Wilber Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Trump just can't function unless he is surrounded by cheerleaders. This way Il Duce won't have to stage rallies to get his ego pumped up. But he probably will. Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC

He banned those he accuses of publishing "fake news" Of course it is politically motivated because regardless of who he banned, excluding those six is a clear threat to all news agencies of what can happen if they aggravate him.

It is motivated by "fake news" and bias, not politics, no different then any other administration before it......no different than any other Western Government. In this case, CNN and NYT etc have been going after unsubstantiated reports of ties between people in the Administration and Russia........last week, the New York Times ran a story, with no evidence, claiming the Trump campaign held daily conversations with the Russians.......the FBI itself said such stories are B.S CNN, New York Times etc, if they're going to report stuff worthy of the National Enquirer, why should they be given special access?

Wilber Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 That was reported by multiple agencies, not just the NYT. Priebus has said the FBI has told him that and is under fire for trying to get the FBI to make a public statement on the issue.

I'm currently watching Chris Wallace anchoring the Factor, and their take differs.......and is reported as much: Quote Fox News has learned that McCabe indeed had initiated the conversation, asking to speak with Priebus for a few minutes at the end of an intelligence meeting last week. During that conversation, McCabe informed the chief of staff that the Times story was wrong. Priebus wanted to know what he could do, but apparently was told later by McCabe that the FBI couldn’t be calling balls and strikes on every news story. FBI Director James Comey later told Priebus he could go out and refute the story, which he did.

betsy Posted February 25, 2017 Author Report Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) On 5/5/2016 at 8:36 AM, betsy said: His first 100 days will be a flurry of activities to implement most of the policies he'd promised. Here's an excerpt from a lengthy article how he says it would look: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/05/us/politics/donald-trump-president.html?_r=0 Looking back at that OP, and relating his interview with what he's done so far.......he's indeed different. Like he's said at the Conservative Conference: "The era of empty talk is over." This article was written in May, 2016. Quote Despite his radical vision of how to remake America, and all his outrageous talk on juvenile subjects like his anatomy — to say nothing of the polls showing him behind Hillary Clinton — Jan. 20 may find the most underestimated politician in America assuming the presidency. While professing some surprise at his success, Mr. Trump increasingly sounds like a man who thinks he knows where he will be eight months from now, and the unrivaled power he will hold. He talked of turning the Oval Office into a high-powered board room, empowering military leaders over foreign affairs specialists in national security debates, and continuing to speak harshly about adversaries. He may post on Twitter less, but everyone will still know what he thinks. “As president, I’ll be working from the first day with my vice president and staff to make clear that America will be changing in major ways for the better,” Mr. Trump said in a telephone interview on Saturday. “We can’t afford to waste time. I want a vice president who will help me have a major impact quickly on Capitol Hill, and the message will be clear to the nation and to people abroad that the American government will be using its power differently.” https://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/05/us/politics/donald-trump-president.html His confidence - his vision - is amazing! Like, he knew for sure he'll be the one sitting as President. This guy tackles everything like pieces on a chess board. His first 100 days are on track with what he said he'd do! They're indeed a flurry of activities - fulfilling promises he's made as fast as he can. Edited February 25, 2017 by betsy Quote
betsy Posted February 25, 2017 Author Report Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) He's had meetings with the auto industry - and it was productive! He had a meeting with Manufacturing CEOs a few days ago. BRINGING BACK JOBS! JOBS. JOBS. JOBS. He's physically participated in negotiations! That's what he's promised, didn't he? That he'd be negotiating! What politician has done what he's been doing - within the first 100 days? Edited February 25, 2017 by betsy Quote
Wilber Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 This is going to be interesting. How did sanity sneak into the Trump administration? McMaster differs from Trump position on Muslims and Russia. Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC

McMaster differs from Trump position on Muslims and Russia. If he isn't on board, and he PUBLICLY opposes the President - who's only doing what got him elected - I suppose, we'd be saying adios amigo to this guy pretty soon. Meh. If this is true.....now I understand why looney John McCain was so enthusiastically in favor of this guy. McCain's reaction should've been a red flag. Edited February 25, 2017 by betsy Quote
eyeball Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Yup, I doubt Trump's team has much time or patience for any snowflakes. Was this McMaster a draft dodger or something? He should probably be sent to a re-education camp or pushed out of an airplane or something. 1 1 Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.
