The true difference made by President Trump that he should't be thankful for

It struck me as extremely sad that President Trump of the G.rand O.ld P.arty is thankful for the difference he has made when I realized that he wasn't making a joke. See the link with *** in front of it.  President Trump makes it plain that he is never wrong. If the news reports negative issues then the news is fake is because he is never wrong. It appears to me that he is trying to control the news. The US is a democracy.  Control of news does not happen in a democracy. He has been paying to much attention to his friend Vladimir Putin. Our country and government is founded on different principles than Russia.

I am not used to a President with so many fears. Immigrants scare him. He has told many lies about the immigrant caravan coming to our southern border. See the link with * in front of it. He admits he has no proof of the lies that flowed from his mouth like a river. He fed the lies to the American people and he did so knowing they were not true. Unfortunately, most Americans took his lies as truth and did not think for themselves.

He wants a border wall. If he doesn't get the wall, he has threatened to shut the government down. Why doesn't he get donations from his friends? Why doesn't he give money himself? After all, he claims to have so much money. What about all the people that will not earn a paycheck? I don't know a land lord that will not evict for failure to pay rent. Grocery stores do not give food away for free. Since the actions of President Trump will be responsible for this, how is he planning to pay for evicted peoples rent and their groceries?

So many things have been said by President Trump.  Much of it not true. See the links below that document half truths and blatant lies. Over 4,000 lies in one article. There were many that listed more lies. Google lies told by Donald Trump since becoming President. It is an eye opener.

There is one difference that I hope all the lies from President Trump makes happen. America has always been great. Sometimes people in American accept lies from our leaders without thinking. Due to the high amount of verified lies coming from the President, Americans need to think and verify everything said before accepting it as truth.  Americans need to value their individual vote better. We should not give it to anyone who screams louder when trash talking their opponents. Their behavior does not improve after election.

President Donald Trump is skilled in prevarication

Donald Trump is the President of a great nation. The skills required for this job are numerous. One skill that should never be as finely honed as President Trump's is prevarication.  In other words, telling  lies. See all the links below.

The links with ** shocked me. Especially see the last four. It seems that there are organizations that count his lies.  Since he has taken office, President Trump has told over 3,000 lies. Each lie with the date and circumstance is noted.

I was for this man because a change was needed. Then he opened his mouth.  By his second speech, I was totally against the man.  Telling lies early in "the game" bodes a bad ending.  See all the links below that prove this.

President Trump wants to run for a second term. Voters need to pay attention before the next election. A person capable of telling the truth needs to be in office. There is a place for Trump if he wants to be in politics, just not as leader of this nation.

This youtube parody that was sent to me applies here also.

President Trump does not by play by the rules that others must follow

Our Inglorious President Trump still does not play by set rules that others have to follow. Other Presidents have had to divest themselves of their properties.  Donald Trump fights hard to keep his empire intact. A review of records by a major news channel shows that the Defense Department spent over $138,000 dollars on properties that bear the Trump brand. The money to pay this came from taxpayers in violation of ethical norm and possible constitutional issues.

President Trump spent 25 days at his property called Mar-a-Lago. That cost the taxpayers $58,875.69.  $17,000 was spent by the pentagon in Panama.  President Trump does not own the motel, but his name is on the motel  making it a Trump branded property. One thing about his property bothers me.  He had to pay the US Treasury an undisclosed sum for profits made on his properties. These were profits paid to him by foreign governments.

It is no surprise that the Republican National Convention stop paying on President Trumps legal bills. These are bills incurred by the Russian probe. This is where it gets really weird. At the same time they stopped paying his legal bills,they started paying rent at $37,000 a month in one of his buildings. They started paying Vice President's nephew  John Pence thousands a month for his work.

Unfortunately,  in business there are practises that are legal but questionable. This happens when reasons are hidden, not apparent and those who can answer questions refuse to.  Here is where  President Trump needs to stop and rethink his approach to being President.  No  matter he mistakenly thinks, "The United States is not a business." Read the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth link. Somebody should read them to President Trump nightly.  By the process of osmosis, perhaps some of what he should be doing may sink in.

Please read all the links below.

President Trump forgot power of words when telling police to not treat arrested gang members fairly

Words have power. They can lead people to do the right thing. On the same token they can deliver people to hell.

President Trump spoke to large gatherings of police. He specifically addressed issues related to the MS 13 gang. He told the police not to treat them to kindly in the arrest process. The following is taken from the first link.

"I said please don't be too nice -- like when you guys put somebody in the car and you're protecting their head ... I said you can take the hand away, OK?" Mr. Trump said. 

The Suffolk county police came back with this reply from the first link as well as other police departments who have hear the President's speech.

Late Friday afternoon, the Suffolk County Police Department issued a statement saying "we do not and will not tolerate roughing up prisoners." 

This is a time that police department are working to repair relationships with citizens. Now they have heard the President tell the police to rough up prisoners in the arrest process.  Absolute power corrupts absolutely.  How many times have the police rounded up everyone that was at a site, the guilty and innocent? Who watches the police to see that they only abuse gang members? Permission should never be given to abuse anyone. Where will it stop?

I listened to Vice President Pence speak on denying health care to the poor

I listened to the Vice President speak on bad Obama care.  He tried to convince State Governors that getting rid of it meant more choice for the state.  It does-Who lives and who dies. I guess that no one one told Vice President Pence that the worst lie is the one to one's self. Watch his body language and facial expressions. He doesn't believe the crap spewing from his lips.  All I can really say is Vice President Spence - You lie poorly.

President Trump, justification is an alternative truth cover-up for new Muslim Ban

The Department of Homeland Security working with the Justice Department is busy trying to build a case to back up Trump's travel ban.  These agencies are trying to find evidence that these seven countries are a substantial threat to the security of the United States. They have expanded the definition of threat to make their job easier to explain.

Dudes seeking a pretty policy to cover up a wrong is not even worthy enough to be called "Grade School" pedantic. Doing work to make a policy after damage is done is not worthy of anyone elected to serve the people of this "Great country." They should cover their behinds and / or their bosses on their own time not while working for the United States.

A lie is a lie not alternative fiction

Facts speak for them self. They support the truth. Pictures from different angles show Trump had fewer people at his inauguration than Obama. The third link gives numbers to actual people passing through to the inauguration. My question is, Why lie?

President Trump needs to let go of his anger at people who do not think his "fart's smell like perfume. Let it go.  Keep his own council and opinions to him self. Remember that he represents all Americans. He should not put fuel on the fire around him. That way, it will die out.
