POTUS 45

USA Trade Trap

Submitted by ub on

Whatever happened to the artful deal? Who claimed to be a star negotiator? Why does @POTUS like trade wars and is reportedly planning to impose up to 25% tariffs on imported steel and 10% on aluminum as his attempt to save US industry?

Tariffs may bring instant cheers but stoke industry full of fears of trade wars this year, rising costs and layoffs across #USA.

The fear is that it could raise costs on everything from airplanes to beer cans. The wider worry is the potential for retaliatory measures by other countries that could hurt exports and jobs.

Gridiron Dinner

POTUS went along for the ride with movers and shakers of the mainstream media he lashes out against at Washington’s annual Gridiron dinner last night.

A white-tie gala is the type of event he's shunned since taking office. But what was supposed to be a good-natured bread-breaking between the president and press could become a flashpoint if Trump, who has labeled reporters “fake news” and the enemies of the American people. His jokes may have rung true saying ‘I like chaos’

All Talk No Action

Let's talk about guns. While dozens of uniformed officers marched into Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, just one aspect of the heavy security as classes resumed for the first time since 17 students and teachers were killed by a troubled teenager with an AR-15, thrusting them into the center of the nation’s gun debate. @POTUS placates lawmakers at the @WhiteHouse to talk about gun laws following the Parkland, Florida Valentines Day massacre.

Hiring Best or Worst?

Has @POTUS been hiring the best people to represent the US and make America great? @realDonaldTrump promised his base he would hire the best people, so why does he keep hiring the worst and making mistakes?

He claimed to be self-funding by hiring the best, not the biggest donors... So what happened to his promises?

Trump promised to hire "... the best people, and repeated it several times, suggesting that whenever he keeps repeating something beware. Was it a mean-spirited trick, or a treat, is this one of his big ideas gone bust, or perhaps a bait and switch?

In the betting world, a winning wager involves selecting the horse that you think will finish the race in first place. The Republicans won US Government control with a majority rule in Congress and The White House.

With a place bet, you win if your selected horse finishes the race in either first or second place. The GOP put all their money on what they thought would be a winning horse with a well-known name and a face.

Elected vs Selected

An unqualified individual can be elected without the popular vote. We have seen this time and again in our democracy. When someone is selected, it usually signifies they're the very best person available for the job.

Donald John Trump was born June 14, 1946, and 70 years later won the election while losing the popular vote. However, he currently is the 45th and current President of the United States. #POTUS has been in office since January 20, 2017. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and became famous by an NBC TV Show.

@POTUS delivers prepared remarks on the tragedy in Parkland, Florida. The High School Shooting caused the deaths of too many, another 17. Was it a monologue on what happened when we already know what's going on. How many times did he mention guns in his response? 17: The number of kids murdered in a school shooting yesterday

What do you think is the problem? Will you opine? And what if anything is #Trump going to really do about it?
