    @realDonaldTrump

    Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP

    Politics aside, what kind of person says something like this. Disgusting.

    He may of had a right to feel it, but saying that is very harsh. To be honest I have to check it out more, but if he did, and seems he did, it was not appropriate for sure.

    I like how you get flagged for saying it was inappropriate and harsh lol That being said I think @genareddog was right it is 100% disgusting and very unpresidential.

    LOL, flagged for that, have to love it. To be honest, I feel that being flagged for that was a little harsh.

    Well, when I get a little time later I'm going to have to look up James Hetfield, name's not ringing a bell right now. Later is probably going to be tonight or tomorrow, I hope.

    He is the lead singer for Metallica, definitely not a politician

    Trump is no politician and look where he is….

    Along with the talk show host, movie actor or George Washington.

    You just likened Trump to George Washington … a proven leader. Now I’m being trolled…..

    No sir, that was not my intention. Simply saying that Ronald Regan got a C in economics, made B rated movies with a chimp and became President. This comment is not for about any specific office being held, but there are probably some folks that would do good in the political arena that are not in politics.

    Trump Mobile released their new terms, the 600,000 MAGA geniuses who plunked down $100.00 each ($60 million) have been told that $100.00 was just a fee to hold a place in line if Trump Mobile ever does release a phone, it was not a down payment and is not refundable..

    There is also a notice of where they can stand in line to bend over and take it even deeper next time...
    As of the latest that line is already filling up fast because as we all know, MAGA loves bending over and taking it up the a**... AKA "I love some of his policies"

    there were two sides to this issue, now there is just one.

    "The Trump administration on Monday said it would repeal a Biden-era rule that allowed public lands to be leased for conservation purposes, abandoning an effort to protect millions of acres from both industrial development and the effects of climate change.

    The rule, issued by the Bureau of Land Management, had prioritized the use of federal lands for conservation, recreation and renewable energy development. Since returning to office, though, President Trump has championed their use for oil and gas drilling, coal mining, logging and livestock grazing.

    The regulation applied to roughly 245 million acres of public lands overseen by the bureau, which make up about one-tenth of the country. It did not apply to national parks, which are overseen by the National Park Service."

    President Donald Trump said Americans' financial situation was "not even a little bit" of a motivating factor for him reaching a deal to end the war in Iran, despite a new report that inflation rose for a second consecutive month and hit a three-year high.

    Trump made the comment on Tuesday as he took questions from reporters as he left the White House for a high-stakes trip to China.

    "Not even a little bit," the president said when asked to what extent Americans' financial situations were motivating him to make a deal with Iran, as the war stretches into its 11th week.

    "The only thing that matters when I'm talking about Iran, they can't have a nuclear weapon," Trump continued. "I don't think about Americans' financial situation. I don't think about anybody. I think about one thing: we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That’s all."

    What an out of touch rich ****….. MAGA 🤮 More like Make Donald Rich Again….

    It's funny that you pay attention to what he says.

    I don’t get my news from Fox. I pay attention because I actually care about my country.

    “Let me be clear: this is not a golden calf,” said an evangelical pastor at the U.S. president’s golf course in Doral, Florida, where he unveiled a 22-foot golden statue of the president that had been bankrolled by crypto investors.

    It seems to have support from both sides of the isle, I think it might actually have a chance. But a politician will talk one way and vote another so who knows
