I'm curious

Has any other President started off his first weeks in office by signing EO like this assclown has?

I don't remember Obama doing it, nor bush the lessor nor the big dog.

I can capitalize the word President when writing of the Presidency, because I respect the office, but when writing of the Presidency in relation to tRump it will alway be pResident as it was for many of us here during the dick and w's reign of terror. Just so I'm clear about this important detail concerning this dipshit they call the pResident today


Peace to all

1. Trump Is Running This Like It Is His Company....

he hasn't grasped the concept of what a President is or does.

Also - his Party - the Repugs are letting him get away with this. They are as much at fault. We need to keep associating the Repug Party with Trump because that is the way we will take back the House and Senate in 2018. Taking back the House and Senate is the only way we will be able to control Trump. Trump will be with us for 4 years. The Repugs won't push for impeachment because they are afraid of what he would do to them should they try.
He knows where the skeletons are buried and he will take down the Party with him. He will lie if he has to to take them down if they go after him.

Our only hope is to have a massive vote turnout in 2018 - so they can't cheat. We need to take back the House and Senate.

This is what our focus should be on now and not get distracted by Trump's and the Repugs antics.

2. I suspect he thinks his signing ceremonies are photo ops and good PR.

He has no idea what the fuck he's doing, but he wants to make sure his puss is on the television screen as often as possible.

4. Record number of executive orders/actions/memorandums...

President Trump signed a record number of executive orders and presidential memoranda his first week in office — a total of 14 compared to President Obama's 13. But something is noticeably absent from those directives — ethics for the executive branch.

Plus the 3 whatever he signed today.
