I don't know if everybody realizes the magnitude of how unprecedented Donald Trump is. I am 53 years old I have never seen the transparency and openness and willingness to listen to regular American people everyday like he does in the White House. This was amazing to watch, unscripted and informative. You can't help but be encouraged when the president listens to the concerns of the American people. Simply amazing.
Are you actually seeing what he's doing in office? Doesn't it concern you one bit that he's appointing unqualified billionaires to make big decisions for the entire country? It doesn't concern you that he's very quick to dismiss science or the fact that we need to preserve our environment for our grand kids? I think there's a big difference between acting like you're honest and open, and actually being honest and open.
Billionares are the most accomplished men in the world. And you call them unqualified? Trump, a businessman is well more than qualified to lead a country despite all the mainstream nonsense of "NO EXPERIENCE!!". Theyre trying so hard to hold him back and make him fail so later on they can say " WE TOLD U SO." (republicans and dems alike) He can accomplish literally everything he said he would if they gave him a fair shot, and a fair legitimate chance. You know like willing to work with him, like they're supposed too?
Have you seen Trump's cabinet? Do you believe those people will work for the betterment of the American people? Do you think DeVos, for example, will work to benefit kids using public education? Does it bother you that she essentially paid her way onto his cabinet? Do you think that Steve Bannon has the public's best interests at heart? Do you think Steven Mnuchin, a former partner of Goldman Sachs (you know, the finance company with more unethical dealing than a local gang member), should be anywhere near the position of US Secretary of the Treasury??? I can go on about the VP not even believing that evolution is true, but I think you catch my drift. Are these the people you believe will "make America great again"? If so, for who?
people hate him as they do not listen to him - they form their opinions from the main stream media - this is foolish - judge a person by what they say not what others say about them but this is the answer to your question... Most Trump haters do not listen to him they hate him as the media told them to.. And there are good reasons the media hates Trump the main one being this: Trump is anti-war - the media is controlled by BIG money which means Banks and Defence companies - guess who wants war? Yup Banks and Defence companies as they make HUGE profits. Banks own BIG OIL. Guess who also makes big profits from war? Yup BIG OIL. So, Banking, Defence companies and Oil all profit from war - these companies own and control the media. Trump is anti-war - he prefers real trade and peace... THIS is why people hate Trump. The media tells them too for reasons most people do not understand...
Trump supporters will be the fool trust me. IF you believe him you are the fool. It has nothing to do with main stream media. Most of us can form our own opinion of what exactly comes out of his mouth.
leslie silk ... If it is a medical fact that our brain receptors depend on CBD for healthy function,...what does that say about your statement you just made? Think about it. :-/ no one is compelled to support themselves, nor to make proper nutrition for themselves. If we allow govt funds to intervene un-necessarily towards regulating what we do with our bodies. What is the real crime, here? The victim ..or is it the civil servant....sadly, perhaps, it rests solely on the ignorant.
Just check out this moron, Buford Young...his illiteracy is tragic...must be either an illegal alien or just a dumbass middle school dropout...Hillary must have absolutely LOVED this assclown...smh
That's great that he doesn't, but it's because he's found women to abuse and trophy wives to flaunt instead. I'd rather have a president who smokes than one who cheats on his several wives. Better yet, I'd rather have a president who actually believes in facts - like climate change - not lie about whatever he feels he needs to disagree about.
Proud to be an American! Go President Trump! From Boston, keep up the GREAT work! All these Sheriffs... listen. Just listen. They speak volumes! Thank God for President Trump!
By far the greatest president in a long time. Down to earth and not a politicians president but a people's president. Hardworking and respectable. Shame he can only serve two terms.
+Warrior for God awakening Apparently Truth got lost in your head, too, 'cause what you just witnessed was the president 'encouraging' law enforcement to take people's assets without a conviction. So let's see how you would like that Truth applied to you ... would you like law enforcement to take all your assets away, all your money, your house, your car, your jewelry, anything of value, with no proof that you got any of it illegally, no conviction, and use it all for their own benefit? Go ask any of the thousands of innocent people across the country who's life have been destroyed, their dreams taken away, by civil asset forfeiture about the Truth of what it's done to them. Do you have any idea of the corruption, theft, and destruction civil asset forfeiture has enabled? Stop making a demigod of Trump, it breaks God's law to do so.
ShotInOneTake i agree...he's just another puppet for the thieves at the top...Yes, he iis doing things that LOOK good but somewhere in between lines, the American people will lose more "rights, privileges and freedoms.
Steve M I think the head of law enforcement can be pro drug war because it enriches their pockets. The majority of arrests are for non-violent drug crime. Here in VA I read that the Law enforcement lobbyists lobbied against Marijuana decriminalization. The fastest way to end gang violence, the fastest way to keep to defund drug cartels, and the fastest way to begin educating people and allowing personal freedom is to end the war on drugs. Also, in other criticism, it's pretty funny how Trump keeps talking about himself. Also, wtf is Trump talking about when he says the murder rate is at an all time high? Not according to the FBI. ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2015/crime-in-the-u.s.-2015/tables/table-1
You know Mark, you sound really stupid, wake up and smell the coffee and think about what you are going to do with the only life you have been given. You are competing in a global economy and there are people all over the world studying to take your potential job from you. Remember not all foreigners are terrorists and when the proper vetting goes in to place you will have to compete against them for a job. Worry about whether you will be able to compete fro work to support yourself and someday if you are lucky a family. All this other crap is nonsense.
WHAT A TRULY INSPIRING MEETING!!! In 55 years, I have NEVER felt so PROUD, HOPEFUL, and HONORED to be an American living in these times. It's crystal clear that these great people MEAN BUSINESS. AND TO THINK THIS IS THE FIRST TIME AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT HAS HELD A MEETING WITH THE SHERIFFS OF OUR NATION, TO DISCUSS "WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE" TO ENFORCE THE RULE OF LAW. We the People really need to congratulate the liberals, because they "did such a fantastic job" of WAKING AMERICA UP TO THEIR DESPICABLE TYRANNY. This also goes for many of the corrupt republicans. Through your lies, corruption & repeated acts of total usurpation, you have all truly sealed your own fate. And may all freedom loving Americans NEVER let such a bad government form & operate again, as we were forced into this great awakening to get back on the right road TO THE GLORY OF GOD.
Just remember, other world leaders are watching this man closely and cannot help but start respecting him. What a major difference to what we had before.
tommobeast2 i hope those of you who look favorably on pres trump will turn out in droves when he visits the UK later this year- make your numbers so high the media won't have any choice but to cover it on the news 🇬🇧🇺🇸
THE MORE I HEAR PRESIDENT TRUMP THE BETTER I LIKE HIM. I WOULD NOT WATCH OBAMA ALL THE YEARS THAT HE WAS IN OFFICE. HE MADE ME SICK THEN AND HE MAKES ME SICK NOW
Rebecca Russell, me too, whenever his lieing face (obama) came on tv, i cringed... changed the channel, immediately. i love, love trump! he's sent to us from GOD😇😇😇😇
I agree with all your points. Obama made me nauseous whenever I saw or heard him talk. With Trump, I actually like listening to him. He is getting things done and not just making speeches.
based rowlet the one that most of us remember is " if you like your doctor you WILL keep your doctor". No one kept their doctors and most lost health care all together. Yes. 12 million did get coverage ....the rest .....? Good luck!
Question is ... what is he 'leading'? From the looks of this meeting, he's leading a bunch of self-serving, manipulating liars ... every sheriff in that room knows exactly why a legislator has introduced a bill requiring a conviction before civil asset forfeiture ... because innocent people across the country have lost everything because law enforcement 'thinks' they got it through illegal means, with NO PROOF, NO CONVICTION of any wrongdoing. For them to sit there and act as if the don't know why legislation curtailing government theft is required is totally dishonest, self-serving and manipulative, and they need to be removed from office. If you think Trump 'encouraging' it is 'true leadership', let's just send over some law enforcement thugs to your house to seize anything and everything of value that you may have without any proof that you've done anything illegal, THEN, you can tell all about 'what true leadership looks like.".
Sharayah Gant ... if 'a true leader listens', then why is the White House Comment Line down? Notice that Trump said that he didn't get one call about his executive orders for the pipelines. Well of course he didn't, the comment lines are down.
80% of criminal activity in Chicago is drug related. Did you not listen to anything they said? With the advanced technology we have today, law enforcement are able to be more accurate with their information they obtain with criminals related to drug trafficking, and forfeiting any assets related to the crime. This helps quickly put a stop to any crime related plan that is set in place, and most happening from places like Mexico. PRESIDENT TRUMP!!!
Mick Funny Yes. Our government (deep state anyway) has been demonizing Russia for decades, to support their agenda. Gotta ask yourself: if Russia is not the demon the globalists are making them out to be then we don't need NATO, UN... Understand? Russia is a western judeo christian country struggling out of the corpse of communism. The actual bad guy is China...
Like him or hate him, either way you have to admit Trump hustles. He's always busy working on something or meeting people. The trend has carried over from his campaign where he was having multiple rallies a day, some in different states. It's easy to see how he became a billionaire with this level of focus and drive. This amount of effort from a politician is sadly very rare.
Trump is so uninformed. Does he even read anything? The issue with asset forfeiture is that law enforcement sizes assets even when the subject is not found guilty. This is a lawless forfeiture of assets by incentivised law enforcement. If the subject is found guilty then they should forfeit assets, but if they are found not guilty then LE should not be allowed to profit from seizing assets from someone who is not guilty of a crime. The issue in the past is that LE just keeps the assets, guilty or not. Policing for profit is morally wrong and should be abolished.
Rahul Kemp Dumbo was Disney's unique flying elephant (which happens to be a very intelligent animal) who dealt a destructive blow to his enemies and then was hailed as a hero.
Switzerland Life it's not all of us it's really the minority who r getting covered by the media so it looks like everyone hates him but that's not true We Love Him
Switzerland Life Don't let the mainstream media fool you foreigners. Most of America is behind Trump---the globalist media tries to undermine him and make it appear as if no one supports him. YUGE LIE.
Seth Myers and Stephen Colbert will edit a 3 second clip out of all of this, call him an orange pumpkin, and the crowd will lose their minds and act like they're informed.
Hardwood Hoop So many morons that are uninformed, to much work for the truth. Rather have daily show or Saturday night live make jokes about a good man and people think they know what he's about, very annoying.
Hardwood Hoop I'm so impressed with president Trump. like I always tell people, don't ever believe what the media says. they did the same thing to Michael Jackson when he was alive. I'm from Nigeria and I wish we have a president like him that truly cares about his people a lot, only if Americans would give him a chance, they won't ever regret having him as their president because he cares about them and he fears nobody.. believe me, there are evil powers that rule every country and the world at large and they won't anyone that would confront them which is what president Trump is doing, they can't do him anything because he's ordained by God Almighty
+Hardwood Hoop Look who's acting 'like they're informed'... obviously, you don't know what you just saw. When the president asked them why would anyone want legislation that required a conviction before taking people's assets, they all just sat there (like a bunch of self-serving manipulating liars) and said nothing ... as if they didn't know that 'civil asset forfeiture', where law enforcement can take all your assets on a whim, without proof or conviction, destroys innocent people's lives, takes their dreams away. People need to look into the many reasons for the Revolutionary War ... part of it was because British soldiers would just take whatever they wanted from people. What's really amazing about these arrogant idiots is that they just gave their names, knowing it was all being recorded. So now The People can kick their behinds out of office for being so self-serving, arrogant, and stupid. And of course, Trump, in his 'good ol' boy, locker room' fashion, went right along with it all, 'encouraging' government agents to destroy innocent people's lives with no compensation. Shame on you for thinking it's all just so wonderful.
Strength as in denying long term US green card holders? Sincerity as in 300/mill a year on security for Melania who doesn't want her son to change schools? Yea greetings as well.
What a concept to see a president actually do the job we expect him to do. I hope this is all real. You never know these days, but you can't fake results.
tuturron07. You are really confused tutu open your ears. President Donald J Trump said we're not playing games if you live to see your next birthday you're going to see this man taking care of business its best for you to keep your mouth closed and open your ears and eyes wide open
He is not like other careful and scripted presidents. Heavy-handed that he is, he is really trying to do something. His messages are strong and he will succeed at least partially. I respect him bigly.
goldpilgrim His speech was not at all scripted. yes he looks down but not at a script. he is looking at issues he wants to resolve and things likw that
Can you guys feel the hopeful and positive vibe going on with these meetings Trump is having? Say what you want, but all the right people are behind him.
I Agree 100% with you President TRUMP Empower and Give the Sheriffs what they need to stop the Drugs and Opiates from coming into America, Bravo President TRUMP!
Its the first time I have ever heard these sheriffs speak, and I think they are such good people, well done trump, works like this will make America and the world great again. blessings to those good people.
guest I don't believe in certain fairy tales, but now that trump is here, I'm amazing myself! hope! courage! Obama never gave me these traits after listening to him!!! there's no comparison! trump's one of the best!
That meeting was Incredible we have a great President!! please pray for and our nation we need it. I am so proud of him he is so open and kind and understanding of our problems and needs. God bless him and America 💟💖👍
like him or not... this guy is a HARD WORKER, go getter, actions-speak-louder-than-words, kinda guy. Not too sure about his policies, but very respectful of his hard work.
Thank you ALL you Sheriffs for honoring President Trump!!! Bless you all !!! He is a great President!!!!!!!!!!!!!and of course Vice President Mike Pence too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+eyestoenvy Because Trump just "encouraged" civil asset forfeiture aka government raping The People, and just (jokingly) threatened to "destroy" the career of the legislator who introduced a bill that would require a conviction before law enforcement agents can take all your assets. You do realize that they aren't required to have any proof of wrongdoing on your part. All they have to do is say they think you got your assets through illegal means and they can take it all ... your house, your car, your jewelry, your bank account, anything of value ... wipe you out. Obviously you don't think much of yourself if you think that's going to "MAGA". Greatness is going to require much more than self-serving government thieves let loose.
I suspect you need some counseling for your issues . Do you know NOTHING b about the Heroin Epidemic in our country due to our pours borders? Do you support Sex Trafficking as well ? You obviously care NOTHING about the parents who are losing their youth from HEROIN EPIDEMIC! It is PAST TIME for a POTUS to deal with this issue of drugs and trafficking & to find out what are the problems at the local levels.
Yah so I don't type so well and there is no edit button haha But I think you should get the main idea. We need to protect our borders and our citizens from DRUGS, SEX TRAFFICKING & Convicts that Cuba & Mexico sends across our borders to get rid of them.
Uhmbe Rhellah ERIC SNOWDEN IS AN AMERICAN HERO!!!! HE DESERVES A MEDAL!! AND THE ONES HE EXPOSED CAN FILL THE EMPTY PRISON CELLS WHEN WE THE PEOPLE REPEAL THE DRUG LAWS. BAMMM PRIBLEM SOLVED.
I'm not American but I like Donald J. Trump. I came to like Him through net TV. he is polite, he inspires peace assurance. I now understand why good american people voted for him. LOVE YOU ALL over there. we are with you.
Greetings from Malaysia. Watching President Trump chat with the Sheriffs, I will say with conviction that I am awe inspired by his warmth and his proclivity to listen and act immediately. Americans ought to be very proud they now have a President who refuses to play to the gallery and just wants to gets things done for the good of their Nation.
Valerie I'm a huge supporter of Trump, and realize the election was stolen from him in 2020. However Trump was dead wrong here. I hope he did some further research because these Police are illegally taking huge money amounts from innocent Americans. It costs them more in legal fees to get that ie: legal $60,000 back so most just let it go. It is police corruption on a huge scale in many cases. I saw one case where a guy was on his way to buy a piece of machinery for his business. He had cash because you get a better deal that way. Cops stopped him for a traffic violation, and found the cash, calling him a drug smuggler.
The People's Sheriffs! I am very proud we have a president who support our elected men and woman who believes in law and order. Let's make America great again with our sheriff's!
Judging by some of the comments, in this thread, it seems they didn't even take the time to watch the whole thing. I'm from the UK and if he was our prime minister I'd be very proud to have him and be very excited for my future. I'm very happy for you, about time.
I am jealous to you guys down in the states up here in Canada our prime minister is concerned just about himself you cannot see this up here here is just whole bunch of thefts 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
Thank you President Trump....We love you...Thank you for loving us the American people...God bless you,your family and the USA.May God strengthen you as you stand strong against the pure evil and wicked ways that have ruled for way to long
im canadian and i love this guy we need someone like him up hereand get rid of our sissy trudeau and get someone with a hardline like trump goodluck boys
I for one fully support Law Enforcement, Fire Rescue and the Military. I also find it refreshing to see what the President is doing in meetings in his first days in office. Previous Presidents ALL their meeting were behind closed doors. This is awesome.
I am not sure why some people don't like Mr President Trump, in my opinion, is awesome! This is the type of relaxed forum is needed to understand the problems in law enforcement and should have been done years ago. Very refreshing to have a President that wants to listen and help.
Proud to call this man our President! Having the Union folks as well as the Sheriff's in the White House like this sends a huge message to the people. I am so thankful!
God bless you President Trump, I am a proud American and proud to have voted for the most honest candidate! The work you are doing, non stop, for the people is greatly appreciated. Thank you one hundred times over, thank you president Trump!
people say donnie is corrupt. if he was why the hell would he call a meeting like this? it goes against logic. donald is the right man for the job. hes a righteous man. he is the light of America
I keep hearing these Sheriffs say "opiates, opiates, opiates." I just hope they realize that most people on prescription opiates are FORCED to take them, due to chronic and unsolvable pain. I know that most people don't want them, but what options do they have? Marijuana would solve the problem (with zero side effects) but states are slow to legalize it. Hopefully these people don't become cannon foddder because a small percentage of people choose to abuse these drugs. Just remember, if the abusers weren't taking opiates, they'd be taking something else -- like alcohol. More regulations aren't going to solve this. Also, in a population of 320 million people, opiate abuse is a drop in the bucket. Alcohol-related deaths are about 50 times that of opiate-related deaths. I'm all for law enforcement, but I'm also a critical thinker, and these sheriffs got a little too excited when the topic of asset seizure was mentioned. Something just tells me there are ulterior motives here. I'm all for excellent community policing, but I'm not for "policing for profit."
Truth Teller It's the heroin and synthetic heroin that are major problems. It is a shame people that actually need prescription pain relief are demonized by media and suffer because of inaccurate reporting.
Truth Teller There are many who doctor hop to get hundreds of prescriptions to sell on the streets to those who are addicted. It's a very big problem in our country.
There has never been a President such as President Trump who brings in the American people to see what he is doing. Watching the open manner of his meetings with the leaders of the communities gives one the connection to him and his Presidency. Only a little over two weeks in office, and he is doing everything he said he would do --- and like he said "my desk will be open for everyone to see"; what a President we have.
