Spanky dictated his own 2015 health letter.

It turns out Spanky's former personal doctor revealed he dictated the letter to him concerning his outstanding physical condition. After Spanky's bodyguard and lawyer raided his office and took his files the doctor confessed "The Great Oily One" told him what to write in the health report.

Not surprising at all considering Spanky's diet and lack of exercise. For all we know, he is mentally and physically unfit for the office. I suspect he also dictated Dr. Ronnie's health report in the same manner. This guy has got to go before his lies cause irreparable damage to our country. Or perhaps his apologists and fans can explain why this should be acceptable from any POTUS?

  You forgot to mention that the doctor told him what he could and couldn't say. And did sign it, presumably because there were no lies that would cause irreparable damage to our country.
  
  Or not - it says something about a physician that would allow such a thing to happen, if indeed it did.

  "This guy has got to go before his lies cause irreparable damage to our country. Or perhaps his apologists and fans can explain why this should be acceptable from any POTUS?" Yes please let's get him impeached before he solves the NK nuke problem. LOL OMG Randy, don't you realize after all this time no one cares about his personality quirks. He has a very flamboyant personality. He does certainly not have the ability to shut up when he should, and yes he has lied. Do you recall "you can keep your doctor, it will cost less, your deductible will go down? " "it was all because of a youtube video". Pretty big lies I would say. I President Trump is bringing about needed change, and is making America a better place to do business, and live. Does his personality faults, as well as appearance out weight his accomplishments? Not in my book.
  
  Not sure if he wrote his health report? he has not commented on it, but let me say he sure had a very odd Physician. In regards to his health, he is 73 has had no major health problems, he never smoked or drank alcohol., he is a bit overweight. One can see he has an abundance of energy, by his schedule. I would think he will live a very long time.

  I am curious. Why do you think he rode in a golf cart while every other world leader walked the 700 yards to a plaza in Sicily during the G7 summit? Do you think it was because he has an "abundance of energy" (your words) and is "the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency," as he dictated to his doctor?
  
  For clarification, I find this part of the discussion to be trivial, but I also find it to be more evidence that Trump supporters see what they want to see. Unless, of course, you can give me a plausible explanation. Wilderness said the doctor's letter contained no lies. Do you think Trump is the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency? I think that is a lie, and could probably even be proven through objective evaluation. What do you think?

  But I think you missed at least some of the point: This cretin of a supposed doctor signed a false report, according to him. Something completely unethical, and that tells us we probably should take whatever he says with a grain of salt. Did Trump dictate the report? Or is this quack simply angry he isn't in the White House and spewing the same kinds of lies we see here on the forums?

While it's really difficult to get more ridiculous than a presidential candidate writing his own doctor's report, I recall myself as well as reporters and members of congress joking that it was so outrageously worded that it sounded like Trump wrote it himself. I believed, at the time, that he did. And, lo and behold, he did. And, lo and behold, his supporters don't give a rat's @ss about this any more than they care about the rest of his sorry-@ss conceits. But, back to the ridiculous. What's even more ridiculous than Trump dictating this letter, is the number of people who couldn't see through it at the time, who still can't see through this blowhard who only cares about himself.

I'm sick of my fellow Americans' willingness to tolerate this obviously unfit man (I use the word "man" loosely) as leader of this country. He's so disgusting. Remember when candidates used to suffer consequences for their unethical acts? Well, not any more. Trump has set a new low for politicians. He hasn't drained the swamp. He's become the most disgusting, smelly, putrid swamp monster of them all. Whoever dares to swim within his orbit gets covered in slime. Look how many people whose careers and character have been damaged just by working with him.

Geez, people, stop it! Stop defending this putrid piece of $hit.

  "Oh, the horror of a man who conducted himself with class and dignity, while having the audacity to try to provide better access to health care for his people."...by making others, including one of the most vulnerable groups (young people just starting out in life) pick up the tab. If you're going to tell a tale, at least tell the whole tale. You might even include the notion that he didn't change access to health care at all: just provided useless insurance with such high deductibles that "his people" couldn't afford care anyway.
  
  I keep seeing ads on my local TV for an attorney, concerning insurance payment for an auto accident. "A smiling thief is still a thief" it says as the friendly, smiling insurance adjuster convinces the victim to take far less than they should. The sentiment is, I think, appropriate.

I think you would be hard pressed to find actual misstatements (or lies) in Jake's posts. Over-the-top descriptors? Yes. But lies? I don't see it.

Being an RN, I can tell you one just never knows what the next day can hold in regard to health. I don't consider Trump a God, I think I have been pretty clear in my opinion of Trump. It's all about results... Not Health, not his sex life, not his past business failures, not his narcissistic personality, and not the fact that he has orange hair.

What puzzles me, Jake, is that apparently you don't see that the wealthy elites and the corporations they control are one and the same as the government. There is no practical difference between our current system of government the form of government practiced in the days of the Sheriff of Nottingham: a wealthy power elite (formerly called "nobles") whose wealth is derived chiefly by taxing a slave class of serfs and expropriating their labor products--and whose sole and entire purpose in all their works (and "all their pomps" I might add) is to enhance their own power, wealth, and prestige at the cost of those they rule.

Your faith in government and it's intention to EVER do anything else (such as something that would benefit your) would be touching, if it weren't so risible.

Regulations (other than those that address actual crime) are always and everywhere intended to limit the personal economic freedoms of the serfs. For example, why do you suppose you can't build one of those tiny houses? (I am going on the perhaps questionable assumption that it has ever entered into your head to do something or build something.) It is better for the power elites to force you into debt slavery. Have you ever considered starting a business? Farming? Or even growing some vegetables in your yard, or raising a few chickens or a couple of dairy goats?

Almost any activity that would contribute to your personal or economic independence from "the system" has been made illegal or very difficult--by regulations--and for the precise purpose of extinguishing, as much as practical, the possibility of individual economic independence.

  For every thing that you say is progress with Trump, I can also find everything that is wrong about him. The same goes for Obama, for everything that you say was bad, about Obama, I can find those things that were good about him.
  
  Why does Trump have to keep those he dislikes in a "hyper state"? Why can't he unify the country? Answer: Because he is a divider and a conquer.

Trump, he ha orange hair, and is overweight, he is an aging man that enunciates his words funny... he is nonfiltered. However, it would be foolish to say he is not solving many of the countries problems. He has been charged with nothing. We have some of the tops attorneys in our country working to come up with something, anything to bring him down. Maybe it's time to stop all the rhetoric? Maybe it's time to realize he won... And Russia just had nothing to do with his win. He would win again if a vote was taken today. That's reality.

If I were Mueller, I would wait until the Democrats take back control of Congress before releasing results.

Many Americans believe the truth of what happened during the last election and that the subsequent firing of Comey is going to be damning for Trump.

And the economy was heading toward steady growth long before Trump took over. Job growth, low gas prices, falling unemployment. The stock market is now showing less growth than when Obama was president, all due to Trump and his instability, gas prices are rising. And when the deficits grow so much that Trump has to raise taxes, the sphincter of companies will tighten up and job growth will go down the shitter too.

Randy Goodwin and Valeant have both made comments, more or less in passing, that actually address policy issues. Randy feels it is the obligation of government to provide for women who cannot care for their small children.

I am not aware that Trump has made a policy statement about the welfare state, although there is a presumption that conservatives are generally not much in favor of the welfare state.

Suggesting or implying that it is the role of government to provide for women and their small children is to introduce a false dichotomy: the notion that it's either government or nothing. There are actually other, better options.

One option would be for fathers to support their children. Welfare payments to women and dependent children are merely cases in which the taxpaying citizen is picking up the bill for Dad. Leftists have no problem with compelling taxpayers to pay for the support of other people's children. If it's okay to compel someone to pay, it seems much more reasonable to compel the kids' fathers to pay for the support of their own children.

In some states at least, policy actions have been taken to compel the children's mothers to go to work to support their kids. Odd that there have been no actions taken to compel the children's fathers to go to work and support their kids. In cases of welfare dependency, Mom is normally fulfilling her role of raising and caring for the children; whereas, Dad is not fulfilling his role as provider. The taxpayer is actually paying Dad's freight, not Mom's. Government would rather compel the taxpayer to work to support other people's children than compel Dad to do so.

Re Valeant's comment about Trump presumably working to take away coverage for pre-existing health conditions, here again we are presented with a false dichotomy: That we must continually expand our current monstrosity of a health care system to provide for every possible exigency--or we let vulnerable people suffer and die.

There are other options. We actually have a model for a well functioning and inexpensive health care system. We had such a system in 1955--when I was a child. Prior to government-conferred monopolies and subsidies of both health care and health insurance, as well as government regulation and control, almost every family was able to pay for doctor visits and prescriptions out-of-pocket. Basic health care was cheap. Health insurance through employers--when it existed at all--was limited to catastrophic coverage, which was the only kind of health care that a family of modest means would be unable to pay for out-of-pocket.

Government involvement in health care is the proximate cause of the high cost. The way to resolve the unaffordability of health care is to get government out of the health-care (and health insurance) business altogether. The whole problem can be fixed simply by turning back the clock.

The same is true of education. We have a well-functioning (and highly successful) and inexpensive model for that, too. Our public school system worked well, and was cheap, prior to government intrusion. As did our system for college education. (My college tuition was $10-$12 a semester.) We can have this successful system again by simply turning back the clock to about 1955.

The Left's solution is to continue--and continually expand--manifestly failed policies that bankrupt both private people and the national treasury.

It is my observation that the almost invariable Leftist motivation for supporting such failed Statist policies is that they are on the payroll. They are almost invariably government employees/retirees, or work in industries that enjoy vast government subsidies/monopolies, or are otherwise government dependents. Hence they view the continual expansion of the State, and ever higher taxation in support of State policies as in their interests.

  Hello blueheron, I hope I haven't stumbled and mistaken satire for serious discussion, but there are a couple of your points that seem open for discussion and debate.
  
  Consider your thoughts on placing responsibility for children's financial support on the father instead of the taxpayer. Although I don't think it is a complete, or adequate measure, we already have child-support policies and judgments in place. We also currently jail fathers that don't fulfill their financial child-support obligations. What would be your further actions to make father's responsible for the support of their children?
  
  Relative to healthcare, and returning to 1955 models ... a cute reply would be to tell you to put down the pipe, a serious one would ask what the hell are you talking about. To consider that you are seriously equating the models for care and services available in 1955, to those available in 2017, doesn't look very complimentary. Am I missing some point that isn't obvious. Doesn't the consideration that the most expensive piece of equipment in a 1955 doctor's office might have been the office manager's typewriter, and now it is at least a better-than-1955-hospital-quality x-ray machine, and possibly a million dollar MRI?
  
  I have serious doubts you can support your statement, but it would probably be an interesting discussion to try.

I think you read to much into my statement "my president". I have been pretty clear that I do not intend to condemn this president of a crime until he is charged with a crime. I don't respect anyone's opinion that ascribes to innuendo or unproven acuzations. I find this kind of groupthink" sad, and harmful to our society in general. This kind of thinking works to set one against other.

"Too bad you and all the people like you, didn't feel that way about Obama. "

I might say,"how dare you"... This statement makes you appear that you feel yourself as well as your opinion superior to mine as well as millions of people that voted for President Trump. I need not defend my feelings to you, and I care little about what you think of my opinion. Actually, I set myself above those that outwardly pat themselves on the back, and believe they can blanket a large part of our society as needing their help to "see the light". In regards to former President Obama, I voted for him the first time around. It did not take me long to realize I was not in any respect to pleased with his job performance. No, I did not feel inclined to refer to Obama "my president". In my opinion, he was a very good speaker, he was not a hands-on president, as Trump had proved to be. Obama laid below the radar, very private, and well-rehearsed when he did surface. His 8 years were rife with turmoil, and poor decisions. So, you were on the money in regard to assuming I did not feel or did I ever refer to Obama as "my president". He just never earned that kind of respect for his job performance'.

"Why does Trump have to keep those he dislikes in a "hyper state"? Why can't the unify the country? Answer: Because he is a divider and a conquer."

No, it is not the president that is divided us. It is "us" that is dividing us. We are a split society due to having such different opinions. Conservatives are just that, most live our lives using common sense, and are not quick to condemn with lack of proof. We take one at their word and frown on those that don't keep it. We are not swayed by words alone, it's deeds that win support. We are forgiving if one shows they are working to be a better person.

"That's what dictators do. The fact that he fires those that don't agree him is very dangerous for the country. That is called "group think." That's how the neocons and W got us into the mid-east conflicts."

Is it clear you are under the impression you can read minds? Perhaps Trump fires people that are not doing the job they were hired to do? Do you see me making that statement how I just gave an opinion on something I know little about? Just as you did... Do you think you are being a bit dramatic when you infer that the president is leaning toward being a dictator? He has at best 6.5 more years in office. His dictatorship will be sorely cut short.

"So essentially quality of character in a president means nothing to you? He can lie all he wants as long as you see progress in what he does?"

The quality of character means a lot to me. However, I knew his character long before I voted for him. I was sure he was a womanizer, and he certainly was known to stretch the truth. On the other hand, he was running against a woman that in my opinion has the lowest of character. I have lived her long history in politics. I have no respect for her as a politician or a woman. I voted for lesser of two.. I voted for an agenda plain and simple. I voted for change, I voted for transparency. Hillary was offering none of that, now was she?

"Columbus Nova is a management company solely owned and controlled by Americans," the statement said. "After the inauguration, the firm hired Michael Cohen as a business consultant regarding potential sources of capital and potential investments in real estate and other ventures. Reports today that Viktor Vekselberg used Columbus Nova as a conduit for payments to Michael Cohen are false. The claim that Viktor Vekselberg was involved or provided any funding for Columbus Nova's engagement of Michael Cohen is patently untrue. Neither Viktor Vekselberg nor anyone else other than Columbus Nova's owners, were involved in the decision to hire Cohen or provided funding for his engagement." https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-05- … -fraudlent

  The link you gave is from a site with no references or known writers. Don't use this site if you expect to be taken seriously. As Val pointed out, the Russian is involved with the company and it said so before this news came out. Since then they removed all trace of him from their website info.

Yeah, that American turns out to be his cousin by the way. A little more to it if you dug into the story.

SEC filings also show that Columbus Nova and Renova U.S. Management are primarily owned by Andrew Intrater, a 56-year-old U.S. citizen who is Columbus Nova’s CEO and Vekselberg’s cousin.

And Vekselberg is the biggest investor in the company.

And it turns out that, based on donor records, Vekselberg is/was a Clinton supporter: "Vekselberg’s Renova Group has donated between $50,000 and $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation, donor records show. Another firm associated with Vekselberg, OC Oerlikon, donated $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation."

Another company with ties to Vekselberg, Joule Global Stichting in the Netherlands, a shady entity identified in the Panama Papers as an offshore money-laundering client of the notorious Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca, issued 100,000 shares to John Podesta.

Viktor Vekselberg also arranged for two transfers of unknown amounts to a private Clinton Foundation account in the Bank of America.

We have clear documentation that Vekselberg funneled money to the Clintons and Podesta, but zero documentation that the money paid to Cohen went to Trump.

Ahorseback, much of the trouble, I suspect, is that most of the leftist posters here have spent most if not all of their lives in the State-run public school system, which are effectively prisons, and where the main thing they are taught is "a slavish reverence for a sacrosanct State"--which is obviously what a State-run institution would teach them. Well, that and making sure they are carefully quarantined from any kind of standards of thought and reason, and kept completely ignorant of the mere possibility of doing their own thinking and engaging in critical thinking. Most of them are carefully quarantined from the possibility of learning to read, write, and do basic arithmetic, as well.

The life experience of institutionalization, from an early age well into adulthood, also fosters a complete inability to conceptualize life outside an institutional setting. They can't conceive of a life that is not wholly governed by authorities who control all activities, provide breakfast and lunch, and control the flow of information and ideas. Hence, they have the idea that all problems can and should be solved through the coercive intervention of authorities, and that all their wants and needs should be automatically provided by authorities.

This has been their whole life.

Hence the middle-school mentality--where, among other things, it is possible to gain some social capital by making fun of your teacher's appearance or mannerisms, and gossip, innuendo, lies, and baseless accusations are standard fare--symptoms of an absolute lack of personal power and a very absolute conviction that personal power is impossible to attain--and even a very deep conviction that personal power is an evil. There is a deep belief that it is actually WRONG to think and reason, exercise personal responsibility, and think and do for oneself, and that if you are dissatisfied, you should come as a supplicant to authority and beg them to intervene. Failing that, you can whine and act out, and engage in gossip and slander.

This is the mentality of the life-long inmate of several variants of the prison system: the mentality of the beggar, the victim, the utterly dependent, who cannot even imagine personal power.

Continuing with my line of thought in my previous post:

The leftist solution for all things is that we need MORE and bigger and better systems of incarceration, authorities should have MORE power to control all matters personal and economic, and authorities should have ABSOLUTE power to commandeer resources.

This is crux of leftist thought: All power to the government; no power to the people.

Plus there is also a very deep loathing for life--at least human life and often, in particular, their own life. I assume because it has been rendered so meaningless by prolonged incarceration, although I sense that leftist feel that life is just too damn much trouble.

This attitude comes from having always been defeated (inevitable in a prison system). This experience will tend to make you give up before you start, and avoid challenges. Hence no sense of mastery and personal power can develop--there can never be an experience of going toe-to-toe with a challenge and winning. There can only be the experience of folding like a cheap lawn chair, automatically conceding--and believing that the only avenues available for asserting yourself are whining, complaining, ridicule, and slander, exercised entirely as leverage for begging.

  The real news? I noted that in the past few days no one has made mention of President Trump's accomplishments. The three American's that have been released from NK. The new initiative that was rolled out to bring down the price of prescription drugs. have you actually seen this reported on CNN or MSNBC? Yes, they may make a quick mention of it in 24 hours, but most that frequent these networks are not aware of what Trump is accomplishing.
  
  He does not have to turn anyone against liberals, they do a great job at doing this themselves. I have to ask, do you not remotely find it odd that some networks bah Trump non stop 24/7? This borders on propaganda. It is not helping their cause, only waking up those that question - how could Trump be so bad for America, when he is solving so many long-term problems that have plagued us?
  
  You can only justify your opinion so long by saying Trump is dividing the country. The country was divided on Obama's time. That is one of the biggest reasons Trump won... This unrest developed over Obama's 8 years. He let all spin out of control, most of us felt lost and bewildered at his lack of ability to do his Job. I voted for Obama his first go round. It did not take me long to see I made a mistake. He made a lot of promises he did not keep. He gave nice speeches, but that was all he had to offer. I did not need a president that catered to celebrities and laid below the radar. I needed a president that could get things done. My president is "rough around the edges", but he keeps promises and gets things done.

"Trump fans to do anything else but try to shield their fragile emotions from the upsetting truth:"

In regard to emotions. I am spending all of my emotions on being joyful. Joyful due to the daily accomplishments of the president. So many wonderful things happening daily I would be hard-pressed to think of anything as trivial as a doctors letter that Trump dictated or what porn star he slept with many years ago.

Just think, three American's have been released from their prisons in NOKO. And we did not pay a cent... And then today the president rolling out his drug prescription program, measures to bring down the price of prescription drugs. Just wonder why no other president did this. I am elated with his initiative. Oh, I forgot, our president may also be on the verge of denuclearization of NOKO. Like I said, so hard to keep up. CNN is not reporting the work Trump has done to bring down prescription drug costs. Today he will roll out his plans to help American's pay less for their prescription drugs. He is going after the biggest drug manufacturers and doing away with past regulations that prevented lower prices. It seems so simple, yet no one has done it. So, in regard to emotions, all I can say color me happy!

So, sad to see you can't bring yourself to realize what a great job this man is doing. It appears your emotions are stuck on hate? Not good for one's health. Oh, well if you need a prescription drug to make you happy, it will be cheaper due to President Trump.

Sharlee01: It's obvious that you have never watched any of those evil channels like CNN, because if you did, you know they don't bash Trump 24/7. As a matter of fact, they have many of Trump's people on their panels like Kellyanne Conway and Jeffery Lord. What you hear about Trump bashing is made up by Trump and Fox News.

What long term problems has he solved? Please enlighten me.

The economy was already good under Obama. Isn't it funny that when Trump was running for office, he said the unemployment was at 42% under Obama when it was really at 4%. Then when Trump took office, it was magically at 4%. When the stock market was at 20,000 under Obama, then Trump took office and suddenly he owned that market that had been trending upward for years. He is putting the country into a 1.6 trillion dollar debt over the next 10 years with his budget plan. How is that solving a long term problem?

As far as his prescription drug program goes, it is based on raising the cost of drugs in foreign countries, so that our drugs will cost less. How many countries are going to agree with that?

As soon as he repealed the Iran nuclear deal, Iran launched missiles from Syrian bases against Israel in the Golan Heights. How is that keeping the peace? It might actually start WWIII.

What promises did Obama make that he didn't keep? Please enlighten me.

  - Economic boom - The economic boom was created by Obama. Trump just took credit for it. While he was campaigning he said that Obama's unemployment rate was at 42%. Immediately after taking office it was 4.2%. He just had the decimal point in the wrong place...not! The stock market was and has been trending up for years under Obama. When Trump took office, it was at 18,000. The market always trends upward. Under Trump it is very volatile because it reacts to his tweets of uncertainty.
  
  - Nafta adjustments - We don't know the long term effects...do we?
  
  - Trade deficit change - Same thing
  
  - Deregulating corporatse America - That is what caused the financial meltdown in 2008... greed and corruption. That's why we have regulations to prevent that from happening again.
  
  - Tax breaks for even liberals - The biggest tax breaks are for the 1%. Those tax breaks are at the cost of 1.6 trillion over 10 years
  
  - 14 separate prisoners reunited with families - I couldn't find any mention of that.

  - Paris Agreement cost savings - Global warming is real - long term effects.
  
  - The Wall - There is no wall that Mexico was going to pay for. We still don't know how Trump is going to pay for it...do we?
  
  - Immigration declines - Is that a good thing? Who is going to pick the strawberries, wash cars, and make beds for the amount of money paid to those people...the white people?...Oh that's right, they are taking away our jobs and raping our women?

Did Obama offer tax relief? Not to mention business owners have become optimistic with a president that does what he says he will do. The stock market would hit record-breaking highs on the days Trump canned another job-killing Obama regulation. The market broke records and continues to be strong. I realize all this is hard for you to take in, and I also could go on and on... We must agree to disagree. It must be very hard for liberals to see Trump doing such a wonderful job. However, get accustomed to it, there is so much more to come. Plus, though you won't give President Trump credit for his accomplishments, and can keep your negative opinion of him.

Sharlee01: I sound like a broken record? When all you are doing is regurgitating conservative Trump party propaganda. You deal in facts? So here are some real indisputable facts for you about Obama. They are not based on any future Trump happy talk.

Here are Obama's accomplishments. These are verifiable facts, because they are now history.

1 – Rescued the country from the Great Recession, cutting the unemployment rate from 10% to 4.7% over six years

2 – Signed the Affordable Care Act which provided health insurance to over 20 million uninsured Americans*

3 – Ended the war in Iraq

4 – Ordered for the capture and killing of Osama Bin Laden

5 – Passed the $787 billion America Recovery and Reinvestment Act to spur economic growth during the Great Recession

6 – Supported the LGBT community’s fight for marriage equality *

7 – Commuted the sentences of nearly 1200 drug offenders to reverse “unjust and outdated prison sentences” *

8 – Saved the U.S. auto industry

9 – Helped put the U.S. ontrack for energy independence by 2020*

10 – Began the drawdown of troops in Afghanistan

11 – Signed the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals allowing as many as 5 million people living in the U.S. illegally to avoid deportation and receive work permits *

12 –Signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act to re-regulate the financial sector*

13 – Dropped the veteran homeless rate by 50 percent

14 – Reversed Bush-era torture policies

15 – Began the process of normalizing relations with Cuba*

16 – Increased Department of Veteran Affairs funding

17 – Signed the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility, and Disclosure Act*

18 – Boosted fuel efficiency standards for cars*

19 – Improved school nutrition with the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act*

20 – Repealed the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy*

21 – Signed the Hate Crimes Prevention Act, making it a federal crime to assault anyone based on sexual or gender identification*

22 – Helped negotiate the landmark Iran Nuclear Deal*

23 – He signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act to combat pay discrimination against women*

24 – Nominated Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, making her the first Hispanic ever to serve as a justice

25 – Supported veterans through a $78 billion tuition assistance GI bill*

26 – Won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 “for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples”

27 – Launched My Brother’s Keeper, a White House initiative designed to help young minorities achieve their full potential*

28 – Expanded embryonic stem cell research leading to groundbreaking work in areas including spinal injury treatment and cancer*

* Either killed by Trump or will be killed in the near future.

It should be noted that many of Obama's accomplishments were killed by Trump, not because they were bad. It was because Trump was put down by Obama at the Foreign Correspondents Press Conference, for lying about Obama being born in Kenya. This was never proven by Trump and he never apologized for lying, but in his usual bullying way, he counter-punched Obama by killing some of his programs. Now that is what I call great leadership of a president...doing a wonderful job...not!

It's interesting that liberal presidents do everything to save the people. However, conservative presidents do everything to save the corporations and unfettered free market enterprise. However, free market enterprise does not take into account greed and corruption, which is part of human nature.

It is every man for himself, I've got mine, you go get yours, and Not in My Backyard, mentality. That is what causes financial meltdowns that Obama pulled us out of.

So you can continue your happy talk and let's see what really unfolds. Who is Trump going to blame for the next market crash? It will crash within in his term. Because whatever goes up, has to come down. He will probably blame it on the democrats who are not in power. That's his style, never accepting blame for anything, but always blaming it on others.

  4 – Ordered for the capture and killing of Osama Bin Laden (Killed the head of Al Queda , no big deal?)
  
  8 – Saved the U.S. auto industry (The auto industry was going down the tubes because banks would not loan money for loans because of the financial meltdown. Obama loaned GM the money to keep them afloat and they paid it all back...no big deal)
  
  25 – Supported veterans through a $78 billion tuition assistance GI bill* (funding education for returning veterans ( no big deal)
  
  You get the picture? It is so easy to not acknowledge what he did. Shall I go on? See if you weren't in denial, your whole agenda about Obama being a nothing president would come crashing down like a house of cards. As in the words of your glorious leader..."how sad, how really sad."
