Lol let's talk about the right boycotting abortion. Or transgender people using whatever bathroom they feel comfortable in.

Step 1 -

[h=3]House Republicans Move To Reverse Obama-Era Rules.[/h]The AP (2/1, Daly, Freking) reports House Republicans began debate Wednesday on a measure to rescind Obama-era rules designed to protect streams. However, Rep. Bill Johnson (R-OH) said, “Make no mistake about it, this Obama administration rule is not designed to protect streams. Instead, it was an effort to regulate the coal mining industry right out of business.”

Right, who needs clean water if we have coal?

Milo has had more black in him than a black hole, but he is a white nationalist...hilarious.

I think Milo is actually hilarious.

Again, only one side constantly talks about how tolerant it is, and it isn't the party you're referring to above.

And not to re-hash, but it's a public restroom - it's not only about which bathroom an individual feels comfortable in but EVERYONE who deserves consideration on the topic.

The difference between me and far-left's and far-right's is that I actually care to listen to the other side to educate myself and they simply don't want to hear it. If they don't want to even hear it, well, they do what they did in Berkeley last night.
Exactly. It's essential in developing solid debate skills and the art of persuasion. Not only do these leftists not want to hear it they don't want others to hear it either. That is why the shout down and shut down. Whether its born more out their hate and rage or a fear of the other side persuading others to come to its point of view, I don't know. Either way its just intellectually weak and lazy.

The media trying to blow up how trump deals with leaders of countries like Mexico and Australia. Screw what they think. America first. If a third world country and a island across the world that doesn't help anywhere else in the world doesn't like us.......get lost.

I mean other than one being our neighbor and basic common sense telling you that our country is a safer and more prosperous place by having a strong relationship with them; and the other being on the ground with us for 15 years in Afghanistan and contributing over 26k troops to that effort I totally agree, who cares what they think...screw 'em. MAGA!!!

While Spock is wrong yet again. If you think the whole hates us/him you're not paying attention. Trump winning was the second domino in the downfall of globalism. France and Germany are next.

That is the problem with liberals; they think it is more important to be liked, than respected. I will take the latter.

I actually agree respect is better than being like. But, we get respect by being disrespectful? That's where Donny got it wrong.

Yeah, I'm highly doubting other countries are suddenly being all respectful just because he's tweetin' and talkin' like a self-proclaimed badass.

No Brexit was the first step in The Citizens telling the globalists to fuck off.

The 'respect' begins at home. We need to clean up our act, regain our law and order, fix education, balance our budgets, negotiate fair trade agreements, and support our military and veterans. This is exactly what needs to be done and it is what Trump is trying to do. Once we have our own house in order, it becomes easy to deal with the rest of the world from a position of strength and respect. When they see we are serious about dealing with our internal problems, they will soon figure out we are going to be serious and resolute in dealing with them.

Pelosi says she can't work with "President Bush"; Maxine Waters says Russia is invading Korea. Do they both have Alzheimer's now? Are they actually this 'unqualified'?

Fixing education is not his priority based on his choice of DeVos....she failed miserably in Michigan

I think it is; together they can dismantle the federal department of education, and we will be well on our way to giving all kids a chance at a quality education, not a pathetic one based on an unlucky zip code.

I'm not sure this chick knows how to "fix" anything. She's a fucking moron and unfit to be running the DOE.

This was an awful decision.

No matter your leanings, she's straight trash and EVERYONE should be upset about the selection and passage.

Most of his picks seem like he's just trolling the libtards. They even floated Sarah Palin for a few positions just to further bunch panties. Unfortunately these people are actually getting appointed.

Maybe not if you think the Dept of Ed should go bye-bye.
