Your biggest issue with the Trump administration

[*bfine32*]

Recent threads around here have gone down the path of silliness, as to issues with the current POTUS. To be honest it is not only here, but it is the public in general. So about 18 months in what is your ONE biggest issue with the current administration?

This is not a thread to mention everything you dislike, things that have been suggested, not proven; nor is it a thread to defend anything that someone suggests, Just your one biggest issue besides his hand size, what he eats, what size envelopes he takes photos with, ect....

My personal is the turnover of people in the cabinet.

I don’t like this either, but a bigger issue for me I would say we aren’t putting sufficient enough pressure on the dems because we are not rounding up illegals fast enough. Seems like ICE should be going harder at all illegals.

He lies on a daily basis.  Usually tied to things he's either made up or seen on television that day.  And he uses those lies to justify his policies.

[Au165]

Pathological liar with narcissistic tendencies. Inferiority complex that results in his lashing out in a bullying manner to try and prove his superiority towards anyone that has a different view than him or about him.

[NATI BENGALS]

Getting his news from fox news. Using the full power of the white house to be manipulated by the network most responsible for the toxic divisive nature of present day American politics.

Or the ethical violations since day one that have recently netted his family some big wins. Not wins for America. Just his family

Or being the biggest narcissistic blowhard hypocrite i have ever known about.

[Yojimbo]

Failed to “drain the swamp”. All the same people/groups being corrupt and wasting tax payer money.

I must begrudgingly force myself to have no issue with Trump, as I don't hate the player as much as I hate the game. The 2016 election and our "choices" are simply a toxic byproduct of years of political wankery and we're as gleefully over the barrel asking for more as a populace can be. USA! USA!

Much like all those women he didn't do anything to, we wanted Trump to violate us.

Not sure how to respond to this, as there is an array of things I don't like about him.  He just comes off as douche bag and insecure. I could provide many examples as to why I feel that way but you asked for one.  I can respect many views that I don't hold or believe and still respect that view point even if I disagree.  I guess in general he just seems like an asshole with an authoritarian lean and like democracy.

Sorry, but I have mention at least three.

1.  Massive tax cuts that were not needed.  Overwhelming benefit to the wealthy at a time when corporations were already scoring record profits and the stock market was booming.

2.  Fear mongering to get everyone to hate Mexicans and Muslims and empower white supremacists.

3.  Massive increases in military budget that were not needed.

Oh man, this is tough because I have two that are pretty much a tie. Most of my issues with our current government aren't just White House issues; it takes Congress to pass legislation and Trump is just there to sign his name to that stuff.

My biggest issue is the lack of competent leadership in many of the agencies of our government. I had to make that a little broad because this is a combination of vacant positions (which is because of no one being nominated, not because of holdups in Congress) and people in roles that aren't qualified and/or don't understand how the agency functions. There are a lot of things I disagree with policy-wise when it comes to the administration, but the base function of the Executive is to carry out the laws passed by Congress. When the administrative body is handicapped because of ineffective leadership then the Executive is not doing its job as it should.

My very close second are the ethics concerns.

[*michaelsean*]

I'm going with the people he hires. Most seem to have issues, that the other people he hires should know beforehand.

My problem isn't with Trump or his administration he is who we thought he was. Let's be honest, we all knew he was a con. He's always been. We can work around him as long as he's held accountable by Americans including his supporters. Unfortunately, his supporters are all over the place, and there lies my biggest issue.

It's his supporters. They've been exposed. Bigly! They've lost all of their talking points against Hillary Clinton. Everything they accused Hillary of doing (scandals, fbi investigation etc) Trump is currently doing and has done yet they find no issue with it. Just yesterday he says he is keeping his personal cell phone even with the security treats because it's convenient. This opens him up as POTUS for far worse hacking then Hillary's emails. But I guess his supporters really didn't care that much about her emails afterall huh.

Also they claim Mueller should be done with his investigation of the biggest attack on America by foreign power since Pearl Harbor now that it's been a year. Need they be reminding that Benghazi investigation went on for 4 years...... Bill Clinton had to testify under oath and was investigated for nearly 2 years for a consensual affair. They slam Hillary for supporting him and not leaving him, but say nothing about Melania staying with and supporting her husband..... Or him paying off porn stars. So did they really care about an affair? If they can investigate that for 2 years, then truly they can take some time to investigate Treason against this great Nation.

Speaking of Benghazi. The failures of this administration in Niger. The abandoned troops and the deaths of our military men and women there is far worse than anything that happened in Benghazi, yet his supporters barely mention a peep about it. How many of you even know what we are doing in Niger? How can you care so much about Benghazi and nothing about the lives lost in Niger? Where was their help? Why wasn't Trump at their funeral? Why didn't he meet the body's when they came back in the middle of the night like Hillary and Obama did? Where is the accountability? Do yall even care? Did yall really even care about Benghazi? I think we have our answers.

They had to photoshop Obama hugging Kim to take shots at Obama for being "weak", yet watch Trump pretty much BEG to meet Kim even as Kim disrespects him publically by calling him a "failed President", and they still support that. There won't be a need to photoshop Trump hugging Kim for the other side.

National debt. Don't get me started on how much we heard about that from 2008-2016. Yet Trump signed the biggest budget in American history. Spending far more than Obama ever did. Did you guys really care about the National debt?

This is my frustration. We all knew Trump was a con. He's always been. But his supporters have disappointed because they've been exposed over the last 18mnths for not really caring about the things they claimed to be passionate about the last 8 years. They have no character, no real passion outside of hating Hillary, they are willfully and willingly played as fools, and they have turned on America with their love and admiration for those who wish to blow America off the map like Putin and Kim.

We've entered into a sad era in American political history. But we will prevail.

My biggest issue is that he didn't give me no stinkin' stimulus check. Wait, I've got a job and am doing well, I don't need a stimulus check..


On a more serious note, I would like to see him carry himself a little more diplomatically. Other than that, I'd like to see him get a massive infrastructure bill passed, would guarantee a surplus of work for my industry, and all industries related to the design and construction of infrastructure projects, for at least a generation.

Exactly.

You are getting your stimulus check in the form of tax rebate.  Only difference is the country had near record low unemployment and the stock market was at record when Trump decided we need to add a few trillion to the national debt in order to "stimulate the economy".

Please save the negative assertions for other forums.

perhaps you meant to say: The divisiveness he has caused between liberal and conservative.  

[hollodero]

That there's an awful person in the oval office.

Isn't it true, that we won't really know if that is working for a couple years?

The infrastructure bill was the one thing I really thought he COULD/WOULD get done.  Can't believe they have had nothing on that yet.

They can't afford it.
