Things the current president hasn't acknowledged that you think he should
I'll start:
The rampant weekly bomb threats on JCCs around the country. I believe we're up to 50 something JCCs that have been targeted.
Quebec mosque murders.
The hate speech and "hail" actions by some of his supporters.

All those above.
Also, what is going to happen with SS and Medicare? I have been seeing a clip where he adamantly says they won't be touched- but Paul Ryan & co indicate otherwise.
Reassurance for the 20 million people who use ACA that there will be something better to replace it- a real plan- not words.
ETA- Ukraine too.

Medicare, SS and ACA are not going to get answers until his Secretary of Health is confirmed. Trump called the Prime Minister of Canada and offered support. What else is he suppose to do? Bomb threats, very disturbing and upsetting but I don't know what you think Trump is going to do. The FBI is on it when they are caught they should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. I don't know why people think that hate and racism is Trump's fault. It has always been here unfortunately and thinking it is just Trump supporters is ridiculous as there are radicals on both sides.

The fact that abortions are at the lowest level since the 70s thanks to ACA. The fact that over 100 counties in this country have no community health centers show from planned parenthood.
Climate change, preserving our planet, and science in general.

I am sorry I just cannot comprehend this. Trump's fault? Do we forget how Obama was blamed mercilessly for racism for 8 years, as if he created it and therefore could end it just by being black? How is one "radical" about race? Trump is allowing a known Neo Nazi to run the NSC and he is clearly pulling the strings. So the response to racism is to put a Nazi in the White House? I don't understand any of this or how they compute in any way?

So if Obama is not responsible to any racism or hate in this country, why is Trump. It goes both ways. I haven't seen either stop it or make it better. What I meant by radical is that there are people from both sides that do violent things. They are a small group and not the masses from either side. Everyone always seems to lump all republicans/trump supporters as being evil and racist but the truth is that most or not. Of course there are some but they are the few which I do not see anyone approving of.

Are you an actual human being?
I'm sorry but this is so gross. A large minority in this country is on the receiving end of repeated and ongoing violent threats and HE HASN'T SAID A WORD. I never SAID it was his fault and whether I believe it or not, he should at the very least ADDRESS it and say that this isn't what America stands for.
And if you disagree with that, I kindly ask you not to comment on my posts anymore.

If they're not all racist then they would be appalled at the fact that the Muslim ban kept green card holders out, or Iraqi translators that RISKED THEIR LIVES HELPING our troops, or the fact that the countries where the 9/11 hijackers and the San Bernardino shooter came from are NOT on the ban. Or the fact that there's a neo-nazi in the WH and is now in charge of national security. But they're not. They're thrilled. So, I'm sorry but it's hard to see the case you're making.

While I do give him credit for calling the PM, it would have been smart for him to make a public statement. IMO he's afraid it will piss off some of his supporters.
I really struggle to understand how you don't see Trump's impact on the current climate as it pertains to race & religion. He danced around David Duke's endorsement, and only very tepidly condemned all the hate crimes that sprouted after he won, and then only because he was asked about it- independent statements were not made as far as I know. I don't think there was a peep from him about the KKK parade in his honor. And today he gave subtle support to a white supremacist hatemonger. If he needed to weigh in, why not say he disagreed with the content but felt Milo Y. should have been heard?
He has also hired Steve Bannon, and if you look even casually you can find evidence of his anti-Semitism. And Trump has removed white supremacy from anti-extremism initiatives.
I think his views are pretty clear, even if he hasn't stated them.

Of course he didn't invent it but he is NORMALIZING it and all of these vile racists are out and proud to spread it and make minorities feel afraid while POTUS does not condemn them and does or says nothing to reassure said minorities that he is in this for them too.

The WH won't even mention Jews in a statement about the Holocaust. They are not going to be acknowledging JCC bomb threats.

I'm not going to bother quoting anyone because it is not worth it but honestly if you can not see how hateful a few of you are being with your words, you are the ones that are in denial. Again I will say that I have never resorted to name calling but it seems that unless you agree with the selected few you are racist, not a human and evil. Don't bother responding to this because i will not be posting on this board anymore. Take a good look in the mirror because the few of you seem to be most hateful, narrow minded, vile people I have ever come in contact with and can not have a conversation without throwing out one line zingers or calling people names.

Things the current president hasn't acknowledged that you think he should
I need him to address the fact that he is not really a Republican. He may have their backing, he may have used them to get into the White House, but in fact, he is not truly and deeply a Republican at Heart.
I need him to release his tax returns. What makes him so special that he is exempt.
I need him to start acknowledging the Constitution. You can't just make up your own rules. If he is so interested in nominating a Supreme Court Justice who is so uberconservative and breathes original intent, he'd truly follow the Constitution to a T.
I need him to be less on social media and more intellectual, Presidential and Diplomatic.
I need him to call out the racist, mysogynistic bastards who continue to be emboldened by his rhetoric and put a stop to the hate that is spewed forth everywhere.
Can he please acknowledge that he and his wife have no relationship whatsoever? :eyeroll:
He must must must put an end to the antisemitism that has sprouted its ugly head once again.
