Yay, more 'positives.' Imagine if he'd keep up the persona he's having on this foreign trip!

I think the positives have always been there, behind the scenes. The dems don't want anyone seeing any success from Trump either.

There's no doubt that the media is as tied to 24/7 news cycle as are the politicians. If he doesn't 'make' news that's unfavorable, they still have to fill the time and space. They jump on his every tweet and off-the-cuff remark. He controls that much. He can't stop the focus on polls and such, but those are not a 7 day a week to fill all.

Eventually they do have to cover the other news, like this or the Harvard media report-which has now been covered by just about every source I read.

Need specifics from him. Obama gave 3B dollars and increased Pell Grants.

I"m sure financial help will be there, but sometimes it's more than that.

...

the Trump administration has been far more responsive to our community than the past administration,” Taylor said. “I, for one, judge people by what they do -- not what they say.”

petey. READ UP before you post, will ya? Your KEY WORD above was "GAVE". In reality. Obama gave our money away with no requirements. And never touched the ABUSE and WASTE aspects of those Pell grants, BEING USED, and WASTED BY PROFIT COLLEGES.
But you won't tell us that, because it doesn't meet your UNINFORMED post.

"The move, which both Democrats and Republicans in Congress pushed for last year, runs counter to the widely held belief among student loan advocates that a Trump White House will be cozy with the for-profit industry since the president fought allegations that his namesake school, Trump University, defrauded students. He later agreed to pay $25 million to settle related lawsuits, an agreement that coincidentally was approved in court (https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwitp6XBwI3TAhXogFQKHRzmAJMQFggdMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.usnews.com%2Fnews%2Fus%2Fart icles%2F2017-03-31%2Fjudge-appears-close-to-approving-trump-university-settlement&usg=AFQjCNHXHk8h4T7tc4MI-s6mZIv1jvdYXQ&sig2=_R2VUJCaEtlOXaibREJ1gg&bvm=bv.151426398,d.eWE) last week."

It means he has responded to their communications and needs - and that the jagoff prior ignored them.

No details, I guess that means the president of the college and others are just plain 'ol lying then!

petey....you're busy throwing out more RED HERRINGS"

You failed to mention that the TRUMP University lawsuit had, and has nothing to do with the future 2018 Federal Budget. Funny how being totally honest would make your remarks more True if you didn't intentionally skip over ALL OF THE FACTS.
