The Establishments war on Donald Trump Title: Libertysflame is rapidly become rabidly anti President Trump libertysflame.com is rapidly becoming both anti-Trump and irrelevant.
Saturday April 29th, 2017 marked the end of President Trumps first 100 days in office. The list of his accomplishments was overwhelming, but, imagine how much more he could have accomplished for We, The People, had he not had to contend with: A hostile House lead by never Trumper Paul Ryan, A hostile senate led by never Trumper Mitch McConnell, The hostile never Trump Fake News, not just in Maine but nationwide, The hostile lawyers playing reporters and reporterettes in the White House press corps, or are they reporters and reporterettes playing hostile never Trump lawyers? A hostile court system where two bit district judges get to overrule the President of These Uninted States on matters of national defense. While we Trumpsters cannot do much about the judges and the fake news today, we can deal with the Congress come November 2018, for on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. During the mid-term elections, all 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives and 33 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate will be up for grabs. Until then, we can boycott every advertiser of every fake news entity. Poster Comment: As I result I come much less frequent.

And ALL fit his campaign promises. I don't fault Trump for Congress' inactions, nor do I fault him for a hostile judicial system and a hostile press. It's been 100 days and we do have Gorsuch -- a huge win. 30 Executive Orders overturning much of Obama's mess. Waiting on the courts for the refugee and sanctuary cities decisions. Healthcare is close and Congress has a firm tax reform blueprint. The wall will be built. What's not to like?
#24. To: misterwhite (#7) What's not to like? If he signs and does not veto the budget.
#28. To: BobCeleste (#24) "If he signs and does not veto the budget." You gotta pick your fights. Why shut down the government over a couple of small issues? Shut it down in September when the entire budget comes up.
#32. To: misterwhite (#28) You gotta pick your fights. Why shut down the government over a couple of small issues? The slaughter of between 35,000 and 70,000 little human babies trapped in the womb, is not a small issue.
#36. To: BobCeleste (#32) "The slaughter of between 35,000 and 70,000 little human babies trapped in the womb, is not a small issue." Trump ran on a platform of making abortion illegal?
#38. To: misterwhite (#36) Trump ran on a platform of making abortion illegal? He ran on a pro-life platform and said that he would defund Planned Parenthood. He said he would build a Border Wall. He said that he would renegotiate trade treaties with China in favor of the US. He said we were going to stay out of Syria. He said a lot of things that were very different from what Republicans or Democrats were saying. And I and millions of others believed him. He was never shy of confrontation, and he said he was a great dealmaker. Look at the confrontation-free crap sandwich of a deal that he supports now, as he asks for money to plunge into foreign entanglements and lets China be for their "support" against North Korea. On a variety of issues he said the equivalent of "Read my lips, no new taxes", just like HW Bush did. That's WHY he got elected. That's WHY I gave the Republican brand - which I hate - one more chance. I was duped. So many of us were. He's not doing what he promised us. He's doing damn near the OPPOSITE of it. He got power from us promising one set of things, but then sided with our enemies to do the opposite. He broke faith. We read his lips, and they told us lies. This Republican-controlled budget funds Planned Parenthood. He said he would defund them. Trump is a liar. The Republicans are liars: they are not pro-life. Those of us who believed him have been had. Never again. Never, ever again.
#39. To: Vicomte13 (#38) (Edited) "And I and millions of others believed him." Seems to me that you believed all this would be accomplished in the first 100 days. Since it didn't happen, you're prepared to give up and call Trump a liar. Fine. That's your opinion. Maybe Hillary will run again and this time you can vote for her. THEN you can whine about all the shit not getting done in your timeframe.
Replies to Comment # 39. Seems to me that you believed all this would be accomplished in the first 100 days. Since it didn't happen, you're prepared to give up and call Trump a liar. If it seems that way to you, then you are an undiscerning person. When somebody is pro-life, then I expect him to be pro-life in ALL of his decisions. So, for example, when he says that he is going to defund Planned Parenthood, then I damned well expect him to fight to defund Planned Parenthood the first time, and every time, it comes up on a bill. I don't expect him to agree to fund it the first time it comes up, and then vaguely promise to do it later. When he says he's going to build a wall, then I expect him to fight constantly on every bill, to build that Wall. I do not expect him to not stand and fight for it, and just sign a funding bill without a fight. If he won't shut down the government now to keep his promises, he won't do it later. But you are an undiscerning person, so rather than have a stupid and pointless fight now, I will do with you what I did with AKA Stone. With Stone, I said I would wait until this budget deal was proposed before going back to him on it. I thought Trump would screw us, and I was right, but I was willing to hold off on discussing that with him until Trump had proven it. With you, it appears you're going to take the "not yet" approach. You always will, because you care more about the Republican Party and its power than about the issues I have named. Nevertheless, I will simply hold off having any further discussion on this with you until September. Republicans like you are saying "Wait until September". Ok, I will wait until September to discuss it with you. Then, when Trump and the Republicans screw us AGAIN, I will post an I TOLD YOU SO message. Trump and the Republicans have no intention of EVER allowing a government shutdown over Planned Parenthood OR the Border Wall. They will always shuck and jive. It's what Republicans do. Their leaders are the most dishonest people in America. The rest of them are undiscerning. Trump duped me into voting GOP one last time. Never again. Of course if, come September, he DOES jam through the Planned Parenthood cutoff and funding for the Border Wall, I will give him credit for it. You'll be able to knock me over with a feather if that really happens.
#43. To: misterwhite (#39) Maybe Hillary will run again and this time you can vote for her. No. I would just stay home and not vote. When the alternative is Democrats or Republicans, the solution is to look at the third parties. If they are not acceptable either (and currently they are not; the Reform Party was), then the solution is to go have lunch, not to vote for any of the unacceptable.
#46. To: misterwhite (#39) You are absolutely correct….and of course you know that. I thought it would it would be the right thing to post that….and it was. Whiners need to realize Trump was elected for 4 years….not 100 days. I can’t understand some people….they don’t even understand themselves.
