Trump: The First 100 Days

Very true. I guess we’ll have to settle for polarizing most of the population to a level we’ve never seen before.

But the damage he COULD have done. Bet repub consultants and superpacs were shitty bricks about the opportunity until they realized how polarized he made everything.

“This rhetoric is dangerous, disturbing, and dishonest,” Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance, said in a statement.

The logic that Trump is incapable of putting out a policy that’s scary or dangerous just because it’s Trump breaks my mind.

You sound like the most leftist Obama supporter that ever existed in his hayday.

They’re an organization dedicated to getting rid of or minimizing drug laws.

Why would they ever support a tough on drugs president?

It loses all meaning when everything he does is practically described that way

Doesn’t fix your broken af logic. Not even close.

What the hell is broken?

How can you discern an actually potential scary or dangerous policy if they label most things he does that way?

By looking at it case by case? By not being a sheep to headlines?

The broken part was the part where any anti Trump article that calls a policy scary or dangerous is auto BS.

No I’d rather wait for him to mess up before criticising him. He was elected in large part for his judgment.

Edit : if we had an honest media my answer would be different

Have you personally criticized him for any of his mistakes? Not judging, just asking (I haven’t been around here long, but the overarching comment on you is that you haven’t).

Also if all media is dishonest, by default the ones posting good things about him are lying. Just saying

Oh I agree, I think the inmates get banged pretty hard personally…and companies are profiting heavily off them, meanwhile they aren’t employing people to do the same job at a much higher rate, and oftentimes the inmate can’t get the same job when they get out.

This part in particular cannot be overstated lol.

On a serious note though, it’s completely sad how often the Republicans can shoot themselves in the foot.

Have you paid attention to ANY news? Even taking away the nit-pciky BS articles and just focusing on what’s actually happened since he took office, his administration has been a fucking train wreck.

Ancient Romans knew how to handle the border towards " the barbarians" (latin: limes) otherwise they wouldn’t have lasted for over 2000 years in one form or the other.

People think that the Roman border was a physical separation wall protected by fearless legions hermetically sealing one of the greatest civilizations from the bearded trouser wearing savages (note: wearing trousers was considered the ultimate depravity by the Romans, alongside human sacrifice, cannibalism and eating while sitting)

The truth was very different - Roman legions did provide security on the border, but their major tasks were collecting tax and custom duties from the lively trade between “barbarians” and Rome. That’s why marvels of Roman defensive engineering such as the Hadrian wall had gates for barbarian ox carts to facilitate and control (tax) cross-border trade.

Romans knew that in order to increase the security of their frontier, they needed to increase the economic well being of barbarian tribes just across their border. These barbarian lands provided a market for Roman products (Germanic barbarian tribes were buying massive quantities of Roman wine at exorbitant prices, leading to the spread of the new invention called barrels) while the barbarians provided agricultural products and luxury items such as tin and amber and provided what you’d call migrant artisan workers for Roman garrison towns on the frontier, not to mention manpower for the Roman legions.

The major source of livelihood for Germanic tribes close to the Roman border were, beside subsistence agriculture, funds sent by their tribesmen in Roman service, working either as artisans, traders or soldiers.

What’s the lesson for the modern-day Roman Empire called the USA? Help Mexico improve it’s economic situation, The better off Mexico is, the less people will come to the US. Despite @therajraj’s racist fantasies US-Mexico relations are not a zero sum game and migration is a combination of push and pull factors affecting population transfers.

To illustrate this point, in the 70ies and 80ies African migrants constantly tried to enter apartheid South Africa, despite it’s abhorrent record of treating Africans not to mention extensive border fortifications and walls. It’s just that the pull factors (South African need for semi-skilled manual laborers) as well as push (horrible state of their home economies such as Nigeria and Zaire/DRC) outweighed the migrant’s abhorrence towards racial laws.

Studies made in the EU show that immigrants are highly susceptible to economic changes both in their host and home countries, the prime example being Poland. As soon as Polish economy started growing at higher than-EU average rates, Poles started coming back to Poland proper.

Of course, another option is for Trump to destroy the American economy and the US in general, thereby reducing it’s attractiveness as a destination for potential immigrants. Maybe there’s a method in his madness after all…

Tyler, Tyler, Tyler…relax and breath. You are far too young to get stressed out over Trump going after the drug cartels.

"Aside from the cartels, Trump did not elaborate on who would be at the receiving end of that ruthlessness. In a campaign speech in New Hampshire last October, Trump outlined the drug control policies he supported, including expanded treatment options for drug users and better access to anti-overdose drugs.

New Hampshire’s number one problem according to polling data is heroin and other drug usage. It’s a problem Tyler and one that has to be dealt with. The Professor and Chief is gone now we have a real leader who is ready to take action.

You feeling better buddy?

:smile:

After your condescending, partisan reply? Oh yeah, loads.

You want it to be a train wreck but actually Tyler this is what it looks like when you have a President who takes action.

1-Conservative Judge nominated to the Supreme Court.

2-Plans for Obamacare to go down.

  1. Signed into law the pipeline and they must use American manufactured steel.

  2. Signed into law that for every new regulation two must disappear.

  3. Already tightening up the border

Plenty more really good stuff…

Trump’s doing a good job so far. But it’s okay to hate him. Lefty’s must hate him in order to keep the game going. Next time you see a group with kerchiefs over their faces breaking store windows try to resist the desire to join them.

Stay right here and complain all you want and I will be here to listen.

Feel better?

:smile:

I have another one above that you’ll like just as much.

Keep in mind that I am mainly here to entertain not just inform.

Thus far what I really don’t like that he’s done:

  1. chose Pudzer the notorious cheap labor advocate to his cabinet . I think pudzer even employs an illegal as a maid

  2. he hasn’t ended DACA immediately when he said he would
