Is Trump Turning His Back On His Base
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-...-base.html

Jared Kushner, Gary Cohn and Dina Powell are Democrats and establishment.

Quote:'It would be a terrible signal if Trump were to either force Bannon out or let him go because he is the face of the national populism that inspired a lot of voters to vote for Trump"

Are relentless attacks by the democrat's MSM clouding Trumps political instincts. If Trump doesn't wake up he's finished.

Your base is what helps you get elected, but once you are elected, you are president of all the people. At the end of the day my wish for Donald Trump is that he has a successful presidency.

This. Reasonable people tried to warn y'all that you can't trust Trump. I'm not making a value judgment on whether he's doing good or bad, but the idea that he was ever a principled person who you could count on to follow through with everything he espoused was laughable.

The one person that Trump hired that I wished he wouldn't have is Jeff Sessions. He's view of Marijuana and the war on drugs is just away to feel up corporate prisons.

That's odd. The folks on this forum were saying he was following through with everything he espoused.

You realize that 99% of people locked up on drug dealing possession charges are,
State of Ohio, Texas, Florida, New York vs. so and so. Has nothing to do with views that Sessions or Trump have. FBI DEA generally deal with the big players.

Yep, there is a HUGE difference between campaigning and actually governing.

I don't think that anybody here has said he's following through with EVERYTHING. Please source this claim. A lot of us have been happy with a majority of things he has done so far.

A lot of presidents are simply unable to follow through on some of their promises. There are a lot of reasons for that. Could be congress, could be something they learned AFTER they became president, situation changes, etc, etc. That's just common sense, nothing is static. Has any president had more opposition up to this point?

RE: Is Trump Turning His Back On His Base
We voted for Job, Jobs, Jobs. We voted for enterprise zones in areas of high unemployment. We voted for secure boarders to keep out drug and human trafficking and ISIS. We voted to fix the illegal immigrant problem, which creates a permanent underclass working for sub par wages costing Americans good jobs. We voted for trade agreements that don't encourage US companies to offshore our work and bring the product back to sell to a shrinking American middle class. We voted for law and order. We voted for a Justices department that would hold those in Washington to the same standards as us. We voted against the Clinton Global Foundation selling US policy to the highest bidder while enriching the politician, their family and friends. We voted for a fix of our failing public school system.

Not Jared Kushner, Gary Cohn, Dina Powell, and Goldman Sachs? C'mon man!

Because so far he is doing what he said he was going to do, and hasnt f*cked up a giant section of the world. In short, after 3 months of Trump, Trump has proved himself to be capable and competant. After a few years of Obama, everyone knew he was getting outplayed, screwing things up, and blaming others. Thats why one got a wide range of bipartisan support, and the other got rebuffed in a bipartisn fashion.

Dude we aren't even 100 days in yet. Are you saying he's done nothing to improve any of that stuff? Just look at some of the crap he's rolled back from Obama already. He's not be perfect but damn.

If he trades Bannon's advice for Jared Kushner, Gary Cohn, Dina Powell and Goldman Sachs he's in trouble. I still don't believe he will. I'm still hopeful. MSM is in bed with the establishment / corrupt system and they have declared WW III on him to maintain status quo. We'll see how tough he is?

Trumps base is Trump.

As bad as Bannon is, Jared is worse. Neither need to be anywhere near DC. Nor Ivanka. Well, I suppose Jared and Ivanka could hold jobs there under a Democrat administration.
