Trump should NEVER use nuclear button: Missile launchers say he's WORSE than first feared

The 17 veterans, who were responsible for firing nuclear missiles if ever ordered to by previous US presidents, said needed to be stripped of his power.

  They said he and any other future president should not be placed in a position where they alone have sole authority to launch a nuclear weapon.

  Mr Trump, they said in an open letter, had appeared unsuited to such responsibility during the US election campaign and had only proved this since.

The letter said: "In the final weeks of the presidential election, we sounded our alarm over Donald Trump's fitness to serve as commander-in-chief, with absolute authority over the nation's nuclear arsenal.  "One year into the Trump presidency, our alarm has only intensified and we must raise our voices again.

The president has had ample opportunity to educate and humble himself to the grave responsibilities of his office.  "Instead, he consistently shows himself to be easily baited, stubborn in his ignorance of world politics and diplomacy, and quick to brandish nuclear threats.

The reality of this presidency is worse than we feared.". They said Mr Trump's bizarre Twitter outbursts against North Korea and Kim Jong-un had puttee USA on "collision course" for war with the hermit state.

And they said conciliatory comments from South Korea, and the recent thawing in relations between north and south, had given Mr Trump the impression his reckless comments were working.  They said Mr Trump inability to grasp the severity of the situation meant America and the world was more at risk than ever. .

The letter said: "Every one of these episodes points to a flaw in the nuclear launch process that poses a clear and present danger to the country and the world: every American president has absolute authority to order the first use of nuclear weapons.

  "We and our nation cannot abide being hostages to the mood swings of a petulant and foolish commander-in-chief.

"No individual, especially Donald Trump, should hold the absolute power to destroy nations.   "That is a clear lesson of this presidency and one that we, as former stewards of the launch keys, embrace with full conviction.

Trump Screws Lying Democrats & 'Shithole' Countries, Tells DACA Dreamers 'Where To Go' - Duration: 4:30.

President Donald Trump is being excoriated by the mainstream media over his alleged comments

about third-world countries.

According to Congressmen present in a meeting in the Oval Office on immigration, Trump lashed

out, asking them why they are insisting America take in illegal immigrants from "shithole"

countries.

Luckily, Trump doesn't buckle to the breathless reporting by the fake news, and he freaked

them out over his new plans for DACA Dreamers, making clear "where they could all go."

President Trump has been attempting to reach a bipartisan consensus regarding a few different

issues that seem to be tied together.

One is the Southern border wall, of course, which is the last thing any Democrat wants

to endorse.

Building the border wall is also something many globalist Republicans don't want, which

leaves Trump having to tie it to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, illegal

aliens.

Or, so we thought, because after the president put his best foot forward, trying to negotiate

a deal, the lying Democrats screwed him, once again.

Luckily, Trump posted several tweets going over the fake news reporting, so we would

all know what really went on since our mainstream media can't be trusted to tell us the truth.

The president tweeted, "The so-called bipartisan DACA deal presented yesterday to myself and

a group of Republican Senators and Congressmen was a big step backwards.

Wall was not properly funded, Chain & Lottery were made worse and USA would be forced to

take large numbers of people from high crime countries which are doing badly.

I want a merit-based system of immigration and people who will help take our country

to the next level.

I want safety and security for our people."

He went on, "I want to stop the massive inflow of drugs.

I want to fund our military, not do a Dem defund.

Because of the Democrats not being interested in life and safety, DACA has now taken a big

step backwards.

The Dems will threaten 'shutdown,' but what they are really doing is shutting down

our military, at a time we need it most.

Get smart, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

Lastly, he tweeted, "The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this

was not the language used.

What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made – a big setback for DACA!

Sadly, Democrats want to stop paying our troops and government workers in order to give a

sweetheart deal, not a fair deal, for DACA.

Take care of our Military, and our Country, FIRST!"

Trump is explaining his frustrations, and he is making it clear: If the Democrats want

to play games, he'll play games.

He is also making it clear that he will tell those DACA "kids" to get the hell out

of here.

I'm not sure if Trump said "shithole" when referring to third-world countries, but

good for him if he did.

Can anyone blame him?

He's trying to do what the American people elected him to do, and these clowns are worried

about illegal aliens.

— TrumpGirl (@TrumpRockNRolls) January 12, 2018

According to The Washington Post, "President Trump grew frustrated with lawmakers Thursday

in the Oval Office when they discussed protecting immigrants from Haiti, El Salvador and African

countries as part of a bipartisan immigration deal, according to several people briefed

on the meeting."

"Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?"

Trump said, according to these people, referring to countries mentioned by the lawmakers.

Here's the key to why the president was so pissed off: When Trump claims, "Wall

was not properly funded, Chain & Lottery were made worse," this means the Democrats want

chain migration – where, if one immigrant is in the country, they can bring in their

whole entire family with them – and the "lottery" immigration system, which bases

immigration on a lottery not merit-based.

They want all of this but not to fund the wall?

I guess in the face of those facts, I'd be saying a lot more than just "shithole"

countries.

It's a wonder the president didn't throw every dirty Democrat out of the Oval.

The useful idiots are all focused on the word "shithole" when we have real issues going

on in this country.

You've got to be shaking your head at the fake news.

The president's frustrations are real as he fights for every one of us.

I really don't know how he deals with these idiots on a daily basis.

I'd want to slam back some good bourbon every night.

Thank God, he is a fighter, who won't give up until America is made great again.

Libs Meltdown Over Trump "S**thole" Comment, Forget What Kennedy Said 53 Yrs Ago - Duration: 4:16.

Another day, another faux moral outrage. This time, the media and the left have worked themselves

into a tizzy because Donald Trump allegedly used the word "s**thole" to describe some

of the poorest, most crime-ridden places on earth… and telling the blunt truth is now

off limits.

While liberals yet again call the president a racist, they seem to be conveniently ignoring

the other times lawmakers have spoken bluntly about troubled parts of the world — including

one of the left's larger than life "heroes," Ted Kennedy.

During the debate over the 1965 Immigration Act, which paved the way for the mass migration

and border issues we now face, the famous Kennedy brother didn't exactly use the word

"s**thole" to describe the same countries Trump was describing, but he got pretty close.

"First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed

bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same," he pledged during

an address. We'll get back to how well that promise aged in a moment.

"Contrary to the charges in some quarters, [the bill] will not inundate America with

immigrants from any one country or area, or the most populated and deprived nations of

Africa and Asia," Ted Kennedy declared. Emphasis added.

Then and now, some 50 plus years later, the left had no problem with "the lion of the

senate" calling Africa and Asian countries "deprived nations." This may not be as

blunt as President Trump's supposed comment, but it means the same thing: Places like Africa,

many parts of Asia, and Central America have serious problems.

Crime is off the charts. There are gang-controlled slums. They're deprived. They're — you

might say — shi… er, you know the rest.

What about Ted Kennedy's promise to the country, anyway? America wouldn't be inundated

with immigrants "from any one area," he pledged, and "our cities will not be flooded

with a million immigrants annually." Where would you get such a backwards idea?

Here we are in 2018: America takes in over one million legal immigrants… not in a decade,

not since Kennedy made his promise, but every single year.

The U.S. has the most immigrants of any country on earth, with an estimated 47 million in

2015. That number is certainly dramatically higher when illegal aliens are included. The

exact number is hard to estimated because, well, they're undocumented.

"The Center's preliminary estimate of the unauthorized immigrant population in 2016

is 11.3 million," Pew Research Center reported.

Data also shows that in 2015, a full 50 percent of U.S. immigrants came from Mexico, directly

disputing Kennedy's promise when the current immigration law was being passed. Sixteen

percent came from Central America, and 13 percent came from Asia.

Only 5 percent came from Europe or Canada.

And Trump's controversial "s**thole" comment, if it was even actually said? The

United Nations backs him up, although of course not using that word.

The UN's own Human Development Report looks at factors like poverty, crime, and standard

of living across the globe. "Norway cinches the spot as the overall best country to live

in, in the world," reported QZ.com.

Meanwhile, "Haiti remains the poorest country in the Americas and one of the poorest in

the world," explained The World Bank.

"The level of crime in Haiti should be regarded as beyond horrific. There are no 'safe'

areas," admitted World Nomads, a travel information resource.

"There is a very real danger of violent crime everywhere in Haiti, and this includes

but is not limited to assault, armed robbery, murder, kidnapping, rape and any combination

of the above," continued the travel site.

In other words… it's a s**thole!

We've reached a very strange place when being honest — even bluntly so — is now

attacked and called "racist."

When the truth becomes foreign and we're expected to play along with politically-correct

fantasies and false narratives, something has gone terribly wrong.

Major California Democrat Goes Rogue, Openly Supports Trump's Top Priority Live On TV - Duration: 3:13.

It's taken them a year to figure it out.

But some Democrats have discovered that President Trump really does know how to get his agenda

implemented.

In other words, all that talk about "winning" was not just bluster.

He outlined what he wanted to get done, and has largely accomplished that agenda in his

first term.

What remains to be finalized are immigration issues and the replacement for Obamacare.

And even some of those goals have been accomplished via executive orders.

Obamacare has been largely gutted, and now exists mostly in name only.

And the border wall is coming regardless of what Nancy Pelosi and her pals want.

More and more cracks are appearing in the Democratic opposition to the border wall.

Now, Democratic congresswoman from California Jackie Speier has announced that she is ready

to work with the president.

And it's safe to assume that if one Democratic member of Congress is ready to cooperate on

the wall, there are many more of the same persuasion who have simply not made their

positions public yet.

Rep. Jackie Speier, D-Calif., broke ranks with Democratic leaders on Thursday and said

she is willing to work with President Trump and congressional Republicans on legalizing

the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program in return for border wall funding.

"I'm willing to go, you know, midway with the president and the Republicans to fund

higher-tech walls along our border, more border security, enhanced measures, but I really

feel very strongly that our DACA kids need to be protected," Speier told MSNBC host

Craig Melvin, who seemed stunned by the statement.

This is probably all the heresy a Democrat can utter without getting excommunicated from

the party.

And it mirrors the position recently published by the Washington Post.

So what we might have here is a coordinated effort to at least take part of the credit

for accomplishing something.

After all, they certainly don't want to be seen as just sitting around irrelevant

as the Democrats did during the president's tax bill success.

"'To be clear, I want to clarify.

You are okay with giving the president his wall in exchange for DACA?'

Melvin asked.

"'I would be willing to give the president a high-tech wall, willing to give him some

amount of money to build his wall to a certain degree,' Speier said."

We have all the makings of successfully passing legislation addressing these issues.

It's just a matter of working out the details along with plenty of political theater to

satisfy supporters in both parties.

Proving they are yesterday's leaders, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority

Leader Chuck Schumer have both previously insisted the Democratic Party would not compromise

on that request.

Those two offer nothing of value to the American people and are actually a drag on their own

party.

However, in the finest of political traditions, they remain either unaware of, or indifferent

to, their own uselessness.

At least Pelosi and Schumer do one thing well.

They demonstrate the sort of leaders who should be forced into retirement.

Meanwhile, they can watch a true leader, President Trump, work with selected members of the Democratic

Party to move forward his agenda.

It's something to behold.

Donald Trump Must Apologize For 'Sh**hole Countries' Remarks

Following his alleged "sh**hole countries" remarks, President Donald Trump is now facing

outrage from African Union countries.

On Friday, African Union Mission in Washington released a statement on Trump's alleged

"racist" comments against immigrants from El Salvador, Haiti, and African nations.

The group, which represents African countries, was "frankly alarmed" and "outraged"

by the president's derogatory remarks on Thursday.

According to CNN, the African Union is demanding Trump apologize and retract his controversial

comments

In the official statement, the union reiterated that they strongly condemn such remarks, adding

that there is a "huge misunderstanding of the African continent and the people by the

current administration."

The group also suggested that a dialogue between Trump's administration and African countries

must take place to clear the issues once and for all.

With the African Union's outrage over Trump's "sh**hole countries" remarks, diplomats

and analysts believe it could have a negative effect on U.S. companies doing business in

the said countries.

POTUS Trump Tweets After 'S hole' Storm 'Dems Intent on Having - Duration: 2:47.

POTUS

Trump Tweets After �S hole� Storm �Dems Intent on Having People, Drugs Pour Across

Border�, �My Duty to Protect All Americans�

President Donald Trump posted his first comments about immigration reform on Twitter late Thursday

night since the Washington Post reported on his allegedly saying he wanted less people

from �shithole countries� let in the U.S. during an immigration meeting with lawmakers

earlier Thursday in the Oval Office.

�The Democrats seem intent on having people and drugs pour into our country from the Southern

Border, risking thousands of lives in the process.

It is my duty to protect the lives and safety of all Americans.

We must build a Great Wall, think Merit and end Lottery & Chain.

USA!�

The Post reported Trump�s alleged comments:

President Trump grew frustrated with lawmakers Thursday in the Oval Office when they discussed

protecting immigrants from Haiti, El Salvador and African countries as part of a bipartisan

immigration deal, according to several people briefed on the meeting.

�Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?� Trump said,

according to these people, referring to countries mentioned by the lawmakers.

Trump then suggested that the United States should instead bring more people from countries

such as Norway, whose prime minister he met with Wednesday.

The president, according to a White House official, also suggested he would be open

to more immigrants from Asian countries because he felt they help the United States economically.

In addition, the president singled out Haiti, telling lawmakers that immigrants from that

country must be left out of any deal, these people said.

�Why do we need more Haitians?� Trump said, according to people familiar with the

meeting.

�Take them out.�

End excerpt.

Earlier, Principal Deputy White House Press Secretary Raj Shah sent out a statement to

reporters that expounded on Trump�s immigration principals, but did not deny the Post�s

report.

Olbermann Threatens 'Weakling' Trump – Will Remove Him from Office, Throw His Family in Prison - Duration: 1:44.

Keith Olbermann desperately needs help.

Trump derangement syndrome is strong with him.

Even though he said last November he was retiring from political commentary, Keith can't help

but bash President Trump whenever possible.

Check this out…

From Downtrend:

It's been really hard to craft a headline today because we got a memo that Facebook

is blocking anything with the word "shithole" in it and thanks to the liberals, "shithole"

is all there is to write about.

Most shithole stories involve the collective liberal freak-out over the fake news story

that President Trump called some shithole countries shitholes.

This is Trump and shithole related, but involves basement-dweller Keith Olberman threatening

Trump's family and calling them shitholes.

Did I get enough "shitholes" in the first paragraph to make up for the lack of "shitholes"

in the headline?

Olbermann claimed in November 2017 that Trump has done more damage to America than ISIS

and Osama bin Laden combined, Fox News:

"You think that bin Laden did less to damage America than President Trump?"

McCain asked, to which Olbermann immediately replied, "Yes."

McCain went on to say, "rhetoric like that is so damaging," before defending her brother's

service in the Iraq war, saying the comparison between Trump and bin Laden, the latter of

whom "was dedicated to the destruction of … everything that we hold dear," was unbelievable.

"How do people like us find common ground," McCain asked, adding that she was exhausted

with the behavior on both sides of politics.

"Do you want President Trump to fail?

Do you want America to fail?

I'm genuinely curious," McCain said.

Go home, Keith.

You're drunk!

Anderson Cooper, John Legend & Others Slam Donald Trump for 'Racist' 'S--thole Countries' Comment - Duration: 2:49.

Anderson Cooper, John Legend & Others Slam Donald Trump for 'Racist' 'S--thole Countries'

Comment

President Donald Trump was heavily criticized Thursday for comments made about immigrants

from what he called "s–thole" countries during a meeting with lawmakers.

The Washington Post reported the president, 71, became frustrated during the meeting when

they discussed protections for immigrants from Haiti, El Salvador and Africa.

"Why are we having all these people from s–thole countries come here?"

Trump said, according to the Post.

Anderson Cooper made an emotional statement defending Haiti Thursday night on CNN, saying,

"Let me be clear, the people of Haiti have been through more, withstood more, fought

back against more injustice than our President ever has."

"I was taught math in high school by a Haitian immigrant named Yves Volel, who worked hard,

dedicated himself to teaching kids," he said.

"He ultimately returned to Haiti and was assassinated while running for president."

The Anderson Cooper 360° anchor continued speaking in favor of the Haitian people.

"I have never met a Haitian who isn't strong," Cooper continued.

"You have to be to survive in a place where the government has often abandoned its people.

Where opportunities are few and where Mother Nature has punished the people far more than

anyone should ever be punished."

He became emotional as he described the people he had encountered in the aftermath of its

devastating earthquake.

"I was there when the 5-year-old boy named Monley was rescued after being buried for

more than seven days," he said, his voice growing thick.

"Do you know what strength it takes to survive on rainwater buried under concrete — a 5-year-old

boy?"

"Haitians slap your hand hard when they shake it," Cooper said.

"They look you in the eye, they do not blink.

They stand tall.

They have dignity.

A dignity many in this White House could learn from.

A dignity the president with all his money and power could learn from as well."

He concluded, "On the eve of the anniversary of the earthquake, on this day when this president

has said what he has about Haitians, we hope the people in Haiti listening tonight in Port

Au Prince and Jacmel, and Miami and elsewhere – we hope they know our thoughts are with

them, and our love is with them.

John Legend tweeted against Trump after the news broke, calling him "racist."

"The president is a racist.

He has been for his entire public life," he tweeted.

"If you vote(d) for him, you do so because of that or despite that.

We need a multi-racial anti-racist coalition to defeat him and try to heal our nation."

Broadway actor Ben Platt, Chelsea Clinton, Questlove, Patton Oswalt and Ben Stiller also

reacted on Twitter.

"The only s–thole is Tr*mp," Platt tweeted, while Clinton wrote, "Mr. President, immigrants

from El Salvador, Haiti and the 54 countries in Africa likely helped build your buildings.

They've certainly helped build our country.

cc @POTUS."

Former Mexican President Vicente Fox tweeted and created a poll, asking, "If @realDonaldTrump

would've said those racist comments while campaigning, plus his other barbaric comments;

do you think it would have changed the outcome?"

Don Lemon also criticized the president on CNN Tonight saying his comments didn't leave

him outraged because he "already knew" Trump was "racist."

"The president of the United States is racist.

A lot of us already knew that."

Lemon urged Trump's supported to do "some self-examination," saying, "What does

it say about you that no matter what, no matter what, you continue to make excuses for this

man, for his vile behavior?

Doesn't that make you just as bad, if not worse than him?"

Seth Meyers also addressed Trump's comments on Thursday's Late Night.

He introduced a new segment called "Seth Has to Walk Away For a Minute," in which

he fittingly walked away from his desk.

His voice was heard from offscreen, muttering, "At what point do you just have some common

decency, some human emotion?"

Late Night Hosts Bash Trump For 'Racist' Complaint

About Immigrants From 'S***hole Countries'

Jimmy Kimmel, 50, and other late night talk show hosts clapped back at Donald Trump, 71,

on Jan. 11, when they slammed him for his "sh**hole countries" comment.

If you haven't heard by now, President Trump reportedly bashed immigrants from mainly black

and Latino countries and suggested that the U.S. should instead bring more people in from

countries like Norway.

Jimmy responded to Trump's comments Thursday evening by saying, "I'm sure the fact

the countries he described as 'sh**holes' are mostly populated by people of color, and

the people he wants from Norway are not, is a coincidence."

Meanwhile, Stephen Colbert pretty much said Trump is an "unstable leader", when discussing

the matter.

And Seth Meyers compared Trump to Elmer Fudd.

Other celebrities including John Legend, 39, have also weighed in on Trump's comment.

"The president is a racist.

He has been for his entire public life.

If you vote(d) for him, you do so because of that or despite that.

We need a multi-racial anti-racist coalition to defeat him and try to heal our nation,"

John said angrily on Twitter.

Chelsea Clinton, 37, also responded to Trump's comment with, "Mr. President, immigrants

from El Salvador, Haiti and the 53 countries in Africa likely helped build your buildings.

They've certainly helped our country.

cc @POTUS."

Although President Trump's comment is not surprising, it has offended a lot of people.

The only silver lining in this situation is that the American people are not letting him

off the hook!

We're proud of everyone who is using their voice to address his awful comment!

Trump to Send Americans to the Moon - Duration: 2:37.

Trump

to Send Americans to the Moon

On Monday, December 11, President Trump held a ceremony where he signed a new directive

for America�s space program.

The goal?

Putting American astronauts back on the moon to �establish a foundation for an eventual

mission to Mars.�

Now where have we heard something like this before?

Oh yes, former Speaker of the House and Republican Presidential Candidate, Newt Gingrich, mentioned

colonizing the moon on the campaign trail, claiming in 2012 that if he were elected,

by the end of his second term, �we will have the first permanent base on the moon

and it will be American.�

Well it seems that the idea resonated with the Trump administration as well.

And while there was no talk of fitting a giant laser on the moon and pointing it at North

Korea, President Trump didn�t rule out weaponizing the moon.

�Space has so much to do with so many other applications,� he said.

�Including a military application.�

Vice President Mike Pence is the chairman of the recently-revived National Space Council,

which were the ones who unanimously approved the directive behind closed doors in October.

At Monday�s press conference, Pence made it clear that this new policy will �enhance

our national security and our capacity to provide for the common defense of the people

of the United States of America.�

So what does this mean for the common American?

Will the 51st state be on the moon?

Will we be able to take our vacations into orbit on the back of an American rocket and

stay at a Trump Moon Hotel?

Will we fend off nuclear missiles with a Dr. Evil-type moon laser after all?

�Imagine the possibility waiting in those big, beautiful stars if we dare to dream big,�

the President said.

�And that�s what our country is doing again: We�re dreaming big.�
