Wow, I'm glad you feel that way. I'm in agreement! Let's start with the current Immigration Laws that are on the books!!!! Now take a deep breath before you respond, because you walked right into that one 😎

OK, so everyone with a Security clearance can sue the US Government because their right to free speech is being suppressed. That is the most stupid thing I have ever seen anyone on this forum type! You have no clue what you are talking about....as usual. Have a good day!

How is removing this yahoo's security clearance infringing on his first amendment rights? No one said he had to shut up and no one told him he could not go on TV and act like an idiot anymore. He still has all the rights afforded him by the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. He just no longer has a security clearance. I no longer have a clearance after my time in the US Air Force but I can still say whatever I like. One has nothing to do with the other.

From CBS News...https://www.cbsnews.com/news/security-clearances-how-do-they-work/ Here is the money paragraph: In the case of former CIA directors, the agency "holds" their security clearance and renews it every five years for the rest of their lives. However, that requires former CIA directors to behave like current CIA employees if they want to keep their clearance, which means avoiding travel to certain countries and generally living in a manner above reproach. My guess is that if the current CIA Director was going on TV and calling the President a Traitor, his clearance would be revoked also!! So why is that so hard for you to understand?

The only interesting thing about this thread is.....if the NFL has such control of what the players wear and how they wear it (which I know is true), why do they not exert that type of control over the National Anthem protests? Taking a knee (or protesting during the National Anthem) is hurting the league from a revenue standpoint. I'm pretty sure that if I protested anything while working at my job, my employer would have a big issue with it. Also @titantiger...I'm guessing you were born somewhere around 2190 nights ago.

It was November of 2016......This statement is precisely why I find it funny the Left has such an issue with DT calling out the main stream media as FAKE NEWS. As a conservative my whole life, I've never blindly believed what the media reports. BTW, that means I don't blindly believe what Fox News says either (Homer). The Fake News is just as guilty of slanting the news by what they choose not to report. As far a PK goes....maybe he moved away from the US after Trump's election...he would probably have to go to South America though because he is wrong so often, not even Canada would take him!!!

I guess you call that "looking for a dark cloud in a silver lining," huh? Anything could happen! And there are risks for everything! You have a good day!

4.1% Growth in the GDP last quarter and averaging 3.1% over the last 6 months. The economy hasn't grown at over 3% in something like 14 years.....let's hope it continues!!!

Isn't there an Economic Analysis report due out this Friday? It is expected to report that the GDP has grown between 3.3% and 4.6% during the second quarter. A far sight from the "new normal" of barely any growth of the Obama administration. Also, I believe there are more job openings than current job seekers with "Record Low" unemployment rates in something like 16 states. I'm guessing that the voting public is happy with the economy at this point don't you think? Do you think the economy would be growing at this rate if there were no tax cuts?

“Lighten up Francis.” I’m pointing out that Pres Obama had no experience to be Pres. He was only the 2nd Senator in the last 60 years to be elected Pres and before that he was a community organizer. I don’t even know what that is. . HRC’s only real accomplishment was being Bill’s wife and running the “Bimbo Eruption” team during his Presidency before she got elected as a carpet bagger in the 2nd most DemocRATic state in the US. The most qualified person for the Presidency in the last 50 years was George HW Bush. They called him the resume President because of all the high Government offices he held and he turned out not to be a very good one. Being a good Pres is a lot about being a good leader and giving your constituents the right vision. I know you don’t like Pres Trump but I believe he has given his constituents everything he promised so far and they seem to be happy with him. Also, he has caused you guys on the left to become “UNHINGED.” I’ll go back to not posting again and laughing at all of this foolishness. Have a good day.

Dude, I’ve been reading this board for about 10 or so years. I go back to Auburneagle days and I have less than 20 posts. An argument is the last thing I want. I would hope you could come up with a reason that the last Pres or the one before that or the one before that is more qualified then the current occupant of the Whitehouse. I expected more than name calling. No need to respond.

That is very persuasive. Thanks for the intellectual response!

I'm just curious about your definition of a "qualified" candidate. Does a couple of years as a Senator after being a community organizer make a qualified candidate in your eyes?

You remember Uncle Joe, he was the one afraid to cut the cake, Who wants to tell poor Aunt Sarah, Joe's run off to Fire Lake........Bob Seger, 1980. You youngsters should go listen to the song. It has great lyrics!!!
