Trump's first 100 days, slanted for his own edification

I don't remember Obama touting his first hundred days with campaign ads...

Obama was too busy playing golf, obviously.

I don't even need to explain the hypocrisy here. coughcoughMar-a-Lagocoughcough

I would prefer Napoleon at this point tbh.

A highly intelligent, energetic authoritarian reformer who actually worked his way up in the world with progressive views and an interventionist foreign policy? Sounds pretty solid to me

What a fucking idiot.

If we want to get extremely technical, the Civil War was probably inevitable once the Missouri Compromise happened. Essentially sticking a piece of gum into a hole in a dam. A dam with many, many, many holes that were still leaking.

As much as I hate Sean Hannity, when people were trying to pin sexual assault charges on him as well, it was clearly getting pathetic to cash in. Though I don't think that lasted long. But that channel is really going down. Who do they have left, besides Sean Hannity, that anyone even pays attention to?

The Five is it, and maybe Fox and Friends

I think the Missouri Compromise just kicked the can down the road. If it hadn't happened the civil war might have happened sooner

I thought they had passed their scandals back last summer, but they just came back in full force recently. They've, what, let off 3 people in the last month?

Cue "he misspoke", "he didn't mean what he said" and "you're taking it too literally" defenses in 3..

Ya that would be true.

Hannity is the only one to not have any scandal though

Note that he didn't say "for the better".

That would be an admission that he: a) hasn't always been the best, and b) could stand to improve further. His ego would never allow such thoughts to enter his mind.

I'm just wondering how my grandpa is feeling right now because he watched O'Reilly all the time, and if not him, Megyn Kelly...And he actually seemed to despise Sean Hannity.

The protests need a more concrete goal if they want to be taken seriously and get anything done.

Napoléon III was ten time the man his uncle was, tho, and Trump does is acting a little too much like him (tho not always in a good way) to the point I almost expect a 12 décembre. :^)

Isn't Napoleon III one of the most hated monarchs in French history?

Unfortunately, the problem is so many are protesting without knowing exactly what to be upset about, the legit protesters are marginalized with them, making all the protests seem stupid.

One of the most pathetic, certainly.

All I really know is the Franco Prussian War, which if that's to speak of his reign, he wasn't that great

No, far from it actually. Which is a good thing because, as I said, he was a freaking awesome man.

Really, there's so much to protest about this administration, there would be a protest every day if each and every one had a protest entirely dedicated to that one issue.

That being said, there have been many focused protests so far. The protest coinciding with the women's march, the tax march, the march for science, etc.

Honestly, I haven't seen much at all to complain about as far as the anti-Trump protests. At least the major ones, especially the ones that have been in Washington DC.
