1. GIVE ME A BREAK
DONALD THUMP ,   WASHINGTON EGO   (08.17.17)
Get off my case.
2. The voters in US heartland will not forget Dems behaviour to
Alan ,   SA   (08.17.17)
President Trump....Remember the Prez election is decided by the states ,not by the massive massive populations of the sea coast states like Khalifornia or New York.The former are the base support for President Trump.They are not all KKK or White Knights etc. They are not the guys who establish a recipe site on internet and sell it for a trillion $$$ or take off their clothes in a movie and get a billion $$$.They are workers on land and in factories.They suffered in 2007 onwards.
They are moving in the direction of a sort of dismembering of USA as we know it. Bibi and Israel , dont get dragged into this one
3. PLEASE BEAR IN MIND
CAPTAIN SENSIBLE ,   SAFED HONESTY   (08.17.17)
President Trump has hardly any political experience ,he is new in the job. It would be appropriate to cut the man some slack . He has in fact repeatedly condemned the recent violence in Charlottesville .Being fresh in his role ,he is of course bound to make mistakes ,and putting him under intense scrutiny all the time is unhelpful and counterproductive .In other words ,leave the man in peace to do the job he was elected to do .Quit bugging him .And I would say the same about any other President
4. And why prey, should our PM '"respond" to everything?Because
(08.17.17)
Druuucker/Abramovich say so?
5. extremism
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (08.17.17)
extremism is dangerous whether it be on the Left or on the Right, whether it be in USA or Israel.

Extremists are not open to hearing other people, are not honest thinkers and are prone to violence.

Even worse are today's media that take a side against (or for) a person or group and we have seen too much of it here in Israel.
6. netanyahu will not criticie trump
mel   (08.17.17)
bibi, always calculating, will not confront trump on his charlesville comments, but why expect him to do the right thing? He apolgoized to erdogan, a lying crook and buffoon, he sat on his thumbs in the gaza war, he was passive in hitting iran. bibi is uncertain and lacks guts period. don't expect him to do anything that requires courage.
7. Trump didn't say the were morally equivilant.
Brad   (08.17.17)
But if he did, he would've been right. Besides, Nazis are socialists(lefty), and the KKK exists courtesy of the democrat party(lefty).
8. Bibi: Support Trump & Republicans. They are our friends!
Chaim ,   Israel   (08.17.17)
Actions mean everything. Words mean nothing. Trump, and the Republicans, prove through actions that they are mostly true friends of Israel and Jews. Most Democrats, on the other hand, are foes. You won't find passionate Israel supporters, such as Mike Huckabee, among Democrats.

While Obama and Hillary Clinton constantly undermined Israel at the U.N., and elsewhere, Trump vehemently supports Israel. Trump was NEVER called a racist till he challenged Democrat power. Don't be fooled by the Democrat lie machine, Bibi. Support Trump and the Republicans. They are our true friends. Lets not hurt our friends and lose them, while kissing the boots of our Democrat foes.
9. OBSERVATIONS
STIGMUND FREUD ,   SAFED PSYCHOLOGY   (08.17.17)
President Trump tends to react quickly to any criticism ,he reacts in a sharp gung-ho almost instinctive and automatic manner .He would be better served by lowering his profile and not responding to every question and automatically firing back .He can always say ' NO COMMENT ." This would preserve his sanity and frustrate those who wish to do him harm politically.
10. Qui tacet consentire videtur!*
(08.17.17)
Latin = He who is silent is taken to agree.
For example, the Prime Minister who considers himself the leader of world Jewry is silent when American Jewry is under attack. The Prime Minister's silence means that he agrees with that attack.

The truth, the painful truth is (go look at the evidence...the last bit has to do with who can pray at the Western Wall and who may not pray at the Western Wall) that the Prime Minister doesNOT at all care for the vast majority of America's Jews.
11. Yair 100% right
(08.17.17)
The left is mobilizing the bulk of the European continent and much of American society against Israel. The people driving the bus are the media, many politicians and the Catholic church. The actions of the church are frequently behind the scenes, but a look at the frequency of visits with Pal leaders, the embassy for them and actions in Israel tell the true story.
12. THE PROBLEM
CAPTAIN SENSIBLE ,   SAFED HONESTY   (08.17.17)
The trouble is ,Trump is new to the world of politics. He understands the world of business very well of course but he is new to politics ,and his inexperience is already getting him in to trouble ,he is making some big and clumsy mistakes which a more experienced leader would have avoided making. He needs to be more humble and too accept advice from those who know the political arena more than he does so that he can better navigate the political minefield.
13. MESSAGE TO TRUMP
CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ,   SAFED OBVIOUS   (08.17.17)
When you are in a hole ,and you ARE in a hole ,then STOP DIGGING and stop tweeting .
14. ALL I CAN SAY IS TO REMIND THE MEDIA OF THE CLOWN THAT THEY
IRANIAN JEW ,   LALA LAND   (08.18.17)
have produced entirley on their own. They enjoyed the money of the ratings durign the election. Unfortunately popurlism is a sick fact in the Maerican politics. No one votes with theri bains, but with their TV'S.

15. ONE STEP CLOSER TO IMPEACMENT DONNE BOY! IT WAS FUN WATCHING
IRANIAN JEW ,   LALA LAND   (08.18.17)
you take a dump on the media & congress. Now, you need to take a long rest, and just let a qualified person do this job. You have no TV personnality and a large mouth. You can't last long in this country w/o those.
16. How can anyone support a NAZI sympithizer. T is racist.
DOV ,   USA   (08.17.17)
17. No evidence of Balagan = Propaganda
Zippy ,   Levittown, N   (08.17.17)
18. When was the last time
BBB   (08.18.17)

19. MR ORANGE CONDEMNS WHITE SUPREMACISTS
MR CYNIC ,   SAFED COLOURBLIND   (08.17.17)
20. THE TROUBLE IS
STIGMUND FREUD ,   SAFED PSYCHOLOGY   (08.18.17)
Donald Trump is so rich ,famous and powerful that nobody is prepared to stand up to him and inform him of the error of his ways and risk incurring his wrath.
