Wow....the first black president who was accused of being a Muslim and not a citizen for years entering office has lower approval ratings than the white guys after WWII......I'm shocked!

If he was so great, he'd have had a great approval rating.

The numbers seem about right to me.

At least he's not as bad as Jimmy Carter, though.

There's 100,000 votes for the next Democrat. What a great issue!

Close enough:
 
How was Hillary's trip to the CIA? She got no ovation whatsoever.

I don't even know what Trumpists mean by "elitists". They use it apparently without irony. Do they know that Trump's cabinet is by several factors the richest in history? Perhaps "elitist" means "knows how to spell"? Yeah, THOSE assholes.

Hollywood? Seriously? I guess Trump really is the guy for you, because he too, cares only about ratings and what's on TV. "I'm going to vote to get rid of healthcare to stick it to millionaire movie stars! YEAH!"

And, of course, the only party that elects celebrities IS THE FUCKING REPUBLICANS. Ronald Reagan, Sonny Bono and Arnold Schwartzenegger ring a bell? Oh, and DONALD FUCKING TRUMP, reality TV star?

SAD!

No. Elitist means labeling people who don't wear $15,000 pearl necklaces and $12,000 pantsuits as "Deplorables". Elitist means labeling an entire voting block as "Bitter Clingers", and then not expecting a backlash. Elitist means you wear some whore dress to a Leftist Hollywood awards show....and then have the gall and arrogance to go lecture America in a women's protest about how oppressed women are.

Elitism is caring more about your popularity ratings than about running the country and listening to average Americans, Obama.

Whereas Trump cares fuck all about those things, and would probably be okay with wearing a pair of jeans from Walmart.

You keep mistaking money for Elitism. Elitism is about far more than money. It's about how you present yourself and talk to the people. It's about how you make an effort to relate to them. It's about the language you use, and the attitude you present.

The only thing I saw in Trump's campaign that displayed his wealth was his jet. Whereas Hillary wore clothes that would take years of savings for the average person to buy, and then got the endorsements of Hollywood; people who have about as much in common with the average American as Bill Gates does with poverty. And it showed in the way that they spoke with such arrogance to the people and the media.

I'm supposed to take the endorsements of Lady GaGa and Miley Cyrus seriously? I'm supposed to care about what they say?

Get the fuck outta my face with that.

Congratulations. This kind of nonsense is exactly what got Trump elected.

But she could get the same ovation as Trump anywhere she wants if she was as pathetic and hired a traveling troupe of sycophants.

HAHAHAHA.

I think that's a lie.

But keep touting it.

(WASHINGTON) – The following is a statement from Teamsters General President James P. Hoffa on President Donald Trump signing an executive order to formally withdraw the United States from the Trans Pacific Partnership.

“Today, President Trump made good on his campaign promise to withdraw the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership. With this decision, the president has taken the first step toward fixing 30 years of bad trade policies that have cost working Americans millions of good-paying jobs.

“The Teamsters Union has been on the frontline of the fight to stop destructive trade deals like the TPP, China PNTR, CAFTA and NAFTA for decades. Millions of working men and women saw their jobs leave the country as free trade policies undermined our manufacturing industry. We hope that President Trump’s meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto on Jan. 31 opens a real dialogue about fixing the flawed NAFTA.

“We take this development as a positive sign that President Trump will continue to fulfill his campaign promises in regard to trade policy reform and instruct the USTR to negotiate future agreements that protect American workers and industry.”

Green font.

If he wins over the unions, the democrats will lose an important constituency. Though they already mostly lost the membership.

I'm happy to see the progressives stomped on. Maybe the Phoenix will be what the people actually want.

So I guess I didn't hear on NPR that
(a) Unions were always opposed to trade deals
(b) Trump is meeting with Unions
(c) Union opposition to the TPP was why Hillary Clinton also said she would not support it.

You know why it wasn't ratified? Because, despite majority Republican support, many Democrats in congress were opposed to it. I guess you've abandoned the free trade wing of the Republican Party, huh Denny?

I also heard on NPR how Australia (one of the signees) is open to China just stepping in and taking the USA's place in the deal.
