> [@SteveG1](#): > > And his shit stain son, who is a Cheeto-In-Training, says all the criticism might make him “suicidal”. Yes that’s right, Trump’s second oldest son Eric has claimed that negative media coverage of his father is so ferocious that it would lead another person to depression and then suicide. Suck it up, snowflake. If this is true, I say intensify the criticism. ---

Why can’t we have a media that’s _respectful_ of the Leader, like the media in Russia? _They_ never show embarrassing video of Vlad or comment on anything Vlad says or does! Or at least they don’t do it for long. ---

There are too many ways to count how much of an idiot we have as President. Let’s undo everything Obama did, right? Too much regulation, right? No reason to force builders and developers to be sensible and look beyond the buck, right? :smack: Oh, wait… > [@](#): > > A couple of weeks ago President Trump scrapped Obama-era rules, intended to reduce the risks posed by flooding, that established new construction standards for roads, housing and other infrastructure projects that receive federal dollars. > > Trump derided these restrictions, which were written in response to growing concerns over the impact of climate change, and other federal rules as useless red tape holding back the economy. > > “This overregulated permitting process is a massive, self-inflicted wound on our country — it’s disgraceful — denying our people much-needed investments in their community,” he said in the lobby of Trump Tower in New York during an event to tout his infrastructure policies. > > But now, in the wake of the massive flooding and destruction caused by Hurricane Harvey along the Gulf Coast, the Trump administration is considering whether to issue similar requirements to build higher in flood-prone areas as the government prepares to spend billions of dollars in response to the storm. > > This potential policy shift underscores the extent to which the reality of this week’s storm has collided with Trump officials’ push to upend President Barack Obama’s policies and represents a striking acknowledgment by an administration skeptical of climate change that the government must factor changing weather into some of its major infrastructure policies… [Cite](https://a.msn.com/r/2/AAr6mu7?m=en-us) ---

The perfect opportunity pissed away. Shut down plans for the Wall with a noble and endearing gesture. Talked himself into the shit hole, and the perfect chance to skate out of it looking like a hero, and he fucks it up. Amazing.
