When will our government GOVERN??

All they do is look for ways to support the fascist whims of the toddler-president. He gets one idea in his head after another about little pet projects that he thinks will build his power base or his reputation, and that's what our government talks about.

How about helping the citizens of the country to improve their lives and their living conditions? Do lawmakers MAKE LAWS anymore? How about taking action to improve infrastructure or finally bring prices down? How about protecting the poor and disadvantaged in our society?

They don't care about the American people. They just want to please their cult leader and try to make the country look like them.

Instead of Battling Trump, San Francisco’s Mayor Is Sweating the Small Stuff

Daniel Lurie has focused more on mundane matters than addressing national tensions, and his approval ratings have been strong. It remains to be seen how long he can avoid the political fray.
