Hey...what do you know....a Huffington Post propaganda piece. There has been no "attack on the press" by President Trump. That was done by Barack Obama.
Barack Obama spied on reporters, hacked into their computers, and blocked their access. Trump hasn't done any of that. All he has done is exercise his 1st Amendment rights. The fact that free speech causes the left-wing snowflakes to loose their shit and accuse him of "attacks on the press" is as comical as it is tragic.

They weren't just wrong snowflake - they were astoundingly wrong. They were so wrong that literally the polar opposite of their "prediction" occurred. Not only did Hitlery not win - she got slaughtered. She lost solid blue states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin - not to mention toss up states like Ohio and Florida.
Nobody could be that wrong. It proves that they manipulate the process and the data to get the results they want. Rational people have learned that lesson already. Clearly, people such as yourself have not.

I don´t think so. He realized that only those orders will be carried out that do not hurt the deep state´s agenda.

I realize that you get all of your ideas about how government functions from the Bourne Identity series, but this isn't Hollywood. Nobody is refusing the orders of the president (and especially this president). If they do, they'll be gone faster than you can post another four word statement. Hell, Barack Obama fired General Stanley McChrystal for merely voicing disagreement publicly. He wasn't even disobeying orders. And that man was not only a legend, not only a General, he was head of all Special Forces operations in Iraq.

He gets an A.
Polls? No - really - polls?!? Bwahahaha! Would those be the same polls that predicted Hiltery Clinton would win in a "landslide"?
The polls correctly indicated that Clinton would win the popular vote which she did. Also the low approval ratings of Trump also is showing up in polls that were friendlier to Trump during the campaign. Both Rasmussen and IBD have Trump in the low 30's.
Little wonder the stock market is up. All business has to do is tell the Republicans what they want and Republicans just say how high. The fact is that some of the regulations helped ordinary people yet they are being pushed aside through executive order or legislation.
Among them:
Allowing coal companies to put coal waste in rivers
Allowing financial advisors to line their pockets at the expense of their clients
Allowing big airlines to tack on hidden fees to their tickets without advance notification
Allowing companies to hide payments to foreign governments
Allowing ISPs to sell their customers' information
What you want is for the well off to be able to profit off the little guy who has no way to stand up to them.
Trump has nothing to do with the debt. He has not signed 1 spending bill. Any change in the debt and deficit is due to the last spending bill that Obama and the Congress agreed on.
They weren't just wrong snowflake - they were astoundingly wrong. They were so wrong that literally the polar opposite of their "prediction" occurred. Not only did Hitlery not win - she got slaughtered. She lost solid blue states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin - not to mention toss up states like Ohio and Florida.

She did not get clobbered. Trump won Florida and Michigan by only 1.3 percentage points, Pennsylvania by 1.2 and Wisconsin by 1. If Clinton got 1.4% in every state Clinton would have won. It was a close election and not a runaway for everyone. In addition, parts of the coalition that turned out for Obama did not turn out for Clinton. If Biden or even Sanders had run, Trump would have lost.

Snowflake....that's not what the polls said at all. The American people have grown so tired of you desperate wing-nuts trying to rewrite history. Lucky for us - we live in an era of technology where everything is in video to expose your lies. Here is bat-shit crazy Rachel Madcow talking about the polls. Note that the "popular vote" is not involved. It is ALL about the Electoral College and Hitlery Clinton becoming the next President of the United States. Any other lies you would like to attempt busybee01???

Thank you, Mr. President. You have been exceptional. You have kept your campaign promises, you have restored America's place in the world, and most of all - you have respected and upheld the U.S. Constitution. No where is that more evident than the way you have eliminated the unconstitutional government regulations...
1. Regulations governing the coal mining industry (H.J. Res 41).
Mandated by President Barack Obama and finalized in 2016, these regulations “threatened to put domestic extraction companies and their employees at an unfair disadvantage,” White House press secretary Sean Spicer said.
The resolution, signed by Trump in February, repealed the rule and “could save American businesses as much as $600 million annually,” Spicer said.
2. Regulations defining streams in the coal industry (H.J. Res 38).
3. Regulations restricting firearms for disabled citizens (H.J. Res 40).
This rule, finalized during Obama’s last weeks in office, sought to “prevent some Americans with disabilities from purchasing or possessing firearms based on their decision to seek Social Security benefits,” Spicer said.
4. A rule governing the government contracting process (H.J. Res. 37).
Undoing the regulation will cut costs to businesses and free federal contractors from “unnecessary and burdensome processes that would result in delays, and decreased competition for federal government contracts,” Spicer said.
5. A rule covering public lands (H.J. Res. 44).
The rule gave the federal government too much power “to administer public lands,” in the words of the official website of House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Cali
6. Reporting requirements regarding college teachers (H.J. Res. 58)
7. Regulations on state education programs (H.J. Res. 57).
The repeal is the first step in “a reconceptualization of Washington’s role in education,” Ryland said.
“These regulations were prime examples of federal micromanagement,” she said. “They were highly prescriptive and highly complex, serving only to put more power in the hands of bureaucrats and to distract schools and teachers from the work of educating students.”
8. Drug-testing requirements (H.J. Res 42).
Spicer said the regulation mandates an “arbitrarily narrow definition of occupations and constrains a state’s ability to conduct a drug-testing program in its unemployment insurance system.”
9. Hunting regulations for wildlife preserves in Alaska (H.J. Res 69).
These regulations restricted Alaska’s ability “to manage hunting of predators on national wildlife refuges in Alaska,” Spicer said.
In a formal statement, Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, called the rule “another example of the federal government’s determination these past eight years to destroy a state’s ability to manage their wildlife.”
10. Internet privacy rule (S.J.Res. 34).
Published during the final months of Obama’s presidency, the rule sought to force “new privacy standards on internet service providers, allowing bureaucrats in Washington to pick winners and losers in the industry,” Spicer said.
11. Rule for logging workplace injuries (H.J. 83).
This rule from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration sought to squelch a more lenient one from the Labor Department. Spicer said the rule “disapproved” of a Labor regulation “extending the statute of limitation for claims against employers failing to maintain records of employee injuries.”
“This OSHA power grab was completely unlawful,” said Rep. Bradley Byrne, R-Ala., chairman of the House workforce protections subcommittee. “It would have done nothing to improve workplace safety"
12. Rule preventing states from withholding funds from Planned Parenthood (H.J. Res 43).
By undoing this rule, Congress and the president allow states to opt out of letting federal funds go to Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider.
13. Rule on retirement savings (H.J. Res 67).
Promulgated during Obama’s last full month in office, the rule allowed states to create public retirement funds. However, it also eliminated protections from those public plans that initially were covered under a law that set standards for private sector employee pension and health plans.
