Odd, I don’t recall the cartoonist taking issue with Republicans using the debt limit and every other means, to undermine President Obama’s agenda. Odd that.
In an appearance with the Emir of Kuwait on Thursday, President Donald Trump, who styles himself a master negotiator, threw himself into the middle of the fight between Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE by offering to mediate the dispute at the White House, if necessary. It was, to be sure, the triumph of ego over sound or wise policy.
“My style of deal-making is quite simple and straightforward. I aim very high, and then I just keep pushing and pushing and pushing to get what I’m after,” Trump wrote in the “Art of the Deal.”
In “The Art of the Deal,” Trump opined about leverage: “Don’t make deals without it.”
Based on the first eight months of his presidency, it seems that Mr. Trump knows very little about China. And while the Chinese have moved a bit in Trump’s direction on North Korea, his early efforts to leverage Beijing only underscores Mr. Trump’s lack of expertise in reading the “Chinese mind.”
“I love getting even. I get screwed all the time. I go after people, and you know what? People do not play around with me as much as they do with others. They know that if they do, they are in for a big fight. Always get even,” Trump wrote in “Think Big.”
America is less feared; less admired; and respected than ever before. The lessons from the “Art of the Deal” or “Think Big” just aren’t working. President Trump needs a new playbook. Sadly, America’s prestige, credibility and security depends on it.
we already know what Obama was. the jury is still out on Trump’s solution. Folks like Pelosi and Schumer are small people not to be trusted. what else is new?
May I point out something on Trump’s behalf, He has more money than all of you combined most of which he made on his own, (mathematical odds) He is more educated than most, he is a success at almost every venture but not all, he learns from his mistakes. Does Hillary? She says everybody else makes them for her. The point being Trump represents the best of us, and if you disagrees how did you feel about him 3 years and back were you ready to execute him then or are you the kill him if he’s not a Dem standard. How’s that Russia thing turning out, and I bet not one of you would offer an apology for accusing him of. What is he being accused anyway? You have to take or give something of an illegal nature for there to be a crime. I forgot, he’s a Republican and the Dems are still crime shopping.
According to Ramirez, #45 has an Agenda! What could it be other than Tax Cuts for the Rich and Disembowelment of any Regulation that protects ordinary Americans?

Ramirez, are you implying that YOUR GUY is not the best negotiator in the history of mankind?
And I thought Republicans demanded that the debt ceiling should never be raised?
Or was that just part of your Hatred Of Obama?

Debt ceiling is probably against the 14th amendment anyway.
