If it had been Obama stiffing the military?
- Bill & Hillary Clinton net worth 2001, $16 million in debt
- net worth 2014, $240 million
- Barack & Mic e Obama net worth 2007, 1.3 million
- Net worth 2018, $40 million
- Donald & Melania Trump net worth 2016, $4.5 billion
- Net worth 2017, 3.5 billion
Instead he sent them home from Syria and the left is having a hissy fit
They're not home and the border patrol is working without pay.
Trump is the Jesus we don't deserve
Trump Hasn’t Visited the Troops in a War Zone Because ‘He’s Afraid’

typical less bully: any real personal risk, he chickens out
Fraudery is in his DNA
I guess that's still better than Limbaugh dodging Vietnam for having a boil on his ass
Oh.
The bone spur thingy again...
Podiatrist’s Daughters Say He Diagnosed Trump’s Bone Spurs as Favor to Fred Trump

It's too bad Donald can't go ask his daddy for money for the wall.
Trump has a story of how his presidency’s going. Here’s what the numbers say.
It's not pretty.
According to Donald Trump, who was elected president just over two years ago, his administration is
among the greatest in history,
with the greatest economy in American history and
a nation finally respected again.
As he told Bob Woodward this summer,
“nobody’s ever done a better job than I’m doing as president.”
“In less than two years, my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country.” Lots of
$55.5 billion: Highest trade deficit in a decade
Trump said the trade deficit would drop like never before:
“The trade deficit was only $84 billion when Bill Clinton was first inaugurated. So, we’ve taken from $84 billion, which is a lot of money, to now $800 billion. And going up, going fast unless I become president. You will see a drop like you’ve never seen before. You have never seen before.”
Despite Trump’s singular focus on trade,
America is importing more goods, while exporting less, than it ever has.
The federal government announced earlier this month that America’s trade deficit hit $55.5 billion in October, rising almost a billion dollars from September.
This is a ten-year high.
Rising imports for goods were the main driver — that month’s trade deficit in goods hit $76.9 billion.
3.9 million: Number of children without health insurance
When MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough asked candidate Trump in 2017, “So all Americans will get health care of some sort?” Trump said:
“We’re going to take care of them.
We’re going to take care of them.
We have to take care of them.
Now, that’s not single payer.
That’s not anything.
That’s just human decency.”
The reality is much darker.
For the first time in almost a decade, the rate of uninsured children in the United States increased,
0: miles of new border wall
Trump has said multiple times that he has already begun constructing his border wall, despite constant fights with Congress to appropriate the money to his administration.
“A lot of the wall is built,” he said this month in the Oval Office. “It’s been very effective.”
3.3 million: The number of acres of conserved land for which Trump eliminated protections
Trump said:
“We’re going to conserve our beautiful natural habitats, reserve, and
so important, we’re going to take care of those habitats.
We’re going to take care of our reserves.
And we’re gonna take such great care of our resources.
Our resources are vital.
We’re gonna take care of those resources.”
27 percent: World’s confidence in American leadership at historic low
Trump routinely says that America is more respected now than in the past:
“We are respected again, I can tell you that. We are respected again. A lot of things have happened. We’re respected again.”
45 percent: Highest opposition to Supreme Court nominee
Trump said his second nominee to the Supreme Court,
Brett Kavanaugh, was the most deserving person in the country: “There is no one in America more qualified for this position, and no one more deserving.”
15.4: Gigawatts of capacity in coal plant retirements — a record
Trump said during the campaign he would revitalize the coal industry:78.6: Lower life expectancy
“Coal is coming back.
Clean coal is coming back, 100 percent…
We’re going to bring the coal industry back 100 percent.”
Trump said, simply, as a candidate:
“If I win, all of the bad things happening in the U.S. will be rapidly reversed!”
2.7 percent: Greenhouse gas emissions saw their biggest jump worldwide in 2018
Trump said in 2015:
“And you know what I want to do? I want really immaculate air.”
But the air is not getting cleaner.
17 investigations
It’s not just the Mueller investigation —
there are actually 17 total investigations
targeting Trump and his businesses,
