    Hang on - lets run by that again.......

    Are you honestly saying that just because Trump says something that means Trump has not said it?

    Because they wished they ONLY had to deal wth a terrible incident; but at least now everyone is talking about how bad things actually are in Sweden.

    Trump feels the need to feel popular and he has said so multiple times

    Your point? Exit polling during the election reveals that Trump won on the issues; now he is doing the things people want him to do.

    Whatever some arbitrary poll says about people feel about him is obviously of no concern to anyone but the people who need some validation that the populace is against Trump. They're not.

    Lol at their poll. 51% disapproval, apparently 45% calling for impeachment. Practically nobody out there just thinks he's doing a bad job. You either approve (45%), or you want him impeached (45%), or you don't like him but don't want him impeached (6%).

    The electorate is so radicalised.

    What "things"

    Waste time Tweeting misinformation?

    Work out ways to rip off the American public by building a Kleptocracy?

    Take more vacations than any other president in the first couple of weeks?

    Flout the constitution and the emoulients clause?

    For whatever reason, reality seems to be moving in the opposite direction you seem to be moving. Maybe some people will forgive this because you live in a different country, but since you waste majority of your time here, that isn't okay with me.

    One way of course is to mount a Ban on publications like
    The New York Times.
    We the People are still in charge.
    Or haven't the weenies at the N.Y.Times noticed.
    We the people spoke quietly any w/o any stick in 2010.
    Also in 2014 and 2016.
    This is a matter of Americanized FACT.
    Who should really give a FiG what some Weenies in New York city think.
    Their city is Impossible to control.Mayor Guiliani did what he could.
    Mayor Koch was likeable but couldn't tame it's radical elements.
    Mayor Ed Koch was also a lifetime ward of cushy N.Y.rent control.
    That benefitted him.No need for some - Peoples Court- - to decide that.
    I remember the time I went thru N.Y.City.I couldn't wait to get out.
    This was in the mid-70's.
    If the movie - Prisoner of Second Avenue - { 1975 } means anything.
    As if the lessons of Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis in :
    - The Out of Towners - {1970} holds any weight.

    Bush should have been charged with war crimes

    And there are enough people who remember how we were all dragged into unnecessary wars to feel very uncomfortable with the way the Trump administration is heading

    The more Trump costs the MSM elites the more they'll spew their venom.

    They think if it's not herd-think there must be a bloodbath behind the scenes, since they're not allowed to think for themselves or have opposing viewpoints.

    What you wrote up to the question mark doesn't even make sense as an English language sentence.
