The election is long over. This is no longer about whether or not Obama was right or wrong on this or any other issue. At this point, the issue is how Trump is doing as a President on his own.

Presidents Bolsonaro and Trump Meeting in DC

Source: Reuters

There have been discussions in the recent past of the US having a military base in Brazil.

Trump was one of the first world leaders to call Bolsonaro and congratulate him on his election victory.
Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro visited the Central Intelligence Agency’s headquarters on Monday, an unusual move for a foreign head of state that was not on the public agenda for his first official trip to Washington.

The visit underscored Bolsonaro’s embrace of U.S. influence in Latin America to confront what he calls a communist threat against democracy — a theme he remarked on during a dinner on Sunday evening with his ministers and right-wing thinkers.

Presidential advisers, including his official spokesman, had said during the dinner that his agenda on Monday morning would be kept private. But Bolsonaro’s son, Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro, revealed the visit in a Twitter post.

“Going now with the (president) and ministers to the CIA, one of the most respected intelligence agencies in the world,” he wrote. “It will be an excellent opportunity to discuss international topics in the region with experts and technicians of the highest level.”
MAKE BRAZIL GREAT AGAIN.

Obama spent his entire 8 years in office blaming GWB for everything bad during his time in office. The election was never over for Bayrack.

Credit Suisse raises S&P 500 forecast, sees 20% gain for 2019

Source: CNBC
Underneath the stock market’s epic rebound has been a “more favorable” trend that Credit Suisse says will drive the market higher.

The bank dialed up its year-end forecast for the S&P 500 to 3,025 from 2,925 previously. The new outlook calls for a gain of more than 20 percent for full-year 2019 or more than 7 percent from current levels after the big rally to start the year.
Cheerleaders for Failure not happy. Again.
“More specifically, less hawkish comments from the Fed, declining inflation and recession fears, and the potential for a resolution to China trade issues are the primary forces driving volatility and spreads lower, and stocks higher,” he added.

The market has staged a strong comeback with the S&P 500 up 20 percent from its Christmas Eve low when it dipped into a bear market on an intraday basis. Many have credited the massive sell-off to fears of a too-aggressive Federal Reserve and a possible recession. Now with the central bank signaling a “patient” approach to tightening and better-than-expected economic data, the rally may have more room to run.

And he (or you?) is apparently insecure enough that you/he need to keep pointing it out. Ignore Obama. Let Trump stand on his own record, not just in comparison to Obama. Just tell us how good Trump is (assuming that you feel that way), now how much better he is than Obama.

And if Obama really was a terrible President, saying that Trump is better than Obama really isn't saying much, now, is it.

It is as important today to point out the failures, lies and wrong predictions of Obama as it was at the time they happened for many reasons.

1. Obama seeks to continue to make himself relevant politically

2. His loyal disciples are running for president and for seats in Congress and pushing the same failed ideas, lies and wrong predictions.

Socialism must not just be proven wrong. It must be crushed into a fine powder and sprinkled on the ash heap of history and labeled as the failed, thieving and oppressive ideology that it has always been.

Muslim Defends Trump On CNN

Source: CNN

Dr. Qanta Ahmed praised both presidents GWB and Trump as "beloved." Ahmed is a columnist and a Muslim member of the Council of Foreign Relations.

Ahmed's comments indicated that it's a mistake to blame Trump for the New Zealand attack when he is beloved. Ahmed criticized anyone who attacks Trump over Islamophobia and blame him for the xenophobia in New Zealand. Her comments also included the acknowledgement that Muslim Brotherhood front groups routinely make victims of other Muslims in their targeting of innocent civilians.

I'm sure CNN won't be asking her to come back.

"Muslim Defends Trump On CNN"

So we have ONE Muslim defending Don out of 3.5 Million in the USA Although she is outspoken for one day she continues as a British physician specializing in sleep disorders. She is also an author and a newspaper columnist.

CNN Stunned to Find Pro-Trump Latinos: We Want ‘Longer and Taller’ Wall

On Monday’s Erin Burnett OutFront, CNN’s Miguel Marquez noted that 34% of Latinos approved of Trump in a recent CNN poll. He said, as a puzzled Erin Burnett looked on, that though a majority of Latinos disapprove of Trump, there are plenty who live along the U.S.-Mexico border who support Trump, believe that there is a “national emergency” at the border, and would like to see the size of the border wall “doubled” or “tripled.”
Rolando Rodriguez, who lives a mile from the border in McAllen, Texas, said he wants a 2,600-mile border wall that is “longer and taller.”

When asked how much taller he wants the border wall to be, Rodriguez replied, “twice as much at least.”
Rodriguez, who said he supports Trump because of religious issues and “border politics,” added that he believes that the border wall will be a barrier for the “bad people” and not the “good people.”

CNN also found Mayra Gutierrez, who is in the process of getting her U.S. citizenship so she can vote for Trump. She said she supports Trump because of abortion, the economy, and immigration.

“We do have a lot problems here with immigration, and I do support his stance for the wall,” Gutierrez told CNN.
Joacim Hernandez, the president of the Hidalgo County Young Republicans, told the outlet that the last time Trump visited the area, there were a lot of Latinos “that were out there supporting him.”

Marquez’s interviews were consistent with what former longtime Univision anchor María Elena Salinas told CNN in January about Trump’s appeal among a significant number of Latinos. Salinas implied that Trump could have more support among Latinos than conventional wisdom and even polling suggests.

The legendary Spanish-language anchor whom the New York Times once described as the “voice of Hispanic America,” as Breitbart News noted, revealed that she was saddened that many Latinos “are buying some of these arguments against undocumented immigrants” that Trump has been making.

“And it’s very sad to see that our own people, who are immigrants themselves, are attacking these immigrants that are trying to come in, knowing themselves how difficult the situation is in a lot of these Latin American countries,” Salinas said then. “And, you know, they’re buying it, and some people, just like some other Trump supporters, are saying, well, you know, so what if he tells lies, as long as we have lower unemployment among the Latino community.”
Trump, who got more support among Latinos in 2016 than Mitt Romney did in 2012 when Trump received 29% of the Latino vote, has often pointed out that illegal immigration hurts Latino workers and illegal immigrant criminals victimize Hispanics who are in the country legally.

In the 2018 midterm elections, AP’s VoteCast data, exit polls, and other surveys found that Republicans received about a third of the Latino vote even though the mainstream media for two years painted Trump as an anti-Latino “racist.”

Marquez said that though a majority of Latinos disapprove of Trump and his border politics, pro-Trump Latinos believe there is enough support among the community to get Trump re-elected in 2020.

Trump more popular in BLUE NY than Oc-Co Loco and NYC Mayor

Source: Sienna College Poll

Trump trumps the LIBs in NY -- both Oc-Co Loco and NYC Mayor de Blasio.

Trump 36%
Oc-Co Loco 31%
De Blasio 34%

And by the way, De Blasio showed up in New Hampshire for a speech. Only 20 people showed up.

A Gallup poll from last week showed Ocasio-Amazon Job Slayer has great name recognition nationwide, BUT ... the more she opens her mouth, the less people like her.

The same Siena poll showed that a plurality of NYC folks see her as the destroyer of the Amazon jobs. Only 22% see her as any kind of "hero."

Instead of some internal reflection, Oc-Co Loco blames Fox News for her negatives.

Re: Democrats, Republicans and Elections

Democrats losing elections and now want to change ALL the rules.

- Change the Electoral College (takes an Amendment to the Constitution)
- Change the Supreme Court (so Dems can add justices to offset Originalists)
- Offer Reparations to Black Americans (blame people who had nothing to do with slavery -- not smart)

You'd think Dems would have learned after making new rules -- like the Biden Rule, like Harry Reid going nuclear in the Senate and allowing easy confirmation of judges.

When Dems lose, they want to change all the rules; and they had the nerve to claim that Trump wouldn't accept the vote of the 2016 election. So who's feelings are still hurt? Who isn't accepting the result?

As Bayrack said so many times, "Elections have consequences." 55555

And comparing Trump to Obama accomplishes none of that. Explaining Trump's accomplishments and why they are good for America accomplishes what you apparently are trying to do. Saying that he's better than a President you consider a failure is faint praise.
