To me Trump peaked with his speech at the UN, possibly the most positive day of his presidency. Pretty, pretty good. Before and after, not so much.

On the night of the election I resigned myself to "hoping for the best", and now his either real or perceived instability just makes me nervous. For the people who thought Obama was divisive leader, well, you ain't seen nothing yet.

As promised, Trump is certainly shaking things up, like a centrifuge.

Trump did not scrap the deal. After Obama made the deal, Congress passed a law requiring that the president certify to Congress every 90 days that the sanctions relief given under the deal is providing proportionate benefits to the United States and that Iran is complying with the agreement.

Trump is not making the certification to Congress, but is keeping the deal in place.

Quote:
President Donald Trump announced Friday that he will decertify the Iran nuclear deal but will not urge Congress to immediately reimpose nuclear-related sanctions on the country, instead calling for new legislation that could trigger penalties down the line.
In short, he just punted the ball to Congress and said the deal needs some work, so fix it.

Your post reminds me that instability and partisanship is in the eye of the beholder. The same could equally be said about Obama from any number of us.

What does race have to do with it? Why insert white or black into any discussion not relevant to race? It just makes you look racist Dan, and yes, I'm being serious. Besides, last I looked Weinstein isn't liked by any "deplorables."

The wider the gap between us and the democrat, the better.
Who wants unity with those who would see out our country?

Poor Vince Foster. When the Clintons told him they had his back, he didn't realize it was with a knife.

You accept the other two premises, though?

Vince Foster was no boy scout, he knew full well exactly who these people were and what they were capable of in the past as well as the future right?

Gus,

If you only keep to yourself and a few friends, how the heck are you going to hear what a cross section of the country is thinking. The networks have been proven to be complete garbage, you only needed good battery's in your remote to hear what you want to hear right? It is like the XFiles quote from the series "the truth is out there".
