    Do you really fail so hard at recognizing that your only defensive strategy to Harry's comments are to attack Harry? You have absolutely zero to say in defense of Trump? Hell, the OP makes reference to the fact that a GOP senator, Mitt Romney, ALSO just destroyed Trump's character in an op-ed today. Do you want to say anything in defense of Trump now? Or is your best option to just attack Mitt Romney as well?

    Harry Reid calling anyone immoral is hypocritical. I remember him lying on the Senate floor about Mitt Romney and then later laughing about it, because he said "it worked". He also made tons of money on really shady Nevada land deals.

    My nephew and his grandson played on the same Lacrosse team. Harry's son sat away from the rest of the parents. I asked my Brother in Law why. He said, "because he is an *******". Now, my Brother in Law is a really nice guy that never says bad things about anyone that I could remember prior, so this blew me away. I heard the grandson is a good kid, so hopefully the family ******* gene had run its course.

    That being said, Trump is not the shining light of morality, or anything close, but we don't need a scumbag like Harry Reid to tell us.

    You are only proving how laughably uneducated you are on Harry Reid and his family's dirty deals.

    But I can't say its a surprise.

    I dont need to defend Trump just enjoying how uneducated you are on your source when it comes to corruption. Of course you don't care because its just another dirty democrat exposing your rank fake hyporacy about being outraged at immorality.

    Thanks for staying predictable once again :)

    LOL! No one has to defend Trump from people like Reid and Romney. They have little credibility. Trump's record in office is his perfect defense.

    LOL! Coming from old Harry "Nuclear Option" Reid that is a compliment. These old washed up political hacks are trying to gain relevance by criticizing Trump.

    Trump has not removed any regulations from the people, just removed regulations that keep people safer, the air and water cleaner, ect...

    I learned a lot about Nixon and improvements to his private property. Nixon owned a home on the ocean at San Clemente. Ernie G. then a client of mine (I was paid a commission on the sale of his home there and a commission again in the SF Bay Area) explained to me the improvements to San Clemente. The home did not come with a helicopter pad. The Feds wanted one there so installed one. Other improvements had to be made to guarantee presidential security which also was paid for by tax dollars. Anyway Ernie told me that 8 agencies had some jurisdiction. Ernie was captured by the FBI at his job in SF over the criminal acts of Nixon in DC and he was deeply interrogated. Though all he had done was manage the Federal installation at San Clemente though the Feds did not own the property.

    I expect some Federal manager oversees all the Trump properties where he stays from time to time.

    Yes yes we all know Donald Trump is a poo poo head because he's not Democrat.

    Every Republican president we've ever had after Reagan has been the worst possible thing to happen to America we're just four years away from the Apocalypse.

    No one believes this garbage anymore it's just the left freaking out because they don't get to control everything all the time.

    That is not the purpose of the regulations he removed. He removed them for being illegal.

    Most of Trump's critics on this forum, as opposed to many of his MSM critics, appear to be well educated and smart. Trump's tactics just seem to blind them so they are unable to accept the reality of what he is doing and how it is working against them. That certainly helps Trump.

    "Is there a way out? And we saw that around the country people are not hopeful. They’re very aware that this person pulled off something unimaginable. To have someone who appears to be an idiot beat the smartest person ever to run for the president of the United States, that takes some evil genius and for him to outsmart us is part of our pain, I think".

    Moore understands the DP base very well which helps him understand Trump. He has a clue but assuming that people who can outsmart you are "evil" is another self defeating snare.

    Regulatory agencies are designed primarily to extract donor money for politicians.
    Which approach would best keep toxic impurities out of your turkey burger - fines from a regulator or criminal prosecution after a grand jury investigation?

    "According to the EPA, the spill occurred when one of its teams was using heavy equipment to enter the Gold King Mine, a suspended mine near Durango. Instead of entering the mine and beginning the process of pumping and treating the contaminated water inside as planned, the team accidentally caused it to flow into the nearby Animas River. Before the spill, water carrying "metals pollution" was flowing into a holding area outside the mine."

    Like clean water? Do not count on the EPA.

    if it's not a regulation, corps will not do it if they can get away with it and when caught they will say it's not a crime

    I recognize that the comments of one of the most amoral politicians in American history are the subject of this thread and I responded accordingly. I also noted my amusement with the amoral Leftists who pretend to care about morality and those who look to Harry Reid for moral guidance. The phony pretenses and abject hypocrisy make for a preposterous spectacle.

    Nope. He's quite capable of defending himself against a pack of hypocrites and I've made no secret of the fact that I am not a socially conservative "values voter".

    If you want to criticize Trump's morality he's fair game, but another thing I find interesting here is how the Left's newfound, i.e., feigned, interest in morality is something that should be suddenly interjected into government.

    I feel no need to attack the man whose morality was viciously and often unfairly attacked by the Left when he was running against an amoral Alinskyite for president in 2012. Now, we're supposed to believe that proggies consider this eeeeeeeeevil "vulture capitalist" who had no heart for humans and animals their beacon of virtue.

    Once again, laughable. Aren't we all having fun? :smile:

    Its refreshing to hear you call him your president. Admitting it starts the healing process. A period of relative peace can be argued, but prosperity doesn't get people to vote for Hope, Change, or MAGA.

    America is only as strong as it's citizens and those that want to plunge us into Communism and Nazism. In other words, the fight between Americans vs. Democrats is pretty clear. Real Americans support the Constitution and the POTUS, no matter what the party is while Democrats do everything they can to seize power and plunge the country further and further towards radicalism.

    Obama made this country weaker and Trump is trying to hold it together and reverse the horrid policies that Democrats wrought upon the population.

    Over the past 21 / 2 years, the Obama administration has published hundreds of rules — on how wheelchairs should be stowed aboard U.S. aircraft, how foreign trade zones should be regulated, how voting assistance should be provided for U.S. citizens overseas and so on.

    There’s a problem, however: Technically speaking, these and about 1,800 other regulations shouldn’t be in effect, because they weren’t reported to Congress as required. Yet there is little that lawmakers or the courts can do about it.

    The situation illustrates the obscure, byzantine process used to create federal regulations — and how easily it can go awry.

    “It’s pretty apparent that the system is broken,” said Curtis Copeland, a retired Congressional Research Service staffer who discovered the issue. “It would seem this is one area where congressional Republicans and Democrats could get together and say: ‘This is crazy. We can fix this.’ ”

    Under a 1996 statute, most federal rules are supposed to be reported to the House and Senate in paper form and to the Government Accountability Office electronically. But since the start of 2012, that hasn’t happened for many of the regulations put out by the Obama administration, either because of bureaucratic oversight or because they were considered too minor to be reported.


    Failing to report many of the rules is a “technical violation” of the statute, “and the law says they can’t take effect,” according to Robert Cramer, the GAO’s managing associate general counsel.

    But there’s another catch: Congress also barred such rules from judicial review. Two federal appeals courts and two district courts have upheld this principle even when the regulation in question was not submitted to Congress as required. Since Congress cannot pass a resolution of disapproval for a rule until it receives it, this means neither lawmakers nor the courts can step in and demand that agencies submit the required paperwork.

    That's depressing. I'm more sanguine on the progress, it's neither acknowledged by the resistance nor reported on by an agenda blinded / driven media.
