Kut's Trump Approval Thread #1 (Starts Out at 100%)

[HubertGummer]

Long faces on the D side.... what a bunch of dicks.

Yes and all the douche bag butt heads on the left staying in their seats and hands in lap.

I was surprised with a few things he said that he didn't get a response from some of them... I guess they are so set against him they refuse to "show" support for the stuff they actually approve of too... It does look awfully divided.

Just like my 4 YO acts when she doesn't get her way...no matter what I say to her, all I get is a pouty face and a sharp "NO". She doesn't even listen to what I say, she has already made up her mind.

'Bout forgot what it's like to not have to look at Biden and Pelosi behind our president.

It's wonderful isn't it!

This sums it up exactly...


I was watching it on PBS, and the commentators seem to be much pro trump than I've heard the media in awhile if not before... Are they a little right leaning or something??

Exactly.
There are forces pulling their strings that we do not see. Hands firmly implanted in rectums playing puppeteer.

 

[Tombs]

Dems have played their hand wrong.

The mid terms are going to go badly for them now. They should have stayed shut up and remained neutral to trump after he was elected and slowly built up resistance in the party as the mid terms neared.

Now they're going to look like a tired and grumpy old act that's distasteful to the majority of the country. I'll be surprised if they aren't a 3rd tier political party by 2020 at this rate.

I miss her sitting behind the president.

While I get what you are saying, cm... I would suggest that it's not their _hands_ that are firmly implanted in their rectums...

 

[Alpo]

I thought it was an excellent speech. Perhaps a bit overly ambitious, but still a fine SOU address.

 

[Kutnupe14]

I almost feel like I should give him a point for not blowing up that speech with some conspiracy theories, personal attacks, and general nonsense. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but this is the first time IMO (that's for you CP) that the president has sounded presidential. Kut (hopes he has turned a corner)

Well.......yeah but decorum and all you know.....

That side of the room was so blatantly negative. There were some who stood but did you see the camera catch the guy starting to get up and applaud (Dem) and the lady next to him telling him he best not do it. She obviously has his package in her desk.

I couldn't wait to get into the shop this morning to see what I knew you were going to say...You did not disappoint...Thank you Kut...It was "good one" as they say....

There is no doubt the presentation was good. I was -- and still am -- hopeful he will do something about the issues veterans face with care at the VA and processing paperwork for benefits. The standing ovation for the fallen SEAL was touching, but there are a lot of veterans who were expecting this to be first on his list of priorities and there has been no mention of real action, to date.

I totally understand, but am still giving him until the beginning of April.

This was very similar to his campaign speeches IMHO. Good speeches, but that's it.

By April, we should have a clearer idea of how he'll be able to work his policies through Congress. That's the difficult part of the job.

This is part of what is disconcerting, though.

"Dead on arrival"? C'mon Lindsay... err Lindsey. That's probably not helpful.

There is a sense of karma to it, though. Trump's bombast on the campaign trail against established Republicans becomes a problem.

Nah, more like Lindsey Graham being Lindsey Graham specifically for the exclusive benefit of Lindsey Graham... let's just say even W. Bush knew not to drop the soap bar with Graham around.

 

[hoosierdoc]

Establishment can't have Trump succeed, because if he does they lose power for a long time. Repubs and Dems will fight him on everything. Pathetic

That rabbit hole is so very deep. I seriously doubt any human being could get anything done in the short time he has been in the big boy chair. He has already set the world on fire with actions promised to the people. More so than any elected official I can remember.
The VA situation is not a quick fix.

 

[1DOWN4UP]

If the man at least trys,and can't get but a sliver of his campaign promises accomplished,I am going to feel I got more than ANY establishment candidate would have given me anyhow.....But I think he will use the bully pulpit to his advantage.......And that will not be good,because he will call em out by name......Is my guess.
