Just saw Trump on CNN here at work...

With his disgusting "tough" talk. Saying how the Democrats won't do anything about terror in this country because we're "obstructionists" and we don't care about the people of this country and we are too weak, blah, blah, blah. How he's going to be "tough" and "smart" and "quick" about it. How we are too "politically correct" and he's not going to do that. Ugh, it's sickening!

God, he so full of shit, but you just know his groupies are eating it up out there. I just hope he goes down so hard that he never gets back up again.

Faisal Shahzad was a naturalized US citizen. He was born in Pakistan.

He attempted to blow up a car bomb in the middle of Times Square. It just didn't go off. It's estimated it would have caused at least 40 deaths if it had gone off.

Mohamed Osman Mohamud another naturalized citizen. Born in Somalia.

Another attempted car bomb.

Boston Marathon Bombings. Chechen immigrants.

I could go on, but you get the idea.

Not to mention the Vegas mass shooting.

Obviously, tweets don't keep us safe!

NO credibility whatsoever on ANYTHING! This is an absent presidency.

In the old day, we'd say he's just phonin' it in - between private golf club events.

what's his excuse for Republicans getting anything done. Though I'm not even sure he has any kind of meaningful/helpful solution, of course.

and not on purpose, is destroying the Republican Party.

It's gotten to the point where the rest of the world considers the POTUS words completely irrelevant. That is the effect when you get all that bluster and nonsense every day. Sadly, this also means that no one can take it at face value when/if he actually has something important to say. The majority of Americans and the rest of world sees Trump for what he is, a thin-skinned, ignorant, liar who can't be trusted to lead a latrine detail much less the free world.

Who says anything meaningful and helpful these days? Forums, comment sections, Twitterers, and Facebook have all made finding solutions and answers to the world's problems almost impossible.

He can't just say "we've had great success with ISIS," he has to trash the Obama administration and note how much better his administration is doing. And it's all bullshit.
