Huh? She certainly didn't teach him much about tweeting or populist rhetoric... which I'd say are his two greatest political strengths.

Although do you read his twitter feed lion? Something is going on and he's really struggling. Imagine having this great dexterity on Twitter, where you can just slay your political enemies like Lying Ted and Crooked Hillary... and then when you're back is against the wall and you really need to call on that strength it totally fails you. I almost feel sorry for him.

T learned about politics and rhetoric from Hillary... the tweeting is his way of spreading what he learned.
I don't read tweets nor do I send tweets.
Can tweets be erased like emails? Let's ask Hillary...
I don't feel sorry for Trump or Hillary...I feel bad for the country that these two were the best we could muster up...
I take his court picks and rolling back of executive orders...
Quite a circus DC...from left to right and back again...Pelosi and Shumer and Trump...lord help us all

That she deleted her emails came out before the election and I think it's fair to say once the public knew it did her no favors. Beyond that, the FBI investigated and decided there was no crime. This being America that's sort of how we handle these types of questions. Not sure how that relates to Trump... two years in and we still haven't seen his tax returns. And as for the FBI investigating... despite him calling his old associates "rats", the FBI is locking people up and still investigating.

As for court picks and executive orders? Wonder how much of a win those are going to feel like if the economy keeps heading toward bear territory, or some of those "rats" end up giving evidence of sinister ties to Russian or Saudi money. Don't answer yet... let's see where the DOW is and the Muller investigation is in 6 months.
 
Did the Tenacious one just post that they (the liberal loons) haven't seennTrumps tax returns? He might want to ask a certain wannabe journalist named Rachel about that...
 
Trump says the Treasury is taking in 'MANY billions of dollars' from the tariffs on China. The only problem is that US companies are paying the price.

But Trump's celebration doesn't take into account who is effectively paying that money.

Chinese exporters do not pay the tariffs. Rather, US importers pay the cost of the duties when the goods come into American ports. Howard Gleckman, a senior fellow at the Tax Policy Center, explained the process in a September article about the mechanics of tariffs.

"A tariff is a tax on imported goods. Despite what the President says, it is almost always paid directly by the importer (usually a domestic firm), and never by the exporting country," Gleckman wrote. "Thus, if the US imposes a tariff on Chinese televisions, the duty is paid to the US Customs and Border Protection Service at the border by a US broker representing a US importer, say, Costco."

"Tariffs are a tax on consumers, primarily, though some of the hit might be borne by Chinese exporters, forced to accept lower margins. But for the president to boast that the U.S. is 'taking in billions' on tariffs makes no sense at all," Shepherdson wrote. "The ostensible objective of the tariffs is to force China to negotiate a new trading relationship with the US, not to raise money — from U.S. consumers! — for the federal government."

Too bad people don't see ACA, Education, and Real Estate subsidies the same way they see tariffs. Maybe they do. Who knows?

The court picks are all solid and the executive orders that have been rolled back were Obama's legislative signature's not Congress.
Sinister ties to Russia...conspiracy and collusion ? Oswald alone shot Kennedy. We landed men on the moon. The CIA didn't imploded the World Trade Center on 9-11
FBI director Comey decided it, Hillary's conduct, wouldn't be prosecuted...that's not his job.
Go back and listen to Comey and all the reasons it should have been prosecuted.

Service members have to serve for 3 years to get the GI Bill. That is if they live that long. If they die on active duty their dependents might be able to get the GI bill. See the difference between the GI bill and the aforementioned entitlements. You should be sorry. Coward.
