomed change because he won the election

And people are surprised that he isnt doing what every other politician President has done in the past?....

I think its a great change from the typical predictable and ineffective Presidents of the past.

Like Canada, the US is getting what they voted for.

Oh, by the way, NO ONE in the USA knows or cares who Justin Trudeau is. Absolutely no one. ........ nope not even one person

Stuff more so like that.
Ok, apply this logic to Trump’s campaign vs Clinton.

It is a fact he largely funded his own campaign. He won, he has followed through with promises, all of them positive.

Hillary had so much foreign money involved it was scary, and still is. If she followed through with her promises we know markets would be experiencing a steady decline, her policies were simply not business friendly.

You are blinded by your hatred towards Trump. As are the rest of the left wingers out there. Conservative policies are sustainable, Socialist policies are not. Which road do you want to travel on?

Default US Economy

I was no fan of Hilary Clinton, and think that she was the one person who could have lost to Donald Trump. The US economy has been improving for 9 years now, and has continued to improve under Trump. So he hasn't managed to screw it up yet. I hope I'm still able to say that in 3 years time. There is no doubt that his policies would be good for the stock market (at least in the short term), obviously tax cuts for corporations enable company's to keep more money. However, the real test will be if company profits "trickle down" to the working man, and history has shown this not to be the case, which will then cause a recession in a couple of years time.

Also national polls are selected based on demographics and regions.
Ha did you see how Montana voted this last election? While the state went republican, we have re-elected a democratic governor for his 2nd term. We have a high concentration of liberal leaning folks in the largest cities in the state as we keep attracting Californians which if I recall right that state went democratic. If you think that they don’t bring their liberal ideologies here your a special kind of stupid. You sir don’t appear to know what your talking aboutas I don’t conduct polls. What I am referring to is As I’ve already said what I hearfrom the x number of 4000000 tourists that pass through my town every year heading into Yellowstone. I don’t ask anyone anything it’s what I hear and observe going about my business.

Default Interesting.

The stats don't lie.
Within minutes of President Donald Trump's first State of the Union speech, CBS News revealed their YouGov poll approval ratings on it.
Unsurprisingly, 97% of Republican speech watchers liked it.
More surprisingly, 72% of Independents liked it.
Staggeringly, 43% of Democrats liked it.

I likeTrump and always have ,he knows what the people want,and he's delivering, tax cuts, jobs,safer neighborhoods,helping the vets and the military and many other things ,what's not to like?You don't like his hairdo? Not as eloquent as other presidents? This man may well be the best president of all times.I think that people have right to sit on their hands sometimes but to do it all the time is totally disrespectful, he'll that Whitehouse must be one crazy workplace. If this memo is as big as they are leading people to believe Trump may have to hire more security, just my opinion.

That the entertainment world has so much influence on the populace is in my opinion dangerous and treasonous in my opinion.

McCarthyism was just a few decades early. When does the sequel kick in?

Tomorrow or really today in the afternoon,ANDREW MACCABE is in pile of trouble,he was fired 1 hour after the memo was read,about as fast they could read it and run over and boot him out,There will be many running for the hills and lord only knows how many get booted out with or without jail time.

Characters like this have no character and without that there's no integrity and it's not fair to the others who really try and do good work for the law,the very fabric of the tapestry that bonds the usa is trust in there premier law enforcements and there going to come apart at the seems ,but that's part of draining the swamp.
