Trump Since The Election-What We Have Learned (Not Good)

[TheProgressivePatriot]

On the eve of the election, I was, like many others, aghast and dismayed at the election of Donald Trump. I could not fathom the election of this many who had railed against pretty much every minority group, and threatened to ignite a trade war in a misguided attempt to bring jobs back to our shores. He is a person who has a history of being a sexual predator, ...s

1. And yet you supported a candidate who had railed against the MAJORITY GROUP, and supports racist policies against US.

2. Wanting to change trade policies that result in record trade deficits nearly every year, is not misguided. Better trade policies can bring back jobs.

3. Sexual predator? ONly if you don't know the meaning of the word "let".

Can you actually explain and document any of the bizarre bovine excrement or are we to take your inane Palenesk word salad with shit dressing at face value?

Sure. Better than you did with your little rant.

Hillary and the dems ridiculed whites, the MAJORITY GROUP, the majority of which voted for Trump, as Deplorable, they and their partisans constantly ridicule the very idea that their interests can or should be advanced, they support laws and legal theory that requires anti-white discrimination (see new haven firefighters).

You can take that Race Card, along with the other cards and shove them.

Disparate Impact Theory, requires anti-white discrimination. Which ALL dem appointed Justices support.
See the New Haven Firefighters ruling.

You're not making sense. Yes the city tried to screw the white guys by throwing out the test, but SCOTUS said that they were wrong to do so. In addition, the motive to void the result was not racism against whites but fear of a suit by the blacks.

Maybe now you would like to comment on the deplorable jackasses that are making up the Trump admin?

1. All the dem appointed Justices supported the discrimination. Thankfully they were outvoted by the republicans.

2. And yes. the motive for the discrimination was fear of lawsuits because of Disparate Impact Theory.

3. None of Trump's administration supports using the law to require discrimination like you dems do. Save your deplorable nonsense for someone who pretends to believe it.

On the eve of the election, I was, like many others, aghast and dismayed at the election of Donald Trump. I could not fathom the election of this many who had railed against pretty much every minority group, and threatened to ignite a trade war in a misguided attempt to bring jobs back to our shores. He is a person who has a history of being a sexual predator, who’s temperament and knowledge base clearly disqualifies him from the presidency and who does not exude the intellectual depth or level of curiosity to learn and grow into the job .

However, after taking a deep breath and listening to Secretary Clinton’s gracious concession speech and President Obamas call for acceptance of the decision and national unity and healing, I decided to take a step back and say that, rather dwell on his past words and deeds, I would judge him by what he says and does going forward. I said that I would chalk much of it up to campaign rhetoric and bluster intended to rally his base, and reminded myself that he has a history of holding some liberal and progressive views that may reemerge later.

That rapprochement lasted less than a week. In his first few days as president elect, he has done the following:

He has Appointed a climate change denier, Myron Ebell, to head the EPA transition team:
Trump names proud climate-science denier to head EPA transition team
Subsequently, he nominated another climate change denier Scot Pruitt to head the EPA
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/07/us/politics/scott-pruitt-epa-trump.html? hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=first-column-region&region=top-news&WT.nav=top-news

Now, the transition team has launched a Witch hunt within the EPA to ferret out those who have been working for Obama on climate change.

He has continued to disparage the press and has not allowed them to accompany him on his plane- defying precedent :

Why A Free Press Really, Really Matters | The Huffington Post
And, by far the worst move……….

He has Appointed a white nationalist as his chief strategist and political advisor to the administration: Democrats Decry Bannon Pick: No Place In The White House For A 'White Nationalist' | The Huffington Post

“

Democrats raised alarms Monday over the naming of Steve Bannon, executive chairman at Breitbart News, as President-elect Donald Trump’s chief strategist and senior counselor.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) called the pick an “alarming signal” that Trump “remains committed to the hateful and divisive vision that defined his campaign.”

Bannon, known for his white nationalist views, took a break from running Brietbart ― which has published headlines like “Racist, Pro-Nazi Roots Of Planned Parenthood Revealed” ― to help run Trump’s campaign. Trump announced Bannon’s new position on Sunday.”

As a side note, one has to wonder how this will set with his son in law and influential advisor, and who is also an Orthodox Jew.? How will they get along? Very strange indeed.

Little wonder then that he has selected Jeff Sessons -an avowed racist to head the justice department- the same Justice Department that is charged with civil rights laws

Trump Picks Jeff Sessions, Senator Accused Of Racism, For Attorney General | The Huffington Post

Now, he is proposing the Rex W. Tillerson, the chief executive of Exxon Mobil, who has no government or diplomatic experience save for the fact that he is a buddy of Putin. Tillerson has criticized US sanctions against Russia for human rights violations and their aggressiveness, in the region. How will that play out? Rex W. Tillerson, the chief executive of Exxon Mobil, whose extensive deal-making for the energy giant has plunged him into global politics from Yemen to Russia,

And who would he like to be second in command at State? The hawkish and controversial John Bolton to be Secretary of State, a nomination that flies in the face of this position that he has taken on wanting to improve relations with Russia:

Donald Trump Leaning Toward Extreme Militant John Bolton As Secretary Of State | The Huffington Post

Then we have Betsy DeVos, Trump’s Education Pick, Has Steered Money From Public Schools
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/23/u...ackage-region&region=top-news&WT.nav=top-news

Yes, an enemy of public education, leading the department of education!

Moving right along, it appears that Trump will tap none other than the man who wanted to eliminate the Department of Energy, Rick Perry, to lead……the Department of Energy. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michelang ... 96552.html

Are we beginning to see a pattern here? I would call it the systematic destruction of government from within.

In keeping with that theme, he has named Mike Pompeo to head the CIA, Donald Trump Taps Tea Party Rep. Mike Pompeo To Run The CIA | The Huffington Post

While Pompeo-in contrast to many other appointees, - is well credentialed with a background in intelligence and a graduate of West Point, as a congressman is a member of the Tea Party Caucus.
Then there are the generals.: How unusual is Trump's Cabinet of generals? - CBS News

Remember when Trump said that he would fire all of the generals because they were doing a terrible job?
Well now we will have James Mattis as Defense Secretary, Michael Flynn as National Security Advisor, and John Kelly as Homeland Security Secretary.

I wonder if he’ll listen to them now- or continue to believe that he knows more than them.


That brings us to Goldman Sacks. Yes the Goldman Sacks that he railed against during the campaign and then suggested that Clinton was unqualified to be President because she gave a speech to them. Now, he has selected not one but two from their ranks to fill key posts: Trump to pick Goldman's Gary Cohn for National Economic Council director - Business Insider

Gary Cohn, the President and COO of the firm is slated to head the National Economic Council. And for Treasury Secretary, he has picked Steven Mnuchin- a former banker with the company who ran their foreclosure juggernaut .

So much for draining the swamp of special interests!!

Oooops…conflicting information: U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has offered the job of interior secretary to first-term Republican Representative Ryan Zinke of Montana, Politico reported on Tuesday, citing two transition officials and someone familiar with the offer.

Zinke, a former Navy Seal commander, has yet to accept and has given no indication as to which way he is leaning, Politico said.

Earlier on Tuesday, Politico reported that Trump was considering Zinke along with fellow U.S. Representatives Raul Labrador of Idaho and Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington to lead the Interior Department.

Tom Price – a Republican Congressman and avowed enemy of Obamacare has been selected to head the Health department http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/28/us/politics/tom-price-secretary-health-and-human-services.html

In debate on the Affordable Care Act in 2009, Mr. Price railed against “a stifling and oppressive federal government,” a theme that pervades his politics. His most frequent objection to the law is that it interferes with the ability of patients and doctors to make medical decisions

There is no such thing as a climate change denier.
That presupposes a fact. And to date, no one has been able to prove that human activity can alter the earth's climate cycles.
Global warming/ climate change is nothing but a fantasy created by ALGore and the UN as a means to control business activity across the globe and tax it.
String a couple of hot days together in Minnesota and suddenly we see commercials with Hollywood types imploring citizens to stop basically living and asking the government to enact new crushing regulations that would inevitably crush our economy.
As for the rest of your long winded prattling post, here is my response. TOUGH SHIT...
Your side doesn't get to call the shots. You no longer control the conversation. You don't get to make policy.
Did you lefties really think this election was about Donald Trump?
Are you really so dense that you did not see the country was "up to here" with far left wing policy and the tear down of this nation?....
Obama ran his first campaign on Hope and Change. A slogan he quickly abandoned and never used as a plank in his policy platform. It was just words.
We did end up with division and despair.

It's Hard To Overstate How Anti-Environment Donald Trump's Cabinet Picks Are | The Huffington Post

WASHINGTON ― Rex Tillerson at the State Department. Scott Pruitt at the Environmental Protection Agency. Rick Perry at the Department of Energy. Jeff Sessions at the Department of Justice.

If environmentalists found themselves in some kind of paralyzing hypnagogia on Nov. 9, the day they realized that there was no waking up from this*was Dec. 13.

Tillerson is the CEO of Exxon Mobil, a company that spent decades and millions of dollars supporting climate change denial and is currently under investigation*for doing so.*Tillerson has personally argued that climate change is no biggie*because “we will adapt to this.” If he’s confirmed as secretary of state, he will be in the position of deciding whether the U.S. stays involved in the Paris climate agreement and whether to approve massive international oil pipelines like Keystone XL.

In addition:

Ryan Zinke, 55, described by The Washington Post as “a lifelong hunter and fisherman,” has consistently voted against environmentalists, is Trumps choice for the Interior Department

He has a paltry 3 percent on the League of Conservation Voters’ scorecard. The Center for American Progress listed Zinke on its “anti-parks caucus,” a collection of lawmakers the group says jeopardize the future of nature preserves. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/ryan-zinke-interior-secretary_us_585076f9e4b0ee009eb43e50

Oh..I see the writings of a handwringing member of the Sierra Club or some other radical enviro wacko club.
You persist in using "denial" " denier" and other terms to that effect. Looks like you've been a good little liberal soldier, following orders

Theres always Cuba and Venezuela for progressive lifestyles......

Well at least Cuba recognizes healthcare is a human right and not a luxury.

61st in the world in life expectancy.
37th in access to medical care.
Go figure......How it is that Cuba, your communist dream land, can rank in the top 1/7th of all nations in access to medical care and only rank in the top third in life expectancy?
This is useless pap..NObody cares. Now that you libs have been ousted from control, making the US this big shit hole you claim it to be, why is it that Hopey Changey didn't zoom our ranking to the top of the list? After all, Obamacare was supposed to solve all of that.

Is it? Do you believe you have a "right" to unlimited medical resources absent of any financial responsibility?.
If so, who gets to pay for that?
If you say, "the government" consider yourself back handed in the rear of your head for saying something incredibly stupid

Or run screaming with hair ablaze to the border with Canada?
In fact not a single one of those Hollywood toads who threatened us with their faux rage " if you vote for Trump, I swear I will leave the country" has left.
Probably because they heard the crescendo of "Good. Go!. Who the fuck cares!" they stayed.
Even that ultra left wing fat tatted up cow Lena Dunham has reneged on her promise to help re-tilt the US back to balance and move her Iowa sized thighs to Canada.
She says she will stay and fight...

American Bridge Statement on Trump Capitulating to Vladimir Putin
12/13/2016
American Bridge President Jessica Mackler issued the following statement on Trump’s nomination of multimillionaire Vladimir Putin ally and ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson to be his Secretary of State:

“As he shrugs off CIA reports that Russia tried to influence the election, Donald Trump is adding a Big Oil multimillionaire who’s buddies with Vladimir Putin to his cabinet of Wall Street executives.

“Rex Tillerson’s boosters include the Kremlin, Republicans who are paid consultants for Exxon, and even conspiracy theorist Alex Jones; those are the types of people Trump wants to impress. Tillerson’s critics: Republicans like Lindsey Graham, John McCain, and Marco Rubio. Even they admit that Tillerson can’t be trusted.

“As president, Trump plans to sell out to the highest bidder, whether American or foreign. That’s why he’s surrounding himself with special interest shills who bring conflicts of interest and Russia ties to rival his own.”

In debate on the Affordable Care Act in 2009, Mr. Price railed against “a stifling and oppressive federal government,” a theme that pervades his politics. His most frequent objection to the law is that it interferes with the ability of patients and doctors to make medical decisions

Thanks for posting all the reasons I love Trump.
