Vote the er out.
So...you dont really know and are just talking out your ass. Not a single specific thing, just a brainwashed, dip response. You want to think your thoughts matter and think your thoughts are some kind of enlightened view and anyone who you dont identify with falls under your litany of foul words and re iden y politics.
You just might be the dumbest sack of on this board. Dumber than Derp. Boutons is a ing tool, but at least he puts some substance behind his thoughts but your definitely giving Derp a run for his money as far as not being able to explain shy he says what he says.
Vote the er out.
But you still cant explain why...
To quote someone smarter tha you, " God damn, you're a stupid mother er.".
And lol "we". Pussy looking for comfort in numbers.
I said Obama set the precedent for rule by executive order. That's true.
Once he lost his Congressional majority, that's what he did.
Hasn't worked out so great for Trump. His EOs have been continuously slapped down and rightly so.
He's actually quite below average for the number of executive orders during a term in last century plus. Not to justify the imperial presidency, but the precedent was already there for decades.
The motif of legal incompetence surrounds Trump like an evil vapor...
That's fair, but there was an uptick after the Senate was lost.
I can let that one go, it was bad enough that Obama coddled the financial sector in favor of suffering Americans.
We're still not out of the woods. The bad debt was never written down. Instead the financial sector got trillions in QE and a decade of arbitrage from zero bound interest rates.
Savers got ed.
Homeowners got ed. The bad guys were never held to account.
That's one big reason we are where we are now.
BigFinance (aka predatory, extractive, criminal Capitalism) is one of the dominant owners of govt (yes, "progressive/Dem" Obama, too), so Obama/Treasury/Fed bailed out BigFinance, but let Main Street get ed, jobs lost, 4M homes stolen, etc.
Just one of the many ways that oligarchy rigged non-oligarchy Americans to be ed and un able, and there's no (peaceful) way to un it.

"You can't resign! You're fired!"
Trump calls the shots. Mattis can get started on his presidential election run a lot sooner. Extremely classy and thoughtful of our POTUS to take the high road like that

Mulvaney Suggests Trump Didn’t Know ISIS ‘Point Person’ McGurk Because
McGurk’s le is the ‘Special Presidential Envoy for the Global Coalition to Counter ISIS’.
How is it that the president doesn’t know his point person in the battle against ISIS?”
“The administration is thousands of – the executive branch of government is millions of people– I have no idea who that person is. Never heard of him–”
“You don’t know Brett McGurk?” Karl interrupted.
“Until yesterday. All I know is that there’s an Obama appointee who saw an opportunity–” said Mulvaney.
“He was a Rehnquist clerk-” continued Karl.
“He was,” said Mulvaney.
“He served throughout the Bush administration, he’s a lifelong Republican. He’s not an Obama appointee. He was tapped on–” Karl said.
“He took that – did he take that position under Obama’s administration?” interrupted Mulvaney.
“He was – he was held over from the Bush administration,” Karl clarified.
That’s when Mulvaney got to what he was really saying:
Trump wasn’t paying much attention to it.

James Mattis didn't simply resign, he pulled every fire alarm at the Pentagon on the way out
He did something historic—resigning with a public letter saying he was in stark disagreement with Donald Trump, quite specifically in regards to his views on Russia and China.
Never in the history of this nation has a defense secretary resigned in protest over issues of national security and military strategy. Never.
As Donald Trump was tweeting that Mattis was heading off to retirement,
Mattis was ordering his aides to distribute 50 copies of his resignation letter throughout the highest echelons of the Pentagon.
The New York Times has the extraordinarily unusual details of Mattis’s resignation.
Officials said Mr.to make certain our military leaders knew he was resigning because Donald Trump’s view are so dangerous to the security of the United States.
Mattis went to the White House with his resignation letter already written,
but nonetheless made a last attempt at persuading the president to reverse his decision about Syria, which Mr. Trump announced on Wednesday over the objections of his senior advisers.
Mr. Mattis, a retired four-star Marine general, was rebuffed. Returning to the Pentagon,
he asked aides to print out 50 copies of his resignation letter and distribute them around the building.
Sen. Graham on Trump’s plan to withdraw troops from Syria:
“I can assure you it was done not based on sound military advice.
All the advice the President received from his national security team was it’s not time to withdraw from Syria…
This is just a disaster in the making.”

A sr military official told me US special forces troops distraught, upset,
morally disturbed by having to tell their kurdish allies in Syria that,
because of orders, their promises of defense won’t be kept.

I am told to expect more resignations at the Pentagon in wake of Mattis.
A senior US defense official tells me:
“Make no mistake - Mattis is resigning in protest over the President's national security policies," a resignation based on "principle."
