Making assumptions gets you pretty fired up there my friend, see how it is when you do the same about others?
Has the nat'l debt gone down? The deficit? Did he replace healthchare within two weeks of becoming president? Did he relinquish any federal power to the people?
Trump claims prescription prices have gone down but "“I tend to look at the producer price index because it is closer to what manufacturers are selling drugs for,” said Richard G. Frank, a professor of health economics at Harvard Medical School. “The recent pharmaceutical PPI is pretty flat for the last couple of months and up a bit since December 796.4 to 810.0 in May (1.7 percent). Market watchers like Drug Channels and IQVIA all suggest that through the end of 2018 that net price growth (after rebates) has slowed but were still positive, at about 1.5 percent. Gross prices (before rebates are accounted for) grew at an annual rate of 5.7 percent.
“Of course if you focus on generic prices only, that price index has declined. Bottom line, I think the evidence points to slowed growth not negative growth.”
He claimed that he’d work for the general public rather than wealthy donors and corporate interests yet passed a tax bill that gave almost all the benefits to the wealthy and big corporations that even rewarded companies for moving jobs overseas and gave them clemency for moving profits offshore..
Manufacturing is down, general prices are up, there have been wage increases but they have been swallowed up by inflation and rising costs of goods.
I can go on and on but don't wanna.

I'm certainly not shocked and have yet to break down and cry, it's laughable that anyone would suggest that. We who oppose Trump saw this coming from the beginning.
And yep, it's short sighted for anyone to think that this impeachment stops with the acquittal of Trump. He along with (now) some of his senators are still on trial and will remain there right up until election day.
Mitt Romney took an oath to the constitution and that is what he stood for, not for Trump unlike the rest of the GOP Senators. It was nice to see a man stand on his own without Trumps hand up his ass.
I took the liberty of answering your initial questions. Pretty confident I got a passing grade.
What I do here is laugh at people who argue for or against Trump and most are Canadians with no horse in the race..
Then you get those that bandy about tag names like trumpite or trumplican....
And now you can have the last word!
.... and I bet you'd just love to censor them from expressing their opinions.
You're just jealous you can't be clever enough to invent nicknames.
lol In this thread? Last word could be anyone's guess.
Well it can be argued that American politics have a global effect so Canadians do have a horse in the race and not always in a funny way. I get that this is hard for some to grasp but you'll take away from these boards what you can and if it's just a few giggles here and there then, good for you.
Yeah I see the names being bandied about on these boards as well, the ones you mentioned along with the omnipresent "snowflake' one of my personal favorites. Oh and LIE-beral, is that the correct spelling? No matter.
I get the last word? Oh I highly doubt that, I thank you for the courtesy though, but I won't hold you to it. I fully expect more of your attention to be directed towards me. It's all good.

Really? There's plenty left to discuss. Dont'cha know the impeachment trial in the court of public opinion steams ahead towards November where not only is Trump up for re-election but so too are 20-something GOP Senators? This is an ever changing story my fiend, and the final chapter is yet to be written.
To Walters credit, it is nice to be fluent in more than one language. :lol:
I never really considered myself to be a "fiend", but sometimes "you have to be cruel to be kind". No doubt there is a lot for political buffs to discuss but the depth of that knowledge is not my forte. I'm basically pretty simple, I go a lot on what I see and hear and try to figure out the 5-10% of it that's plausible and let it go at that. We can talk about what's likely to happen Nov. 3, but an assassination attempt could change all that. One thing I will say is I'm pretty sure what we'd get with Trump - Democrats are quite capable of being better or worse and probably sneakier. Whatever happens isn't really going to change my world!
