We don't need "establishment" expertise anymore

That's right. You have to have no experience in government, be below average intelligence, and believe you have great intuitive instincts about how the world works, if you're really going to change the world.

I'm quite happy with that kind of return, especially since my principal is also up more than 15% from where I bought in.

I'm curious - what % of your liquid net worth did you invest in this single stock?

@FP less than 2%

Bush wrote a budget that expanded the size of the federal government on day one? I never knew that. Learning more and more on this thread. Any idea why he did not use it until year 7?

in your tiny fucking troll mind, do you not remember the outcry over that simpleton's election? and every year after?

even in 2017 - you are attempting to blame bush for obama's increase of the federal workforce at least through 2012.

genius!

"If you grab my Brit pussy, allies or not, I'm gonna nuke you!"

"You sound like a Russian apologist."

That might be the understatement of the year.

I am sure Japan is think about making its own nuclear weapons. I have no doubt about it.

Didn't dislike quote, however that statement is simply not credible

Tim Aurora says

You sound like a Russian apologist. Russia has annexed Crimea , it has sent its troops to Georgia and it has quashed a civil war in Syria which made millions homeless.

Aaaaand, this is all worse than buddying up with Saudi Arabia because? So far, all I got is crickets on this question.

Coming from Saudi apologist, this is comedy gold

Any country that can't survive without special dispensations via the World Bank and IMF, which the US Controls.

How come Mr know it all can't put two and two together? Could it be that all his talking it's are near verbatim rehash of some MSM site?......nooo, that couldn't be it at all

T L Lipsovich says

Yep, so stop outsourcing to China. Tell Samsung and Walmart they can't sell electronics manufactured in China.

Stop giving security clearance requiring jobs to people who are in h1-B.....doubt Clinton would have done jack shit about that ...we will see how trump does on this matter

China is now presenting that it will pickup the reigns of responsible environmental policy, since we are dropping it.

China where the government pressures news reporters to stop issuing smog alerts.. BWAHAHAHAHA

Where do they come up with this drivel?

APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says

Chick ended up with a shithouse situation to start with,

Please elaborate, what is this 'shithouse situation' you speak of?

"Coming from Saudi apologist, this is comedy gold"

wtf? What the hell are you talking about? Please show any instance of me apologizing for Saudi. I'll be waiting with bated breath.

"Aaaaand, this is all worse than buddying up with Saudi Arabia because? So far, all I got is crickets on this question."

False choice. How about we don't buddy up with either.

Yes, you do need 'establishment' expertise for most positions.
However, to force change that pols are unwilling to execute because of lobbyist obligations, throwing a wrench into a top position or two may get the car started.

Rew says

Why not! Trump is doing the same. We don't need "establishment" expertise anymore.

Make America Mediocre ... Again.

How much is Trump making off the deal?

Sounds like a good thing.
US gets a cut of the foreign mob cash.

APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says

They Want to Launder Russian Mob Money. Get a Clue.

This is not official business with potentially classified information. Very different and in no way comparable to HC issue. Although DT may want to think about securing this account to avoid it being hacked and taken over.

Tim Aurora says

Ah, so USA is the Imperialist. What country is our colony ?

Seriously!?

Puerto Rico
Hawaii
Guam
*Any country where we have a military base.

Iraq
Afganistan
Syria
Yemen
*Any country we bomb the shit out of just because we can.

My, you ARE starry eyed...

Been in one for over a 100 years Tim. Maybe you should research fascism a little more closely.

NuttBoxer says

*Any country where we have a military base.

144 of them, the sun never sets on the US empire.

This is same shit as IHLary pulled and it needs to stop.

It's all Trump's fault!

I thought you were talking about Chinese and Korean government.

Nobody says

I thought you were talking about Chinese and Korean government.

I thought he was just repeating what they tell him on the TV.

This is not based on fact:

See for instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-communism

From an Escapee of Russia:

Those brushes with communism’s downsides prompted Menaker and many of her friends to embrace capitalism with a rabid intensity.
“Socialism is a conspiracy of losers against achievers,”

Menaker said. “America is the only country where you can come naked with no language and make it in 25 years.”

jazz music says

What was your point?

Whenever a small group of power hunger losers tell you that they can fairly control the means of production, make everyone wealthy, and protect the workers, - you are being scammed.

Only when each person has the (liberty) to work hard in the private sector, love his neighbors and employees (Fraternite), and works in good faith to build items and treats others fairly(Egalitarian) can a society advance.

“Socialism is a conspiracy of losers against achievers,”

Wikipedias anti communism has 3 relevant first paragraphs:

Anti-communism is opposition to communism. Organized anti-communism developed in reaction to the rise of communism, especially after the 1917 October Revolution in Russia. It reached global dimensions during the Cold War, when United States and the Soviet Union engaged in an intense rivalry.
Most modern anti-communists reject the concept of historical materialism, which is a central idea in Marxism. Anti-communists reject the Marxist belief that capitalism will be followed by socialism and communism, just as feudalism was followed by capitalism. Anti-communists question the validity of the Marxist claim that the socialist state will "wither away" when it becomes unnecessary in a true communist society. Anti-communists also accuse communists of having caused several famines that occurred in 20th-century communist states, such as the Russian Famine of 1921 and the much more severe famine in China during the Great Leap Forward.
Some anti-communists refer to both communism and fascism as totalitarianism, seeing similarity between the actions of communist and fascist governments.[1]
Opponents argue that communist parties that have come to power have tended to be rigidly intolerant of political opposition. Communist governments have also been accused of creating a new ruling class (a Nomenklatura), with powers and privileges greater than those previously enjoyed by the upper classes in the non-communist regimes.

Is Clinton, Obama, Sanders, Pocahautus liberal, leftist, socialist, or Bolvshevik (socialist first, communist 3 years later)

Twin towers x2

Step 1. Voting for Republicans or Democrats.
It's the only path one needs to follow that will lead to the destruction of america.

From personal experience, all of the people I've met in the US from former communist countries of eastern Europe are very pro-capitalism.
