U.S President: Donald Trump - Page 178

It’s not looking very promising for the Trump Admin, down the road. I’ve read various legal analysis and that Meuller will eventually get Trump on charges of interfering with a Sitting Presidents (Barack Obama) Foreign policy, during the UN vote for Israeli settlements. This is not linked to collusion at all but what Trump May have done when he was President-Elect.

No way would interfering with Obama’s Israel policy be enough to get Trump IMO

His childish spoilt child tweets have been so so bad over the last week or so. I am still amazed the man(child) manages to tie his show laces in the morning.

He's getting his agenda plenty of publicity and it's that which got him elected. He couldn't give a fig what we think about him, he cares what makes him popular there.

I think he cares very much about what people think about him. I suspect that’s why he reacts so much to criticism and the weird ‘Man of the Year’ thing.

Also any news that doesn't agree with him or runs a story that he doesn't like becomes 'fake news'

We saw that from the word go, when he had a hissy fit and sent his press officer out to claim he had the best attended inauguration ever, when this clearly wasn't the case.

Actually I misread Osems post. He meant UK/USA populations.

And I still think you're right, he cares who ever is saying something bad about him no matter where they are. Richard Branson said the donald had a revenge list of all the people who had wronged him, anyone else that was said about and I'd think it was a joke but with the donald I'm not so sure, thin skin and massive ego near the most powerful job in the world probably aren't a good idea

I had to fire General Flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI. He has pled guilty to those lies. It is a shame because his actions during the transition were lawful. There was nothing to hide!
5:14 PM - Dec 2, 2017

Analysts say if Mr Trump knew that Mr Flynn had lied to the FBI, at a time when he appeared to pressure then-FBI director James Comey to drop the agency's investigation into the former general, it could amount to obstruction of justice by the president.

Matthew Miller, a former Obama administration Justice Department official, said in a tweet: "Oh my god, he just admitted to obstruction of justice. If Trump knew Flynn lied to the FBI when he asked Comey to let it go, then there is your case."

Sources close to the president told the Washington Post that the tweet had been drafted by Mr Trump's personal lawyer, John Dowd, who later apologised and said he should have been more careful with his language. The White House has yet to comment.

It’s getting messy...

Wonder if all this will serve as a warning to those who seem umbilically connected to social media. Sooner or later you're likely going to post something which you come to greatly regret.

Especially if you’re President of the United States.

Well yes, but he's not the only one who's doing this - it's becoming more common and I find it inexplicable. The potential for problems and even disaster seems huge but I say that as someone who refuses to be be part of the social media universe. I can fully understand politicians wanting to get their message across but conducting 'business' and even 'diplomacy' in this ad hoc manner seems truly bizarre.

Wow! Awks as they say on social media!
With even those Trump advocates on this forum showing signs of buyer's remorse, this is definitely his most challenging time.

Me remorse ?

No, you missed the point I have raised from the beginning. I’m totally glad it wasn’t her who won and I will always call out hypocrisy, where I see it.

Despite the “deflection” Trump is being accused off, there is still many questions and hidden scandals coming from the DNC and the totally Crooked Hillary, just look at the reports, even coming from Washington Post that there was FBI agents/lawyers who had political motivations for Hillary and stopped short of investigating her properly and also sending Anti-Trump text messages and they are involved in the Russia probe, WTF is the impartiality?
