    Oh boy, here we go. After expressing a deep frustration with the US Judiciary Branch for daring to utilize its constitutionally derived powers to override his unconstitutional orders and threatening to break up the parts of it that he doesn't like, Trump apparently isn't happy with the fact that Congress isn't working fast enough to be a rubber stamp for his abysmal agenda.

    Of course, nobody could've saw this coming as tin-pot dictator wannabee Donald the Trump rose to power on the wings of help from a gullible electorate and their Russian allies. Well, nobody expect just about everybody who didn't vote for the the Whiner-in-Chief.

    Looks like all he needs now is his own Reichstag fire to enable his desire to continue burning the Constitution and get rid of those pesky other branches of government.

    Trump is now talking about consolidating his power
    Will he call himself Supreme Leader With Perfectly Normal-Sized Hands or stick with the ol' tried-and-true King Trump, Golfer of Golf, Frequent Vacationer, Lazy Slob, Eater of Beautiful Chocolate Cake, and Grabber of *******?

    Perhaps you hadn't noticed that the alt-left Obama sycophants didn't give a crap about Obama acting like a dictator with his phone and pen.

    But you don't seem to be at all bothered by the fact that Trump is acting even more like a dictator with his phone and pen, and yet you excoriate democrats about Obama who was FORCED by a republican congress that refused to work with democrats to solve the nations problems, preferring to implement a strategy of obstruction.

    But of course that was in "defense" of America and now the dems are "destroying" America because they won't work with trump. Amazing how you can just flip the switch and what was dictatorial, is now accepted practice by this president. A president that has demonstrated on more than one occasion his ignorance of what the constitution actually says, the complexity of the big issues, or how governing actually works.

    Not to mention that in 100 days in office he's spouted more lies, distortions and unsubstantiated accusations than the last President did in 8 years in office. And trumpettes are perfectly fine with the continuing fake news he promotes and the lies he can't help himself but spout.

    Kim J.U. fired another missile in defiance.

    DJ Trump will probably deal with it on Monday.

    There could be a missile strike soon.

    Pretty lame attempt at a red herring and/or false equivalency.

    Yeah, Obama was hog tied and dragged to his "phone and pen" and "forced" to act as a dictator. LMFAO!

    You alt-lefties will justify anything Obama did.

    The op is talking about what Trump is saying (I'd say doing, but doing anything outside his skill set). You are trying to make it about minions.

    Some will interpret what is said to fit their own agenda. The message was that Big Government is cumbersome. Not every debate in congress requires grandstanding and obstruction merely for the sake of partisan politics. Filibusters are not normal in the private sector yet business agreements still occur. Senate rules are quite arbitrary and can be changed.

    Nah, he is just slow to keep up. Trump capitalized on this mind set and will try his dictator move. That's when his supporters will get a rude awakening because that just can't be allowed to happen.

    Just wanted to inform you that your picture of Trump supporters holding their hands up came from a speech where Trump was asking something along the lines of "who would like to see jobs back come back to America?".

    Of course I know you won't care because the tired Leftist QQ of "everybody is a Nazi" has a much greater appeal to your bigotry-based confirmation bias than the truth does.

    Oh yeah I forgot according to Trumpettes fewer words make better laws. I couldn't stop laughing when spicer actually was proud of the comparison.
