Forgot to post the follow-up denial:



"Who are you gonna believe, the press or my lying tweets?"
I believe the media lol or I should say CNN mainly when it comes to what 45 does. Cause every time he says something isn't true it ends up being true after the talk of the subject calms down. He keeps saying "Fake News" yet he talks to them during briefings when they do have them with him. Considering he doesn't have Sarah Saunders do them daily for him anymore...which is interesting too lol.

I think people are just getting tired of him. But, I wouldn't doubt there's people out there scared to see what will happen next because of the type of pwer he has. Or thinks he has all of the power which he doesn't. He still has to follow the laws like we do although sadly he's not. ugh, what an ass.

Opinion | Donald Trump and Reconstruction-Era Politics

This was published 3 years ago.

Every era of racial progress engenders a racist backlash. The one that is still unfolding in the wake of Barack Obama’s presidency bears a striking resemblance in tone to the reaction that swept the South after Reconstruction, the period after the Civil War when former slaves were granted constitutional rights and black Americans served in interracial governments that came to power in the former Confederacy
But as the historian Eric Foner has written, Reconstruction was doomed by two developments: Washington’s decision to no longer enforce the rights of African-Americans in the South, and the rise of the Ku Klux Klan and related white supremacist groups that brought to bear “a campaign of murder, assault and arson that can only be described as homegrown American terrorism.”
A few days ago I read something I now can't find about how many (!!!) black politicians there were in the U.S. South after the abolition of slavery, so Googled around to see where they all went. Not a U.S. native so never studied this at school.

‘She’s very good with numbers’: Trump says he considered his daughter Ivanka to lead the World Bank

Omg..hahahaha...President of the World bank because "she's good with numbers". Oh yes, I've read about her fudging numbers on your international hotel deals a.k.a. fraud.

Also considered for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. Good grief!
LOL! The world bank is not what he is used to as a bank, it is more of a policy place (my spouse used to work in the executive office there and I know a lot of people that go back and forth between there and various policy places). So even if his daughter was good at maths (doubtful) no way would she be qualified.

Well, by law, he's supposed to. Unfortunately, when Congress (particularly senate Republicans led by Mitch McConnell) refuses to hold him to account for his transgressions, he's free to flout the law at whim.

The nepotism in this administration knows no bounds.

The funny thing is, I'm a product of US education, and we never studied it either. Sadly, too - its like how we never studied the Japanese-American interment camps of WWII.

I suspect for all the talk about standards what gets stressed depends on where you go to school. For example, I was in New Hampshire and surprisingly the stress was on the revolutionary war. The civil war was talked about some years, but it was almost like nothing else happened in the 19th century.

Thousands of pages for a few years' worth of tax returns? I get the feeling Ms. Sanders has never filed tax returns either.
Trump is the direct owner of a significant number of businesses which would be part of his personal tax returns.

I am certain she can get most people hot for numbers, a'right, easy as "40-26-36 are my numbers, sugah - your place, mine or sumthin in between?" I mean - are there really any other numbers at all the Donald cares about? I doubt that, so he for sure meant that!

So, apparently 45 is now saying he has never ever said anything about Wikileaks....they pulled up and showed on tv (on CNN) all the times he mentioned Wikileaks, wrote in Twitter in regards to some Wikileaks, briefings he did when mentioning Wikileaks. And now he said he has NEVER said anything about Wikileaks...IMO I honestly don't think he realizes that as 45 everything he says and does is either filmed and/or recorded and kept for not only the country records but for future history books. Sad that one day kids will read in their history books that 45 is mean and a bully and so much more. *sigh*o_O:rolleyes::mad:
