Funny how Trump was killed for criticizing Cali during their fire crisis.  For allowing - through poor planning maintenance - it to be as bad as it was.

Now, in the Amazon?  Critics do abound.

No one was setting fires in California to clear cut forest for short term economic gain...

Not to mention that Trimp’s criticism was a fact less ploy to withhold federal assistance to the state.

But you know who he did jump to the defense of when his country was dealing with massive fires, without precondition or critiques?

One guess.

You have a problem with Trump disagreeing with the Fed chair, Josh?

Trump claimed he had talked to the Chinese over the weekend. The Chinese foreign ministry said they were unaware of such calls -

Its not OK for Trump to believe Putin over his own people (mantra from left) but believing the Chinese is quite OK.

Right because there is zero precedent for Trimp’s people saying one thing, then being contradicted by the spokespeople for the other side.

I’m very sure there are tariff negotiations that happen between the two sides all the time, and China feels no need to lie about them or contradict the administrations assertions.

But in this case Trump lies about talks that didn’t happen. And it wasn’t the only lie he told during the G7. Not even close. But you still take everything he says as gold. It’s quite pathetic.

A) not Josh.

B) your post was about decorum while you support the least decorous POTUS in our history. Something you have no response to which is why you changed the subject.

C) I have a problem with the President calling the fed chair an enemy of the United States, yes.

D) and yes I have a problem with any president publicly registering their discontent in order to influence the judgments of a body that is supposed to remain independent.

Trump comes back from G7 and best he can do is tweet again criticizing the media for the nuking of hurricanes story, which isn't even being reported on today.

But kiidcarter8 thinks Josh really needs to grow up.

American farmers have become collateral damage in a trade war that Mr. Trump began to help manufacturers and other companies that he believes have been hurt by China’s “unfair” trade practices.

More than a year into the trade dispute, sales of American soybeans, pork, wheat and other agricultural products to China have dried up as Beijing retaliates against Mr. Trump’s tariffs on Chinese imports. Lucrative contracts that farmers long relied on for a significant source of income have evaporated, with Chinese buyers looking to other nations like Brazil and Canada to get the commodities they need. Farm bankruptcy filings in the year through June were up 13 percent from 2018 and loan delinquency rates are on the rise, according to the American Farm Bureau.

Believe Putin over the entire US intelligence community v. disbelieve the off the cuff comment of someone who repeatedly lies about people calling him.... yeah, you are the king of moronic false equivalencies.

Colon cerebellum, indeed.   You've summed up the rectal-cranial inversion here neatly.

Yeah fake news, thats the ticket.  And fake numbers provided by the American Farm Bureau, I assume.

And isn't like anyone who gets their news from a source other than Cable TV hasn't read this story fifteen times already from fifteen other places.  heck, we posted some just a few days ago.

But any and all facts that point to Trimp not being the Savior That Was Promised will be summarily rejected, all while kiidcarter8 pretends he isn't a supporter.  So who do you like on the democratic side today, kiidcarter8?  LOL.  Just kidding.  We don't care and all know you are full of shit.

Yeah, how dare the NYT report pesky facts regarding the predictable effects of Trump's easy to win trade wars. You have no factual counter argument, no trade numbers to dispute the NYT.

Don't you want Trump voters to change and vote for the Democrat?  I would think you would be interested

Strong hint here
