So a vocal, sometimes aggressive or violent, minority of our country has gotten so out of control that the rest of the nation is unwilling to stand up.
the Dems in congress ain't giving him an inch and it seems that every other week there is an anti-trump demonstration so the opposition is being heard, remember it's now a 3-ring circus, and Trump's base is holding the GOP's feet to the fire, but we'll see come the primaries, we are caught in the limbo of the Trump-GOP cold war
yep, he's just talking to his base right now, if they don't find his fingerprints on the murder weapon then that's all we are going to hear from him until next spring's primaries

My god. @POTUS has no idea that the goal of terrorists is to instill a level of fear in the public disproportionate to the actual threat. https://t.co/IgDA4iaEvP
Playing into the terrorists hands may actually serve Trump well.

Yes! Friendly city, great neighborhoods. This NYT article points up how much Pittsburgh has changed from its steel days. Oh, and Hillary Clinton got 75% of Pittsburgh's voters in the presidential election.
“The economy looks more like Boston than it does Gary, Ind.,” said George Fechter, who was chief executive of the McGowan Center for Artificial Organ Development at the University of Pittsburgh. He called the president’s comments “absolutely outrageous,” adding “he doesn’t represent the people of Pittsburgh.”
In remaking itself, Pittsburgh has benefited from resources that a struggling city like Detroit, for example, never had: flagship universities like Carnegie Mellon and the University of Pittsburgh, which produce their own tech entrepreneurs, medical campuses and cultural events.
Pittsburgh’s transformation from a steel town to a center of “eds and meds” has been visible even on the city’s streets.
“It’s almost like I watched soot come off the buildings — the buildings turned from black to beige while I lived there,” said Richard Florida, an urban economist who has championed the emerging knowledge economy in cities like Pittsburgh. He taught at Carnegie Mellon and lived in the city from the late 1980s through the early 2000s. “It’s not the typical down-in-the-dumps Rust Belt town. It’s still in the midst of a transformation, but it looks like it has turned a corner.”
