The Guardian Review of Press Conference between Trump and May - Trump Era

Guardian - Live Reporting: Reports in its 6.51pm post the following, " So, Donald Trump can act presidential. After a week that has seen multiple instances of Trump outraging Washington norms, he managed to get through a press conference lasting about 20-odd minutes sounding measured and reasonably diplomatic. He stressed that he was willing to defer to his defence secretary, James Mattis, on the subject of torture (Mattis doesn’t think it works, even though Trump does), he insisted that he wanted good relations with Mexico and he played down the prospect of an early lifting of Russian sanctions. "

Lets Get Real:

For the Guardian this is praise for President Trump, let's be honest the elite media hate Trump, they are the official opposition for Trump, the BBC question was what you would expect from the BBC/Guardian type, a long question with negatives towards Trump and managed to bring up abortion in the US, in what way was that a concern for the UK watcher. Overall the President showed he was moderate and could be diplomatic, another good day for Trump.   On the British side the President was a firm supporter of Brexit, and thus we should get a good deal out of the Oval Office. 

Trump and NATO - Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " US President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Theresa May have reaffirmed their commitment to the Nato alliance after White House talks. "

Lets Get Real:

The Baltic States and Eastern European States will be happy that President Trump reaffirmed support for NATO, the problem is that President Trump has been known to change his mind, and should Russian under Putin place pressure on the Baltic States and Eastern Europe will Trump as the leader of the Western World come to their defence.   As the President stated in his first speech, it's America First, he does not want to do nation building or enter Wars like Iraq.   The Russians will be watching and waiting to put Trump to the test, or it will be Daesh, either attacks in Middle East or Europe/America, every Administration is tested, lets see how Trump reacts. 

President Trump holds a Press Conference with PM May of the UK - Trump Era

Lets Get Real:

This was a good press conference for PM May and President Trump, the President was supportive of Brexit and of the Special Relationship between the US and the UK.  There seems a good personal relationship between the two leaders.  Let us see how it develops. 

Trump and Dealing with Terrorists - Part 2 - Trump Era

The Hill: Reports " A draft executive order that would smooth the path for the CIA to reopen controversial “black site” detention facilities is not a White House document, press secretary Sean Spicer said Wednesday. "

Lets Get Real:

Thus another press that might not have any foundations in reality, it does happen in Washington D.C.   On the issue itself this blog has made it clear that it supports the use of torture in selected and needed cases.  It also supports the opening of black sites to help the US keep and question terrorists.   Also black sites are outside the US, thus should not be covered by US Federal Law, also when the US has finished with its questions for terrorists it can keep them there for the duration.  Terrorists do not have any rights, there only right is for a jail cell and the key to be throw away.   In this War on Terror, warm liberal hearts could get you killed.

Trump and Selected Restrictions on Muslim Countries - Trump Era

Telegraph - Live Reporting: Reports in its 6.29pm post the following, " Donald Trump is expected to announce restrictions today on visas for people arriving from seven countries - Syria, Iran, Iraq, Somalia, Yemen, Libya and Sudan...He says that it is about keeping America safe. "

Lets Get Real:

This restrictions on some muslim nations is racist, there is no other words for it, how are law abiding people of these countries going to view such actions, they will think they are being targeted, the Countries with Governments will feel that they are being targeted even if they seen as friendly to the West.   Also interesting that Saudi Arabia is not on the list, as most of the 9/11 attackers came from SA.  It could be that SA is to powerful to annoy and is a ally of the US.  The new Trump Administration wants to build up its relationships with allies that felt let down by President Obama.   This is about keeping Iran on its toes, and showing there is a new President in the Oval Office. 

Trump and Dealing with Terrorists - War on Terror

Guardian: Reports " Trump's executive order heralds 'dangerous' return to torture, official warns..Adviser to team that interrogates terror suspects says politicians like Trump ‘have no idea how little they know’ about the perils of reinstating torture "

Lets Get Real:

When it comes to terrorists this blog is a hawk, torture does work, the terrorists gave up their rights when they become terrorists, every case is different, the threat of torture can be enough, but if that does not work then more heavy methods should have to be used.  This blog changed its mind after the events of 9/11, innocent people should not be allowed to die because an individual does not think it is moral to use heavy methods.   The waterboarding for terrorists should be used, black sites outside the US should be used to hold terrorists, for however long it takes, after they given up the information they have the terrorists should be jailed and the key thrown away.   THE above will look harsh, and is harsh, Western security comes first, morals can wait for when there is NO WAR ON TERROR. 

Trump and the Mexican Wall - Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " President Donald Trump has said Mexico will "absolutely, 100%" reimburse the US for the wall he plans to build on the southern border. "

Lets Get Real:

POTUS is keeping to his campaign promise to build a Wall on the Mexican and US border.    The American voter see the Southern border as open to illegals coming in and the negative effects on civic society.   President Trump is doing what the people want, this is sending the liberal elite in the US up the wall, they believe in open borders, and see any Wall as racist and therefore Trump.    The US has a need to secure it border, otherwise it is seen that crime levels go up and those that are caught in the US and found to be illegals are let out again under the Obama Administration.  It does not matter if the above is true, it is what got Trump elected. California and New York is not the rest of the US.   IT SHOULD NOTED THIS BLOG BELIEVES IN AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS AS DID THE GIPPER.   As with most things the Gipper was ahead of his time.
