Of Special Interest To All Those Who Voted For Donald Trump

Of Special Interest To All Those Who Voted For Donald Trump


637b3bc2.pngI know I have sworn off politics. But this was just too juicy to pass us. I don't know exactly who compiled this but they obviously feel the same way I do about the current Incompetent In Chief.
This is winning?

President Trump leadership? Here are a fraction of his accomplishments:

Appointing a foreign agent as the National Security Advisor knowing he was under investigation.

Appointing an anti-civil rights and known racist as the Attorney General of the United States.
Lowest approval ratings of any president at this point.
Attacking and ignoring the science of climate change and the EPA.
Appointing unqualified and incompetent individuals such as Pruitt, Devos, Carson, and Perry.
Rolling back protections for transgender students.
Refuses to release his taxes just like any presidents have for the past 40 years.
Losing the respect and the title of the Leader of the Free World.
Under investigation by the FBI.
Failed mission in Yemen.
Two failed Muslim bans.
Disastrous anti-middle class and anti-environment executive orders.
Failed repeal of Obamacare.
Striking an already empty airbase in Syria to distract from low ratings and the Russiagate.
Awkward and embarrassing meetings with foreign dignitaries.
Inviting racist clowns like Ted Nugent and Palin to the Whitehouse.
A ton of golfing.
Obsession with President Obama. Taking credit for Obama's accomplishments.
Accusing Obama of wiretapping him with no evidence whatsoever.
Tweeting non-sense at 3am.
A whole lot of lies.
No transparency.
Most ethically challenged administration in US history.
Most secretive administration in US history.
Nepotism by giving family members important jobs and deals.
Cronyism by appointing billionaires to his cabinet.
Proposing massive tax cuts for the rich like himself.
Allowing a banned pesticide proven to be dangerous to be used again.
Falsely claiming navy ships going toward North Korea.
ISIS remains in large despite his promises.
Congratulating a Purple Heart recipient.
Introduction to connotative terminology such as snowflakes, alternative facts, fake news and bigly...
Targeting national monuments created by Obama and Clinton.
Signing a bill that allows your private data sold to the highest bidder.
Cutting after school programs, and meals on wheels.
Wasting millions of tax-payers money by wife and kid not moving in to the Whitehouse.
Promoting Mar-A-Lago by State Department.
Settled multi-million dollars lawsuit against his fraudulent university.
Dropping one of the largest non-nuclear weapons on earth to kill only 94 ISIS terrorists.
Allowing offshore drilling.
Slowest GDP growth in 3 years. (Fair to blame him since he took credit for good jobs numbers in January and February)
Worst jobs report in nearly a year in March.
Making it easy for the mentially challenged to buy guns.
$1-3 million weekly trips to Florida.
1$ billion lost in tourism.
Inviting a thug like Duterte to the Whitehouse.
Saying "I would be honored" to meet the Dear Leader of North Korea.
Not having a clue about the history of United States.
Rolling back healthy school lunch standards and Let Girls Learn program promoted by Michele Obama.
Firing the FBI director while being investigated for treason.
Leaking classified intelligence to Russians.
Obstruction of justice by asking the FBI to drop the investigation into Flynn.
Demanding loyalty from the FBI, and everybody else for that matter.
Proposing deep cuts to public school programs.
Signing an arms deal worth billions of dollars with the world's largest sponsor of radical Islam subsidized by the American taxpayers.
Palling around and dancing with tyrants, thugs, and extremists like Putin, Duterte, and Saudis while abandoning democratically elected heads of states and our true allies.
Pulling out of Paris Climate Accord
Inventing the word "covfefe".
Politicizing terrorist attacks and insulting the mayor of London.
Funneling money intended for children's cancer research to his private accounts.
Blaming Qatar for terrorism and putting US troops stationed there at risk while praising Saudi Arabia which is the godfather of extremism.
Actively under investigation for obstruction of Justice and collusion to rig the election.

Now there's not much we can do about what is currently going on. I believe the justice department will eventually take care of that. But what all the Trump supporters need to understand is that this is not doing your country any good whatsoever. All it's doing is creating division and promoting hate and greed.
I have a lot of empathy for those in the US who really wanted a change from all the political bullshit. But honestly, you can't really look through this (partial) list and believe you made the right choice here. And I I also believe that this situation can get a lot worse before it gets better.
Because he's still trying to privatize health care. He's still trying to give tax breaks to the very rich, which every economist on the planet will tel you does not create jobs, and he's still making a Total ass out of himself every day on Twitter. And he does this all under Ronald Reagan's banner promise of Making America Great Again.
But I'll tell you something right now, as someone who has been paying attention to your county for many years, America already was great. America had just pulled itself out of the deepest recession since the Great Depression. America was starting to take care of its people and pull back from being the world's policeman.
America was healing up nicely. But then along comes Trump. And all he wants to do is make as much money as he can off the presidency, and undo everything Barack Obama spent year long years trying to get done. Why? Because he is a vindictive and a very small person. Yeah, he talks like regular folks do. Yeah, he promises you the moon and the stars.
But it's been eight months now and he hasn't delivered a damn thing that will benefit any of the people who voted for him.
This is because he does not have the slightest clue what America is all about. He lived in a gold-plated penthouse on Fifth Avenue. He's filthy rich. He's about as far removed from the people who elected him as he can be and still be on this planet.
I can tell from his steadily declining approval, ratings that more and more people are figuring out just how useless he actually is as a president. So this is for all those who are still hanging on to the idea that there's something in this presidency for them...there's not.

You know, maybe you did Brian McKenzie. And maybe that's a good thing. I was starting to feel a little too diplomatic for my own good.

Jim Murray assaults our political delusion that the Trump presidency may yet turn out to be of some value in the long run -- with a list of dreary screw up after dreary screw up. I could laugh if it did not hurt so much, and promise to become even worse.
