So Yesterday.....

[The Dad Fisherman]

Trump signs an Executive order to provide more funding to HBCUs (Historically Black Universities Colleges and Universities)....that racist bastard

Trump signs executive order on black colleges

and he Signed two bills to provide more job opportunities for women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) fields.....such a misogynist too.

Trump signs laws to promote women in STEM


Yet all we got to read about on CNN yesterday was how savage Kellyanne Conway is for putting her feet on the sofa in the Oval Office and how Trump eats a well done steak w/ ketchup.

There's some "Hard Hitting" journalism there....and you wonder why he hates them.

GREAT post. He's also a xenophobe (despite being married to a foreigner), and an anti-Semite (despite the fact that his daughter Ivanka is a Jew).

The press is bonkers. They will never give him a fair shake.

[Jim in CT]

And a prediction TDF. Joe Manchin, the democrat senator from WV, will switch to the GOP before his re-election bid in 2018. For the few moderates left in that party, the current freak show has no place for them. If Trump can accomplish 75% of the things he promised last night, nothing can stop him from getting re-elected.

Watching Nancy Pelosi and Rosa DeLauro and Richard Blumenthal last night, was like watching the 'Cantina scene' in the first Star Wars movie.

Can you imagine what it would be like to be an Atlanta Falcon fan being forced to watch a rerun of the Super Bowl? I bet it would be pretty close to what happened on the left side of the isle at Trumps address last night.

I saw it in that liberal rag the NY Times

https://www.nytimes.com/aponline/201...-colleges.html

How much more funding will actually go to them?

Do you think he "hates them" bc they call out his constant lying?

[The Dad Fisherman]

Is the NY Times CNN?

and it kills you to admit he had a good day for himself yesterday.

You mean bc he stuck to his script and tried not to insult anyone? The bar is set so low with him that he gives somewhat of a normal speach and he gets praised for his temperament.

So again how much "more funding" is there bc I know you like to go through posts with a fine tooth comb?

"You mean bc he stuck to his script and tried not to insult anyone? "

Well that puts him ahead of his predecessor, who stuck to the script and managed to insult lots of people.

A CNN poll shows 57% of the people they surveyed, feel more optimistic because of the speech. He hit a home run.

Go back and look at your responses to my posts and you'll see who is the 3 year old here. You would have been all over that "more funding" comment.

[The Dad Fisherman]

Well considering the OP was about how CNN ignores the good he did and you came back with a NY Time article....posted with all the snarkiness you so detest..... So I pointed out the Times wasn't CNN....

and I should have posted "Help provide funds" instead of "provide funds"....

There...happy?

Would you like your Gold Star, Cookie and a nap now.... (oooohh that was snarky)

Good one.

Is it any different than when the Rep. don't stand for the Dem President or when they yell out "you lie"?

Stick around and respond.

Here is the difference. When that republican yelled "you lie", he was crucified on every TV station the next day, including Foxnews. But the dems can boo Trump (for having the temerity to want an advocacy group for victims of immigrant crime), and no one says anything.

That double standard, is a big reason why Trump got elected. And if your side fails to address that, they may not come back from exile for a long, long time.

All those giddy female Dems, all dressed in white like it was a college sorority initiation, cracking up while they gave Trump the thumbs down. If that's what your side thinks the people want from their elected representatives, they may be in for a real shellacking in 2018.

If Trump follows through on a few of those promises, and they have the desired effect, the Democrats will be done. We have a guy in the oval office, who admittedly displays way too much a**-holery, but he has no interest whatsoever, in being told that something is a good idea but will take 9 years because of the system.

I don't remember having Rep No Shows for Obama's State of the Union or any other of Obama's Congressional Addresses. If so they would be just as unpatriotic. "You Lie" was one individual. Did you see Pelosie's face last night? That said it all for the Dems.

[Jim in CT]

Paul, Trump often comes across as a jerk. But it's getting to the point, where everyone in the media, is treating Trump the way Sean Hannity treated Obama (nothing but bashing the bad stuff, ignoring anything good).

It's one thing when one guy on one network is so nakedly biased. Today, everyone at ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC looks exactly as silly as Sean Hannity looked for the last 8 years.

The media, and most of the Democratic machine, look exactly that biased right now. After that speech last night, there is a risk in trying to make the guy look like a cross between Hitler and Bozo the Clown.

Jim mentioned a double standard and I was pointing out some double standards that I see here.

Watch the video...you can clearly see Bernie sanders and others sit down in the middle of it.

So they did infact stand and applaud.

Yes at 1:32 Bernie sat down - and at least 1general stopped clapping also. Then a sec. later there where more/louder clapping so we have no way of knowing if Bernie stood back up.

Couldn't he have thought the clapping was over?

That would not only be unpatriotic but shameful.

Wow its sad that you needed to post such stories in an attempt to defend Trump ..

you should be outraged that it took so long to find anything he's done as a positive..

But signing a bill passed by congress is his Job its not special

and another exec order ...

and 1 coherent speech is not a Sea change

But he'll take credit for the stock market going up Great optimism for future of U.S. business, AND JOBS, with the DOW having an 11th straight record close. Big tax & regulation cuts coming!

will he do the same when it corrects it's self.. seeing he hasn't passed a thing through congress

"you should be outraged that it took so long to find anything he's done as a positive.."

The guy had tens of thousands of employees. That's a good thing. Google "Donald Trump charity" and you will see a decent sized list of acts of generosity.

What's outrageous is how dishonest everyone on the left is being with the guy. None of you can accept the fact that he has some good points. TDF was posting things that he just did this week, that wasn't all he could find for all of Trump's life.

"and another exec order ... "

A very simple question for you. I dare you to answer. If Trump was a racist, why would he sign an executive order, increasing funds to predominantly black colleges?

Is he a racist? I don't know. There is all kinds of evidence to suggest he is not.


"But he'll take credit for the stock market going up "

That's because he deserves credit for what's happening today. The stock market went up today, largely because of his speech. Not because the Dems were giving him the thumbs down.

"will he do the same when it corrects it's self"

If he doesn't, we can fault him for that. But the market may go down for reasons that have nothing to do with him.

"Big tax & regulation cuts coming!"

If you are opposed to tax cuts, you are perfectly free to pay more than you owe. But you won't. So you will enjoy the benefit of those cuts, but you won't give him any credit.

What's outrageous is how dishonest everyone on the right is being with the guy. blinded by his BS

Never claimed he was a racist some have ... but signing an exec order is like saying I have a black friend ... look I am no racist

So it can go up because of what he says but go down for reasons that have nothing to do with him .. really so when he dosn't provide these "Big tax & regulation cuts.. he hold not responsibility... he'll balme it on the Rinos

"Big tax & regulation cuts coming!"

If you are opposed to tax cuts, you are perfectly free to pay more than you owe. But you won't. So you will enjoy the benefit of those cuts, but you won't give him any credit.

its all smoke an mirrors you my be happy with 1500.00 tax break
I call it a bait and switch and many of his supporters seem to have troubles with Math and think its a great deal.. except the rich ones their benefit is tangible


looking at those around you, however, you may take note of the fact that the wealthiest 20% of taxpayers will enjoy an average annual tax cut of $16,660 -- with the top 1% walking away with an extra $214,000!

As you can see, the middle class, on average, will have an extra $1,500 WOW what a deal ,

WDMSO - not every movement in the stock market is because of the President. Most people (all of the sane ones) attribute yesterday's jump, to optimism fueled by his speech the night before.

Tomorrow, there could be an earthquake in Manhattan which could result in the market going down. That wouldn't be the fault of the sitting President, though naturally that wouldn't stop liberals from blaming Trump.

Wow, talk about completely missing the point of the post....

it wasn't really to talk about what Trump did...it was about what CNN failed to report on....the only thing they reported on was feet on a sofa and a dry steak.

But positive news in regards to Blacks and Women....
