Tiberius Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 You guys need to understand Trump. He is a negotiator by trade. He is going to ask for more than what he is willing to accept. Understand and take his words with a grain of salt when he is addressing specific deals. Just step back and judge by the results rather than his initial rhetoric. But what about the fact he will lie about the final results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Because the temper tantrum must continue. What they're really looking for are National Enquirer headlines along the lines of the old classic: "I cut out her heart and stomped on it!"
