He marks 2 months in office today and he's holding his second rally.

Has any other President ever done this? What is the point in doing this? How much is it costing tax payers?

Does anyone support this idea?

They'll pretend to. 

A bully pulpit is a conspicuous position that provides an opportunity to speak out and be listened to. This term was coined by President Theodore Roosevelt, who referred to the White House as a "bully pulpit", by which he meant a terrific platform from which to advocate an agenda.

He is rallying his supporters and it is GREAT.

He wants the voters to keep putting pressure on THEIR elected officials.

Maybe in the not too distant future,

if we get really lucky,

he can rid the nation of all the troublesome liberals! 

Wow. This election loss is hitting Dorothy a bit harder than everyone else. 

It sure beats going on an international apology tour and bowing down to foreign leaders.

How much did that cost taxpayers? 

Hy not hold rallies?

all politicians do this in one form or another especially when they are receiving negative press. it is like when CEOs have big rah-rah shareholders meetings when the company is showing losses. trump is a business man. 

Snake oil marketing. 

I wish Trump was a president instead of a self-appointed Emperor.

He's still campaigning...needs praise and ego strokes. Gag.

LOL. Were any libs taught history? I am having my doubts with them comparing Trump to a King, Emperor or the old stand by "Hitler".

More than that, they are a bunch of hypocrites. They are upset with Trump with the perceived idea that he is acting like a dictator, but have no problems with the likes of Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Stalin, Lenin,or Noriega (Venezuela and Nicaragua).

And if they cared about women's rights, gay rights et., the last thing they would want is the country flooded with muslims. Good grief.

You mean like the amount of 'town halls' Obama did?
You know, for someone that takes the name like Dorothy Parker, you certainly lack her wit. (Unless halfwit, dimwit or nitwit counts.) 

He does this to feed a narcissistic and fragile ego.

He seems to need this affirmation from small crowds of dedicated "fans". To offset all this bad "fake news".

Psychological analysis by dr amdg 

I agree with your assessment, Dr. AMDG. 

The trumplings keep showing up. Eventually his crowds will dwindle. 

Karras -

In your experience, do snowflakes always complain this much?

. 

I concur as well, AMDG.

Let's face it, as I said on another thread, there isn't much profound thought going thru the man's head. It's whatever hits him at the moment, which plays well in a pep rally type setting. 

Wow. POTUS really triggers the KU snowflakes.

When has the left cared about spending.. all of a sudden it's a problem 

When did the "right" stop caring about spending..all of a sudden its not a problem

The point? Twitler needs his fix of adoration.

LMFAO 

Hillary never going to prison? Check.
Federal Reserve still running the show? Check.
War efforts ramping up? Check.
Replacing the swamp with equally sketchy individuals? Check.
Absolute continuation of the status quo? Check.
Tax-payers footing the bill for a moronic wall? Check.

I'm wondering how long it's going to take Americans to wake up to the false two-party illusion. Same sh!t, different day. 

Replacing the swamp with equally sketchy individuals? Check.


Even worse when you factor in the nepotism. The only saving grace (thrown in for the RW religous among us)is Trumpty DUMP will not last a full term. 

Trumpty DUMP will not last a full term.

A---M---E---N !!!!!!!!!!!! 

The same polls that told you Hillary was going to win must be telling you this. 

She won the popular vote by 3 million votes. This was reflected in the polls.

Funny. My 5 year old niece understands, but you don't. 

She won the popular vote by 3 million votes. This was reflected in the polls.

Did Hillary and the polls not understand that it's not the popular vote that gets you elected? 

Do you understand that polls reflect popular vote?

That must really sting deep for you. You mention it at every opportunity. It must hurt a lot... 

It's the cause of him lurking and posting on KU at 2am. 

It wasn't 2am. It was 1:59am. Don't cause another conniption fit in cuzz.

That's the ONLY thing fuzz81 can claim. Too bad they weren't in the right place. I wonder how many states she carried. The whole reason for the electoral college is to give each state EQUAL representation in the election. 

Empty space can't vote 

Empty space can't vote

Were you able to vote? 

Did I claim I was? 

Once again fuzz81 is not worth the effort. Who cares what he thinks???? HE'S NOT A CITIZEN. 

In answer to the question in the title:...Because he can!
