President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

I hope the Trump tax bonuses for workers doesn't blowback like the Trump Carrier air conditioner deal has.

More layoffs at Carrier factory Trump touted last year

 

What Michael Wolff Got Right About Donald Trump

 

YGBFKM.

She’s blaming a cold?

What constitutional amendment can remedy this?

 

Who cares? It's a win for transparency.

 

Fuck Grassley anyway. You want hardball, here's some hardball.

 

Not really political but I'm not starting a new thread. And I'm sure we can make this political without much effort.

 

And this is why collusion between Trump and the Russians is not a direct link. It is circuitous. Trump & Sons, LLC wanted dirt on Hillary and they didnt care where it came from. They were in a playground war. The Russians wanted Hillary to be dirtied and bloodied and impotent when she was elected, as they presumed. She would be too bogged down in impeachment hearing and faux and FoxNews scandals to effectively be Presdient and then Putin and RUssia wold fill the international vacuum. The Russian Intelligence apparatus and independent contractors, through Wikileaks, hammered the democrats. Trump didnt seek their help, it was not done to help Trump win, an impossiblity for rational humans, even Russians. (Unless they hacked the votes and manipulated Michigan Wisconsin and Pennsylvania totals).
They Russians were willing to use the trump campaign and provide them with help, mostly indirect.

What you want most in an adversary is predictability. Hillary’s moves internationally and even domestically would have been predictable and Russia sought disruption. Trump is unpredictable because he has no plan. He moves from tweet to tweet. No overall strategy. And the American Media, afraid of its own shadow, was afraid of being fair by being honest and pointing out the fallacy of each candidate. That would mean focusing 95% on an unstable moron and a daisy chain of idiots. That’s why Bannon tried so hard to suck his own dick, there was no one competent in the campaign to even suck a cock.

The Russians didn't need collusion and cooperation from Trump, he is an unwitting dupe. Oh, and the dossier is probably mostly true.

 

Wal-Mart raises wages, then closes Sam's Club stores across the country to pay for it. Yay, Trump tax cuts!

 

If not a sideline three-way?

 

Good on the companies providing raises, for whatever reasons they cite.

 

To be fair, Sam's Club is not long for this world anyways, is it? Costco does it better in-store and Amazon kicks their ass at everything else. And it makes all the sense in the world for Walmart to use some of them as distribution centers.
