Trump: The First 100 Days

Climate change is fake news

What exactly is your idea of what the 21st century should be? Is it “progressive” to just throw your money to the government and smoke out the reality that its a shitty idea?

Yes, NASA, climate scientists, James Mattis and the majority of US citizens are all wrong, because Raj from the internet said so.

with this point, the majority of US citizens’ understanding of the issue barely scratches the surface of what it should to reasonably form any kind of opinion. I wouldn’t throw that in there like a feather in the cap my dude

He wants to cut education by 9 billion and it should be cut by 59 billion. Yeah get rid of the Education Department. Let the states take care of their own education. My gosh the founding fathers would be rolling in their graves if they had any idea how big this bloated bureaucracy has become.

President Trump did not go far enough in cutting back the budget. But a fair start.

Agreed actually. I wish he hadn’t bitched out on defense spending. We might actually have a shot of a balanced budget if Trump was a fiscal conservative instead of the weird gray area he’s in.

The original question was:

What do you call a President who uses the IRS to harass conservative groups?
[/quote] [emphasis mine]

In this regard:

“The evidence available so far indicates IRS employees behaved poorly but did so in a silo; it was not reflective of corruption from the White House or external forces.” [emphasis mine]

Next thing you know, you guys will be tweeting that Obama is a bad (or sick) guy! who wiretapped the Trump campaign…

Climate change is a way for scientists to get more government funding, they’re essentially using it to hold taxpayers hostage. If it’s the number one threat to humanity better have the government throw piles of money at the problem right? There are plenty of examples of climate skeptic scientists constantly being pushed out of the conversation.

Secondly climate models have proven over and over to be inaccurate. how on earth can we accurately create models on something as complex as climate?

Lastly the easiest way to really minimize over consumption is to roll back government spending as government spending leads to gross over consumption . You’ll notice they never mention this… Guess why?

You make a good point. But over the past 8 years our military has taken on the chin. It needs to be somewhat rebuilt.

Yes, I agree with you, I also have some land in Florida that is for sale and I think you are the perfect suck…err person to purchase said land.

:wink:

Given the fact that there was ABSOLUTELY ZERO SCRUTINY by the press or the rest of the government regarding our first black President I would not put anything past him. You know what they say about absolute power right?

ICE removes Ethiopian who committed genital mutilation

How dare ICE remove these poor sweet illegal’s. It’s just a shame we have borders…what is this country coming to?

It doesn’t involve ramping up the failed war on drugs, propping up failing industries, gutting science, or building a wall so you can give enormous tax breaks to the wealthy.

You’re sounding more Trump-like with every comment.

Sure they’ve caught a lot of shit, but that doesn’t mean you throw a stupid amount of extra money at the black hole that is our defense budget. One of the silver linings I was REALLLLLY looking forward to with a business focused POTUS was the efforts to streamline the military and reduce waste. Looks like most of his budget changes are just falling in line with traditional republican ideals.

Edit: Not just the military, I was hoping he’d streamline most of the departments that waste huge amounts of money.

Climate change is not in any way fake news.

You keep using that phrase. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Yeah, I do not like the boost to defense spending at all. I do however love his boost to Veterans. Even though it’s all going to go asshat bureacrats that keep the VA waiting lines long its at least in the right area.

NONE of that means that “Climate change” is fake news. Because it’s not.

It may mean it is sickeningly politicized, but not fake.
