Best president ever

Hey look, its the one guy who still thinks this is a joke. 

Why I'm laughing then?

Sounds like he could save some tax money by firing his councellors then. I mean, why keep them around when he can get free advice from the experts at Fox News?



That's not news. Trump has been getting 100% of his news from Fox News since his campaign. He's a president that is openly telling people to watch a private television channel on a regular basis. His warped vision of the world doesn't only come from his ignorance, also from from TV programs that directly tell him what to do.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

One person does not equal to the whole of fox news. Again, the regressive left tries to make everything seem a much bigger deal than it is. The currency of the left is fake outrage. By all means, keep it up and you'll put trump in office again.

Get used to it. Until he's impeached, resigned, or dead -the world is going to hate him.

I'm not a fan of Fox News but CNN and MSNBC are just as bad

Fox News is nothing but a propaganda machine for the right wing. They are absolutely shameless.

I mean, all big news organization are always pushing their own agenda. I only really follow CNN in the morning and while eating my meals at home but I know they are pushing their own agenda and have been caught editing videos regarding BLM/police shooting to make them seem less volatile. That being said, Fox News are, in my opinion, the worst of the worst. It's just a giant circle jerk in there and most of their host, specially that brain dead sean hannity, are blatantly biased. I can't stand any of them and I'm not surprised there is a cultutre of the men being despicable and abusive asswipes.

OT: Donald Trump is an attention whore, plain and simple. He loves having all eyes on him and he'll do anthing to get it. He didn't have to make an announcement to announce his decision but he wanted everybody to have eyes on him when he did. As far as I understand it, the accord was just a pact of goodwill, it wasn't a binding document, countries were not obligated to do anything, just acknowledge that climate is changing and that steps should be taken to help minimize the heating of the planet. This dummy is making my head hurt.

Ah, the regressive left again. Nice.

Ok, so if the next president decides to rejoin the Paris Climate Deal or similar, and next day some guy at CNN, MSNBC or Washington Post comes out and says that the president called him for councel right before making the decision, there would be no reactions?



There is a reason he always only mentions Fox News on Twitter as "good media" and condemns every other big news station. He wants it to be the only media everyone listens to and he tries everything to get the people at Fox News to be his "friends" so that they will support everything he does and condemn everything he condemns.

It's not as extreme as what some dictators on this planet do who simply close all the media they don't like but what he does has also nothing to do with a democracy anymore.

I understand what it meant. But at the same time you have to keep in mind what that says about the US. Us not supporting it is us saying we're not going to recognize climate change as real. That makes us the only country to be like that. Keep in mind Nicaragua didnt sign it because it wasn't as pro-environment as they wanted and Syria couldn't because theyre all fucked up and weren't present. The US left because it doesn't believe in climate change.

That'd be as if there was a world wide agreement saying "we all know the earth is a sphere" and the US exits it saying, "No. The earth is flat and is supported by elephants which are supported by a tortoise. You understand how stupid it makes us look? We already look bad for not using the metric system... this country is an embarassment
