#45: As We Enter Day 5

Today I celebrate my 65th trip around the sun. It's good to be a true Senior Citizen now. With that said, I have seen a lot of presidents during my time on this planet.Ike was the man when I entered this world and unless there is some medical or unfortunate accident, hopefully #45 will not be my last.

I started off last week by offering my hopes, wishes, and prayers to the newest leader of the free world. And I write only what can be reported about progress he has made. Yet, I must accentuate some of the knuckleheads he has employed and the boneheaded statements made. But today will be all FACTS with no "alternative facts".

#45 formally abandoned the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership). Most Americans have no idea what this pact is or what it does. Yet, I have faith that as a successful (questionable) businessman prior to taking office, that #45 knows all the implications of the TPP. He promised to disavow this during his campaign, well, here it is on Day4. Bravo I say even though I have no idea what impact it will have. Some GOP leaders are claiming this is a bad idea while the other side of the aisle is saying, "Good Job".Confusing, you bet.

#45 signed an executive order instituting a government hiring freeze on all employees "except the military". A job freeze by the "greatest job creator God has made". Hmmm, I am confused.

#45 met with congressional leaders (both parties) falsely claiming he lost the popular vote (by almost 3 million votes) because millions of unauthorized immigrants cast illegal votes for Mrs. Clinton.Virtually, there is NO evidence to support this claim and never to the extent #45 claims.

TUESDAY January 24: Today #45 will met with the heads of Ford, GM, and Chrysler.


President Donald Trump’s chief adviser, Kellyanne Conway, is touting “alternative facts.” Which immediately joined “It depends upon what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is” in the Obfuscatory Hall of Fame.(NYTimes)
