A policy issue?
How about US to pull out of Paris climate treaty?

Trump is a f*#king moron.

George Will, the cerebral conservative commentator said this:

The American people decided to treat the Presidency as an entry level political job, and this is what they get.

And that came from an arch conservative.

Hey, at least he's draining the swamp.

The rate at which the Trump White House has handed out waivers is far faster than that of the Obama administration, which issued 17 exemptions for White House appointees over eight years.

The waiver information — which was requested of all federal agencies by the Office of Government Ethics in April — provides a window into how far the Trump administration is willing to bend on its “drain the swamp” pledge. As a candidate, Trump vowed to take a hard line on lobbyists, which he promised would not shape his administration.

So, should the Fed start divesting its bond holdings now? Sub-point: dare they do so AND raise interest rates? Remember, it's the economy, stoopid.

Y'all do want to talk about issues, right?

Was an arch conservative, but in today's fringe-right gop he's a conservative democrat.

I'm genuinely glad you guys are content in your echo-chamber correctness, having created a safe space in which to vent. It'll hopefully keep you from going postal or blowing a gasket as things increasingly don't go your way.

So, if you remain content enough to just vent into this safe space, I for one will happily leave you to it. Carry on.

Is airline safety an issue?

I don't think so.

He is just another "never Trump" GOP dude who marginalized himself... and now,like most of the posters on this topic, can't begin to fathom that Mr. Trump won the election and the WHITE HOUSE is not calling George and asking for his opinion on various subjects.

Its hard for folks to slap a label on our President today... but keep trying--its been most entertaining.

Lemme get this straight: the economy isn't an issue and airline safety isn't an issue but whining about ethics is? Oh, right, that ties into Sloan and the Nose.

Nobody said those weren't issues.

And yes, when we have in place what might be the most openly keptorcratic presidency in our history, that's a huge issue, except for trunpkins, who only get worked up about Hilary's emails.

So I guess for the GOP bunch, issues of ethics and corruption are not issues.

I remember when they screamed about accountability, efficiency, and losses through theft. But that was when they pretended to care about morality.
