    You do realize 57 no one really cares about those links. But to throw you an olive branch, is it really good therapy for you?

    If it helps you tell yourself that it makes you feel good, go for it. If it is for us to read, good luck getting anyone to read those links. What is done is done, there is no going back. Just those who had to deal with Obama, now the other side have to deal with Dumpster Fire.

    That is how America rolls. If you ever heard of the song "Move Bitch.... Get Out Way!" which most people have, some words describe what is going on in the now.

    I don't see it anywhere this morning so it looks like it was BS. FWIW, when I saw it I wasn't able to confirm it anywhere else and wondered about it. The article only said that unnamed sources in the Trump camp said that Giuliani had the job but had to wait while Trump went through 'some motions'. I'll try and find it again.

    wow, just wow
    I don't think that's exactly right. Pence had offered the tax cut before and Carrier rejected it. According to the WSJ, Carrier's parent company, a huge government defense player, was pretty much told to make this deal happen or maybe things wouldn't be so great in the future for them. This is actually worse then what you stated.

    great job with your phone calls dunce elect

    Japan already stating they might give distance from the USA and obviously pissed of China with the call with Taiwan

    the Pakistan call is just

    his call with Kazakhstan is just laughable

    and last but not least, his praise for The Philippines and an invite to Washington while Duterte is going through and murdering people and threatening the media there with the same


    great ****ing job loser

    unbelievable lack of diplomacy and geo politics going on here.

    Will taxpayers end up paying for security at Trump's international hotels? Probably not, since he doesn't really own most of them or have his own money in them. But it seems there is a good chance they could be attacked because of things Trump may do or say. I wonder if their insurance premiums are going up.

    Good point weso1. I was unaware that Pence had previously offered the tax cut. I just hope the price of a Whopper doesn't get to high so that Trump feels he has to haul in the Burger King brass and threaten to forbid government employees from eating there unless they cut the price.

    Did Trump team orchestrate the Taiwan call behind the WH's back? He may get impeached before he even takes the oath.

    The Logan Act (1 Stat. 613, 18 U.S.C. § 953, enacted January 30, 1799 )
    is a United States federal law that forbids unauthorized citizens from negotiating with foreign governments having a dispute with the U.S. It was intended to prevent the undermining of the government's position.

    Trump believes he can do anything and get away with it, but the crimes and misdemeanors will add up quickly. This Congress may already be planning to oust Trump and give the office to Pence. He's looking pretty savvy right now.

    yeah, the more you look at this "deal"

    the worse it is and is totally opposite of what he said he was going to do

    I am coming to believe I have more respect for the Trump voter than the ones who sat it out due to lesser of two evils.

    Don't forget this:

    You are still pushing this fake news?

    First you bought into the story pushed by a guy who 'worked' for Jerry Springer that claimed Trump raped a minor, then you were duped by the 'Make American White Again' photoshop, and now you're out again with this blatant mischaracterization.

    How about something not pulled from an e-mail chain message?

    Its embarrassing at this point. Liberals are in free fall and they have no clue what to do. They have lost their grip on power and the future is looking bleak for their ideology.

    In terms of the exact parameters of the deal it's certainly wanting ... but if you choose to treat it as a narrative about the government being willing to work with companies compelled to sending jobs abroad it's consistent with Trump's line about America being open for business again.

    Exactly. Prior to this type of move the alternative was just allowing the company to send all their jobs to another country. At least some of the revenue / tax dollars / wages are staying within the borders. Globalism has destroyed the middle class in this country.
