Yes. This is a President at war. What an embarrassment. At least the helicopter occupants were rescued. Who will rescue America from this boob?

Trump will never negotiate a better deal with Iran than Obama’s team did with the JCPOA. Even with its problems, it would have held Iran around 3% uranium enhancement for ten years. Because of trump and his foolishness, it’s now at 60%, which is enough to build a bomb. Remove this traitor.

Well, Swalwell is out of the race for CA governor. Now what? So pissed at him and his ilk! And apparently, House leadership knew to discourage young female staffers away from him. Really!??? So tired of the boys’ club atmosphere. Come on, Congress. Find your morals!!

Trump wore his goofy golf hat to meet the airplane with our soldiers’ remains and didn’t remove it as they were brought back on American soil. I’m so disgusted. That this is our supposed commander in chief is just abhorrent.

Ok, so I watched a clip of the disastrous Katie Porter interview. She brought up some good points on the interviewer’s pickiness, but became unprofessional when she wanted to leave. We’ve had enough of this crap with trump interviews. We don’t need it from Porter. Is this her pattern? Good Lord.

I just watched Fareed Zakaria on CNN lay out the reasons China has been making a complete turnaround from previous years of stagnant growth. That country seems to be making great strides (internationally), while we’re stuck with a president who is petty, irrational, and corrupt. Sad.

Their threats are intended to scare Americans into silence as they roll over the Constitution. Congress, SCOTUS, legacy media, large corporations, etc. are complicit whenever they cave to these threats.

FFOTUS is trying to chill free speech by sending troops to American cities and giving top brass their “marching orders”. He and his loyalists are warning us not to protest as they take over all segments of American society. Keep your eyes open.

Today's speech by Donald Trump was not among the most dangerous ever given by a US public official. It was the most dangerous. And it's not even close.

This is the obnoxious (and false) way Trump talks about Portland: “I don’t know how anybody lives there. It’s amazing. It’s anarchy out there.” We see the pattern over and over: Invent a crisis, fake a solution, then claim victory to stroke his fragile ego. www.americaamerica.news/p/fabricatin...

Do we say a man is sane when he calls in the military to fight a war when there is no war? If such a man is not sane, do we have a solution to stop the madness if he’s in the White House?

Republicans in Congress: ABC made a business decision based on ratings and input from their viewers and advertisers. Trump and Carr: No, it was us. We hated him and demanded he be fired. I kinda have to believe Trump on this one.

A responsible president would act as president for all Americans, tone down divisive talk, and dispel lies and rumors. This so-called president jumps to blame opposition for political violence. (Reports suspect’s family members are trump republicans.) Anyone surprised?

There have been some vitriolic posts about putting a 10-year old victim on camera after (yet another) school shooting. Though this youngster was quite articulate about his experiences, and it might be effective to actually hear from surviving victims, this wasn’t the time or place.
