They have no plans to work with Republicans. You are being lied to.

I do admire one thing about Trump -- how he is able to bewilder his cult with BS. He tried to take away their health insurance and they love him. He'll soon give them a tax increase so he can fund a tax-cut on the rich and they'll love him.
Yes, just like Obama bewildered his cult with his own B.S and still does. There's no difference. Regardless, contrary to what liberals wanted everyone to believe, Trump hasn't started a war, hasn't ruined the economy and hasn't been impeached, boo hoo.

39% approval rating for Trump means doom for Democrats. After all, that's 78 million voters - more than enough to get him reelected.
The only way Democrats can beat him is to find a candidate that the people will respond to. Until today, Elizabeth Warren was a possibility. Today, Trump exposed her as both a fraud and an incompetent amateur.

..And he won't get 78 million votes this time either. He'll get something in the order of 65 million and the unnamed Democratic candidate will get what's left.
Will Trump win? I dunno. Depends on turn out. So far, the Dems don't have a platform and don't have a candidate, since Trump destroyed Warren.

You missed that point.

Nah. Trump has millions, but he has also SPENT millions. Probably hundreds of million.
Holding a mutual fund would not do that.

Well, that mutual fund would not have created any jobs would it.

and dont forget that even though trumps "approval" ratings are below 40%, they are still MUCH higher than those of congress which is at around 11% or so.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump

Meeting with “Chuck and Nancy” today about keeping government open and working. Problem is they want illegal immigrants flooding into our Country unchecked, are weak on Crime and want to substantially RAISE Taxes. I don’t see a deal!
9:17 AM - Nov 28, 2017
plus the fact that there are three LIES in this tweet.

in real life, no sane person would attempt to negotiate with someone who fights with lies. that's a no-win situation and a waste of time.

I applaud Pelosi and Schumer for not getting snared in his stupid trap. if they had showed up 45 could have concocted any number of scenarios to make them look bad, just as he did when they didn't show.

he's no better than a schoolyard bully...an entitled one. he's not fooling as many people as he thinks he is. of course the CULT will always stand by their bully-in-chief.

he decided the meeting would be a good photo op. it would have been nothing more, which he made quite obvious by that tweet.

I can't wait until America's reality nightmare show, Trumped Out, is canceled due to poor ratings and his fans, Trump's Chumps, skulk off into the distance ...far, far away!

The stupidity scale used to top out at "George W Bush." Now it goes much higher.

Trump and his Traitor Tots are facing some serious legal issues while their "real estate empire" (i.e. golf courses, resorts, and condos) is crumbling beneath them.

From what I can tell, the only ones not running in the red are the properties he frequents -- the DC hotel, Mar-a-Lago, and the two golf courses.

Not True:


Donald Trump has no problem getting big loans.
