Revenge politics? When did that become a thing? Oh, right, Julius Caesar and a few disgruntled senators, but other than that it's been nice and amicable.

He's YOUR president. So enjoy!
Is your protest reference supposed to be about the womans march to fight for rights they already have or celebrating the left turning violent and physically assaulting people for wearing pieces of clothing?

I'm beginning to think that the cabinet secretaries are either not receiving or not reading the missives and memos being issued from the White House.
Kelly, Mattis, Tillerson, McMaster have all given statements that directly contradict Trump's.
Kelly had to clarify that no military forces are being used in the carckdown on illegal immigrants.
Mattis and Tillerson had to reassure the European reps at the conference in Germany that the US will come to the aid of any Nato Member. Grant you Mattis also pushed on members pulling their far share.
McMaster has told NSC staffers that the use of the term "radical Islamic terrorism" is not helping as Terrorists are un-Islamic.
DHS put together a memo contradicting the Administrations justification for the travel ban, stating that country of origin plays little or no part in predicting who is going to carry out terrorist acts in the US. They go so far as to point out that of all the deaths that have occurred in the US by terrorist acts carried out by foreign born persons since the 1970's, 98% occurred on 9/11. 1.4 % occured prior to 9/11.
How long will this go on until the White House realizes that they may not be fully in control of their own agenda.

Given the riots unrest and violence spreading across European countries like Germany and France what's NATOs policy in sending NATO soldiers to member countries to combat that civil unrest? Could NATO deploy Peacekeepers to Sweden if it became that that?

Pretty sure Douglas Adam, of Hitchhickers Guide to the Galaxy fame self-described as a "radical atheist". I would probably put Einstein in the "contemplative atheist" category.
Just saying.

Cupper: You are assuming those missives and memo exist. Given the current occupant (s) of the White House, I think you may find that the various Secretaries have been told to just go and run their department, that only the various Executive Orders are issued and distributed, and that the rest is just continuing spewing of campaign rhetoric by the Prez carried out for no other purpose than press (yes, press) consumption (i.e.: i'll continue to make outrageous statements from the W.H. so you guys put it on the TV and provide me with free contact with my base).

How close are these countries to needing more than just their own military to deal with internal security? And I don't mean how close Alex Jones things they are ...Jarnhamar said:

Not necessarily NATO, but they have had a Franco-German Bde since 1987, which made up the nucleus for the EU Corps for several years now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocorps Member nations currently are: Germany, France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Spain.
