I am no fan of the media right now but Trump is just making enemies and sticking his foot in the mouth. I like him on some things but he is an absolute idiot when it comes to spouting his mouth.

That's your opinion.

He's using the media and misdirecting them.  He's a brilliant man.  But you can keep calling the President an idiot if you want.

One can be a brilliant man and an idiot at the same time. For all the smart things he says he says an equal amount of stupid stuff. For example he wants people who leaked information about Russia held responsible but at the same time calls it fake. It isn't a leak if it isn't real, make up his mind already.

I don't know if I would say he is brilliant but he certainly is smart.

He beat the most powerful political machine in the country spending half what she did (not counting Clinton's PACs and SuperPACs), and used mostly his own money.  He hand-picked his campaign team.  He didn't use mostly political experts.  He created a winning team and lead them to victory.

That's what we elected.  He's a winner.  We're tired of broken promises, excuses, and failures in office.  Bitch about Trump all you want, but he's going to do what previous politicians only promised us in order to buy our votes.

Talk about disingenuous! Or are you that ill-informed? Or that incapable of understanding basic logic (A is not B)?  1 (A). The release of the SIGINT re Flynn's (confidential/classified) phone call(s) with anyone, including the Russian was illegal. Trump wants the people who did that prosecuted, or at least removed from their positions. 2 (B). What was "fake" were media claims that 1. Flynn had done something illegal and/or unethical by discussing sanctions with the Russian, and 2. that Trump was displeased with Flynn for discussing sanctions with the Russian. As Trump stated, not only was it NOT illegal NOR unethical, but he expected Flynn to do precisely that (discuss sanctions) because that was part of Flynn's job, and had Flynn not done it of his own initiative Trump would have directed him to do so. The issue of Flynn's interaction with Pence is a completely separate issue having no bearing on the former issues.

You're entitled to have any opinions you'd like, but you're not entitled to make up shit (and expect anyone even half-informed to believe it). Yeah, you can (and do) have opinions based upon ignorance of the facts. That's nothing new nor startling. If you come here and try to pass it off as "objective" analysis... well, that's a fucking joke dude.

Oh please, he won because he had the worst opponent imaginable. People hated both candidates at unprecedented rates, Trump just managed to be hated by a few less people in the right voting areas. I am not saying he is going to wreck america but he is an idiot. He lies to our faces repeatedly. Yes he will do some good but he is still an idiot.

It always amazes me how someone with ZERO accomplishments of any magnitude will call the President, a multibliionaire, builder of some the world's most beautiful and unique buildings, developer of some of the most prestigious luxury resorts, and creator of one of the longest-running successful TV reality shows worldwide "an idiot."

You really ought to stop being so shallow and judgmental based on a few comments on Twitter.  You're falling for the bait Trump puts out there for the Liberals ......

Oh, wait!  I guess you can't help it!

President Trump is busy deciding on cabinet and Supreme Court nominees.  Meanwhile, you're thinking about looking into Hawaiian Tel Com TV after you move.

It's fine if you think Trump is an idiot for spouting his mouth but I don't think so. He won despite doing that, which is the ultimate achievement. Maybe spouting his mouth even helped him with some people. It actually helped him with me. I am more inclined to vote for someone like that even if I disagree with some of the things said.

As some may have noticed before, I tend to stand strongly with the First Amendment to the point that most people disagree with me, and I believe that I stand much stronger with free speech than Trump does. However, I am in full agreement with Trump regarding fake news, even though some people say Trump's stance on fake news goes against free speech (I don't agree).

DJT got the media say'n more dumb stuff as Barry would say.  Hear Mika say it's up to the media to control people's thoughts.  Spoken like a true NAZI.  She should try another career where she no need tink too much.

I laughed out loud when I read that statement.  I guess many can take that different ways. 

While I am certainly not a conformist, people who tend to find themselves beyond where others would go could be called extremists or pioneers.  Matter of perspective.  That said, that statement reminds me of one day that I was driving on Piikoi and found myself driving head on into a woman driving in the other direction.  As she came to a stop, I could see her giving me the palms in the air in the "WTF are you doing" manner.  Well, I'm going home going mauka in Piikoi and I would say that you're the one needing the "WTF" when there are 5-6 lanes of maybe 50+ cars heading the opposite direction.  I guess from her perspective, I was going the wrong direction because I was in her way. . .

Talk about bias...

Whether we disagree or agree with information, the information should not be censored.

This is how information counter to the "approved" narrative becomes hard or impossible to find. AKA censorship.

Not sure how we will go about circumventing such a powerful MONOPOLY on information, that Google is...
