President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Today is "kick minorities day" for Trump. "Voter fraud" of course means "non-white citizens voting." He'll have to keep kicking minorities very hard to keep those sainted "white working class" voters from noticing the Republican party intends to shred their health and retirement security.

 

Trump endorsed Fox News yesterday.

That endorsement is scary as hell - for Fox.

 

Putin needs high oil prices.

 

Trump allegedly is going to order an investigation into the nonexistent voter fraud.

It's a Bad Time for Trump to Push for New U.S. Auto Factories

"President Donald Trump is asking U.S. automakers to invest in domestic manufacturing at a bad time.

Car sales have gained for seven-straight years after the U.S. auto bailouts and the financial crisis, a streak that’s close to running out of gas. That’s a recipe for trouble facing companies wary of undoing the painful but necessary steps they took to shut dozens of factories across the country, before and during a more than $70 billion government bailout."

 

"What an exceptional tool, the bailout, President Trump initiated — nay, invented — to keep high-paying American union jobs — a labor movement long supported by the Republican Party — in the United States."

 

"The president’s decision to recklessly forge ahead with a plan to unilaterally change our immigration laws ignores the will of the American people and flouts the Constitution."

 

Ted Cruz's mind is a jet engine installed in a Vega chassis.

 

There are two alternative endings here. 1. Investigation finds nothing, as there is nothing. Trump fires investigators. 2. Investigators give Trump what he wants -- fiction. Investigation is quickly revealed as fraudulent. GOP Congress creates national ID law anyway. Let's face it. A majority of the 46 percent of the voters who chose Trump don't think anyone but white people should vote.

 

In the meantime, the parts of Mississippi, Georgia and Florida hit by tornadoes over the weekend are begging the White House for help and hearing crickets. Those areas were about as pro-Trump in the election as anywhere in the country.

 

Hey he's got to shred their health and retirement security to take care of the 1 percent!
