Future Speculation

It will be fine

All the stories I'm seeing is they didn't do anything to stop it and that was the Washington Post, not FOX News. Maybe Obama was getting payback for what the Clintons said about him in 2008.
What steps has Trump taken to ensure it doesn't happen again? Seems derilict in his duty to protect the nation to do nothing.

Let's see if he does as much damage as Obama did in 4 years. Doubt he'll get 8 unless economy goes through the roof.
I doubt he'll make 8 either. I'm pretty sure his ass will explode well before then, as fat as it's getting. Too many servings of that "most beautiful chocolate cake you ever saw" is what I'm thinking.

Plus he gets two scoops of ice cream when all the others at his table get but one. Not to mention he tested "positive" for every single item on his personal "physician's" checklist. The doc who proclaimed Donnie would be the healthiest president there ever was. Which is why he opted to take a golf cart on a 700 yard journey at the G6 summit whilst all the other heads of state walked it. Certainly wouldn't want to tax a perfectly healthy heart! ;)

You may be on to something!

That's an interesting thing about military bases. We were in Sierra Vista, AZ for awhile, home of Ft.Huachuca, Army Intelligence H.Q.. Had excellent Korean, Thai, and Vietnamese there.
Go back far enough and French, German, Australian, and even a few Japanese as well. It's too bad the current boogeyman were fighting is so fundamentally different than us. Meeting a nice farm girl in North Kandahar or University student in Baghdad is further from impossible than impossible is. No GI's are bringing home Arab women. Opening kebeb joints, or veterinarian clinics. Hell, I didn't even get to blare Creedence Clearwater Rev. while riding in a huey chopper.

He doesn't have to make 8. He won when the world counted him out. I would not even be surprised if he does not seek re election. Or seeks it, and wins in a landslide in 2020. Ushering in a new level of enlightenment. One thing is for certain. When you are 71 and have been swooping Eastern European models half your age, your whole life...you get 2 scoops, and they let you grab em by the you know what. It will take time, but look what is already happening to people like Rick Perry, Teddy Cruz, Rand Paul. It was hard for them to get on board because they were beta male losers. But the Trumpening as I like to call it. Has them growing a pair. Walking with chest out. Some harsh low hanging fruit critics from the rank and file will be converted as well.

Reagan is the gold standard to me. I want my president to act presidential. Those guys fall in line because they have their own ambitions. Truly want him to succeed but I also want a unifier. Polarization is killing us.

Obama had 8 years, Trump has had 5 months. Geez.
Now that's just dumb. The Russians weren't known to be interfering until just a couple months before the election.

But if you want to go there, Bush had 8 years to fix any problems Clinton may have started to prevent the crash that repubs like to blame on loosened banking regulations. In that case, Bush did have 8 years, and really did do nothing.

Reagan 'acted' presidential because he was an actor. In reality, he was an old man slowly losing his marbles to a terrible disease. He was handled by experts around him, and was still able to memorize his lines and repeat them to the public.

Speaking of Obama, appears he knew of Russian meddling months before election. Why didn't he put a stop to it?
The Obama administration chose not to do what the Russians were doing and that was to risk becoming a disruptive force in the election by publicly disclosing the Russian interference. Instead used the best counter measures and retaliation available at the time. So why are you having a hissy fit over this matter ? You're going to Europe remember? If America is so near and dear to your patriotic heart then simply do the most unselfish and patriotic thing you can do for your country. Leave. GO PLEASE.....AND DON"T COME BACK. Why? After your hero Trump disembowels Medicare and Medicaid there will be no public resources available to take care of you if you were to come back unless you can pay the entire bill out of your own pocket and you and I both know that you don't have the money to do that now let alone in the future. If you don't have enough money to live in this country now, you sure as hell won't have it when you get back.

Ah, but Obama was colluding with Putin in 2012. It was under his watch that Putin grew into such a threat. Own it.

Man I'm sorry, but your posts define hissy fits. My money goes twice as far and then some overseas. Don't worry about me.
