If you have ever read any of Trumps books, he is doing what Trump always has.

There are many issues going on right now. As far as I am concerned the number one issue is our "elected politicians". They do not play on the same field that the rest of us play on. Supposedly we voted these people in to help lead us in a certain direction but instead they do everything they can to make sure they have a job and save themselves. At some point this has to end! We cannot keep sending people to Washington that only fight for themselves instead of the American people. We are slowly losing our freedoms. It scares the **** out of me.

I'm not saying that Trump didn't help is cause with all the free coverage, because he definitely did. But if you are going to welcome all the media coverage, quit crying about being so mistreated. Give 'em something positive to report on. Something so super hugely good that they couldn't ignore it. Instead of weird tweets about witch hunts and how mistreated you are.

Jack Welch graded Trump yesterday. He said Trump gets an "A" on his agenda for tax reform, healthcare reform and trade reform. He gave Trump a "D-" on management for the way he fired Comey, lack of getting his staff all on the same page, and his messaging. Note that Welch has been a strong supporter of Trump. I think he was too generous with th "D-"

I have another idea. They will never vote for term limits but here is a different direction to go. Pass a law that states that anyone elected to the Senate or Congress can only serve one term on their initial election. They then can concentrate on doing what they were sent to Washington to do and not spend the last year of that term running for re-election. They then have to sit out one election cycle but then can run again and serve as many terms as they get elected to. That will require them to go back home after their first term and live with what they passed and listen to their constituents so that if they want to run again they can go back better informed on what are the consequences of what bills they pass.

About 10 times any other republican candidate and 3 times hillary. No way another R could have won with that type of discrepancy. If that is the worst anyone has ever been treated, I'm sure some of the other candidates wouldn't mind being treated that way.

Originally posted by Ironman View PostYes, and he created his own attention. If you look back at the coverage during election time, all of the press and celebrities were laughing at him. That's the treatment I'm referring to. Who's laughing now?
