Psssst .... the Secret Service is happy also!

They get weary of cleaning up broken TVs and wine bottles.

They also don't like her trash mouth!

The fact the veil has been completely lifted off the fake and partial news media is a grand accomplishment

Yes that is a Grand accomplishment from our Liar in Chief. If I recall Nixon tried doing something similar.

There will always be a % of supporters on each side that will only believe positive news stories about their candidate of choice. Those nuts are easy to lead....it is the folks in the middle who decide what is true or not and the 2018 midterm will be the first sounding board.

Not you and JDCornhole declaring victory on a Hooker Board!

The "irony" of it all. The Liberals peeled the onion themselves.

They started the Russian Collusion Conspiracy to debunk the election returns and their buddies in the FBI are beginning to fall like the maggots they've been.

Then they started the predator accusations to vilify Trump and he's still standing (after being elected even with the accusations) and they are falling like maggots too!

Throwing slop and getting it all over themselves.

Just like in here ... with the minnow and the parrot ...

As the steadfastness of the current administration continues to build and spread, those who were afraid to speak up for fear of reprisals if the current administration were booted will come forward. The Liberals started this shit with nefarious purposes.

Their inbred arrogance has done them in. Gruber's still laughing~!

The list is bullshit and you’re a fraud JDrunk.

Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the word “signed”and “bill” rarely appear in that list. In other words, before hastily pushing the worst, most expensive tax bill in this history of our nationthrough the least effective and more reviled Congress in history, Twitler’s entire presidency had been little more than a string of personal edicts. Your grand list includes seven bills he actually signed. Out of 81 of your self-assessed greatest hits.

Not to mention straining diplomatic relationships with every nation in earth ... except, of course, Russia and the RWW Israeli regime... and creating the most divided, hate-fueled society on earth.

Great job Twitler. Very very very GREAT. He’s a fucking dictator.

But you sure know how to guzzle Twitler’s jiss, JDrunk.

When you wake up tomorrow, we’re still fucked.

Does wiki leaks show collusion between Fox News and the GOP, talk radio right wing rags?

Come on dipshits, you are crying about something you do with regularity.

Like I said, the middle will continue to decide.

The next test is in 2018 mid terms, not some dipshit chest thumping thread on a Hooker Board.

But hey beat away just like Obama supporters did in 2009! You are the same side of a two headed coin.

Obama promised better healthcare....gave us this shitty Obamacare. Trump with tax reform.....gave us this crappy transfer of wealth to the upper crust!






http://www.visualcapitalist.com/weal...lem-one-chart/
When this data is compared in 2013 dollars:

• The Lower Class: Wealth has decreased by 26.5% for the bottom 20% of incomes
• The Working Class: Wealth has decreased by 52.7% for the second lowest 20% of incomes
• The Middle Class: Wealth has decreased by 19.1% for the middle 20% of incomes

However, one segment has shot up “off” the charts:

• The Top 10%: Wealth has increased 74.9%, soaring to a median net worth of over $1.1 million.
