The 31st Weak of Donald-The Dick!

[JackLuis]

Trump is losing

President Donald Trump is doing more to divide the country, 62 percent of voters say, while 31 percent say he is doing more to unite the country, his worst score on this question, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today.

President Trump gets a negative 35 – 59 percent overall job approval rating, down from a negative 39 – 57 percent rating in an August 17. . . . Every party, gender, education, age and racial group disapproves except Republicans, who approve 77 – 14 percent; white voters with no college, approving 52 – 40 percent, and white men, who approve by a narrow 50 – 46 percent. American voters disapprove 60 – 32 percent of Trump’s response to the events in Charlottesville.

That’s not all. According to the poll, “Voters disapprove 63 – 31 percent, including 56 – 38 percent among white voters, of the way Trump is handling race relations. The president does not care about issues facing minority groups, voters say 60 – 37 percent, including 52 – 45 percent among white voters.” And he even managed to make the media credible — well, by comparison. (“American voters disapprove 55 – 40 percent of the way the news media covers Trump, and disapprove 62 – 35 percent of the way the president talks about the media. Voters trust the media more than Trump 54 – 36 percent ‘to tell you the truth about important issues.'”)

Trump is losing

and somehow that 31 percent believe that they are the majority.

The real reason Trump is not a Republican

"We are the party of Abraham Lincoln..."

This is like an iguana bragging that great-grampa was a T.Rex. Delusions of adequacy...

As for Tromp's identity -- he is exactly what both right-wing and corporate mainstream media made, the axis of the party base that worships him. Faux, Rush, Jones, Drudge et al fabricated an alt.reality begging for dictatorship. MSM afforded him shitloads of free airtime to rant. Welcome to the fun zone.

No, he's not an Establishment Republican. But the Establishment no base -- they hold the infrastructure but not the heart. GOP are now the Tromp Party.

As Trump ends his 31st Weak, his continued failure to provide leadership is very evident!

Trump’s Afghanistan plan the ‘definition of insanity’

Republican and Democrat legislators alike were left shaking their heads in disbelief at President Donald Trump's plan to increase the number of U.S. troops in Afghanistan this week, as anger grew over his lack of strategy to end the 16-year conflict.

“We are so frustrated,” Walter Jones, a Republican House Representative from North Carolina tells Newsweek. “We are sitting right here, spending billions up to trillions of dollars, we have nothing to show for it.”

Jones—together with his Democrat colleague, Representative John Garamendi, from Northern California—is pushing a bipartisan bill that proposes to defund the war to allow Congress to debate the future of the conflict.

But the Speaker of the House, Republican Paul Ryan, is blocking it, they say.

The war in Afghanistan, launched in 2001 by George W. Bush after 9/11, when the country was providing sancutary to Osama bin Laden, has cost upward of $1 trillion and resulted in the deaths of 2,403 U.S. servicemen and women. More than 16 years later, most of the country remains a war zone, and the Taliban controls more territory than at any time since the American invasion began.

As the sun sets on his 31st Weak Congress is revolting, still.

Another Nazi leaves the White House!

Controversial Trump aide Sebastian Gorka resigns from White House following Charlottesville backlash

Embattled Presidential Deputy Assistant Sebastian Gorka has resigned from his post in the White House, The Federalist reported.

In his resignation letter, Gorka cites “forces” at odds with the “Make America Great Again” dream as the reasoning behind his exit.

“[G]iven recent events, it is clear to me that forces that do not support the MAGA promise are – for now – ascendant within the White House,” Gorka’s resignation reads. “As a result, the best and most effective way I can support you, Mr. President, is from outside the People’s House.”

Controversial advisor claims he ‘did not resign’ — even tho he no longer works at White House

Late Friday night, controversial White House advisor Sebastian Gorka leaked his resignation letter to The Federalist, claiming he could help President Donald Trump better from outside.

The White House is disputing that account.

“Sebastian Gorka did not resign, but I can confirm he no longer works at the White House,” was the official statement the pool received. The White House requested the quote be attributed to “a White House Official” (sic).

In a statement late Friday, the White House announced that President Donald Trump granted a presidential pardon to Joe Arpaio. The move comes just weeks after Trump equated white supremacists with counter-protesters.

‘Embrace of racist policing’: Internet lights up over Trump’s pardoning of ‘blight on humanity’ Joe Arpaio

On Friday night, shortly after news broke that President Donald Trump had pardoned former Texas Sheriff Joe Arpaio from his short sentence for racial profiling, The Internet lit up.

“Dear Hispanic non-voters: this is about xenophobic hatred of primarily *your* families,” MSNBC’s Joy Reid tweeted. “You have the numbers to stop this. Use them. Vote.”

“DT is so incredibly not racist he just pardoned Sherrif Joe Arpaio, who is racist,” producer John Fugelsang wrote.

Harvard Law professor Noah Feldmen claimed Trump committed an impeachable offense in pardoning Arpaio due to the former Maricopa County Sheriff’s holding in criminal contempt for resisting authority. Trump’s pardoning of Arpaio, Feldman argues, would be a refutation of judicial authority.
