As president you don't control the media. True but a President is a leader and confining "what I would do as president" to exclude having a President advocate for something pretty much discounts most of what Presidents do since they aren't Congress either and can only ask that laws be sent to their desk. Some day you should actually read the Constitution of the United States and find out what a President does. tmiddles wrote: GasGuzzler wrote: tmiddles wrote:... 40 people are not going to try to break into your house tonight, I promise.

Yes, and Trump is working hard on building a relationship with you. Do you accept? What? I'm not mainstream Islam.

You saw the list. ZERO of those events would have been effected by a PERMANENT ban on the countries on Trumps list.

Argument of ignorance fallacy. tmiddles wrote: So I guess you don't agree that getting Trump to piss off 1.8 billion Muslims just might be an ISIS strategy? ISIS does not represent Islam. Banning travel from nations that support and condone terrorism is a valid action by the President. You are being irrational.

A president has a lot of influence, particularly over supporters as to what the priorities are. Trump has definitely worked to intensify concern about radical islamic terror in the US.

You could not reward radical islamic terrorist more fully than to place them on the pedestal they were hoping for. Ironically Trump, in ignoring McVeigh, would be in McVeigh's view be cheating him of his prize. The fame, recognition and most of all fear of the people. This is the plaque Trump hung on the wall for Radical Islam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa3edsMzHkA Do you think the people pictured would be ashamed to be in the ad?

You will be the greatest terrorists if you just give me a little something to work with" That's not helping at all.

Terrorist will keep attacking, keep going bigger, until they get the attention, and recognition they want and need. We don't have suicide-bombers (like in the middle east) over here, because we take it seriously, and work hard to stop them. You imply that Trump is a racist, mostly because he doesn't care who he goes after. Race and gender, isn't a magic shield, to hide behind, when you do bad things. The democrats are the most racist, bigoted people on the planet. They have to place everyone in separate groups, they either attack or defend these groups, use these groups, but they never just treat all people equally. This is why Trump will win in 2020. He's just talking to people, voters. Democrats target individual groups of voters. Racism isn't about hate, it's treating people, as if they are some how different.

You don't get it, do you? Trump's trade war with China is because Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is in tight with the Chinese. He's connected to their elite just as his wife is. Trump withheld military aid to Ukraine because He is pro Russia. Why go against Russia if he can't show Putin that he got something in return? That's politics. Me? I think Republicans will impeach him. Something like that would give Republicans a lot of political clout. If Democrats decided not to pursue impeachment because of a Republican controlled senate, they would have gotten the political clout. What you need to consider is if Republicans are willing to risk the next election. In politics that is what Republicans will be thinking about. A Trump loss would hurt the Republican party but a Trump win might do more damage. I was in the US Navy, damage control sometimes is the most important thing you can do. If not, then you might not have a ship.

Nah, I just live in Ky., home of Mitch McConnell. I need to change states. Mitch wants to shape the US in Kentucky's image. In his 2014 campaign he said that he was going to run the US from Kentucky the way it should be ran. That commercial got pulled. Still, he's most likely the person to decide President Trump's fate. And since trucking companies are having a hard time because of fewer imports, it's also hurting Mitch's family. A father-in-law and mother-in-law are family.

James___ ★★★★★ (5513)	With the 2020 elections being talked about, what would guarantee a Republican win would be if Mike Pence was the Republican candidate. And this could help Senator McConnell's family as well. If that does happen, just Republicans and the Republican party looking out for themselves.

Rome exploited, murdered and stole as they desired. They did not understand what it meant to take responsibility for one's own actions. p.s., when Senator McConnell and his wife received a gift of over $30 million, both should have been removed from their positions in government. While the money came from family, it came from a shipping business as well. Since they both hold political offices that could influence the profitability of that business, it creates a conflict of interest. How could either one impose or enforce rules on a family business that they benefit as a result of its profits? This is like President Trump using his own businesses to conduct affairs of state which profits him. It is a conflict of interest because the meetings in question might only be for increasing his personal "Trump" brand. Edited on 14-12-2019 04:26
