The US has has an on going idiotic Middle East agenda for decades. It was idiotic under Obama. It was idiotic under Bush jr. It was idiotic under Clinton. It was idiotic under Bush Sr. it was idiotic under Reagan.... need I go on?
What Trump is proposing is to dial up idiocy ten levels.
But I get it. You brought up Obama because if I'm calling out Trump's stupidity. Then I must be for the "other side" right?
All presidents take vacations. The US Gov't does stop because they are playing golf or sipping a martini. That's the problem today, we expect the office of the president to be the King of The US. The president isn't "presidential" if he isn't seen on camera for every frigging event. Events that we have multiple departments to handle.
I bring Obama up generally because it was disgusting. I understand they need a vacation, but he took a LOT of vacations. And typically a quick break from vacation to address an American being beheaded, or a club full of Americans being shot up....just say something! He had no problem taking those breaks to make anti cop statements before any actual determinations were made on the incidents.
Overall, the government fails and fails both sides of the fence. Many said we need something different than what we've been getting, and now we have it. I wish we could all give the guy some room to follow through on what he said he would do and judge the results instead of beating him up every step of the way. Even Bush Jr was given the opportunity to work before they went to town on him (deservedly so).
Trump is racist because people say he is with no actual evidence. Xenophobic because it's another good word to say, fear of people from other countries, even though he married 2 of them. Every word he says is reported way out of context and when he goes out to rally to state his message directly to the people, he's an egomaniac and is campaigning. Travel ban equals Muslim ban. The wall is divisive. Doesn't pay his fair share when it shows he pays a higher share than most that preach about the fair share. They protest for women's rights, he hasn't done anything with women's rights, but is adding to maternity leave and has been proven to pay women equal pay in his own workplace. It goes on and on and on and wouldn't be as ridiculous if so much of it wasn't flat out lies by news media that is supposed to be impartial. Give it a break already.
