Trump throws Coulter under the bus just like every other woman he has used
Trump used Coulter, not for sex but for the immigration issue, which he stole from her book. Now lies like a rug about it, same as ever. No "wall" is being built. There are renovations only using "fence". Illegal crossings are soaring. Catch and release is soaring. No one's fault but Trump's alone.
We are into Trump's third year as president and Ingraham Angle is still blaming policy failures on Obama holdovers
When exactly is Trump going to become president of the United States? After 2020? We don't have time for the training wheels to come off.
Maybe Trump's policy failures on immigration are HIS FAULT. Blaming Obama holdovers is ridiculous when Bush 41 cleaned house on accession by firing all the Reagan administration holdovers OVERNIGHT.
This reminds me of nothing so much as the Limbaugh Theorem, not holding the president accountable for his own policies, except now Republicans are doing it.
Trump is doing nothing because that's the way he wants it. It's politics, not policy, and for playing politics with the nation's integrity and security, for that alone he shouldn't be president right now, let alone in 2020.
Trump is every bit the scoundrel now his past life says he always was.

Trump's had strong wage gains in excess of 3% in six out of the last seven months for 80% of workers
Aug: 3.1%
Sep: 3.4%
--
Nov: 3.4%
Dec: 4.2%
Jan: 3.3%
Feb: 3.5%
Keep in mind that wage gains were similarly strong just before and even during the Great Recession.
Alexandria the Great complains of "dark money" in politics but has plenty of her own
Tom Anderson, director of the National Legal and Policy Center's Government Integrity Project, said: "It appears Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her associates ran an off-the-books operation to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars, thus violating the foundation of all campaign finance laws: transparency." ...
Adav Noti, the senior director of the Campaign Legal Center and a former FEC lawyer, said the arrangement was highly unusual and seemed intended to obscure the destination of the funds. "None of that makes any sense," said Noti. "I can't even begin to disentangle that. They're either confused or they're trying to conceal something." ... "It does seem like there's something amiss. I can only think of really two likely possibilities for this sort of pattern of disbursements," said Noti. "One is the scam PAC possibility — they're really just paying themselves and they’re concealing it by using the LLC. The other is that there’s actually another recipient, that the money is going to the LLC and then being disbursed in some other way that they want to conceal."

As of right now, Trump will not win reelection with Michigan
But since only 31 percent of all of those surveyed
said they would definitely vote again for Trump, it shows a problem for
Trump even among those who would be expected to be his most loyal
supporters — the 42 percent who identify as Republican voters. "The vote to re-elect numbers are 31 percent — 11
points below the (Republican) Party identification. That spells trouble
for him," said Porn. "And there are people who are saying they like
him, or are giving him a positive job rating, who are still saying they
won't re-elect him. That gap is a problem." ... For the poll, EPIC-MRA of Lansing randomly surveyed
600 likely voters in Michigan between Sunday and Thursday of this
week. The margin of error is plus or minus 4 percentage points.

Ann Coulter is finally starting to put 2 & 2 together: Does Trump WANT to stop the invasion?
As everyone knows by now, Trump pulled the campaign trigger in 2015 about one month after reading ADIOS AMERICA. He had found his issue. It was not his issue. It became his issue. He had found his angle, his tool.
Immigration restriction marked Trump out from all the other candidates. It got him elected, narrowly. The tilt to the libertarian open borders Mercers with Conway and Bannon in August 2016 nearly did him in. He prematurely tracked to the middle (DACA waffling in Arizona townhall, showing he was never sincere), and once in office, did nothing of substance about the issue. There was no liason to Congress on the issue in the White House, coordinating policy. All the appointments in the White House were opposed to immigration restriction save one here or there, confounding his supporters to this day. It was not a priority, until after the House was lost. None of the cabinet appointments were restrictionists, but for Sessions, whom he neutered early over what really matters, muh MAGA presidency.
Now he returns to immigration, putting it front and center as a matter of what, policy? No, as a matter of the reelection campaign, as it was in the beginning. It's an election tool, a campaign issue like abortion has been for decades. He never really intended to do anything about it, and doesn't now, except in a half-hearted kind of way where if he gets lucky with it here and there as a matter of policy, so much the better. That keeps the believers believing, as does the dumpster fire he's created at the border. He keeps signaling over and over again since losing the House how he wants more immigrants to come here than ever before. Well they're coming over like never before! Trump created the National Emergency. Trump created the surge at the border. He wanted it. He needs it. We are in a political campaign.
Donald Trump will go down in history as the man who forever put the stink on running as an immigration restrictionist, which is why you never trust a "former" Democrat with the leadership of your party. It ain't called stupid for nothin'. It was Ronald Reagan, after all, who started us down the road to exporting all those jobs Trump now says he wants to bring back.
How's that working out for you on this winter day reporting a mere 20,000 new payrolls in February?
We are screwed. "Conservatives" and "Republicans" have failed us, utterly. And that much Coulter already knows.

Trump as state capitalist: Once was a one-off, twice is a Freudian slip
Trump's brain has no room for the individual qua individual, only for the individual as representative of a brand. The higher reality, the organizing principle of society is the group and the corporation, without which the individual doesn't exist. In that sense he's a good Aristotelian:
This is just stupid: Trump is causing the invasion, he wants the invasion, he needs the invasion!
Trump will veto the bill. There aren't enough votes to override. The National Emergency must and will continue! There's another election coming you fool.

ANYBODY who runs for president now as a Democrat is an anti-Semite
How quickly they drop out now is an index of their disagreement with the Democrat Party's new embrace of anti-Semitism.
Way to go, Sherrod Brownie! Didn't take you even one day!
The New York Times' Paul Krugman: No anti-Semitic enemies to the left, only to the right!

Contra Dan Henninger of the WSJ, this is hardly the hottest job market in half a century when Obama's was actually better, which ain't sayin' much
This past weekend, The Wall Street Journal published a series of stories titled “Inside the Hottest Job Market in Half a Century.” As far as I’m concerned, this jobs record is the story of the year. The Journal’s articles transformed a year of economic data into the new daily reality of getting paid to work in America. ... It requires a remarkable degree of obtuseness to stare at the policy success of the past two years and pretend it hasn’t happened. Democrats are doing exactly that. Conservatives should pocket the Trump presidency’s Reaganesque policies for massively matching job producers with job seekers.
There's nothing obtuse about the facts, which show that the current job recovery is nothing out of the ordinary and simply continues the recovery which began despite Obama. The fact is that since the election of Trump in 2016 there's actually been a slow down in the rate of job growth compared with the immediately preceding, more robust period from 2013-2016.
Reaganesque policy under Trump hasn't produced a better outcome for job growth compared with that period, which was the immediate result of the John Boehner-Barack Obama deal to make the Bush tax cuts permanent starting in 2013.
For all the bluster by Trump-aligned organs in the media, especially at The Wall Street Journal, Fox and on talk radio, Trump's results so far also haven't come close to matching the pre-2000 era of job creation.
The economy shrank after the end of the 20th century, and we're still trying to recover to the former glory, nineteen years later.
So far, no one has a solution. Short of a giant spending cut and an actual structural commitment to onshoring instead of offshoring, there will not be one.
Repeal the 22nd Amendment, 2019 edition
Limiting the president to two terms when House and Senate members are not so limited increases the political power of the legislative over the executive, contrary to the founders' vision of separated and balanced powers. The executive is automatically lame on reelection as a consequence, and the Congress knows it and exploits it.
The growth of the so-called "imperial presidency" in the post-war has been simply a response to this infringement on the executive. To be sure the individual responses of the executive often become offenses in and of themselves, but nothing has been more offensive in the history of the Republic than Congress' sorry record of unimpeded theft of the American people's money and its headlong leap into the spending abyss.
Like guilty dogs caught peeing on the carpet of the Constitution, the Congress occasionally bows its head and cedes a little power back to the executive in one form or another, the latest example on display being the National Emergencies Act of 1976. With that the Congress is quite content to let the executive take all the political heat for making the difficult decisions in extremis while posturing as defenders of the Constitution. They win both ways, and the president loses. Congress' incumbents know they'll be back for the long run, but the president won't.
Repealing the 22nd Amendment would actually put more of the onus on Congress these poseurs to do their damn job for a change instead of dumping it all on one person while crying "Tyranny!" after he acts to clean up their puddle. And that's why it won't happen.
But it still should.
Why Twitter is better than Facebook
Facebook makes you go to all the trouble of unfriending people for what they believe whereas Twitter saves you a step by automatically unfriending you for that. Much more efficient.

The illusion of accomplishment: Trump's had just 3 quarters out of 8 with real GDP at 3% or higher, and no new wall
President Trump, now in the third year of his term, is struggling to maintain the illusion of accomplishment as some of his biggest promises remain unfulfilled. ... Trump wrote in his book “The Art of the Deal” that he “plays to people’s fantasies.” He still does. ... “He kind of talked himself into a corner in promoting the wall all the time and gave Democrats an opportunity to stymie him just by refusing to pay for a wall,” said Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies. Krikorian, whose group supports more restrictive immigration policies and thus is allied with Trump on some issues, disagrees with the president’s portrayal of a wall as critical to border security. The president felt he had to declare a national emergency “because he has made the wall such a high-profile objective,” Krikorian said. “It's important, but it’s not job one and it’s certainly not the reason we have a crisis at the border.”

Democrat Governor of MI Gretchen Whitmer lied to the voters in October 2016 when she denied she'd raise gasoline taxes by 20 cents a gallon
Yeah, she REALLY meant 45 cents, but couldn't win on that!
This weasel, similar to Democrat Bill Clinton in 1992, now says Gas tax hike 'not always my plan':
Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer called Tuesday for nearly tripling Michigan's per-gallon gas tax — and making the state home to the country's highest fuel taxes — in order to improve aging roads that she warned would only get worse without a major influx of new spending.
Whitmer's plan would increase the current 26-cents-per-gallon tax by 45 cents — going against what she said in a WOOD TV8 gubernatorial debate in October. When then-Republican nominee Bill Schuette said Whtimer wanted to increase the gas tax by 20 cents, she said that was "ridiculous" and "nonsense."

Democrats have done nothing about their Ralph Northam Virginia blackface and rapist problems in over a month, expect the same on their anti-Semitism problems in Minnesota, Michigan and New York House Districts
You'll notice how four freshmen women Democrats have fled this winter identity train wreck like penguins on ice and have escaped undetected by the media into the sea of anonymity.
Insane new Democrat governor of Michigan wants to raise regressive gasoline tax to highest in the nation
According to The Tax Foundation, a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit focused on tax policy, Michigan has the sixth highest gasoline tax nationally at 44.13 cents per gallon. The governor’s proposed 45-cent increase would push Michigan into the top spot, overtaking Pennsylvania’s current high of 58.7 cents per gallon.
