US Politics Thread

Traditionally, the White House flag is flown at half mast during the whole internment of a public figure. It was lowered, and then at Trump's order, raised again hours later.

Veterans groups wrote to Trump, asking him to reconsider, which he eventually has.

What a class act he is. Oh, and Fox News on the story? "Trump orders flags flown at half-staff until McCain burial".
 
Trump has been on TV touting his great new deal with Mexico. There are a few problems with his assessment, though.

First, the deal doesn't change very much at all. For the worst deal in the World, it didn't take much to make it great.

Second, Canada still have to approve it, because the US are still in NAFTA. If the US wants to leave NAFTA, then Congress has to approve it, not just Trump. That takes a minimum of 90 days.

Now, here is where it gets interesting. If Canada don't agree by Friday, then the 90 days goes up to the inauguration of the new Mexican President, and he's against this agreement. In short, nothing has changed, and the likelihood is nothing will.
 
Very disturbing picture this ... how could this be really happening?

That sounds very much like his 'peace' deal with North Korea.
 
Trump has stopped Federal pay increases due soon, stating that they couldn't afford them. He could afford to give Billionaires tax cuts, but not pay honest hard working Americans in real jobs.

Also, the EU offered to drop all tariffs on cars and trucks. Trump has said no. One has to wonder what he wants, as it is exactly what he asked for. Has he got dementia?

He has also threatened to leave the WTO. :lol::lol::lol::lol: Idiot.
