The Republicans did the exact same thing with Obama
McConnell said he would do everything in his power to make Obama a one term president.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...=.18516965c9ce
The ultimate impedement, and obstruction was when the Senate refused to even hold a vote to confirm Merrick.
A president has a 4 year term. Not a 3 year term.
A third of all supreme court justice nominees have been filled in the last year of a president's term in office and 6 were confirmed AFTER the election of the next president but before the current term had ended.
Please confirm these numbers with another source if you would like as I'm sure there are those who think WaPo is all fake news. Numbers are numbers. Hard to fake verifiable facts.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.751333644b02
It's kind of like Batman & the Joker,
"YOU MADE ME!"
"You made me, first."
It's part for the course....
Trump shouldn't whine about it

He's not good at business? You're not good at business and Trump has his name on more things than Mark Cuban does. Trump became President and you and too many other immature cry babies don't like it. Well 2020 will be just a repeat of 2016. The Democrats and their negativity is going to get pounded one more time. Wear a helmet.

It says those companies were in poor financial health and couldn't geberate enough revenue to remain a going concern.
Let's say that each time it was for reasons beyond Trump's control.
That just means he was so ingorant that not once, but six different times he allowed himself to be duped into investing in bad business models.
If they were good business models, then he was just too fucking stupid to run the business.
Either way, that's the ass-hat sitting in the oval.

For me, the Presidencey is almost sacred. Seriously. I might not have been overly fond of some past leaders, from both parties, but they always showed the respect that the office deserves.
I'm speaking of attitude. The way he speaks and riles people up. The cursing. The simple vulgarity.

When you get down to it all this is "mommy talk" for "he beat Hillary." You don't want to admit it to yourself.
Funny when openly Obama cursed, and it was often reported, he was almost lionized by the press for "keeping it real."

Again, more "mommy talk." The seething anger I see is towards anyone who disagrees with the "Orange man bad" meme. You watch MSNBC? CNN? ABC? The View? It is a shrill constant attack on the President whether it's justified or not. Much of the time the attack isn't specifically justified, it a bunch of generalities of hatefulness, full of misconceptions and misrepresentations. The whole "children ripped away from their parents at the border" issue for example.

It means nothing of what you just said. Real Estate development is a risky business. Especially in the 90’s. Trump wasn’t the only developer that lost in AC. It became a ghetto. He took a shot. But he took his father’s Queens based company and turned it into a Global enterprise and very successful. That’s a fact. Now, if your jealous because his dad turned the business over to his son that’s too bad. That’s your problem you’re a bitter person.

Hey, you sound like one of those hecklers in the cheap seats I commented about a few months ago. You not only hate Trump, you hate business.

Nothing infuriates them more than a Republican who has achieved success in business. They belittle and nitpick and try to tear down the business record of every GOP candidate that has the gonads to run for public office.
Exhibit I - Mitt Romney was a very successful private equity partner at Bain Capital. I recall something like 19 out of every 20 deals he was involved with at Bain were winners. Whether they turned around failing companies or jump-started new ones, each success boosted jobs, incomes and tax revenues in their local communities. They took risks with each deal. They went to bat and didn't hide in the dugout. Bain's batting average, while not perfect, was quite respectable. So how in the fuck does Mr. Community Organizer - someone who never met a payroll in his fucking life - get to run around screaming "You didn't build that!" and spend tainted Soros money on distorted political ads spotlighting the 1 out of 20 deals that failed?
Exhibit II - Then 4 years later along comes Donald Trump. While he may not have been the most exemplary businessman - he cut his teeth in NYC when the mafia ran the building trades - he also had a largely successful track record. The fact that 4-5 of his businesses declared bankruptcy might be damning if he had no successes to offset them. But if he built 50+ skyscrapers and 90% of them performed well, then his track record looks entirely different. The only thing you can count on is that dim-retards will always scream about the failures and ignore the successes.
Now I could shrug and say that's just politics, but what galls me is this - the people who do the heckling from the cheap seats are in most cases a bunch of fucking losers who stayed in the dugout all their lives! They were too timid or lazy or stupid to step up and bat! Fake news toadies, sycophants, swamp dwellers, political hangers-on - they all played it safe. They never earned the right to criticize, let alone foster intense and irrational hatred of, business. If you don't know what it means to struggle to meet a fucking payroll, then shut the fuck up. And that goes for every one of the dimotard-socialist numbnuts who are currently running or planning to run for President.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
This poem is in the public domain.

Precision is not part of Trump’s repertoire: He speaks English as though it is a second language that he learned from someone who learned English last week. So, it is usually difficult to sift meanings from Trump’s word salads.

Trump, of course, is not alone in trafficking in language that can be interpreted as anti-Semitic. Louis Farrakhan continues to compare Jews to termites; BDS activists on campus continue to demonize Israel, and in Great Britain, the Labour Party is headed by the notoriously anti-Semitic Jeremy Corbyn.

Stein has never voted for a Democrat, but he is appalled by Trump’s anti-free trade rhetoric that he says could lead to a trade war.
What do you think the economy would look like two years into the presidency of all three remaining presidential candidates?
Hillary Clinton probably has a better grasp of things, Stein thinks. Bernie Sanders, on the other hand, is “willfully ignorant”.

Make no mistake — every individual involved with a con man is still 100% responsible for his own behavior. Trump didn’t force Michael Cohen to do anything — Cohen did it willingly. Where does the con come in? Because gaslighters/con men look for someone who gives unwavering loyalty. Gaslighters demand loyalty. That loyalty is never reciprocal.

Trump has dismissed all of the allegations - which include ogling, harassment, groping, and rape - as "fabricated" and politically motivated accounts pushed by the media and his political opponents, and promised to sue all of his accusers. In some cases, he and his lawyer have suggested that Trump didn't engage in the alleged behavior with a certain woman because she was not attractive enough.
