    Yet Donald Trump still found the time to take a little vacation in the midst of all this while flapping his giant cake hole on the internet in a 3 day tirade of idiocy and hypocrisy.

    As the link says, Trump went to Bedminister on the 21st, right after a brief interlude playing President at the UN.

    Today, Trump revealed on this Twitter account that he has just returned back to the White House.

    The GOP is trying to scrape together votes for their DeathCare bill as well as starting to gear up for their huge Debt Creation Program, which they're calling tax cuts.

    Personally, I'm glad that he's not lifting a finger to actually do actually do his job. It makes it much harder for the GOP to get anything done. However, if he is that incapable of performing his presidential duties, he should just resign in disgrace before he's impeached.

    I'd say good riddance, stay in NJ for the rest of your term, but we know it wouldn't keep his moronic tweets from flooding the internet. Now Trump is on this "patriotic" fling and seems to be trying to pick fights with pretty much everyone in the NFL.

    You can tell when things are going bad for Trump and he needs a distraction. He logs on to the ol' Twitter account and starts rambling like a 13 year old. Is it his usual desperate attempt to get the attention that he craves? Is it that he's continuing to crack from all the pressure, or is he trying to take attention away from the constant reports that Mueller is closing in on his corrupt regime?

    We all know - whatever Trump does, you will disagree, in the most petulant manner possible.
    Such is the way of the frothing hyper-partisan.

    And we all know that Trump could literally take a **** on the American Flag while eating borsch on national TV, and the Trump fans would still have his back..

    All about the Jones Act, an obscure shipping law that some say is stalling Puerto Rico’s recovery
    September 27,`17 - This post has been updated with comments from a congressman who will be holding an emergency hearing Thursday aimed at defending the Jones Act, which shipping advocates say is not the reason Puerto Rico's recovery has stalled.

    Translation: Leftists once again attempted to push radical nation-hating liberalism along Politically Correct lines down the nation's throat in regards to spoiled players taking a knee during the national anthem and Donald Trump rammed their nascent Marxism up their keisters; and now leftists regret having tried the ploy and are looking to divert attention from THEIR massive political screw-up; a screw-up that make nation-hating leftists everywhere look very, very bad in the eyes of the rest of the nation. This OP in other words is the leftist version of "Look! It's a squirrel!"

    The best way of dealing with this problem is moving all 4 millions plus voting US citizens from PR to the red states.

    Puerto Rico is being taken care of as fast as the circumstances and situation is allowing. There's nothing we can do about North Korea with its mad man in charge. The key there is China and China is unwilling to do anything about North Korea or its mad puppet.

    The protests, they occurred in a sports arena where we usually turn on the TV to watch to get away from the hard realities of life, the daily grind, politics and lose ourselves in the world of sports for a couple of hours before returning to the real world. I think most of us if we want to watch protests, demonstrations, receive a dose of politics come to sites like this one, turn on the news or one of the nightly political talk shows. What most of don't want is to tune on a football game and see politics on display. That's not what we turned on the TV to watch. We want to root for our team politics free and enjoy our couple of hours away from the real world.

    This is a feud between Trump, pro-Trumpers and the NFL, million dollar players, billionaire team owners. They need to take their feud someplace else, off the field of play. Take it where it belongs, a march through the streets, a protest rally, someplace else. This feud between moneyed elitist is asinine. Oh how I wish Trump would have kept his big mouth shut and the players have a bit of respect for those who wish to leave the real world for a couple of hours in the sports world.

    Remember all those times that Donald J. Trump was pissing and whining and complaining about how Obama was playing golf instead of dealing with the "NYC Ebola breakout", visiting Louisiana after the oil spill, getting a marine out of Mexico (I thought Trump didn't like people who were captured anyway?), talking to Congress about Syria, dwelling on a beheaded journalist, and so on? Yes, so do I.

    https://www.sbnation.com/golf/2017/3/27/15073086/donald-trump-tweets-barack-obama-golf

    Donald J. Trump is without question the biggest hypocrite to ever take the office of President of the United States - but his loyal fan base doesn't have the intellectual capacity to see that, and even in they did, they don't have the honesty to admit it.

    We've sent the military to rebuild Puerto Rico.

    The remaining military needs to be sent to NK, to fix that problem.

    The disloyal, immature protestors and the NFL should be ignored.

    We get told by the Right that "thug" refers to criminals of all colors and isn't a racist term.

    But here we see thug used to refer to athlete protestors who are black. It would appear the truth has come out.

    Tell me, didn't Trump actually criticize Obama for playing golf, saying that he wouldn't have time for things like that if he were president?

    Or is it petulant to criticize Trump for things he has actually said and done?
