Well, Larry...here in highly conservative Kansas the (mostly Republican) farmers are NOT amused at the demise of the T.P.P. agreement...
...and for every one of
them there are countless other people who back the move.
...in a recent election to replace Pompeo, who is now CIA chief, the Republican beat the Democratic candidate by only 7% points, whereas the usual spread between any Republican and a Democrat in Kansas is in the range of 40% points...
...due to the fact Estes was a 'so-so' candidate AND the fact Thompson's campaign tried to Super Glue him to the state's very unpopular governor...but, you knew that already, didn't you.
...I'm not sure what you mean by "...leading from behind"
Really? The term stems from Obama's advisers saying he was content to let other nations publicly lead the search for solutions to the Libyan conflict. But, again, I'm betting you already knew
that, too.
Yeah, he's done a lot, but mostly using those same "executive order" powers that the Republicans were so adamantly against when B.O. was president.
Executive orders are
reversed BY executive orders...but, I'm sure you are aware of
that as well.
I have never seen a POTUS who is so at war with congress (not even B.O.)...
...necessitated
for the most part by the 24/7 opposition
to EVERYTHING by the likes of Schumer, Pelosi, and the rest of that crew...although the Freedom Caucus hasn't been of any help either.
...the ones I think he ought to be at war with, he's best friends with now. Just this morning it was all over the news that Trump is now saying that China is NOT "...a currency manipulator"... (etc., etc.)
...You can KEEP your doctor, you can KEEP your plan, Obamacare is NOT a tax, the average family will save $2,500 a year, Benghazi was caused by a video, the NSA is NOT spying on the American people, there's not a SMIDGEON of corruption at the IRS, Russian reset button, Hillary did nothing wrong, Bergdahl served with honor and distinction, 'red line in the sand', our borders are safer now than they've
ever been, my administration will be the most transparent administration in the country's history, Obamacare negotiations will be televised on C-span, "shovel ready jobs", I'll cut the deficit in half by the end of my 1st term, etc., etc. etc. and more etc.
Yeah, there are many of us of the centrist persuasion...
...'blew coffee out my nose on
that one.
...the Electoral College made an unwise decision...and it is encouraging to see that many on the right are also coming to that same opinion. If one of the purposes of the Electoral College was to ensure that nobody who was not qualified to be President of this great nation could be elected to lead it, well, they failed miserably.
All are statements of
o-p-i-n-i-o-n only...and you know what 'they' say about opinions.
'Gotta leave it here. The Mrs. and I have to catch a plane...
