    You mean like someone who believes electing a con artist President is the solution to bringing back jobs for the middle class? That kind of fool?

    yeah, we will just leave it up to the private sector and the market. they seem to really care about that type of stuff

    obviously that's why we had to create it cause those things were doing such a bang up job worrying about it

    This is not even cable news. It's an absolute joke how bad the media is in the country. If you don't think they are the liberal machine then you are just willfully ignorant. It's fine though. It just adds fuel to the fire for all of us that are sick and tired of what's been happening the past 20+ years.

    The Democracy needs a "liberal machine" to fight the money machine. At least they apologized, unlike Fox News.

    I never expected the market to respond so quickly to trumps economic agenda. I fear it's happening to fast. But for now things are looking up for the US economy.

    Freestate says the Trump Organization has offered to pay only one-third of the project change and acceleration costs the contractor incurred. The suit contends that Trump’s businesses have a practice of unfairly pressuring contractors to accept reduced payments on projects.

    I'm right there with you on Trump being an awful person, but I'm going to go out on a limb and assume the President is going to have very little control over whether or not the government makes good on payments as contracted.

    Like Obama conning our own race in voting for him to making a promise/difference but in actuality it gotten worse, you mean that con artist?

    It remains to be seen if Agent Orange/Heat Mizer/Dumpster Fire will go down the same lane as Obama, empty promises and difference in our race. At least he is trying for now.

    ...and I am waiting to pounce on him when he doesn't do the job.

    All other stuff outside of nuclear war codes, depriving me of my own feelings, I don't give two schits about.

    In order to judge Trump fairly I think we need to list the campaign promises Obama kept, the ones he reneged on, and the ones he flat out lied. For example, Obama said the fed would not raid state legal marijuana dispencaries. That was an outright lie. Obama said he would run the most transparent administration.



    You could do this with any president. They all lie to get elected. The few that dont get blacklisted like Ron Paul.

    for the market to equal what it did under obama, it will have to end at 50,000

    but i guess we are now taking about the dow as opposed to what i was told under Obama?

    lol

    what a tight rope you are walking trying to not attack obvious things you would be attacking Obama for if he was doing but instead it's the orange abortion

    President Obama spoke about this tension when asked why his administration had ramped up efforts to raid medical marijuana dispensaries.

    “What I specifically said was that we were not going to prioritize prosecutions of persons who are using medical marijuana,” the President told reporters.


    “I never made a commitment that somehow we were going to give carte blanche to large-scale producers and operators of marijuana—and the reason is because it’s against federal law.”

    Toward the end of 2014, Obama took what many saw as a step toward offering increased protection to dispensaries when he signed a new set of spending laws stipulating that federal agents would no longer be allowed to raid medical marijuana dispensaries in states where it was legal.

    That law was upheld in 2015 when a federal court in California said that it was unlawful for the DEA to use federal funds for dispensary raids that were operating according to local and state laws.

    As they scrub the government web sites of Climate Science -- we get un substantiated claims AGAIN of voter fraud.

    All the evidence in the world isn't enough to get the GOP to fight climate change. But no evidence necessary to deny black people the vote

    WOW. Spicer just admitted Trump's 'voter fraud' investigation will focus on states where Trump lost; "urban areas" mentioned specifically.

    For those keeping count, I've found that Bannon, Mnuchin, Priebus, Kushner, and Tiffany Trump are all registered to vote in two locations.

    Tom Bonier ‏@tbonier 38m38 minutes ago

    To be clear, there's no evidence they voted in two states in the same election. The point is Trump calls this fraud. It's not.

    Republicans are worried about Trump's erratic ramblings but they'll only be terrified if he becomes a woman who uses a private email server.

    All Trump has proven is he can sign a piece of paper with a pen. What happens when he needs 60 senate votes for stuff? How is he going to convince people?
