I can just imagine rooms of sneaky Repubs drafting all those Executive Orders Trump is signing. Every day more and more Executive Orders. Get rid of ab*rtions, build a wall, get rid of healthcare, get rid of free trade, get rid of TPP, stop scientists and government workers from talking, build a pipeline through Indian sacred territory, etc. etc.

Does Trump even read all these Executive Orders or understand what's in them or is he just a front man puppet for career Repubs??

I have better ones:

- Claiming he is for open and government and free speech while going after whistle blowers and prosecuting reporters who refuse to reveal sources.

- Promising to close Gitmo, and not doing it.

- Accepting the Nobel peace prize for doing nothing. On that one he at least admitted he didn't deserve it.

- Caving in to the Republicans and lobbyists on health care.

Earthy you're so right, he's drunk on power. He's obsessed with the number of votes he didn't get almost three months ago, and the size of the crowd at the inauguration. If Trump really believes there was widespread voter fraud, then there should be a new election.

It looks like he's trying to isolate the U.S. from the rest of the world, building walls, limiting freedom of speech of government employees, the press, the scientists. He's basically gutted the Environmental Protection agency today as if regulations for pollution, carbon emissions is a bad thing. He's making man made climate change a forbidden topic. No offence but I truly believe he is deranged.

It seems you agree with "alternative facts"

As you use them against Obama, and then to support Trump.

Leaving the country better off than it was given to him, is not about leaving it perfect. So yes, you can find some "alternative facts". to support yourself.
But the fact is...... no matter how Obama has left it...... The reality is it's better than he found it.

Denying the improvements in our economy, in lieu of other things...
Is just an "alternative facts" to deny the fact.

There is a long standing historical precedence and legally recognized VALID concept known as "Mitigating Factors". Ask any lawyer and they'll confirm this. Kelly Ann Conway is not a lawyer so we can excuse her for not using this term, but Mitigating Factors is synonymous with "alternative facts".

So Kelly Ann Conway was right.

GBU all,

Look at how many people died in Quebec when a train load of South Dakota crude blew up.

It was over 40, and leveled the downtown of the place.

I wish we could go renewable overnight, but it's not going to happen.

In the meantime, pipelines are the cheapest and safest way to move the stuff.
