Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

If Sanders has the "economic understandings of a 5 year old," then Trump has the economic understanding of an infant. (Along with every other issue.)

So that's a terrible argument in favor of Trump over Sanders.

 

My state hasn't even voted yet. I am looking forward to watching the news tonight and see what about half the country has done to fuck us so far.

Come on FBI.

 

I do think it's funny that when Democrats use trade/jobs/manufacturing argument against Republicans, there's no bush back against the argument from the media.

But now, since Trump and Bernie are using it against Hillary, we're getting all of these explainer articles telling us how wrong those arguments are.

The Marines don't anywhere near the available heavy-lift helicopters it needs.

Democrats need to tell voters the truth: First, trade is good for the economy, providing cheap imports and markets for exports, spurring productivity and raising living standards.

 

Meanwhile, Hillary is trying to convince folks she was against her husband's trade deal, and the Obama trade deal she helped to negotiate, and once called the gold standard for trade deals.

Congenital liar.

THE 2000 CAMPAIGN: ADDRESSING CHANGE; Gore and Bush Agree on Basics, But Differ Sharply on the Details

Mr. Gore and Mr. Bush agree on some broad themes. They both embrace free trade in the increasingly global economy, in contrast to the third-party contenders, Patrick J. Buchanan and Ralph Nader, and many Congressional Democrats.

 

No.

Not "meanwhile."

This is what you said:

I do think it's funny that when Democrats use trade/jobs/manufacturing argument against Republicans, there's no bush back against the argument from the media.

And it was provably wrong.

 

Vets have been poorly treated since at least Vietnam. No one screamed "Beirut" after the U.S. cut-and-ran. Not too much gnashing of teeth from the right when the hostage crisis started in 1982 in Beirut. Listen to Lee Greenwood all you want, but that doesn't mean jack regarding policy.

Keep on truckin'.

 

Is there more or less push back today?

So, you found an article or two from the past.

LIBERAL opinion journalists are making the case now.

 

I thought the FBI was in near-revolt over Hillary? You mean they're not?
