Numbers Don’t Lie: 
Trump’s Doing Fine

American Main Street (photo by Chris Light)

The numbers are clear: there’s a glow on Main Street 
and a soaring stock market seven months 
into the Trump administration. 



The Washington Times 
Sunday, August 6, 2017


President Trump faces nonstop criticism and a hostile news media which advances one narrative after another, building their case against him largely with anonymous sources, suggestive headlines and clever speculation. But he carries on. The result? Among other things, the economy has improved, there’s a glow on Main Street and the stock market continues to soar to record heights despite rumor mongering and unproven innuendo from the “resistance.”

Numbers, however, tend to speak louder to Americans than innuendo. The U.S. Department of Labor’s July 2017 report, for example, found that 209,000 new jobs were created during the month, besting expectations by a robust 26,000 jobs.

“More people are getting back to work and finding jobs, and more people are employed now than at any time over the past six years,” says Jesse Hathaway, a research fellow for budget and tax policy at the Heartland Institute, a Chicago-based nonprofit and free-market think tank.

“If the economic recovery from years of malaise is to continue, Congress needs to buckle down and work with President Trump to enact the bold tax reforms Washington, D.C. promised the American people in 2016. Lawmakers need to put aside the day-to-day distractions and bickering, and work together for the common good,” says Mr. Hathaway.

“These new employment numbers show that Trump’s economic program is already working for all Americans, and especially his blue-collar base. Too bad that is not understood by The Washington Post, The New York Times, CNN, and the Democrats — who the voters can get out of the way next year, turning Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer into the Senate’s Very Minority Leader,” quips Peter Ferrara, a senior research fellow at the organization.

“The American people are working hard, and it’s time for our elected officials in Washington, D.C. to do the same,” advises Russ McCullough, an associated professor of economics at Ottawa University. “The new jobs report and bullish stock market are clear signs that both big and small business have been over regulated and overtaxed for too long. Regardless of negative perceptions of President Trump’s tweets, positive profit expectations trump all other concerns.”


PROMISING HEADLINES

A new Media Research Center analysis already reveals that major broadcasters have literally censored the good news about the stock market, dwelling instead on the Russia collusion matter and rumors of discord at the White House. But not every news organization is stuck in Trump-bashing mode.

Economic developments can’t be ignored forever, and they are beginning to emerge. A small sampling of headlines from the past week reveal much:

“U.S. companies post profit growth not seen in six years,” The Wall Street Journal, July 30.

“Consumer confidence strengthens in July, beating expectations for a drop,” CNBC, July 25.

“Milestone For Trump: 1 million new jobs in six months,” CNN, Aug. 4.


JOB OPTIMISM PEAKS

Wait, there’s more. A new Rasmussen Reports survey reveals that 63 percent of Americans believe it’s possible for anyone who really wants to work to find a job in this country.

That’s up from the previous high of 61 percent in October 2014 and is the highest level of optimism in more than eight years. Only a quarter disagreed with the idea that jobs could be had for those who want them, the poll found.


He's fighting on OUR side –– and WINNING!



A FINE WHINE

Cranky, critical, tiresome, snippy? No, try whiny. That is Howard Dean’s preferred adjective for a certain segment of the Democratic Party. 

“There has always been a section of the left, which I call the whiny party, the party that doesn’t really want to win. They just want to be pure — and if they go down swinging purely, then that’s fine,” the former Democratic National Committee chairman told MSNBC on Sunday.

“The problem with that is it leaves behind the people who really need their help,” Mr. Dean continued, with some critical appraisal of those who exhibit the whiny factor.

“We all have to pull together. And people who sit out — or crank on some candidate because they did this or that, or weren’t up to the purity test — are basically turning their backs on the very people they pretend to represent. So I don’t have a lot of patience with this wing of the progressive party."


SCREEN TEST: CLEAN IT UP

A lot of Americans are tired of hearing the f-bomb and other oaths uttered in feature films. The producers of such fare, in fact, risk losing audiences over it. So says a new Harris Poll, which has caught the attention of the industry itself.

“Using ‘Jesus Christ‘ to swear is the biggest offense, with 33 percent of the general public saying they’d be less likely to see a movie if they knew beforehand of that particular piece of dialogue. ‘Goddam’ was second at 32 percent and ‘f–’ was third with 31 percent,” writes Hollywood Reporter correspondent Paul Bond.

“Republicans are turned off by swearing more so than Democrats, and it’s not even close. ‘F–,’ for example, will repel 45 percent of Republican moviegoers and only 25 percent of Democrats,” he notes. “The survey found that evangelical Christians have the biggest problem with swearing, with 90 percent saying they might avoid a film using ‘Jesus Christ’ to swear.”

POLL DU JOUR

42 percent of Americans have a favorable opinion of Sen. John McCain, Arizona Republican; 36 percent of Republicans, 37 percent of independents and 55 percent of Democrats agree.
28 percent overall have a favorable impression of Sen. Susan Collins, Maine Republican; 15 percent of Republicans, 24 percent of independents and 47 percent of Democrats agree.

26 percent overall have a favorable opinion of Sen. Lisa Murkowski, Alaska Republican; 13 percent of Republicans, 23 percent of independents and 41 percent of Democrats agree.

24 percent of Americans have a favorable opinion of Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Republican; 26 percent of Republicans, 19 percent of independents and 20 percent of Democrats agree.

    I have put so many of these people on my ignore list that it isn’t funny. Not because they disagree with my views, but because they can’t disagree with what I say without using the most vile, disgusting language imaginable . Ever notice how they don't or they always qualify their statements by changing the subject? I have never even seen, or heard these people criticize North Korea, or Fidel Castro, or Iran! Ever hear them criticize Pol Pot, the Brutal Dictato rof Cambodia, or Mao? Neither have I,.Oh, but George Bush, or Donald Trump, or Thomas Jefferson the president who owned slaves, they even want his name and his statues taken down from where ever it may be. or any perceived white American conservative republican, like, and especially Ronald Reagan!
    But MASS MURDERING Commie Dictators, like Saddam Hussain are totally Ignored! No criticism. Nothing derogatory. Nothing insulting. Nothing bad at all. Don’t you wonder why?
    But they just love the leadership of Barrack Hussain Obama. . The man did more damage to the United States in the past 8 years than any foreigner ever did. .Isn't that peculiar?
    Take Maxine Waters for example, she has already gone on record saying that she is just fine with the leaking of presidential conversations with Foreign governments, or the leaking of any Confidential information even to the harm of our nation. Governments will no longer feel free to talk openly with the President about international matters as he USA cannot keep a secret. These leakers must soon be found out and stopped, prosecuted for violating their oath to the United States. These people are no less than enemies of the state and should be SHOT. Apparently, Maxine Waters is trying to start a Civil War
    The left needs to shut Maxine Waters up....she is no longer keeping up the oath that she took when she was elected. ......
    This is the coup, the “Resistance” that Hillary and Obama started and it MUST end!
    And the anti Trumpers...who believe that allowing the left to remove Trump would end all of our problems.....you are morons, idiots really.......Maxine Waters and the rest of you are ENEMIES of this Nation, .they will go after Pence too.....and you can bet any other Trump appointees .
    You can bet your last dollar that if for some reason (and I KNOW that will NEVER happen) but if Trump is somehow removed and Pence put in,
    they will try to tie Pence in with Trump as co-conspirators working with Russia to steal an election, and then try to have Pence removed! And that’s why I’m throughly convinced that the lefties would rather have see the American people suffer with a crooked president like Hillary Clinton than have a President of the opposing party elected!
    I really feel that the Democrats are convinced that if they can get rid of Trump and Pence, they can bring Obama back and make him our first King!
    But NEITHER Trump or Pence is going to be impeached, you can take that to the bank!
    So, give it a rest with all that negative , FAKE, bullshit, and your fraudulent charges. You fake charges, marches, rioting, lies, fake news, rumors and violence. Your “resistance” is a coup that is NOT going to work.

      Hi, Sam,

      I'm reposting your lengthy remarks, because I agree with most of what you said, but would advise you in future please to double-space between paragraphs as I just did for you (below).

      But MASS MURDERING Commie Dictators, like Saddam Hussain are totally Ignored! No criticism. Nothing derogatory. Nothing insulting. Nothing bad at all. Don’t you wonder why?

[Maxine Waters is despicable –– an ABOMINATION, –– a disgrace to the democratic process ––, and a dangerous lunatic. If anyone deserves to be impeached, surely it is she.]

      Governments will no longer feel free to talk openly with the President about international matters as the USA cannot keep a secret. These leakers must soon be found out and stopped, prosecuted for violating their oath to the United States. These people are no less than enemies of the state and should be SHOT. [I agree they must be stopped, but I think killing them would be too extreme. I WOULD, however, be glad to see them stripped of their citizenship, and be deprived of the rights suppsedly guaranteed to ALL American citizens. Subersive activity, and certainly high TREASON deserve draconian punishment, but not DEATH.]

      Apparently, Maxine Waters is trying to start a Civil War.
      The left needs to shut Maxine Waters up....she is no longer keeping up the oath that she took when she was elected. ......

[I rather debt that it would go quite that far, except, perhaps in the minds of a few Black Liberation extremists like Malik "Zulu" Shabazz, who ought to be deprived of his liberty and put in solitary cinfunement for the rest of his miserable existence.]


      But NEITHER Trump or Pence is going to be impeached, you can take that to the bank! [It does look that way. They are DRUNK with the kind of bloodlust that defines a typical LYNCH MOB MENTALITY.]

      So, give it a rest with all that negative, FAKE, ["information"], and your fraudulent charges. Your fake charges, marches, rioting, lies, fake news, rumors and violence. Your “resistance” is a coup that is NOT going to work. [I hope you are right, Sam. but after "WATERGATE" I have come to undertand that anything bad really CAN happen here. We live in real danger of losing the republic our brilliant Founders crafted for us.]

    All that sounds very encouraging, but I HAVE to ask: Can we trust THESE statistics any MORE than we trusted those generated dring the Obama Regime?

    Mark Twain's immortal phrase "Lies, God-Damned Lies and STATISTICS!" keeps echoning in my brain every time I read any of these 'Official Reports" from ANY arm of government.

    I DO NOT TRUST GOVERNMENT NO MATTER WHO IS AT THE HELM. PERIOD!

    I take that advice straight from Mr. Jefferson, himself, who said:

    "It would be a dangerous delusion were a confidence in the men of our choice to silence our fears for the safety of our rights: that confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism – free government is founded on jealousy, and not in confidence which prescribes limited constitutions . . . In questions of power then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him from mischief by the chains of the Constitution."

    "In every government on earth is some trace of human weakness, some germ of corruption and degeneracy, which cunning will cultivate, and improve. Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories. And to render even them safe their minds must be improved to a certain degree."


    ~ Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)

    I do feel Mr.Jefferson's last sentence too mild, when he said "[the] minds [of the general population] must be improved "somewhat."

    I don't believe even Mr. Jefferson could foresee the degree of havoc decades of degenerate Cultural Marxist propaganda zealousy disseminated through mass media by fiendish manipulators of Public Opinion could wreak.

      The antics we've been seeing ever since Mr. Trump "threw his hat into the [proverbial] ring" are those of wounded rats clinging desperately to life at any price. So selfish and stupid are they they'd rather bring the whole country down than cede one iota of their ill-gotten power and privilege voluntarily.

      Altruism has been virtually unknown in America politics ever since it stopped being an amateur organization of concerned citizens and instead became a Big Business staffed by greedy, venal opportunists.

  5. Anything the Right does is questioned, studied, fact Checked, torn apart, and then eventually considered as a lie by the Leftist media while justifying or totally ignoring what the Left does. This has been going on since the Nixon days when Nixon was forced to step down because of Watergate. Lets face it and come to reality that Watergate was a simple break-in! No money was lost, no lives were lost, and NO national security was compromised . Simply politics. Nothing has changed, has it?

    I think there comes a time in a person’s life that they realize and get angry that they’ve been lied to so much from a Unaided States Secretary of State, that either has a mental disease or some other form of mental dysfunction such as sociopath, that they put their foot down and turns to the opposing party!
    And why would anyone expect the truth from a left leaning media. The leftist leaders are admitted liars Obama, Hillary Reid, Maxine Waters, Loretta Lynch, and that bunch? Maxine Waters, is proof that aliens from Mars actually live amongst us
    These days a honest liberal with integrity just doesn’t exist!
    Tokays Lefties have done such a bang-up job of destroying the old word “liberal” that their now describing themselves as Progressives!

    What get me and makes me mad is when they call us Republicans. Racists. Homophobia, Liars, Extremists, etc. Not realizing that this has only happened since Obama came into office. But they refuse to acknowledge that

    Too many of our so-called elected public servants view themselves as special and, therefore, exempt from the American work ethic.

    They enact neither healthcare reform nor tax reform, yet they leave D.C. and go on their August vacation.

    BTW, I agree that the stock market ride is soaring because of "the Trump effect." But if the weasles in this Congress don't enact tax reform, the numbers will drop. My opinion, anyway -- and the opinion of my adult piano student, who is very shrewd with regard to economics.

    1. Of course the current boom in the market will eventually reverse itself. We are due for a mammoth "correction." That does not mean, however, that the sky will have fallen when it happens.

      Canny investors are aware of the mercurial nature of the stock market, and factor in the possibility of periodic failure in their calculations.

  8. For a prosecutor to do his job, doesn’t there have to be a crime committed ? So what crime is special prosecutor Robert Mueller supposed to be prosecuting .
    Exactly WHAT CRIME WAS COMMITTED OR SUPPOSEDLY COMMITTED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP IN REGARD TO RUSSIA?
    As of yet, No one has been able to explain what crime was committed involving Trump and Russia.
    Even Donald Trump Jr.’s conversation with any Russians does not meet the standard of evidence of any sort of criminality in the US court system.
    In fact the Obama administration and Obama himself should be under investigation as a result of the Trump' Tower’s wiretap.

    It is important to understand that Comey was stringing along the Hillary investigation to keep the phony, political witch hunt alive.. So Comey was removed, the Phony, political allegations died on the vine. They had nothing else to go on to continue the Phoney Witch Hunt, only they were too stupid to know it and thus came Mueller. Much like the search for Big Foot.
    The real investigation should be for the leaks that came form Possibly Comey,former CIA Director John Brennan Susan Rice, and Ben Rhodes., and the Swamp will be drained! And I’d even add Clapper to that list.
    And while we’re on the subject of investigations what about Hillary and Huma's crimes? But have a feeling that Jeff Sessions will be getting around to them.
    But getting back to the Mueller / Trump Investigation...There is no evidence of ANY actual tampering of any election results by the Russians or anyone else. That would be a crime. There is evidence that the Russian Intelligence agencies were trying to gather data and influence the US election. Either.
    The closest you get to a crime is if Russians actually recruited Flynn or others as undercover spies. That would be a crime, though let's face it, this is also something all nations do, including the US., didn’t we bug Angela Merkel's phone and got caught! . That doesn't mean you don't arrest the spies if you catch them, even if they work for allies ,like Israeli spies caught by the US a few times - Remember Pollard? I think that he’s still in jail.
    Maybe the Russians thought they could buy a mole. Or maybe the media has been watching too much TV.
    Because no crime was committed, like it or not. Next lie!

    Nobody Marched, Rioted, Protested or anything of the sort when Barack Hussain Obama and his stupid, and inept commie advisers wrecked the entire US economy in order to produce a Socialist change in the USA . And world domination
    Obama never really liked America the way it has been since its founding - and to realize his dreams of converting America into something quite different, he’s first dirty deed was to wreck the entire American economy

    Yes, first, the economy has to be wrecked, and in order to accomplish that he had to destroy trillions in wealth since the election. Those who had saved something for the future now saw it melting away. The clown aka Barach Hussain Obama had to close the gap between the "haves" and "have nots" rapidly. Remember the stories by the drive-byes about the large gap between rich and poor during Pres. Bush's term?
    This was all a very real nightmare...leading to a very real catastrophe in the U.S. Who can stop this man and his Congressional allies? Why can't the majority of people wake up to the reality of the Obama Nation?
    I keep thinking that today was the day when the public would wake up and realize that he's a liar and rebel...and the days passes and the majority still support him., but the major damage had been done. He used the powers of the government and the media to silence his public and private critics and keep the people in line and they're willingly allowing it. It's just impossible for me to understand this mentality. Because Obama has a way of convincing the people that he had the Hope to Change America into a Socialist society, and the people bought it.
    Obama lied; and the economy died. Obviously, I am borrowing this from the Democratic Party theme of 2003-08: "Bush lied, and people died."

    1. I am no fan of President Obama, but I think you eaggerate his defects too mightily.

      Obama is a Cultural Marxist. His identity as America's First Negro President has protected him from critical analysis which his supporters invariably characterize as "racism"–– a charge along with that of "anti-Semitism" that –– thanks to the machinations of MARXISTS–– in the ENEMEDIA and the PROFESSORIAT has come to be regarded as worse than Murder, Rape, Kidinapping, Theft, Arson and Child Molestation combined.

      My opposition –– and that of most Conservatuve-Libertarians –– to President Obama is based on his identity as a MARXIST NOT on his identity as a MULATTO.

    To all the whiners on the left, and to the crybabies in the LGBT community, let me throw

    some reality into your bowl of fruity pebbles...




    Nobody has a "right" to serve in the Military. Nobody!!




    What makes you people think the Military is an equal opportunity employer? Very far from it.




    The Military uses prejudice regularly and consistently to deny citizens from joining for a variety of reasons, like being too old or too young, too fat or too skinny, too tall or too short.

    Citizens are denied for having flat feet, or for missing fingers or toes, poor eyesight will disqualify you, poor hearing, undernourished, Drug addiction, metal implants, Criminal history, Anxiety, Phobias, Hearing voices in your head, Self-identify as a Unicorn,

    handicapped in anyway, Can't run the required distance in the required time, Can't do the

    required number of pushups or sit-ups, have an eating disorder, or any kind of mental disorder,

    have a below average IQ, can't read or comprehend English, can't problem solve or make quick

    decisive decisions.




    Are you not really a "morning person" and refuse to get out of bed before noon? You're out!

    You have a penis but want to use the women's restroom? You're out!

    Don't like the camouflage uniforms because you'd rather wear pink? You're out!

    The Military has one job... Prepare for War against anybody who threatens the safety and

    sovereignty of our nation! Anything else is a distraction and a liability.




    Did someone just scream "That isn't Fair"? War is VERY unfair. There are no exceptions made for being special or challenged or socially wonderful or different.

    YOU change yourself to meet Military standards. Not the other way around.




    I say again: You don't change the Military standards... you must change yourself.

    The Military doesn't need to accomodate anyone with special needs or emotional and

    mental issues. The Military needs to Win Wars.




    If any of your personal issues are a liability that detract from readiness or lethality...

    Then Thank you for applying and good luck in your future endeavors. Who's next in line?

      Trump is a fascist, a racist, a serial liar, a cheat, a crook, a bully, and a chronic abuser of women. He even wants to have sex with his daughter, Ivanka. She has probably gone along with it all her life. That wuss of a husband of hers sits and watches. That's the only way he can get off. God knows what Trump has done to Tiffany to keep her silent aout his raping her repeatedly since she was five years old. You are a nothing but a vicious anti-semite and Nazi propagandist and an enemy of the American people..People like you ought to be horsewhipped, then shot dead by a firing squad made up of a dozen deeply offended blacks, latinos and transgenders.

      Anon: You have no way of knowing that. Even if that statement did issue from the halitosis-plagued mouth of an RNC official--which is quite plausible--it is nonetheless indistinguishable from unhinged rants routinely unleashed by the rabid left.

  14. It’s no secret that President Trump has faced more criticism, more fake news stories, more hostile attacks from the leftist media, the Hollywood crowd, the Late Night TV Shows, the Pussy- Hatters, and the Rioters that have been going on one after another, day by day and mostly by anonymous sources, and headlines with speculation rather than facts. . But there are a few facts, and accomplishments that they just can not change, such as the FACT that the economy has not only improved, but exploded! The stock market continues to hit new records almost on a daily basis despite all the fear mongering from Obama’s and Hillary’s “Resistance.”


    Numbers, speak louder than news headlines. The, for example, there have been 209,000 new jobs created last month, beating all expectations!


    More Americans have been getting back to work and finding jobs, and more Americans are employed now than at any time in the Obama administration.

    These numbers show that Trump’s economic program has been working for all Americans! . It’s a shame that the, New York Times, CNN, and the Liberals who have been bitching and moaning having been reading the REAL news.

    Yes it’s really a shame that the lefties aren’t reading the latest new , or they may have found that the Eric Bolling Accuser is really just a lying Anti-Trump Professor who just happens to be the same person that accused Bill O’Reilly, and who has been making FALSE Claims for decades, claims that cannot be proved, Claims that have No Proof or Evidence ! And isn’t it funny that all of these “Claims” happen the be against people who work for Fox News!!!


    Stop your insane barfing about your Fake conspiracy theories it's getting old, and boring.. We are getting BORED from your stupid unsubstantiated, “Claims” that come from t from ignorance, and not from facts!

    Facts, like Hillary Clinton's "giving Russia 20% of US uranium!

    1. "The Real Dave Miller" is so right! Because of how the media paints the picture no one thinks about the positive aspects of Nixon’s terms in office. No one had spoken to China in decades before he opened the way and his other accomplishments. Here we have a new President just starting out who has not actually done anything wrong yet but they are on him so thick it is a wonder the guy can breath. The work Reagan accomplished in his first term in office brought higher employment numbers by his second term and we have people demanding results now before his cabinet is in place, ”give me a break”! He as well as both houses of Congress and all the people who will be creating these new jobs are only human, fixing the health care debacle and our other problems will take time! Media outlets demanding results now like children asking ”Are we there yet?” are not helpful in anyway.

      I can’t imagine them growing up in four years either but maybe with some prayer? Time has not helped them yet so prayer is our only answer.

    Here's your 3 million+ Popular vote margin that Hillary won..
    Judicial Watch announced it sent a notice-of-violation letter to the state of California and 11 of its counties threatening to sue in federal court if it does not clean its voter registration lists as mandated by the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA). Both the NVRA and the federal Help America Vote Act require states to take reasonable steps to maintain accurate voting rolls. The August 1 letter was sent on behalf of several Judicial Watch California supporters and the Election Integrity Project California, Inc.

    In the letter, Judicial Watch noted that public records obtained on the Election Assistance Commission’s 2016 Election Administration Voting Survey and through verbal accounts from various county agencies show 11 California counties have more registered voters than voting-age citizens: Imperial (102%), Lassen (102%), Los Angeles (112%), Monterey (104%), San Diego (138%), San Francisco (114%), San Mateo (111%), Santa Cruz (109%), Solano (111%), Stanislaus (102%), and Yolo (110%).

    In the letter, Judicial Watch noted that Los Angeles County officials “informed us that the total number of registered voters now stands at a number that is a whopping 144% of the total number of resident citizens of voting age.”

    87 ballots delivered to ONE ADDRESS all with different names but same address

  18. Former Obama White House Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes is now emerging as a person of interest in the House Intelligence Committee’s unmasking investigation, according to a letter sent Tuesday by the committee to the National Security Agency (NSA). This adds Rhodes to the growing list of top Obama government officials who may have improperly unmasked Americans in communications intercepted overseas by the NSA, Circa has confirmed.
    And coincidentally the liberals have lost all their interest in Russia! Isn’t that weird ?

  19. New York’s SOCIALIST Mayor Bill De Blasio Proposes Tax on Wealthy to Fix New York City’s Crumbling Subways

    My Question Is : Why penalize people for being Wealthy if they haven't committed any crime?

    I recommend that the rich in New York, move out of New York and take their businesses with them, thus forcing the Mayor to stick it where the Sun don't shine!!

  20. Anything the Right does is questioned, studied, fact Checked, torn apart, and then eventually considered as a lie by the Leftist media while justifying or totally ignoring what the Left does. This has been going on since the Nixon days when Nixon was forced to step down because of Watergate. Lets face it and come to reality that Watergate was a simple break-in! No money was lost, no lives were lost, and NO national security was compromised . Simply politics. Nothing has changed, has it?

    I think there comes a time in a person’s life that they realize and get angry that they’ve been lied to so much from a Unaided States Secretary of State, that either has a mental disease or some other form of mental dysfunction such as sociopath, that they put their foot down and turns to the opposing party!
    And why would anyone expect the truth from a left leaning media. The leftist leaders are admitted liars Obama, Hillary Reid, Maxine Waters, Loretta Lynch, and that bunch? Maxine Waters, is proof that aliens from Mars actually live amongst us
    These days a honest liberal with integrity just doesn’t exist!
    Tokays Lefties have done such a bang-up job of destroying the old word “liberal” that their now describing themselves as Progressives!

    What get me and makes me mad is when they call us Republicans. Racists. Homophobia, Liars, Extremists, etc. Not realizing that this has only happened since Obama came into office. But they refuse to acknowledge that.

  21. WYD and affiliate weblog FreeThinke are both purveyors of the false narrative of Trump and the extreme religious right. That doesn't even scrath the surface.

    WYD and the sister far right rabid bloggers: They are the kind of people who believe what they want to believe.

    Trump says his base is stronger than ever while he's losing support except from old white uneducated people they'll stiay with him like fleas on a sewer rat. Almost 70% Americans reject the bullshitting jerk.

    President Trump is under their skin and in their heads 24/7/365

    Tee hee hee! It's a guilty pleasure, but I laugh till I tinkle myself watching the leftwing nutballs scream and tear their hair out because they cannot accept the reality that Donald J. Trump, a true American who loves the working people, is their President.

  24. DJT approval rating is in the low 30's while congress is in the low 10's. Guess no one really supports our elected elite. It is difficult for the left to accept a president who leads from the front.
    It is times like these that we really need a president who leads from behind, apologize for America's strengths and draws lines in the sand waiting for the Russian president to pull his ass out of the fire. Oh the good old days when we had a president who would rather give away billions to support a feel good accord and not spend a dime to increase our missile defense system. After all we are one world and should be ashamed to be a christian nation who believes we are the best.

    1. Thank you. Skud. After eight years of living in financial doldrums with a crypto-Marxist president who led FROM his Behind, while celebrating Negritude at the expense of our Caucasian majority whom he openly despised, it really IS a relief to have an audacious, pugnacious, utterly fearless MAN in the White House promoting a vigorous pro-America agenda.

      The worth of a man is best defined by the enemies he keeps, and Trump's enemies absolutely STINK to HIGH HEAVEN.

      Make no mstake about it. Trump's enemies are AMERICA'S enemies.
