I watched it. He gave a great speech and his message was clear: In order to keep improving the economy and making conservative policies, Republicans need to hold on to the majority in Congress. Who cares WHO is running on the R side, you just gotta vote for them or lose all the progress Trump has made.All these people who claim Trump is in a panic because of Mueller, well, I was within about 20 feet of the President for about an hour and a half tonight and the guy has never looked better, more confident and self assured, There is no doubt in this man's mind that he has always been on the right side of issues and shall prevail and I agree. The place was filled, I'd say at least 10,000 people there (aircraft hanger) and was packed. Many more outside. The overwhelming theme of people there was that Trump was electric! He exudes confidence and inspires enthusiasm. He talked quite a bit about many things national and international quickly giving the listener insights on the great differences between how things really happen vs. the way the media portray the stories. When you are in the presence of Trump, you realize that here is a guy who is really talking to you, it is all off the cuff, not practiced, rehearsed or poll-studied, at one point he was giving his opinion on a certain topic and admitted, he didn't even know whether his view was popular or not. This man has boundless energy and enthusiasm for the work he is doing for the country and has only gotten stronger and picked up steam since taking office. He was extremely fluid, nimble and comfortable. Here is a man who is an ordinary businessman off the street working in a Washington setting trying to get lifetime career politicians to start looking at things from the POV of the American people! He even had to fight with them about what to name the tax bill! The people in Washington live in a closed universe and have no idea what you and I think, value, need or want. But after the event tonight, the takeaway from all is that Trump is doing great and has the people's confidence more than ever. He was great. Very refreshing to know that such a person is backing our country!
He's a formidable opponent, no matter what CNN says. I don't like the guy, but the media IS being ridiculous. There's coverage--which we need--and then there's obsessive snarling and bitching that never ends.
I hate Trump's broad- brush take on illegals as MS-13 characters. Over 100 of the illegals that ICE wanted to arrest in Oakland did not have any criminal history at all. If ICE were actually doing what the President said they would do and focusing on violent criminals, I think I'd feel more confident in these raids. When they arrest some poor guy who snuck over here twenty years ago to live a decent life, and who now works mowing lawns and trimming shrubbery, THAT's what people object to. That is the opposite of what Trump promised. Now he has unleashed his dogs and is sending home everyone regardless if they're "dangerous" or not. That is why some people are screaming about it, I think.
You honestly thought that he gave a great speech yesterday?
