This raid is a leftover Obama thing. Glorious Leader only does successful raids ..WINNAH raids not LOOZAH raids.

This is why rebels and terrorists use human shields, deliberately putting the innocent at risk.

Harley Davidson cancels Trump Trip due to protests

The powerless president.


Trump trip canceled; Harley-Davidson wasn't comfortable with likely protests


Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump will not head to Milwaukee for a previously scheduled visit of a Harley-Davidson factory after the company decided it wasn't comfortable hosting him amid planned protests, an administration official said Tuesday.

Trump had been scheduled to tour the factory Thursday where he also planned to sign executive orders related to American manufacturing.

White House spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham confirmed Trump is not expected to go to Milwaukee on Thursday.

Harley-Davidson did not immediately respond to CNN requests for comment.

Trump set to make Supreme Court pick

Large protests have been in the works in recent days, particularly in light of Trump's executive order issuing an immigration ban.

It was the threat of protests, and not Trump's planned signing of executive orders, that made Harley-Davidson uncomfortable, the official said.

The canceled trip highlighted the difficulties Trump will continue to face as he looks to implement his agenda while his presidency is engulfed in controversy.

Trump's decision to temporarily ban citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries from traveling to the US and suspend the admission of all refugees has sparked a wave of protests nationwide -- protests which now appear to have torpedoed the rollout of an unrelated part of his policy agenda.

The travel ban was also met with widespread condemnation by Democrats and even some Republicans who called the move counterproductive to US counterterrorism efforts.

That fiery opposition has already ramped up Democrats' efforts to stall the confirmation of Trump's Cabinet nominees, and could also trickle down to legislative efforts.

Minnesota: Gopher State
Number of Brits who want to have Trump's state visit plans denied now amounts to 1.7 million:


1.7 Million Brits Sign Petition Demanding Parliament Ban Trump From State Visit


Parliament will have to debate banning the now President Trump from making an official State Visit as a result of another viral anti-Trump petition. A petition needs 100,000 signatures to be debated by Parliament – the current anti-Trump petition has more than 1.7 million.



Those Brits sure are smart.

Report: In a 'humiliating' and 'threatening' tone, Trump insulting Mexican president

The master of negotiating.




Report: In a 'humiliating' and 'threatening' tone, Trump lambasted Mexico's president during phone call

During a phone call with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto on Friday, President Donald Trump reportedly disparaged Mexico and threatened to use military force against the drug trade, according to Washington, DC-based journalist Dolia Estevez.

In an interview with Mexican news outlet Aristegui Noticias, Estevez, who cited sources on both sides of the call, said "it was a very offensive conversation where Trump humiliated Peña Nieto."

Estevez said that while both the White House and the Mexican president released information about the call, both sides characterized it as a "friendly" conversation and neither revealed what was said.

Estevez said she "obtained confidential information" corroborating the content of the discussion.

"I don't need the Mexicans, I don't need Mexico," Trump reportedly told the Mexican president. "We are going to build the wall and you all are going to pay for it, like it or not."

With a character like that, that he has the nuke codes and needs no congressional oversight for a first strike is bloody scary.

Unemployed Americans could work on the farms, but with worker shortages, farmers will need to raise the wages to attract others to quit their other jobs. The competition will push the cost of food up. Well. let them learn.

Speaking of humiliating. :lol:

Donald Trump’s wall the 'most idiotic thing I have ever seen', says developer asked to build it
https://www.google.ca/amp/www.indep...r-jorge-perez-a7556581.html?amp?client=safari

That's fake news. Truth be told, the most idiotic thing ever is that people who are clearly able to read and write, would vote for Trump. I mean sure, there are folks that self identify as leftards that love deficits, massive spending and taxes and would fit right in with Trumpenomics but so-called normal people should run the other way

Delaware prison hostage situation linked to Trump

America is so great now guys!


Delaware prison hostage situation linked to Trump

Authorities negotiated into the evening for the release of the last two of four corrections department workers taken hostage by inmates at a Delaware prison.

Inmates at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Smyrna, Del., told a local newspaper that concerns about their treatment and the leadership of the United States had prompted their actions Wednesday.

The hostage situation drew dozens of officers and law enforcement vehicles and prompted a statewide lockdown of all prisons. One hostage was released Wednesday afternoon and another was released hours later.

A preliminary investigation suggests the disturbance began about 10:30 a.m. when a correctional officer inside Building C, which houses more than 100 inmates, radioed for immediate assistance, Delaware State Police spokesman Sgt. Richard Bratz said. Other officers responded to help, and the employees were taken hostage, he said.

Bratz initially said five employees were taken hostage, but authorities at a later news conference said the number had been revised to four after one person thought to be among the hostages was found in another part of the prison.

Additionally, 46 inmates have been released from the building since the hostage situation began including 14 inmates who were released early Thursday, according to a news release from the Delaware Department of Correction.

Robert Coupe, secretary of the Delaware Department of Safety and Homeland Security, said earlier 27 inmates had left the building over the course of the evening.

Authorities don't know "the dynamics of the takeover" or whether those inmates had been held against their will, Coupe said.

One of the freed employees was taken to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening, authorities said. The condition of the second wasn't immediately available.
