There isn't much that offends me. What really sets me off is hypocrisy. I hate the Democrat hypocrisy of rich people representing the poor. I hate the Republican hypocrisy of screwing over the poor for the rich. We in the middle class are stuck between a rock and a hard place. I hated the hypocrisy of the Clinton's thinking they could push their business dealings to the edge of legality. News flash, Trump is doing the exact same thing except that we knew it before the election and then we find out that Wikileaks was getting their information from the Russians.

"Wikileaks, I love Wikileaks. And I said write a couple of them down. Let’s see. During a speech crooked Hillary Clinton, oh she’s crooked folks. She’s crooked as a three-dollar bill. Okay here’s one. Just came out. ‘Lock her up’ is right. [10/10/16]"

Where's the investigation against Hillary? Where's the defamation lawsuits against the dozen or so women who accused him of sexual harassment? If I had done or said half the things that Trump said, my ass would be hauled into HR and fired like Billy Bush, Roger Ailes, Bill O'Reilly, not to mention Bill Cosby.   

You ask the question are we happy with Trump's progress so far, and I listed many things he's done that are positive.

So far, you've decided to ignore that and list the things Trump hasn't done, or things he said you find negative.

Why ask the question if you have no interest in the answers?  You seem to have an agenda to bitch about Trump and refuse to engage in an actual discussion.

Talk about hypocrisy.   

Did you read the Trump Contract with America or did you just look at the pictures? (I'm saying this in a light hearted, facetious tone.)

Yes, I acknowledge that you have provided trivial accomplishments that Trump has done. I apologize for trying to use humor to placate our discussion. Happy?

What he is doing is effecting change. Yes, all of the change may not be positive.  I freely admit that personally, I think he's a buffoon.  But he's a buffoon that is trying to change the way this country has been going for the past 8 years.  I dunno about you, but I hated that direction.

Has he made change? All I see is a flurry of EOs that have no financial backing and can easily be countermanded when the next President comes into office, and a bunch of incompetent administrators who are ineffectual and waste money.

Ok.  That is one thing that ALL presidents have done.   I would bet the same could have been said for HRC had she won. 
I could list a number of things that I feel Trump has done, but you'd just come back with more negatives and other angles. . .

In reality I thought it would take a generation to fix the damage done, but I am hopeful that the current administration will reduce that time greatly.  Good thing Clinton didn't win or not just our kids, but our grandchildren would be paying the price.

You're right. The other side of the coin is that all of these checks and balances means that he can't do much harm. In the end, it's just words and nothing material like a fiscally conservative budget or a Mexican wall. Last angle...

I like McCain and it really made me mad when Trump said he only likes service members who don't get captured. 

You're probably right but he doesn't have much time left. If he doesn't start passing legislation (this means signing a bill not an EO) and start building things by the summer of 2018, he'll lose the Congress and if/when that happens, he'll be a lame duck until the next Presidential election. It takes at least a year to put forward substantial legislation. At this point, he can't even repeal Obamacare.

I guess you didn't see his nomination (and subsequent confirmation) of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. You should look at "the news" sometime to see what is happening.
You're claiming that because an EO can/may be revised or eliminated at some future date that it is meaningless or worthless? Every president, not the least of which was Obama, used EOs to attempt to get around legislative stalemates. You expect Trump to be different? Why? Or is your criticism "No president should ever issue EOs because..."?
Which administrators have been ineffectual exactly how since their confirmations or appointments? Details please. And exactly how much money have they "wasted" in exactly what way? Details please.

I used to think the same way about "checks and balances" and that a president couldn't do much harm all on his own before.  That was maybe 9 years ago.  The next 8 years were a long lesson in how much can go wrong. 
You seem to have convinced yourself of something.  Of what you can't seem to convey in a sensible manner.  Just seems like you're full of hate and denial and don't seem to be able to grasp other points of view or valuable information being offered here.  It's evidenced in this thread as well as firearms related threads. 
He's been in office 100 days.  That's less than 1/3 of the first year of his term!  I think you've been watching too much MSNBC and the like. . .

Sorry, I meant to say many instead of all.
EOs have their place for trivial matters but I wouldn't call them legislation because there's no financing to back it up.
I just gave a five hour safety class so I'm too tired spell them out and yes, I know you hate reading anything that's not on Breitbart. (kidding) Basically, he finds someone who believes the opposite of what the agency has been trying to do then puts them in charge of the agency. Many of the nomination posts are left unfilled, and the result is their ineffectual ability to do their job. If the goal is to stop government interfering with our lives, then mission accomplished.

I apologize for any offense I have given you.
I like to watch Morning Joe, especially when Joe goes on one of his tirades. I also like to watch MTP but only the panelists because the politicians are usually just more blah, blah, blah. The Reps say that everything is sunshine and peaches, and the Dems say that everything is going to hell. Hardly anyone comes up with any clear solutions. I find most of it amusing. It's like watching a bunch of retards trying to fuck a doorknob out there!

Regarding the firearm related feedback.  You've gotten excellent feedback regarding your questions on reloading (from others, not me), scope quality issues, etc.  You seem to just want to do it your own way in spite of the excellent feedback you get.  Now I am understanding from your discussion on these issues how you can be one who defines a good and enjoyable day at the range where you leave with more questions than answers. 
Ok.  How about this.  How about you lay out clear solutions that YOU would like to see.  Both for "the wall" and other aspects of how Trump is failing.

I have several times. He needs to start building infrastructure like bridges and highways and airports. He can build a Donald J. Trump International Airport in every State as far as I care. He can build a $21B autobahn across the country and call it the Donald J. Trump Interstate Highway. Replace the Mexican border cyclone fence with the smaller wall like Mulvaney said and be done with it. Forget about replacing Obamacare with Trumpcare and fix the existing bill. Forget about tax breaks for the billionaires and focus on simplifying taxes for the middle class. Like I said, he has until the summer of 2018 to start these projects or he'll lose Congress. Accomplishing these things require legislation with real money instead of useless EOs with no financing attached. If he does these things then I'll eat my words but all I see are a bunch of retards trying to hump a doorknob.

Regarding the scopes, I'm just not ready yet to spend $500 on one. Maybe next year but I'm taking all of the recommendations into consideration. Right now, I'm trying to figure out what trigger I should get. HGS has a 2-stage Geissele for $150 that I'm eyeing. My goal when going to the range is not to buy the most expensive equipment but to figure out what works for the least amount. I'm very excited about the 77gn Nosler bullets I got for 16 cents each. That stuff eats my shit.
