Are you trying to make Trump sound like Maduro or Raul Castro? A cabinet meeting doesn't mean much. Trump is an amateur politician--he won because Hillary was so intensely disliked.

I found it extremely disturbing and I'm not going to apologise for that. I sincerely hope though that those of you who are prepared to be more laid back about it are going to be proved right.
You can quibble over the word "always", if you want. It just weakens your argument, such as it is.
So , he fires people he hires to do a job when they fail to perform to his expectations?
Oh horrors!!!
And you fault him for occasionally failing while taking risks to create thousands of jobs?
Please! Your whining about the successes and failures of the man smack of jealousy and envy.
You need counseling to help you get past the trauma of his gettinjg elected.
I can hardly name Trump's cabinet--they are mostly personal friends of Trump and successful businessmen. There are no strict rules about cabinets. Some Presidents have ignored their cabinets. Needless to say, I have never been in on a business board meeting, but I have a notion that Trump runs his cabinet like a Trump Tower board meeting. The US has extreme financial problems and we are facing military enemies on all sides.
We should all aspire to be as civil and restrained as the Rev here.
It seems you don't like the way he talks, and that makes him a dictator. In fact he has done exactly as Obama did, and used Executive Orders, mostly to reverse Obama's own executive orders.
We will be.
No group of cabinet members could possibly be more sycophantic than those of the last president. His temper was legendary and his blow ups toward his cabinet are well known. All except Gates were afraid of him. We survived it.
Trump's cabinet has been busy repairing some of the excesses they carried out at his behest without protest.
Ridiculous.

You and your American ISIS thread came in and won the pageant out of nowhere though.
Congrats.
Uh, the KKK is firmly rooted in the Democrat party. Were you unaware of that?
Except you?
Nice try. I don't use the site as a Breitbart media proxy.
Please show me the quote where I said they weren't? Also, show me any relevant indication where the Democratic Party is making a move to go back to the KKK roots. I'll wait patiently for both.
And good friends and advisers will tell your when you are wrong. An adviser is not a good adviser who simply rubber stamps what you say and propose. This is especially true of the president's chief of staff. He is the man/woman who needs to tell the president what he does not want to hear and when to back off. Trump does not allow that. He fires people like that.
A good adviser is not cheerleader. A cheerleader is not a good adviser.
Good friends and advisers do not let you continually make a fool of yourself!
Here is a reference to an excellent book on the subject:

You have completely ignored my argument, especially the biblical portion of it, and chosen just to nitpick. I wonder why.
Like tell him he is making a mistake. There's a very long history of Trump in his business life of firing competent people when they don't say what he wants them to say and replacing them with unqualified sycophants. If you really want to know about it, the information is out there. Of course, I doubt you want to know, so I won't waste my time.
No, I fault him for making poor business choices that destroy jobs and rob people of their financial stability. His most fortunate victims, like those conned by Trump University, have been able to get some of their money back. But most don't.
I am not jealous of the man. I'd be ashamed to be him.
I was not traumatized by President Trump getting elected, nor do I obsess about it like the infantile President. I am concerned about now and the future. Responsible adults are going to have to clean up the mess.
Then why the love-in?
Unlike the drama queens who splurge threads and posts all over this board gerbilling that all Muslims are eeeeevil.Ridiculous.

Sure you are. It's written all over every post. You're envious of his success, so you feel compelled to criticize his every move. And you always come back to his business career, but only his failures , because his successes irritate you.
Counseling is definitely in order.
Thanks for demonstrating my point.
