The Donald Trump Score Card

Hey everyone, didn't Trumpy badmouth Obama for spending too much time at the golf course? How many days did Trumpy spend on the golf course in his first year? Does anyone have these figures?

 

tried by Chris Christie. That's why Christie never became a member of the trump cabinet.

 

After Qatar refused to loan Jared 500 million buckaroos, he retaliated against them by blaming them for terror. That sort of changed the game in the Middle east. He and Trump have been courting Saudi Arabia which is one of the worst places on earth. They kill anyone for anything. There are no human rights in Saudi Arabia and as long as the Trump administration supports them, there will be no human rights there. Kushner/Trump/Pence also put the screws to the Palestinians by enhancing ethnic cleansing in the Occupied Palestinian Lands.

 

Instability is one of the first signs of mental illness.

 

She's the one I was talking about earlier...post 5878...she seems to know a bit about Deripaska/Manafort.Trump. I think Mueller will send a team to go and interview her.

 

She'll be dead before she can testify about the crime families of Blump and Pootin.

Trump Reaches a Landmark: Spends 100th Day in Office at One of His Golf Clubs

"Saturday marked Trump’s 36th visit to his West Palm Beach club while he has visited Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, 40 times; the Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, 23 times; and he golfed with professional players at the Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter, Florida once, according to CNN’s count. The tally means Trump has spent almost 25 percent of his days in office at one of his golf clubs. That doesn’t mean that he’s actually hit the links, though the White House usually keeps mum about the president’s schedule when he’s at his properties."

 

Tweeting from Mar-a-Lago, Trump escalates the trade war.

Hitler
Psychological Analysis & Reconstruction

OSS Psychological Profile of Hitler, Part Five

"The world has come to know Adolph Hitler for his insatiable greed for power, his ruthlessness, cruelty and utter lack-of feeling, his contempt for established institutions and his lack of moral restraints. In the course of relatively few years he has contrived to usurp such tremendous power that a few veiled threats, accusations or insinuations were sufficient to make the world tremble. In open defiance of treaties he occupied huge territories and conquered millions of people without even firing a shot. When the world became tired of being frightened and concluded that it was all a bluff, he initiated the most brutal and devastating war in history - a war which, for a time, threatened the complete destruction of our civilization. Human life and human suffering seem to leave this individual completely untouched as he plunges along the course he believes he was predestined to take.

Earlier in his career the world had watched him with amusement. Many people refused to take him seriously on the grounds that "he could not possibly last." As one action after another met with amazing success and the measure of the man became more obvious, this amusement was transformed into incredulousness. To most people it seemed inconceivable that such things could actually happen in our modern civilization. Hitler, the leader of these activities, became generally regarded as a madman, if not inhuman. Such a conclusion, concerning the nature of our enemy, may be satisfactory from the point of view [Page 142] of the man in the street. It gives him a feeling of satisfaction to pigeon-hole an incomprehensible individual in one category or another. Having classified him in this way, he feels that the problem is completely solved. All we need to do is to eliminate the madman from the scene of activities, replace him with a sane individual, and the world will again return to a normal and peaceful state of affairs.

This naive view, however, is wholly inadequate for those who are delegated to conduct the war against Germany or for those who will be delegated to deal with the situation when the war is over. They cannot content themselves with simply regarding Hitler as a personal devil and condemning him to an Eternal Hell in order that the remainder of the world may live in peace and quiet. They will realize that the madness of the part of wholly the actions of a single individual but that a reciprocal relationship exists between the Fuehrer and the people and that the madness of the one stimulates and flows into the other and vice versa. It was not only Hitler, the madman, who created German madness, but German madness which created Hitler. Having created him as its spokesman and leader, it has been carried along by his momentum, perhaps far beyond the point where it was originally prepared to go. Nevertheless, it continues to follow his lead in spite of the fact that it must be obvious to all intelligent people now that his path leads to inevitable destruction. [Page 143] "

 

Wow. Just wow, because I don't know jack about economies. I don't really understand business, but it would seem he's trying to use American Steel and products etc. as opposed to importing. It wouldn't kill us to do that, but it's more expensive. Possibly more ethical, because you don't know the working conditions in those other countries. Like they might not get breaks and stuff like that. Can you imagine that? Working in a steel mill and not getting a break... That would be awful. Anyway I'm speculating, and I digress... I think it's only slightly amusing to me, and the market doesn't seem to like it very much. Is he taking too big a chance on the fate of steel in America? I don't know the answers. It's not in my sociology text, and I haven't taken any economics in a long long time. I never was good at the econ graphs either, with the diagonal line... anyway

 

Well, here's some good news. Blump has nominated Peter Wright to the EPA. Wright, a former lawyer for Dow Chemical will be in charge of the super fund sites. That Dow Chemical helped create in part. Now we're cookin."

 

And tonight when that guy shot himself at the White House, CNN says The President wasn't there, because he was at his club in Florida...play golf!

 

And he put an anti abortion idiot in charge of the refugee resettlement program. So the guy has been denying abortions to refugee women. In one case, he told a woman if she carries her child to term, the child would be an American Citizen and she could benefit from Trump's Chain Migration Exceptions.

 

Trump's abortion policy sheds light on ad hoc decision-making

Trump's abortion policy sheds light on ad hoc decision-making

excerpt:

"According to the depositions, Lloyd denied all seven requests for abortions that reached his desk between March and Dec. 19. He admitted that he believes undocumented minors don’t have a constitutional right to an abortion, even in the case of rape, and that he received a spreadsheet every week with details of all pregnant minors in ORR’s care.

Lloyd also said that he spoke with White House staff about the abortion policy, but not with the HHS secretary, which was Tom Price for most of that period. He said that he had not reviewed abortion policies of other agencies responsible for immigrants.

Under the Obama administration, ORR developed and publicly posted a policy guide so that shelters, immigration attorneys and others would know of changes, said Mark Greenberg, a senior fellow at the Migration Policy Institute and former head of the Administration of Children and Families, the HHS division that includes ORR.

All policies — regardless of whether they went through a formal rulemaking process or were posted in the policy guide — were always reviewed by legal counsel to be sure that they were complying with federal law, Greenberg said.

In the case of the ORR’s abortion policy, the new guidelines created confusion for shelters caught between concerns about violating state law and fears of losing their HHS contract to house unaccompanied minors."

 

Here’s How Trump Could Really Hurt China on Trade

Here’s How Trump Could Really Hurt China on Trade

"The U.S. focus on narrowing the bilateral trade deficit puts China in an untenable position because it’s driven as much by macroeconomic conditions in the two countries as it is by trade policies, says Eswar Prasad, a former chief of the International Monetary Fund’s China division and now a professor at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.

With a major fiscal expansion underway in the U.S. at a time when the economy is already gaining momentum, the U.S. trade deficit is bound to rise further, says Kuijs at Oxford Economics.

That sets the stage for a potential tit-for-tat trade confrontation. China’s economic might gives Xi’s government the leverage it needs to strike back decisively, including scaling back purchases of American products and subjecting well-known U.S. companies with large Chinese operations to tax or antitrust probes.

China hasn’t been shy about threatening U.S. corporate interests. A Communist Party newspaper warned in late 2016 that a trade war would have economic consequences. “Boeing orders will be replaced by Airbus,” the Global Times said in an editorial. “U.S. auto and iPhone sales in China will suffer a setback, and U.S. soybean and maize imports will be halted.”"

 

That's the fundamental problem in Republican political thinking: If Republicans think you don't have constitutional rights, then you don't get human rights. In their world you wouldn't get basic human rights like safe water to drink, safe food to eat, safe medical care to live, protections from police abuse, protections from torture, worship they way you wish, and education for your children.

 

and the dumbass has been in office for 407 days.
