Trump's daddy should have taught him "A man's word is his bond"

... but Trump's daddy was just as big a POS as lying Donnie. You'd think Trump's fan club would've had honest parents to teach them the golden rule too. It's pretty obvious they didn't. A man's word means nothing to a Trump fan.


Donald Trump’s administration will soon appeal a court ruling that blocked a revised travel ban, White House spokesman Sean Spicer said. But the appeal might carry risks as Trump’s own words could come back to haunt him in court.

A federal judge in Hawaii on Wednesday halted Trump’s new travel ban hours before it was scheduled to take effect, dealing him a major setback on one of his top policy initiatives. A Maryland judge followed hours later.

Some lawyers and legal scholars said Trump essentially admitted on live television that he’d rather have a travel ban that gave preference to Christian minorities and blocked many Muslims who had a right to enter the U.S. on valid visas -- provisions that prompted judges to block the original Jan. 27 executive order. The March 6 revisions were supposed to address those legal flaws.

Lawyers might argue that the president’s words "reinforce his real motive" in drafting the new ban, said Stephen Wasby, a legal scholar at the State University of New York in Albany.

"He said he wanted to go back to the original executive order, which was even more blatant in its religious discrimination than the revised one," Wasby said. "Whether he likes it or not, his words will have consequences in court."

your daddy should have taught you some manners....here is a quote for you, although the outcome has already been decided....."It is better to keep silent and let the world think you are a fool than to open your mouth and confirm it"....all I can say is "confirmed in spades"

the golden rule.

You actually know what this is Best Virginia? You've heard of this? You know where it comes from?

What's happened to you then Dude?

Why is that the only thing you care to remember of whatever else you learned and apparently rejected from that same source material?

Explain.

Trump is using a strategy of dividing the nation, creating disconnect from the press, and increasing emotional irrationality among the people (through fear and anger). As these things increase over the next 4 years, a majority of people will seek to allow the Trump Administration the power to enact any agenda they please, without accountability. It will be about simply choosing sides. It's happening already.

He is f'ucked. This new EO won't be passed. His budget is f'ucked. Congress will never go along with this craziness. He can't provide any proof whatsoever of any "wire tapping" or "phone tapping" of Trump Tower. The Republicans are already tired of his ********. He is a habitual liar....and he's not even good at it. He gets caught in every lie. What an embarrassment to the country.

You mean like this?

"So, let me close just saying a few words about the tensions there. We have all seen images of protesters and law enforcement in the streets. It’s clear that the vast majority of people are peacefully protesting. What’s also clear is that a small minority of individuals are not.

While I understand the passions and the anger that arise over the death of Michael Brown, giving into that anger by looting or carrying guns, and even attacking the police only serves to raise tensions and stir chaos. It undermines rather than advancing justice."

It already is boomer. The Left hammered him over refusing to accept the election results and your side has turned into the ring leaders.

creating disconnect from the press,

Boomer they've created that for themselves with their constant incessant negative drumbeat against him. Its only encouraged his opposition, his supporters are still behind him 100%, they NEVER are shown.

increasing emotional irrationality among the people (through fear and anger).

Boomer just read the posts on this board from the Left, not Trump's supporters! We're making fun of you folks (at least I am)

a majority of people will seek to allow the Trump Administration the power to enact any agenda they please, without accountability.

That's the way it's always been boomer. If Trump "screws up" you folks won't have a thing to worry about. Remember I said he gets judged on 2 big themes. Only two. Jobs and safety. He will be held "accountable" by the voters on those 2. That's it!

It will be about simply choosing sides. It's happening already.

Yes boomer it has happened, and in the arena of ideas, I think it's a good thing folks are seeing the Left exposed.

Correct boomer, but neither does killing them with snipers or marching in public shouting things like "pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon"...or "what do we want? dead cops...when do we want 'em? NOW!!!"

How's that help anything boomer?

Why didn't Obama or anyone on the Left condemn THAT?

All you have to do is read some of the speeches of Eric Holder...Valerie Jarret.....Loretta Lynch...virtually accusing Police of racial bias and open hostility toward Blacks.

Criminal. They encouraged the violence they supposedly objected to by making those radical rabble rousers and trouble makers believe they had legitimate gripes when they should have been called out for their criminal behavior.

Here's where you're mistaken: I voted in the last 5 presidential elections: Green - Dem - Dem - Rep - Dem. I try to discuss issues rather than towing a party line, but it's impossible now. It's not issues we are discussing anymore....it's just an us versus them bs narrative. I voted Rep on many other races on my ticket. The amount that the right is overlooking already is amazing. You're (by your own admission) going to let this cat get away with anything as long as he boosts the economy (but do you give Clinton credit for the economy under his administration, or was it Regan that gets the credit?). I'm appalled at this man's character (I was before he ran - more so during the campaign- and it's just worse now). With all your Christian talk, you think this man is a man of integrity? It's bs.....just as long as he is NOT a dem.

Of course I condemn it. I don't understand that type of raging hatred towards people that help protect (same as anti-soldier protesters in the Vietnam era), but it doesn't mean the entire issue gets split into pro-cop / anti-cop camps. Same as being against a war doesn't make you anti-soldier

There is racial bias and open hostility towards many minorities by police.

This new EO won't be passed.

Its already been "passed" and will be upheld once its challenged in the Supreme Court

His budget is f'ucked

No it's not, its been proposed and sent to Congress where it will be their blueprint. Many Americans say it's about time we started reorienting our priorities and de funding what we can't afford anymore

Congress will never go along with this craziness.

Congress is ready to back Trump's policy initiatives 100%. He faces NO opposition on policy in his party, only on strategy. Democrats can't stop a thing he wants to do or proposes.

He can't provide any proof whatsoever of any "wire tapping" or "phone tapping" of Trump Tower.

He doesn't have to, the Investigations will reveal it unless the media was lying when they reported on details of it and evidence gathered from it.

The Republicans are already tired of his ********.

No they aren't, just the ones who never liked him. Most of his support is rock solid.

He is a habitual liar

He corrects the lies told about him, and the liars get mad when he proves them wrong

and he's not even good at it

I agree with this, it's hard to copy the experts on the Left who are the authors of all Lies.

He gets caught in every lie.

He gets trapped in the Left's intricately woven web of deceit, and exposes how they spin it

What an embarrassment to the country.

Your're just jealous. When's the last time you folks on the Left have had to defend funding Planned Parenthood? He's making you work for and justify your cherished wasteful spending and you can't. You're being forced to watch your sacred edifices to Leviathan being systematically dismantled and it's like Chinese water torture seeing your Baby stripped naked piece-by-piece.

So there is no such thing as the "Golden rule" right RPJ?

Clearly you understand what it is, so why don't you explain it to us?

What you afraid of? Exposing your ignorance, or admitting that it's actually a pretty well grounded piece of advice everyone should follow?

Where does the "Golden Rule" Best Virginia spoke of come from RPJ? What was he talking about?

True boomer. You are correct. So where does it come from, and more importantly, what is the solution?

Killing the Police? Are they the only ones causing racial tensions?

They're not perfect I'll admit. But are you saying they're picking on perfectly innocent people just because of their Race?

Explain.

Again correct. However what I think is missing in the analysis of why the communication has broken down is an honest assessment of what the problem is. In my opinion that is an attitude of hatred and disrespect for the rule of Law, and the role Police Officers have in upholding that.

They deserve respect first since they are the Officers being paid to enforce the Law. When disrespect for the Law and their authority breaks down, they are left being accused of the very thing they are there to protect.

Again....you talk only in extremes. Yes! Of course there are police officers that target innocent people because of their race. Matter of fact, it's actually a strategy of la enforcement taught off the books for many years, and still taught today....it's called racial profiling (maybe you've heard of it?). But some police officers are just racist in their attitudes towards causes of crime in general as well. That said, I believe the majority of police officers are good, balanced, fair people that seek to protect and serve.....and backup their fellow officers in a very dangerous profession.

. I'm appalled at this man's character (I was before he ran - more so during the campaign- and it's just worse now)

It's an intellectually dishonest argument boomer. Trump is not accused of doing anything "illegal". Yes there is aggressive opposition to his policies...I get that. However I don't see any 'criminal' intent or activity in him simply carrying out what he was elected to do.

You say me and others on the Right are simply excusing his 'immoral' behavior but here is where the Left is intellectually bankrupt in making the charge. Hillary Clinton we know broke the Law and lied about it.

Silence from the Left.

Obama and Hillary we know lied to us about why those U.S. diplomats died in Benghazi. The Left shrugged its collective shoulders and tried to blame the right for "making the whole scandal up"

Now, it's the Left casting aspersions on Trump's agenda while they refuse to recognize the abject failure of their own policies...like the ACA and failed Immigration practices.

So as I say Trump gets the blame for a lot of what the Left claims is now being ignored, but he is simply the antidote in my opinion for a lot of what the Left has screwed up.

Those talking points are getting really old.....Clinton - Benghazi - Emails......are you seriously blaming the left for the US immigration problem? Let's see, the right had the Oval AND Congress 2002-2007 (I think)....they did what? I think a wall was a part of the strategy then too wasn't it?

boomer my son-in-law, Father-in-law, Uncles, and good friends are Cops. You're talking about cops who are human beings, and as we know all Humans are fallible. However the blame for the breakdown in the disrespect for the very Laws they are sworn to protect cannot be solely laid at their feet no more than the attitude of racism can be blamed only on White folks.

The "extremes" boomer, are the excuses folks who hate (Police) & use to justify their hatred for whatever their reasons or causes for their hatred are. Racists too btw.

Police don't "hate" anyone. They "hate" criminality & disrespect for Law and order, and anyone who tries to interrupt their ability to maintain that.

No I didn't make that charge boom. I was responding to your assertion that the Right is excusing Trump for his attempts to fix what is wrong. Of course US immigration policy is a failure of our political leadership on both sides to act. Agree with you 100%. Trump was one of the first politicians to point out how terrible it is and build his campaign on it, and he proposed a solution. Now he's attacked on the Left for his proposal to fix the problem by being called a Racist.

Why not just let him roll out his policy then criticize it if it doesn't work? Nope...he's a "racist" and 'incompetent'.

Who's saying all that boomer?

You JUST SAID cops are humans, the human is fallible.....but humans don't HATE. At my high school most teachers showed favoritism towards "good kids" from "good families" in the town. It pissed me off so much, I grew my hair and beard out and rebelled against all the teachers that didn't prove to me that they were better than that. I grew the **** up, but there is something about that rebellion, I'm still proud of today. Respect, sometimes, has to be EARNED. Laws or those that enforce them do not automatically warrant respect....especially when so many show favoritism and disrespect themselves.

I respect that attitude boomer you displayed, and honestly in too many areas of public service it is not demonstrated enough. You are a good man, and you prove it each time you reveal aspects of your attitude like this.

Yes, as Humans we are all fallible, prone to bias and prejudice and ignorance because we are mostly consumed with our own arrogance and sense of self righteousness.

I am as guilty of that as the next person, no better, no worse. However, I first respect my place, and then I respect the Laws that keep me in my place. I know many young Black men who have never had this vital lesson taught to them boom. Not at home. Not in the culture.

I've taught my 3 sons how to first respect themselves. Then respect me, as their Father. Then I've taught them to respect the Law that will keep their Black asses out of jail, and in most cases keep a bullet out of of 'em too! (smile)

I agree with what you said here, that respect MUST be earned. Police do not go into the Black community "looking" for trouble. But that unfortunately is where they find a lot of it, because too many of our Young Black men have no respect for themselves or the Laws that govern their behavior.

We need some honest talk about that pervasive attitude boom, before we can ever hope to try and expect Police to see them otherwise (as respectful Men)---as I honestly believe most Cops do until they run into the troublemakers.

No I didn't make that charge boom. I was responding to your assertion that the Right is excusing Trump for his attempts to fix what is wrong. Of course US immigration policy is a failure of our political leadership on both sides to act. Agree with you 100%. Trump was one of the first politicians to point out how terrible it is and build his campaign on it, and he proposed a solution. Now he's attacked on the Left for his proposal to fix the problem by being called a Racist.

Why not just let him roll out his policy then criticize it if it doesn't work? Nope...he's a "racist" and 'incompetent'.

Who's saying all that boomer?
You're overlooking things like: outrageous claims endangering our election process and intelligence apparatus (where's your respect for law enforcement there?), horrible language that disrespects women, an aggressive attack against negative press, perpetuating conspiracy theories, name calling (even GOP) lawmakers like a teenager....but as long as he boosts your 401k, all that righteousness stuff goes out the window

You JUST SAID cops are humans, the human is fallible.....but humans don't HATE.


Boomer Cops want to live. they want to come home at night to their Wives, and Families and Girlfriends (or Boyfriends) Unfortunately in their particular line of work, they do not always deal with honest, Law abiding folks. So their defenses are up by instinct whenever they meet someone.

When they pull a driver over, they don't know who's sitting behind that wheel, what they're up to? they treat everyone with a certain degree of suspicion just to protect themselves and stay alive. What happens after they pull you or me over is up to us.

Cops are not trained to back down or trust everyone. It's up to us to respect the disadvantage they are automatically placed at whenever they first meet us, then work with them to diffuse their distrust.

Watch this and tell me how you would deal with this everyday if you're a Cop?

True. But if it was easy....anyone could do it.
