"We're not going to solve our problems if we get distracted by carnival barkers and sideshows"

"We're not going to solve our problems if we get distracted by carnival barkers and sideshows" (Barack Obama, 27th April 2011, in reference to Donald Trump)

-------------------------------------
President Obama's statement back in April of 2011 reads like an uncanny prediction now.

In 18 years since Naders run, what has been accomplished by attacking the Dem party from the left?

I am counting from 1999 to present since Nader declared before 2000.

I've heard a few arguments for attacking Democrats from the left that all seem bad.

Does anyone think the country has been "pushed to the left" by the actions of those trying to do so? Has the Democratic party been pushed to the left?

If you can't answer yes to those questions, isn't attacking the Democratic Party from the left an epic and unadulterated failure?

And why is it that those folks are allowed to attack the Democratic Party from the left but if we respond to them in kind, some folks accuse us of being divisive? Why do some folks here think that is OK?

The "oh, Trump made everyone crazy, but it's just a dumb tweet" defenses have begun.
Those defenses are stupid and irresponsible. /1

He does not understand his own legislative initiatives. He has no interest in foreign affairs. But he has time to tweet dumb videos. /6

Yes Trump, Hume, Sean it would be a crime, a serious one.

I'm not as good as EarlG at these memes but it gets the point across!

Wow, Comey's opening words indicate to me he is going to unload on Trump

If I were Trump or other members of the administration I would be VERY concerned right now.

Trump intends to reverse Obama policy on Cuba after his company violated the embargo

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/report-trump-to-reverse-obama%E2%80%99s-cuba-policy/ar-BBBDYmH

The above article doesn't talk about it but Trump companies had been cited for violating the embargo when it was in place. Now, as the article notes, he intends to reverse Obamas improvement of relations with Cuba.

Trump is ever the hypocrite
