That's a good point, but I have to counter that your exception is still right wing.

Refs?
What about trade protectionism?

I had forgotten about trade protectionism but I'm skeptical any but the far left is agreeable.

subego: How do standards of what we expect of the president factor into the analysis of his meaning? Either the analysis is correct or it is not.
Dakar: Because we have expectations someone in his position chooses his words carefully.
s: Does he choose his words carefully? I claim he does not, so interpreting his words as such will lead to incorrect analysis. The fact he should choose his words carefully has zero impact on whether he does.

Looking at federal statistics, the vast majority of federal drug prisoners are non-white. I assume anyone Sessions targets will not be going to state jail.
This is absurd. It's the "I have a black friend" defense. I posit this: Is it easier to get a muslim ban enacted if you ban all countries or only a few countries?
If you want to get rid of all muslims, do you only take a binary position, or do you take what you can get?
It wouldn't work if it didn't disproportionately impact one race. They are intrinsically linked.
Ok, let me approach this another way: Wouldn't the timing of the promulgation of these laws indicate racist intent?
---
Allow me to make my point another way: Including past GOP administrations of the last 30 years or so, where would you rank this one in terms of most overtly impacting or targeting people of color in the US?
This administration comparatively scores very badly when it comes to immigration. Reagan had an amnesty program, and Bush 43 loved him some brown people, but his party shot him down. When it comes to drugs, pretty sure Reagan's people started the crack epidemic, so this administration hasn't even anted-up yet.
I'll work up individual answers.

I don't understand this last bit, the way it works is to impact the party. Why wouldn't it work on white People?
Trump will never ban the Saudis or the UAE. How do you get a Muslim ban if these Muslims will never get banned?
My point about state vs. federal is a State's attorney can put away 10,000 POC for every 1,000 an AG can put away.
I claim the administration is classist with their immigration policy because it's been the poor immigrants which bother them. Rich Mexicans (for example) are fine.

White people aren't reliably democrat. Here, try this coincidence: The laws started appearing after democratic president made AA turn-out surge.

That's a point about effectiveness, not disparity of enforcement.

Okay, being able to review the convo, here's the point that's been lurking below the surface to me: If he doesn't speak plainly/well, doesn't that allow him to retcon what he meant?
It's almost like lawyerly semantics but in reverse. Speak so poorly no one can pin you down.

Assuming this is sarcasm, I don't think there's a good way to scientifically measure such things. As it is, I think we overrate how much of an impact presidents have. IMO, too much of their impact is emotional, anyway (see: Wall Street)

I mean, I'd actually like to see a chart, but I know that's not at thing. It's mostly a snipe at how if good things are happening and your candidate is in office, it'd due to his or her actions. If your opponent is in office, it's because your candidate set them up for success.

The only chart I've seen is in terms of raw numbers dem presidents are better than GOP ones. Anecdotally I agree but it's likely too superficial.

The point is not that the Fox chart doesn't support my argument, it's that it doesn't support logic, causality, or apples/apples comparisons.
more comparable comparisons:
change from bush last quarter to obama first quarter
vs
change from obama last quarter to trump first quarter.
The fox news chart was either intentionally disingenuous, or designed by idiots.

Sure. I don't believe there's much to interpret. Different set of circumstances. Apple to Orange President comparison.

I understand that, so instead of whining about how you're not seeing the metrics that support that argument, you could present them to us! You've even already told us what you want to present!
more comparable comparisons:
change from bush last quarter to obama first quarter
vs
change from obama last quarter to trump first quarter.
I will gladly discuss those with you! Let's see em! You have google, right?
The fox news chart was either intentionally disingenuous, or designed by idiots.
Or designed for pageviews, like every other media source lib or conservative.
Sometimes the answer is so simple it surprises me that they still get your attention with sensationalism.

Sure, I could find the data for you and I to discuss... but the point isn't for US to discuss. We already know the fox chart is silly, right?
The point is, not just that it's WRONG, but that it is presented as fact by a news organization, and that is what a lot of fox's audience will buy into hook line and sinker. This only contributes to a disconnect from reality, and it's how idiots get other idiots elected. To those of us who are NOT idiots, it feels like swimming upstream when the idiot dam has burst. Tiring, and over time, seemingly pointless. All hail the idiot king!
I am not a news organization. I am not responsible for upholding news information standards, but I am allowed to be aghast.

I mean, I don't think even that is a reasonable comparison. The US was in a terrible recession then, and right now the US seems to be in a steady place. I don't need to see the data to know a lot of jobs were lost during Obama's 1st Q.

These numbers have no bearing on the performance of these Presidents. The Trump administration hasn't passed a single big piece of legislation, so it couldn't have had any influence on the stats yet. By this time Bush 2 already had signed No Child Left Behind. If anything you should compare the stats of previous Presidents when they took office with those when they left office. Obama came to power during the height of an economic crisis. Trump's incoming numbers are actually Obama's outgoing numbers, so if you want to judge Obama's Presidency based on that, you have your answer.
What I find more disturbing, though, is how much power and responsibility Americans ascribe to the President and how little Congress takes. During 6 years of Obama's 8 years in office, the GOP held at least one chamber. Why don't they take more pride and responsibility that during this time, the meltdown of the US economy was prevented and it recovered?

Wasn't that in spite of the GOP for the most part?
If congress got the credit it deserved, most of the sitting members probably wouldn't be there right now.

I understand your argument, and I agree with the sentiment. But in a democracy, the main responsibility should go to the parliaments, and if that were the case here, then the party which has the majority in Congress may take more initiative because it is their responsibility, their gain in case of success and their loss if things go badly.

I'd attribute some of this normalization to Bannon losing influence, but I suspect most of these stances he's contradicting were taken before Bannon joined the campaign.

This is only noteworthy because the trouble comes from them being understaffed.
In a related note, Trump did lift his hiring freeze after 80 days.

First, the meltdown was not prevented. It happened.
Second, it's not like we republicans weren't screaming "STOP LETTING THE PRESIDENT GIVE HIMSELF MORE POWER HE SHOULD NOT HAVE" during Obama's 8 years. The ends justified the means at the time, so here we are now. On these very boards I warned of that several times in several threads.
He had a pen and a phone, and now he's out of office. Too bad the next president also has a pen and a phone, and so will the next one and the one after that.

There was a huge financial crisis, but the collapse of several branches of industries was prevented by state intervention (due to Bush 2 and continued by Obama).

Powers Congress has (either willingly or by inaction) ceded to the Presidency are never recovered. Blaming the guy from the opposite party doesn't cut it. Nothing prevents Congress to assert more power and start to take some back. The GOP is following exactly the same pattern as the Democrats have: they were lenient on Bush, tough on Obama and are again lenient on Trump. The competition of Congress and the Presidency for power that the Founding Fathers have envisioned isn't working properly because political parties weren't part of the design. Why didn't Trump seek for congressional authorization for the military strike in Syria? Trump based this on Obama's decision that he was within his rights to attack Libya, something the GOP protested against. Seeing how many hawks on both sides support the attack, I don't think Congressional support was ever in doubt. Start here, start when “your guy” is in power.
Back to my original point, if the party in control of Congress (here, the GOP) would take more credit for the development of the country during that period, they'd also feel more responsibility to improve things as any failure would reflect badly on them.

I wouldn't be so sure. This rich asshole happened to own the modeling agency she was working for and may have held her residency in his hands when she was working illegally.

True, we're talking semantics here, but I personally would classify the crisis as a meltdown, as the housing market melted down.
Powers Congress has (either willingly or by inaction) ceded to the Presidency are never recovered. Blaming the guy from the opposite party doesn't cut it.
I don't blame the ruling class for seeking more power. That's human nature. I blame the constituencies for not only letting it happen, but for supporting it. My entire problem with liberalism is that at every turn, the ends always justify the means, and it will not be long before the unintended consequences of the shortsightedness will come to fruition. Bush did it with the patriot act, Obama did it with his pen and his phone, and now Trump has way more power than he otherwise would. The ones before him opened the door to cheers from the audience. You're right that aside a revolution or unprecedented supreme court ruling the cat is out of the bag.
Nothing prevents Congress to assert more power and start to take some back.
Human nature ensures that asserting more power is a given, and "taking some back" is a pipe dream.
The GOP is following exactly the same pattern as the Democrats have: they were lenient on Bush, tough on Obama and are again lenient on Trump.
The ruling class vs us, as I have been saying for years. It's not just the GOP doing this.
The competition of Congress and the Presidency for power that the Founding Fathers have envisioned isn't working properly because political parties weren't part of the design.
No, it's because we've allowed the courts to gut the checks and balances built into the design to suit their own ends ostensibly to benefit us, but in reality to push their own agendas. This should not be surprising to anyone familiar with the history of societies throughout our specie's history.
Why didn't Trump seek for congressional authorization for the military strike in Syria? Trump based this on Obama's decision that he was within his rights to attack Libya, something the GOP protested against. Seeing how many hawks on both sides support the attack, I don't think Congressional support was ever in doubt. Start here, start when “your guy” is in power.
Trump is not my guy. Pay attention to what I am saying here.
Why would Trump seek congressional approval when the precedent, supported by the masses, is that he does not need it??
Should I also remind you that we've been performing airstrikes in Syria for years? This wasn't out of the blue, nor was it any different than what previous administrations have been doing.
Back to my original point, if the party in control of Congress (here, the GOP) would take more credit for the development of the country during that period, they'd also feel more responsibility to improve things as any failure would reflect badly on them.
They don't need to take credit. They already control both houses and presidency, and none of them care about the future beyond their next election.
What possible benefit to them would your strategy bring them? You act as if anyone in Congress truly cares about what's best for us. 11 times out of 10, when the decision point for a lawmaker is between "benefits me or my next election" vs "does not benefit me and/or hurts my chances in the next election" they will pick the former, no matter the long term ramifications or precedent being set. To view our, or any other ruling class in any other light is foolishly naive, no matter the party or ideology they belong to. Sure, you can find exceptions, but to deny it as a whole is to deny human behavior itself.
That is what is so exceptional about our founding and our constitution, and why it is up to us to maintain it's provisions. We cannot rely on the ruling class to rule against themselves.

I feel like congress being in recess stabilized Trumps approval. Curious if when they get back next week it starts jumping around again.
Of course the possibility of a shutdown or shutdown brinksmanship may get factor in as well.
