President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

He certainly provided the statement you'd expect from someone laughing in the background and saying, "who, me?"

 

SouthEAST Missouri State, goddammit. I will defend the good name of Southwest Missouri State.

 

It is sort of funny when certain people call out other’s lack of schooling.

@Azrael doing it would be as bad as me doing it.

 

Just to be absolutely clear, I was not setting a trap for @Azrael (or anyone, for that matter) with my attribution of that quote to Rush Limbaugh. It was a joke ... I assumed everyone would see that.

 

My many semesters of unrequited schooling are what entitle me to the joke!

 

Well, that's a credible source.

 

Secret Service spent $137,000 to rent golf carts at Trump courses

 

When Trump visited Jersey City on Sunday to watch the Presidents Cup, the Secret Service paid $15,600 for the installation and removal of bullet-proof glass so he could watch the tournament.

I should've gone to school to install bulletproof glass.

 

Europe helped draft the Iran nuclear deal. Now E.U. leaders seek to save it from Trump pressure.

Trump plans next week to declare that the 2015 Iran deal — which curbs Iranian nuclear activities in exchange for sanctions relief — is no longer in the U.S. national interest, according to U.S. and European officials. Such a move would then give Congress 60 days to vote to reimpose sanctions.

This could pave the way for the deal’s collapse or, more likely, Europeans and others such as China and India could keep up their growing economic and diplomatic engagement with Iran with the United States on the outside looking in.

“The risk [of sanctions] is there, but my perception is that everybody outside the U.S. who participated in the deal wants to increase relations with Iran,” Ulrich Von Zanthier, director of financial risk management at KPMG, a global audit and advisory firm, told the conference.

 

Yeah, but the insurance premiums you might have to pay just in case the installation wasn't properly done . . .

 

Better get those women to start dressing more modestly too!

 

The mandate covers employer-provided insurance. So it covers women with jobs. Presumably most of them are adults. Fear of sexual activity by others has been a huge part of the US right wing for eons.
