you act like I a big trump fan even though I supported the conservatives who stood against him on health care and the tax bill.
Trump is not my guy. He was simply a better pick that hillary.
He was a fool for making tweet.
You have to pick your hills to fight for.
Trump picks far to many and the wrong ones. its hurting his presidency.
lucky for him your party has a very weak bench and is split between the oligarchs and the working man.
I think rand paul will beat him in the primaries if he continues with this establishment health care and tax crap.

I merely commented on your post. Whatever the intention was, Trump got played like a bad fiddle by a couple of TV personalities. Because the leader of the free world is stuck in a school yard and just can't help himself. He is an easily manipulated fool. Why else would Putin want him in the White House? You want a chess player? There's your chess player.
so what did you intend to say when you very selectively edited my quote and asked who is wearing egg?
why did you just not quote the who thing if you were not trying to troll.

I am getting increasingly sick of Krauthammer. He's pompous and wrong a lot, a bad combination. If Trump had listened to these losers, he would not be president.
No one who voted for Trump is going to refuse to do so again because he mocks some cable assholes. Trump has shown repeatedly that he could care less what the media think or say. But Trump has a way of leaving his targets badly damaged. Now, who can forget the image of the pushy social climbers Joe and Mika, fresh from cosmetic surgery, desperately trying to insert themselves into the social world of the Trumps. And being rudely rejected.

Only an asshole would defend the president's contemptible behavior. Are you defending the president's contemptible behavior, AAA?
that was what I was addressing...
i don't think she outplayed anybody. she was just doing her crap and trump was doing his.

This is Trump's reasoning , as he threatens to a Global Trade War.
Trump’s reasoning, a source said, is that the measure probably won’t pass, but the president’s supporters will love the idea and enjoy the stagecraft of the resulting battle.
Trump and Bannon threaten global trade war — as horrified Cabinet officials beg them to stop
President Donald Trump has reportedly cast aside his Cabinet’s international trade plan and is mulling a move to out-and-out economic warfare with the rest of the world, including current trading partners like China and Germany.
Axios.com said Friday that a tense Monday meeting in the White House’s Roosevelt room saw the president’s team divided into factions, the larger more moderate group and a small cabal of “America First advisers” who demanded that tariffs be placed on all imported products, including steel.
These tariffs — taxes or “duties” paid on items imported from other countries — could extend to include crucial manufacturing materials like aluminum, semiconductors, paper and household appliances like washing machines.
Among around 25 officials, the vote count was “22 against and 3 in favor — but since one of the three is named Donald Trump, it was case closed,” wrote Mike Allen and Jonathan Swan.
No decisions have been made, Axios said, but the president is firmly convinced that he needs to impose tariffs on imports and refuses to let it drop, against the vast majority of his Cabinet members’ advice.
“In a plan pushed by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, and backed by chief strategist Steve Bannon (not present at the meeting), trade policy director Peter Navarro and senior policy adviser Stephen Miller, the United States would impose tariffs on China and other big exporters of steel. Neither Mike Pence nor Jared Kushner weighed in either way,” wrote Allen and Swan.
The vast majority of the meeting’s attendees argued strenuously against imposing tariffs on imports, saying that the plan is bad politics and would result in economic turmoil on a global scale — impacting not just China, but U.S. relations with a number of key economic and military allies like Canada, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the United Kingdom.
“At one point, Trump was told his almost entire cabinet thought this was a bad idea. But everyone left the room believing the country is headed toward a major trade confrontation,” said Axios.
Trump’s reasoning, a source said, is that the measure probably won’t pass, but the president’s supporters will love the idea and enjoy the stagecraft of the resulting battle.
The resulting decision is expected to be announced in the days ahead.
