Bully POTUS Pulpit

Submitted by ub on

The Bully Pulpit was a phrase coined after Republican President Theodore Roosevelt utilized it in the White House.

The presidency is a powerful platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. @realdonaldtrump has apparently been using this tactic with some success until one day when it finally catches up with him.

From trade wars with US closest allies to attempting to tame China, North Korea, and perhaps Russia, Trump is convinced that bullying pays off in huge dividends. However, FLOTUS, who hasn't been seen in public for weeks claims she doesn't condone it.

With Friends Like US

Who needs enemies? Prepare for an international trade war that may possibly destroy the global economy, Thanks to POTUS.

The US has decided to impose tariffs on allies after all was said and done, our word was worth little or none. These imposed tariffs are taxes on imports or exports between sovereign states. Do they equally apply to other nations like Russia and China?

Unhappy Memorial Day

Submitted by ub on

On Memorial Day the USA remembers all soldiers who have died during an act of military service. Today, many businesses offer freebies and special discounts to veterans and active military.

However, as politicians tell their constituents how much they care about America and that they support #USA military veterans.

Why the are so many of them suffering from all the sacrifices they have made to protect our democratic form of government?

These are the sad facts and figures that should cause many of us grave concern before we hit the beach and enjoy parades.

Trump Torches

In the past 3 months, @POTUS has reportedly managed to antagonize or piss off many international leaders and it appears that his shoot from the hip hits just keeps on coming. During 90 days of nuclear tough talk, Trump has upset friend and foe.

Are the leaders and the people of the following nations scratching their collective heads and wondering how it came to this?

Passing Gas

Why has the Republican-led Congress and The White House given a pass to extraordinarily high gasoline prices?

In case you have not noticed, gas prices are going through the roof just in time to hurt American travelers for the Memorial Day Weekend. Is our so-called leadership prepared to do anything about it?

The huge jump in driving costs is likely to fuel a wave of economic anger across the #USA just in time for the midterm elections. According to statistics, the average American driver will be paying $200 extra for gasoline.

Backasswards?

North Korea, officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, is a country in East Asia constituting the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. Pyongyang is the capital and largest city. This communist nation is geographically located next to Russia and China.

What happened to Trump's Nobel Peace Prize that he claims everyone thinks he deserves? He sent a bombshell letter that hints of War. Why has POTUS decided to unilaterally setback the world saying again we'll see what happens? The president thought he had the enemy by the heels and turned out there are no deals.

Government Obstructionists Party

Submitted by ub on

Why does the GOP continually insist on counterproductive practices of deliberately preventing a planned political process? Have Republicans lost their way and are they one step closer to tearing up the USA? Why would they be allowed to succeed?

Republicans have looked the other way on Trump’s scandals and misdeeds, ignoring their majority oversight responsibilities and undermining the entire idea of checks and balances. Our forefathers established our nation under God to embrace a mindset that all men and women are created equal and that no one is above the law.
