Trump loves to jump ahead, whether to make someone suffer his wrath, or to show how smart he is; I say with a chuckle. The hurricane impact snafu is a perfect example. Probably because he just wasn’t paying attention and was more interested in tee times, he stated Alabama was in the crosshairs and then needed to be corrected. Because he can’t ever be wrong, he took his presidential sharpie to a weather track showing the projected path and extended it to include Alabama, best dumb a*ss president ever.

Trump family continues to make money off the president and now he is raiding to pentagon coffers, because he can’t possibly go into the 2020 run without having at least a mile of the big glorious wall built.

I am assuming you flakes have resigned yourselves to the inevitable reelection. Will you all commiserate in a similar fashion moving forward?

Don’t worry when he looses and your crying in your beer, he can be counted on to throw you a roll of paper towels. He may completely F up his recollection of the briefing on the storm, he may have inadvertently worried the residents (well maybe the like minded juveniles) of Alabama and made a complete and total a*ss of himself in his 12 year old like attempt at making his prediction somewhat believable; but you know he will come thru for you in your time of need. Cracks me up that you eat up his child like behavior as if he is your roll model, me thinks you really need to aim a bit higher.

Me thinks you need to learn how to spell loses before you make an a*ss of yourself.I say with a chuckle.

Oh,and if he does lose....Don’t expect the right to have a meltdown. Most reasonable adults can deal with losing without a four year tantrum.

And yet you act like a #^&#^&#^&#^& each and every day here. Commenting on someone's spelling is low - even for you (although it doesn't surprise me).

Didn't the right have a melt down and constantly try to find things to complain about Obama? You yourself said you got so upset at what people said about Trump that you decided to start posting in this forum - yet you really have nothing to add other than childish insults about people's spelling.

Just giving the snarky people here an opportunity to demonstrate their sharkiness.

I'm sure it pervades their whole lives.

He acts just like his childlike roll model, don’t expect anything more than the usual from him, no different than Trump. Someone hits a nerve, it’s insults and stupidity. I post usually on my iPad and without my cheeters on so I can watch some TV at the same time, so I don’t care if auto correct or a miss spelled word creep in. But this “reasonable adult” feels this is a reflection of intelligence and a license to send an insult my way. I have no college degree, had my own hvac sales rep business and retired at 62, so I’d suggest I’m smarter than the average bear.

Go ask any therapist what the constant insults and mean spirited bullying might be a symptom of, I’m pretty sure there might be more than little big man syndrome going on there.

I try to stay above his childish BS, but feel he really needs some help.

Some people around here, speak sarcasm like it's their first language.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

20 million into Trump properties, Pence goes out of his way to spend our tax dollars at a Trump properties, GOP senators and foreign dignitaries spending money at Trump properties; you guys on the right don’t get it. This always was about Trump reality TV and making money for the family.

Love the story Politico is breaking, where the Air Force has been directed to refuel C17’s multiple times in Scotland, to spend 11 million in fuel to support an airport in trouble of closing. Never mind it’s not a military base where fuel is cheaper and where previously it’s always been done, how about its the only airport servicing Trumps turnbury golf resort. Nothing to see there right? It also appears the military isn’t cooperating in supplying details to the oversight committee, nothing to worry about right boys! The Trump family is making money and it’s in your face I don’t care about right or wrong behavior, the man is going to milk it for all it’s worth.

Trump is like the mayor of Fall River, blatant corruption in plain view.

Your tax dollars, military paying a premium for gas at a commercial airport, only so Trump can help it from going under so he can continue to make money and that doesn’t bother you. Or that Trump and his administration and now apparently the military are ignoring every request from congress and the oversight committee. You three monkeys see no evil, hear no evil, and ignore all the spoken evil; all to promote Trump island and his isolation policies. I here all the talk about the constitution, yet our Potus ignores at at every turn, spending our tax money where congress refused to give it and he signed the bill in agreement. Show me please in the constitution where the president has the power of the purse, you guys are hypocrites.

1) Trump bought Turnberry golf resort in Scotland in 2014 for $60 mn, spent $150 mn to renovate - part of an all-cash spending spree that is not consistent with Trump's visible resources.
2) Turnberry has consistently lost money. Trump's other golf resort in Scotland has lost even more, $6.2 million in losses for the two in 2017.
3) Turnberry is almost a 90 minute drive from the region's main airport, Glasgow International. The most convenient way to reach this troubled, under-performing golf course by air is via Prestwick airport, SW of Glasgow, 34 miles from Turnberry.
4) But Prestwick Airport of course is also in desperate trouble. It nearly closed in 2013. The Scottish government took responsibility. Airport went back on market last year; looking for a buyer despite 7.6 million in losses for year ending March 2018.
5) Sometime in 2017, US Air Force planes began landing at Prestwick to refuel. A lot. They bought $11 million of fuel. Prestwick's passenger business loses money massively, so servicing the USAF helps the bottom line -and makes the airport more attractive to prospective buyers
6) As @NatashaBertrand reports: there is no paperwork available at all as to why the USAF is making these refueling decisions. Nor will DoD answer questions about the decision. Maybe there are excellent reasons; if so, nobody is stating them.
7) Meanwhile at least one US Aircrew has been lodged at taxpayer expense at the Trump Turnberry, despite hundreds of less expensive alternatives closer to Prestwick - and despite a less expensive very pleasant-looking hotel literally across the road from Turnberry
8) Again, maybe there are sound explanations for all of this. Yet Trump administration seems bashful about sharing those explanations with public. And of course - none of this was voluntarily disclosed by Trump Organization.
9) Just one more example of reporters engaging in that behavior so offensive to Eric Trump: asking questions. Thanks Natasha.

And there’s always a tweet

“Donald Trump pledges to make Prestwick Airport 'really successful'”
