The West has tried to broker a two state solution for the last 80 years and it hasn't worked. Getting the Arab states involved to broker a solution that is acceptable to both parties is not a bad idea. It's actually refreshing to see something new being tried. Now if it turns out all this is just a front to force an Israeli occupation of Palestine by strong-arming them into a Jewish dominated one state solution - then I will walk these comments back.

OK - I have an issue with Kushner being Netanyahu's pet dog in the WH, but other than that..

what does your gut say?

My gut says Israel will pay the Arab countries under the table to sell the Palestinians into bondage - but I can't immediately associate that outcome with Trump as being his intent

I think its interesting that as Trump get ready to deal a blow to the Palestinian Homeland efforts and with his attempts in institute a Muslim ban, he is contemplating putting US troops on the ground in Northern Syria...

U do realize all those appearances are just phot ops..Nothing is actually being done..The Dodd-Frank legislation he signed was empty..All it said on the paper is that they will review it..Major roll out and photo op..Hour long photo shoots with CEO across the country..But you are happy and that's his goal..

It's nice to hear the man speak for himself without the character assassinations from the sharks. A masterful performance from our President

How does that make American Great Agian?..He needs to do the work he was elected to do and not the photo op..Not that I believe he can bring jobs back..He won't..Thus the photo ops..

the character assassinataions come from the source, not the sharks. The sharks dont make him lie, or refill the swamp with billionaire business men, or try to pass illegal orders.

Some sharks from Trumps own fishtank:
Sessions: "yes... that constitutes sexual assault" (in reply to being questioned on Trump's own admitted conversation)
Neil Gorsuch's exact words on Trump's tweets: "demoralizing" and "disheartening."

Guns... assuming you dont know, Gorsuch is Trump's own pick for the Supreme Court

But yes.. these are the sharks right?

Trump: Democrats were careless and its their fault they were hacked
Trump: waaaaa... someone is leaking info and ITS NOT FAIR

Trump: Only I can fix this
Trump: Waaaaa... I inherited a mess
Trump: Waaaaa... the democrats are ruining everything

This is actually going great. Peaceful protest is showing the world this is not our guy. People are coming together, using the power of boycott. This guy coming unglued as the joke he is. If you look around America is on the course to be great again, just not how Trump envisioned it!

I just cant wait to hear him cry when he gets wikileaked, and you know he will. Good chance he gets popped for treason also, after a campain of lock her up! Lock her up!

Karma is a beast. He's gonna reap what he sowed. Hopefully after he's ousted GOP steps up and brings some real leadership to the table. Fingers crossed. We could use a good republican for once, not these freakin half wits. Its like village idiots unite!

Its probably the best possible outcome. Wasnt so pro Hillary, so its going to turn out that both those ahole lose lol

None in the GOP as presently constituted would've had what it takes to win this election against the machine that is constitutes the modern day left.

A machine programmed based on Sal Alinsky's divide and conquer views and principles. Effectively abolishing the constitution that makes America great in the first
Place.

Trump isn't perfect but he was the perfect storm this country desperately needed. We will all benefit in the end. A new precedent will be set in Washington for Americans and generations to come.

The immigrant dream of coming to America and becoming an America will become real again. American pride
and economy will flourish again.

Smoke and Mirrors. Trump is dangling the shinny objects in front of his followers and they are eating it up. He hasn't done much of anything of consequence. The hard work and real tough decisions are coming for him and then we'll see what he's really made of. So far his Administration has been a DISASTER!!! Only a complete Trump zealot would not be able to see just how bad his Presidency has been already.

They're like people who have put all their money into a pyramid scheme, and have just attended the first 'investors' meeting where the orchestrator has told them everything is going great and they are going to make millions. Such wilful self-deception.

During the campaign I thought trump was putting on an act or that it was part of some clever strategy. Now I think he genuinely believes his own stuff, he's completely deluded. Very worrying- and if he's like this now, what will he be like after 4 years of power?
