Sorry Sir, but it very much IS whataboutery because this thread is about Trump.

. I like his policies as it pertains to Trade, the economy, and defense. Agree with those policies or not, that is the reason I support him despite his personal shortcomings.
What exact defence policies do you think he has done well? Collaboration with enemy states would to me, point him out as a massive defence and security risk.
He reinstated the budget cuts from the sequester period. Attempting to reduce ME troop levels, and pressing NATO nations to chip in the 2% GDP that they all agreed to and have not except for one or two (the U.K. being one that has IIRC).
More misrepresentation by Jimbeaux. NATO members pledged to work towards paying 2% by 2024, which several say they will hit.

More trouble for Warrens hopes? NBC left Warren off their graphic or poll?

Was she polling at 5% so potentially dropping out of the race.

Nope. If you had bothered to read your source:

"The Attorney General is the head of the DOJ and chief law enforcement officer of the federal government."
I read that. If he wishes, the POTUS can override that. Not recommended however.
Which doesn't change the fact that you and Trump are wrong.

Wrong again.
The 2% figure was agreed in 2006.

Those pesky alternative facts, eh Jim?

You lot are hilariously obsessive. Sitting in a corner of your island groveling in a briar patch picking any and all berries related whatsoever to Trump, Trump, Trump while Rome is burning all around you.
I wish you all very good luck with Post Brexit realignment, I truly do. I for one believe it will turn out fine. As a matter of fact, I’m spending more time on the E.U. Negotiations thread, whilst you lot toil on a Trump thread. Now there is a bit of irony for both of us. smile Have a good afternoon

What's burning all around us?

We are going through change, that's all. We're Brits - we can cope.

And yet here you are, in an election year again, trying to foist your mostly provably false gop talking points in a British car forum - the overwhelming majority here cannot vote.

As you constantly say - why are you spending so much time and energy on this? Well over 300 posts in a week or so - surely your time is better spent on the campaign trail in the US?

Anyway, good day to you Jim, enjoy the EU thread - although I'm sure that, again, the irony of you castigating us for showing an interest in the US potus thread whilst you participate in the EU thread is lost on you.

The military is a revered institution in the US and has some very strong political lobbying behind it.

On the other hand nobody gives much of a toss for poor people who become sick.

It's his fourth of fifth attempt at it.

Each time with the "you're all obsessed; sort out your own country before daring to criticise my King" nonsense.

Let’s see, just me battling a squad of you, it stands to reason that I would have to post more to respond.

Indeed. Stoicism is something we're particularly good at IMO.
