Isn't Washington Post one of Trumps "Fake News" media BC? Some of the media over there are so anti Trump it isn't even worth clicking on because you know what you are going to get. The difference between Trump and conventional governments is Trump cuts through all the diplomatic bullshit that is long, slow looks like people are doing something but most often end with nothing being echieved. Just a lot of expensive meet and greets, back slapping and photo shoots and you are left scratching your head asking what did they actually achieve?

Trump gets on the front foot and makes things happen, traditional politicians focus on diplomatic bullshit aimed at trying to please everyone and conning the voters they are actually doing something, where most often they have achieved nothing.

When a government is elected they should be allowed to govern how they see fit. If people aren't happy with the results then they get the opportunity to turf them out at the next election. Abbott said as much yesterday when he said he would rather people vote for Labor than the independents so Labor could govern how they see fit and be judged on that. One thing I can't stand is politicians who think we are stupid and can't see past their bullshit.

And I guarantee you this, if Trump manages to build his wall and if the Democrats win the next election, they won't tear down that wall.

Xi Jingping is flying to Washington next week.For trade talks with President Trump.With the $4 to $1 Chinese trade surplus over the US.Premier Jingping is going to offer some type of concessions to Potus.
Yesterday China's produced the worst economic data in 3 decades.Most say most of China's problems are in there domestic economy.Wasting money in the South China Sea.Good to see these bullies have been put back in there box.

Spot on gtr their economy is running on debt, all economies do but the level of debt China is carrying is scary. Trump is THE ONLY ONE capable and with the balls to stand up to China. Heaven help us all if the LOSER democrats get their way over there.

That's what drives me crazy about all the Fake news.He is the only one addressing the Elephant in the room.

Well Fox News Hannity today was relentless in his criticism and examples of all the Fake News led mostly by CNN and the Democrats who are just anti anything Trump does or says because they are haters. He also tore Obama a new one and those media who Failed to hold him accountable for his failings.

You forgot the second part of that pitch ...... that Mexico would pay for the wall.

Not only has Mexico said stick that up your clacker, Trump was actually quoted as whispering to the Mexican President that to avoid making Trump look bad, he (Nieto) should just say he would pay, even if he had no intention to do so.

Another small fact from the WaPO:

Two years after taking the oath of office, President Trump has made 8,158 false or misleading claims, according to The Fact Checker’s database that analyzes, categorizes and tracks every suspect statement uttered by the president.

That includes an astonishing 6,000-plus such claims in the president’s second year.

Put another way: The president averaged nearly 5.9 false or misleading claims a day in his first year in office. But he hit nearly 16.5 a day in his second year, almost triple the pace.

While undoubtedly all politicians lie, Trump has taken it to industrial level bullshitting, and is happy to lie about his lies.

Well Fox News Hannity today...........

That's not Industrial level lying JS. That is OCD lying...….

He is still very popular in the USA. Everyone I have spoken to in the past 4 weeks loves him as president. They claim he has bought jobs back, improved production and got outcomes.
He will go down in history as someone that ran his country like a business and got things done.

Americans have always liked strong men throughout their history

Washington
Jackson
Taylor
Roosevelt number 1
Grant
Ike

were all soldiers and all Presidents. Trump has simply manipulated the same authoritarian thread in their psycho for his own ends.
