CBS News — On Thursday President spoke in both Iowa and Illinois to praise his economic polices. CBS news reports he saved “his most energetic remarks for a recently reopened U.S. Steel facility in Granite City, Illinois.”
Some quoted highlights from Granite City.
“If you don’t have steel, you don’t have a country.”
“I look at the faces of you people. I could be one of you.”
Before he spoke in Illinois, President Trump held a roundtable discussion with the agriculture industry in Dubuque, Iowa.
During the roundtable discussion he praised “leaders at the table, talking about ethanol, and blasting Sen. John McCain’s health care vote last year, without naming him. Mr. Trump said “one man” decided “late in the evening” to break with the party. “Isn’t that wonderful?” Mr. Trump said.”

During his speech in Illinois the President is reported as saying, “We lost $817 billion a year, over the last number of years in trade. In other words, if we didn’t trade, we’d save a hell of a lot of money.” (the remark comes in the posted video above at around the 14:00 minute mark)
…called “The Case Against Impeaching Trump,” which I would encourage all people with Trump Derangement Syndrome to read!

The CEO went further in a radio interview adding that players aren’t even allowed to be in the locker room during the anthem, which violates the NFL leagues policy.
Arrived back in Washington last night from a very emotional reopening of a major U.S. Steel plant in Granite City, Illinois, only to be greeted with the ridiculous news that the highly conflicted Robert Mueller and his gang of 13 Angry Democrats obviously cannot find Collusion…

….,the only Collusion with Russia was with the Democrats, so now they are looking at my Tweets (along with 53 million other people) – the rigged Witch Hunt continues! How stupid and unfair to our Country….And so the Fake News doesn’t waste my time with dumb questions, NO,….

…..I did NOT know of the meeting with my son, Don jr. Sounds to me like someone is trying to make up stories in order to get himself out of an unrelated jam (Taxi cabs maybe?). He even retained Bill and Crooked Hillary’s lawyer. Gee, I wonder if they helped him make the choice!
