What did Bushes do> Or for that matter Trump

The aqueduct?

OK, you have to know Life of Brian for that one.

But seriously, how about, say, the lowest black unemployment rate ever and an overall dramatically improved economy from the moment he was elected?

And the lack of new wars?

Just for starters. By all objective measures, Trump has been an excellent president. But was the question asked with an objective answer in mind?

Clearly it was not.

When asked why I support President Trump I can give clearly defined and specific answers:

-reduction in income tax
-kept us out of war
-historic booming economy and corresponding unemployment rates
- Supreme Court picks
-federal judicial picks
-has united Republicans
-federal criminal sentencing reform
-undoing parts of obamacare

For starters, and off the top of my head. That’s an awful lot to like IMO. And a pretty damn good list considering the left thinks any Trump supporter is a redneck moron.

Ask a Obama or Clinton supporter what they like about those guys and you get 2-3 specifics if you are lucky. Post that request here and maybe you get a copy and paste from some braindead leftist propaganda site like Daily Kos or some other straight bullshit.

I'd say some glittering unverifiable generality like "Wasn't Divisive" or "Unified the Country" or "Gave us hope"

His book doesn't sound nearly as damaging as that of Omarosa's.

Disagree. I think normal will resume quickly after the election and the media runs out of ammo.

We've already seen a return to near normal in just a few weeks in the southeast.

People's attention span is too short now. Impeachment/Russia/collusion were just a few months ago but play out like they happened over a century ago.

Speaking of which, please prioritize your mental health at this point in history. Like, really, truly prioritize it.

And the first step - stop gobbling up Commie propaganda.

Number of protesters killed by police in Hong Kong still sits at zero. More protesters have already been killed by police in these new US protests than in over a year of Hong Kong demonstrations.

How many cops and innocents have been killed by US Rioters? Over a dozen already.

Bernie Bro Girl left that out.

Big market of Returning to Normal:



No matter how much they bitch:

The Chinese authorities dismantling HK's Government, protected by Treaty, okay.

American Leftists burning down blocks of cities, protected by US MSM, Trump better not stop them or he's like the Commies, Okay?

We're going forward.

We must repair the flux capacitator and re-enable the Timeline that warped us onto the Crazy Drag Queen Storyhour reality.

Next stop is ending welfare for unwed mothers, drug addicts, and drunks. We only help the deserving poor.

It’s a real problem how US police brutalize and kill people who don’t obey them.

So why don't you just obey them?DILLIGAF says

Funny how the people who bleat “all lives matter” clearly believe cop lives matter much much more than other lives.

Most sane people think police lives are more important than the thugs trying to kill them. Don't you?

Most of the bootlickers defending acts of police brutality right now are really just defending the brutal way they were parented or the brutal way they parent their kids. Disobey and you deserve to be assaulted.

Close . The truth is all the thugs that resist the police should have been spanked by they daddies when they were still young.
DILLIGAF says

What is it about the government’s goon squad executing people on site for not being submissive enough that doesn’t scream tyranny to you?

Thugs should not resist arrest.

media corruption, of DNC corruption, of government corruption

Now there is the problem.

Really? I suppose you believe Tiananmen ended peacefully?

When you bring up the Chinese Communist Party as an example of good policing you have lost all credibility.

DILLIGAF says

Any chance of fitting in putting at end to our regime change operations and endless mind numbing wars ?

Which new countries did Trump bomb? Obama bombed over half a dozen, and enabled regime changes in both Egypt, Libya, and probably Syria.

Fortunately Sisi runs Egypt now, if we let it up to the Obama Regime & Google, it would still be in the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood.

DILLIGAF says

There seems to be a fixation around these parts with labeling people 'Commies". Any chance of something a bit more creative ?

Reelect Trump. No new wars!

Biden would call Putin a "dog face pony soldier" and start WW3.

Is the author calling redemption of shares a “drawdown”?

I am well versed in investing for retirement but this article is probably an ad for some service or something you pay for.

The actual killer of retirement investment returns is taxes, sorry to give bad news here.

Trump Derangement Sufferers really think US cops are more brutal than the Chinese.

Are you equating Hong Kong's PEACEFUL demonstrations with American rioters and looters?

I doubt it. More like another "reset" one or two years into his presidency.

Well if you love John Bolton so much then why don't you marry him?

Since nobody in this thread has expressed love for Bolton, who is this even directed at?

Our lefty friends want to deepthroat him now. It's painfully obvious.

Onvacation says

Absolutely: one more dead thug is one less thug to run into on the streets. They all make their choice between going to jail and going to hell when they decide to fight cops.

Bolton claimed he and others of the Wisest Smart Crew demanded a regime change/intervention in Venezuela, and Trump didn't want to get involved.

Which was "irresponsible", of course.

There will no doubt be another World War however I do not see it being started by the U.S., Russia or China. We will get dragged if we are not careful but as for starting it - no.

It might be started on the Line of Control between India and China.

Doubt it will turn into a World War though. There is no reason for any outside country to join in.

Didn't know about Shadilay:

Shadilay
Originally an Italo-disco song, Shadilay is a song made by the Italian artist P.E.P.E in the 80's.

It was found on a 7' record with a frog holding a magic wand, with the words 'ASS. ART. PEPE.' on the bottom. This record is an example of the wonders of Meme Magic.

Followers of the ancient god Kek, say this term to praise the dark lord.
"Shadilay brothers!"

"Praise Kek!"

The Irony of it all. The United States condemned the “unjustified use of force” in Hong Kong and called on Beijing to protect Hong Kong’s freedom, a senior official in President Donald Trump’s administration said Sunday

It only looks like irony if you've not read much. Look up "Hong Kong protesters disappeared" for starters. Has the US taken the children of protesters, as China has? Arrested protesters and removed them to mainland China, never to be seen again? Please tell us more about the great and benevolent CCP:

On the other hand, Trump used tear gas to disperse an angry mob adjacent to the White House (at a time when Twitter comms indicated intent to rush and burn said White House). Oh no, tyranny! And St John's Church in Lafayette Park had already been vandalized and burned. Why would Trump imagine that crowd to be a threat? They were "peacefully protesting."

BOO-YAH!

God bless Donald Trump for keeping us out of wars!

He has to wear a bullet proof body Armour under his Power Suit. Thanks scumbag Liberals, he's the hardest working man in Politics around the world next to Putin of course.

He should round all of the Assholes that calls for his death and place them in the muddy pit, of History.

One time,somewhere on the internets, I saw a video of him trying to walk and chew gum. HILARIOUS!

Tim Aurora says

The economy never expanded beyond the 4% that Trump promised (actually he promised 6%) . Obama started the expansion, Trump was lucky to enjoy the first 3 years of that

Is it Trump's economy yet?

Gab has now been banned by Visa.

This is perhaps a good thing. I wouldn't want Visa having records who who paid or donated to Gab.

Racism is absolutely blown out of proportion by the mainstream media.

What’s actually happening is that society is simply appalled (and scared and shocked) by black crime statistics. Black males commit violent crimes at multiples higher than any other demographic out there.

That will drive society’s behavior, no question. And the media makes no distinction between racism vs a concern for ones safety and well being...

That’s it in a nutshell.

Go F yourself with your racism accusations.

every single city will turn into CHAZ with no police and will be run by warlords!

My 20 year old daughter with no college experience interviewed for a part time cashier position at Harris Teeter. They offered her a full time assistant manager position at $22/hr with full benefits after 90 days. We live in northern Virginia.

Yes. This isn't limited to just pharma, either.

Hence why we should abolish the corporate income tax. We will more than make up for it in expansion of income, capital gains and dividends tax revenues as a result. Not to mention more jobs (where the bulk of the income tax revenue increases will come from).

It is just nonsense to do away with the corporate income tax. This would only benefit current shareholders as it would drive up share prices.

Zero is not a lower bound when it comes to taxes. Negative taxes are certainly a possibility. It may come to that as the current crop of aristocrats try to keep the stock prices ever expanding to maintain their status, control and the free money given to the rich by means of capital gains..

Capital gains are not “free money” given to the rich.

They are taxed when you spend them.

I sure like them however; someday I will buy a yacht with my AAPL capital gains.

Please don’t forget to go buy more Apple shit with your free Wuhan virus inconvenience check.
