President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

And now it's coming out that Obama warned Trump against hiring Flynn - but his advice was rejected.

 

And, of course, the GOP falls on familiar turf: Blame Obama! It's not getting old ... it IS old. Can't do your own research?

Or is it one of those things "Obama said I shouldn't hire him. He's trying to trick me, so I will." Given Trump's limited brain capacity, I'm betting on the latter. The "fuck Obama" forces are strong with him.

 

"Obama's people vetted and cleared Flynn". Yeah, and fired him.

 

There's a 20-year difference in life expectancy between counties in the USA. That seems large.

Life Expectancy Can Vary By 20 Years Depending On Where You Live

 

If they had such concerns about Flynn, why did they renew his security clearance in 2016?

 

Does anyone believe it's as simple as "where you live"?

I'm sure the article covers it, but it's a stupid, simplistic headline.

 

Many of the other counties with the lowest life expectancy are clustered along the lower Mississippi River Valley as well as parts of West Virginia and Kentucky, according to the analysis.

Why would we want these people to live longer??

 

It's tough to fit "Life Expectancy Can Vary By 20 Years Depending On Socioeconomic Factors And Lifestyle Choices By Individuals Who Happen to Live In The Same County" in a headline.

 

I knew that this was coming back.

 

You mean just physically being located n Pine Ridge, SD, doesn't lower life expectancy? There are other factors at play? Who would have guessed?

 

But location is certainly one of the factors involved. And could contribute to the other factors as well.

 

This will likely be mocked but I love what he says.
