Trump is quite the historian.....

Your hero....and Frederick Douglas is doing great job too! What a bunch of morons.
....and Frederick Douglas is doing great job too! What a bunch of morons.
Don't forget all 57 states!
WV was a democrat state until Clinton years, now they are Republican. Protectionist, America first, white nationalism sentiment buys that state everytime.....well, unless you're Joe Kennedy
Has anyone seen Obama's college transcripts yet? Maybe they're hiding in one of the 7 secret states. [roll]Not realizing the Andrew Jackson wasn't alive during the Civil War is way less embarrassing than saying there are 57 states, but you guys keep doing what you do, it's entertaining.
It might be if it were only one statement ... but it's just the latest in a long line of statements that show how ignorant Trump is about ...... well ..... everything.
Without saying "I'm ignorant" he has essentially admitted that himself. "who knew healthcare could be so complicated?", everybody knew it was complicated but it seemed easy to him when he knew nothing at all. After learning a little, suddenly it is complicated. He was completely ignorant when he was saying it would be easy
"after listening for 10 minutes I started to understand" ... admitting he had no real clue about the NK and China relationship
"I miss my old life, being president is hard" ... meaning, "I really had no idea what being president was going to entail"
Clearly what Obama was mentioning was his travel schedule, so instead of saying he visited all 50 states and 7 of them twice, he boiled the statement down to having visited 57 states. Trump's statements aren't just little mistakes like that, but rather insight into his complete ignorance on how the government works, our history, and our relationship to the rest of the world.
Has anybody seen Trump's tax returns yet?
With the lunacy that comes out of his mouth daily, I don't even care about his tax returns .... I want to see his SAT scores.
You guys nominated and elected a Marxist TWICE and championed as the tore away at the fabric of this great nation. You then nominated a rape enabling "it takes a village" big govt socialist and NOW you want to whine that the right reacted the way they did, give me a break [eyeroll].
And he always doubles down on his gaffes, as if it adds credibility to a losing situation.

"You guys" put a majority of corrupt lawmakers in power that created an almost impenetrable barrier of muck and slime on our government (of course the left did as well). A Congress and a President that cut taxes and increased spending while sending us to War in two nations. Not exactly fiscally responsible government, and FOR LONGER THAN EIGHT YEARS NOW you want to whine about how the left reacted. Give me a mo fo break!
I don't think Milo necessarily is, but he certainly feeds and earns off of a racist subset. AKA - the Alt - Right
But you can through out "you guys" all you want, right? Cause that's the whole nation...those that agree with you and those that don't, right?
She's their token cheerleader. She got paid to make the movement seem to have legitimacy. Once she failed to serve that purpose, they cut her loose.
I am not part of those "you guys" you're speaking of. You've got your wires crossed ... go figure.
And your statement doesn't come close to addressing my post at all ... you have nothing to address, no defense of what was stated, so you have to attack the past. Incorrectly of course.
If I wasn't quoting your post (in this case I wasn't) and you still got offended...then yes, you are one of "you guys".
If you didn't vote for the Marxist or the big govt socialist then so be it, you are not one of "you guys".
There are however several of "you guys" on this board and I'm still looking at you, dipsticks.
So that's the excuse now? And I guess he was joking when talking about Corpse Men.
I'm no fan of Trump. Other than the SCOTUS, there's no reason why I would want him in the WH over anyone else, but as I have said time and time again you can't run his words through the same filter that you do normal politicians. This whole "Andrew Jackson" thing, petty ******** semantics. What should be more important is not his framing on how Jackson would have felt about the Civil War, but the type of man Jackson was and why Trump would relate to him.
Ok. But wasn't Jackson's appeal to the common man built on Jackson's ACTIONS on the battlefield? He was a champion of the Americans being forgotten by the land owning elite, but you HAVE TO See a major difference between the two, right? If you equate Jackson's duels with Trump's loud mouth talk and Jackson's leadership on the field of battle against the odds with Trump's leadership in the boardroom with the protection of his daddy's "loans" and the ability to declare bankruptcy......well I guess they are identical.So that's the excuse now?

The Clinton administration reduced the size of government and signed off on our only balanced budgets since the Eisenhower administration. Fault him for things he did screw up, but don't mislabel him as big government.
The last two Military men to run for the Presidency were John "Fn" McCain and John "horseface" Kerry.
Screw those guys.
Screw those guys.
Says the guy that assumes everyone on this board criticizing trump voted for Hillary.
The only reason that anyone has anything good to say about Bill "the rapist" Clinton and his rape enabler wife is because he was in office during the GIGANTIC internet bubble and didn't screw it up.
Thank God for the '94 mid-terms.
Actually, those years, even with the Monica Lewinksy scandle, prove that parties can work together. If Newt and Bill can pass balanced budgets, then there was no reason why Bush, Obama and Trump can't.
Not so sure. The man was able to reach across the aisle, he was able to change Democratic thinking in favor of conservative fiscal policies, he balanced the budget, and made many begin to think that getting/ giving head isn't so taboo.
Hahahahahaha. Obama taught Constitutional law and you are whining about transcripts? Meanwhile we have a President that thinks Andrew Jackson was alive during the civil war, could have prevented the civil war, wonders why we fought the civil war, thinks Frederick Douglass is still alive, doesn't realize Russia has already invaded Ukraine, thinks he can force Mexico to pay for a wall, thinks he won the biggest election in the last thirty years, thinks he had the largest inauguration crowd in history, thinks thousand of Muslims were cheering in the streets in Manhatten on 9/11.....
...and this is just the first 100 days. We have 1300 days of gaffes ahead of us.
Tired of all this winning
His claim and his history do not match up.

NYT Quotation:
At the school, Mr. Obama taught three courses, ascending to senior lecturer, a title otherwise carried only by a few federal judges. His most traditional course was in the due process and equal protection areas of constitutional law. His voting rights class traced the evolution of election law, from the disenfranchisement of blacks to contemporary debates over districting and campaign finance. Mr. Obama was so interested in the subject that he helped Richard Pildes, a professor at New York University, develop a leading casebook in the field.
His most original course, a historical and political seminar as much as a legal one, was on racism and law. Mr. Obama improvised his own textbook, including classic cases like Brown v. Board of Education, and essays by Frederick Douglass, W. E. B. Dubois, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, as well as conservative thinkers like Robert H. Bork.
