That press conference with the White House Doctor, was a disgrace, full of liberal vultures for Journalists, fishing for things they hoped were wrong with the President.

Afterwards, there was lots of accusations flying about that the Doctor was lying or covering up something. This was same doc Obama had and he trusted him. One pathetic Journalist said they didn’t believe Trump’s weight and would Trump jump on some Scales, in front of the press to prove how much he weighs. Their 25th Amendment hopes, were evaporating fast.

Not sure it proves sanity though? :erm:
I thought this comment by the doctor was interesting
Quote:
“It is called genetics ... ” Jackson said. “Some people have just great genes. I told the president that if he had a healthier diet over the last 20 years, he might live to be 200 years old.”
I have to admit I am pleased that he passed the MOCA test.

Yeah it's good he passed. Given some of his Tweets and his odd diversions on policies it was a question people had in mind. Those things still concern me but at least it's not because of a clinical diagnosis.

Also the 25th amendment talk should be put away. People need to be careful about the precedents they set. Once this is used once it will be on the table for the next President and then we'll get every side trying to get rid of the President using it. It's like when the Republicans held up the Supreme Court appointment for over a year until they were in the White House. Yeah, well done, but now that's standard practise forever more and it's one regressive weapon in American politics, one more dysfunction of the system.

Talking of dysfunctions, will there be a U.S Government shut down over the ailing DACA deal?

Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon has struck a deal to speak with special counsel Robert Mueller and his team investigating Russia's meddling in the 2016 election.

Mr Bannon, who was recently disavowed by President Donald Trump, will discuss his time with the Trump campaign and White House directly with the investigators, and will bypass questioning in front of a grand jury.

Mr Mueller's team had secured a subpoena to compel Mr Bannon to testify, which could have forced him to speak with the grand jury.

who was it who said Facts are meaningless. You could use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true!

I think 'sycophant' has the potential to be employed in a description of him, perhaps.

Personally, I think the fact people have been saying Trump is not 'fit' to be President has been taken rather literally. The Trump administration has acted on the poor choice of words to prove he is 'fit' physically and cognitively.

However, I think the mass populous and the media may have been better questioning if Trump was 'the correct person, or poses the correct personality' to be President, rather than using the term 'fit', which can be taken a multitude of ways.

Although some may argue that it wouldn't make any difference to how he conducts himself in the role, in my opinion Trump shows multiple signs of NPD all over the place. This disorder would absolutely lead him to make seemingly odd choices and demands, as well as exhibit characteristic traits like over-reactions and denial of fault, where others can plainly see his errors of judgement and lack of empathy or responsibility.

I for one, believe that it is this personality that means Trump is not the correct person to fulfil the role of President. He is too egocentric, self absorbed, grandiose and in dire need for admiration, along with his complete lack of understanding of other people's views or feelings. He surrounds himself with people who are yes men. Those who fall short soon see themselves out of a job.

Which leads us straight back to the Doctor who conducted Trump's fitness evaluation. It may be argued that he is also a yes man and is doing whatever Trump has told him to do as an act of self-preservation. He doesn't want to lose his job. And if he were outspoken about Trump in the 'wrong way', I think he would be. Thus, he would be a sycophant.

Indeed. The US is over-rated esp. if you're poor and/or the wrong colour. But you do have the right to shoot each other, so that's all good...

Re: President Trump & U.S Election 2016 Investigation
 
As federal government anxiously awaits Congress's decision on the spending bill, a possible divergence has arisen between Trump and Kelly on the Mexican wall
Quote:
Trump’s chief of staff disowns pledge on Mexico wall
John Kelly told a private meeting of Hispanic members of Congress that “certain things are said during the campaign that are uninformed”. It was wrong to think that “a concrete wall from sea to shining sea” was going to be built, the retired Marine general added. “One thing is to campaign, another thing is to govern — it’s really hard.”
The remarks came as Washington edged towards a shutdown of the US government. Mr Trump aligned himself with immigration hardliners last night, rubbishing a proposed compromise spending bill as “very, very weak”. Congress has until midnight tomorrow to pass a spending bill to prevent much of the federal government grinding to a halt.

Out of interest, do those here who support Trump do so because of his policies or because they think he was the lesser of two evils?
