Trump says he’s never heard of “resist” before, that’s b/c he’s a pig.

Koreans remembered the start of the war by having a large anti-US / pro nK rally. Stay classy Korea.

I think they’re “staying classy” because they don’t want more war, something most of those in the military can’t quite grasp. Are they suppose to choose the side of Trump who lies everyday and is ramping up more war(Yemen) in the Middle East without congressional approval i.e. Syria?

CopyCat Queen Ivanka ~
[‘Virtually Identical’: Lawsuit Claims Ivanka Trump Stole Shoe Designs From Italian Label]
Of course, the Trumpette thought her job as daddy’s special White House advisor would keep her out of court.
http://freakoutnation.com/2017/06/virtually-identical-lawsuit-claims-ivanka-trump-stole-shoe-designs-from-italian-label/
“Stealing is a Trump family trait. First her stepmom plagiarized the speeches of the former First Lady and former second wife of her daddy. Next her daddy plagiarized a common phrase which has been used since the 1800s and claims he invented it.

Lying also runs in the family. Like her daddy, Ivanka’s own public statements undermined her lawyer’s defense. You see, Aquazzura’s lawyers cited public statements, one in which she was quoted saying: “There’s not a shoe I’m not intimately involved in designing.”
As reported, Aquazurra sued Ivanka last year, saying her $130 Hettie shoe was a “virtually identical” knockoff of its popular Wild Thing Shoe, including nearly the same color, shape and tassel on the heel, which is priced at $785.
Ivanka’s lawyers haven’t responded to messages seeking comment.
Maybe her daddy will tweet about it.”

Where is Rex Take-a-Nap Tillerson?[Jared Kushner’s meeting with Mahmoud Abbas went so badly that Trump is reportedly considering pulling out of talks]
Previously Trump said to Abbas regarding the peace deal…”We will get it done.” Tee Hee!! Jed Kushner is no John Kerry. Who’d a thunk that gov’t negotiations could be so different and hard compared to real estate dealings involving Russian laundered $$$?
http://www.newsweek.com/kushner-trump-middle-east-peace-628859
“Israeli daily Haaretz reported that Palestinian officials were “greatly disappointed” following their Wednesday meeting with Kushner and Jonathan Greenblatt, Trump’s Middle East envoy.
They sounded like Netanyahu’s advisers and not like fair arbiters,” a senior Palestinian official told the publication.  “They started presenting Netanyahu’s issues and then we asked to hear from them clear stances regarding the core issues of the conflict.”

Which is worse…Disrespect, dishonesty, or racism? With Trump you get the whole documented package!

Trump: “I know it’s a Racist Insult to Pocahontas Heritage to use with Elizabeth Warren but I’m going to continue being Racist…”. But how are the Dems obstructing the GOP’s Killing Trumpcare bill?
http://crooksandliars.com/2017/06/trump-i-call-elizabeth-warren-pocahontas
“Trump admitted on Sunday that using the using the name “Pocahontas” as a racist attack on Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) was an insult to the heritage and memory of Pocahontas — but he suggested that he would continue to do it anyway.
During an interview with Fox & Friends host Pete Hegseth that aired on Sunday, Trump accused Democrats of “obstruction” of his health care reform effort.”

Since when did the President require Congressional approval to ramp-up anything? They’re free to ramp it up; as for war itself well in the 240+ years of America’s existing it’s only been at peace for about 19 yrs. of it and during all that war congress has only declared war for 5 of them so not having Congressional approval’s been the norm.

I’d like a country where a large body (no not that kind CH) votes for stuff like that instead of a handful at the top figuring out an end-around but thanks to this shitty 2-party system we can’t get a thing done.

Tbone since you’re the most hardcore Democrat who posts here I’ll ask you; what’s your opinion on the future of the D? Should they keep the old guard of Pelosi, Schumer, Feinstein, Warren, and Schiff? I’m being serious, no hidden jokes.

Personally I’m not too impressed with the new blood they’ve supposedly injected with Perez & Harris.

Trump now says wall will built with solar panels

https://www.buzzfeed.com/danvergano/trump-solar-wall-stupid?utm_term=.auZNynmbWL#.mvwDY24oP9

Trump was elected promising to “build a wall” with Mexico, anywhere from 200 to 1,000 miles long, depending on the speech, and costing perhaps $67 billion. Screwing solar panels onto this wall would add $1.4 to $4.2 billion to that cost, according to one preliminary industry estimate, with the solar panels possibly generating more than $100 million of electricity every year.

Tbonetylr, what you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response, were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.

Poor Denny…

…doesn’t understand that the wall is the biggest con Trump ever ran.

Every time he adds to the con, the marks… media, liberals, snowflakes, virtue-signalers, etc… scream and gnash their teeth.

Meanwhile, fewer illegals cross the border while even more get deported… and the marks never even realize it is happening.

The Wall is right there… in plain sight… doing its job perfectly… and it didn’t cost a dime.

And this is why Trump is president and the liberals continue to lose state and local elections.

They are blind… and stupid… and suckers… and focused on everything other than results.

And Trump exploits this weakness… while his supporters chuckle with admiration.

Keep fretting over the wall, marks.

Bonus: Trump’s second biggest con was convincing the liberals he is stupid.

Denny,

In your opinion, are solar panels a good return for the investment?

Should the government be investing billions of dollars in solar technology?

Could you support a project that would give a boost to solar manufacturers even if it took upwards of 10-15 years to pay for itself in energy production?

Could you support a wall that would cost anywhere from $15 billion to $67 billion to build but would stem a problem that costs at least that much to taxpayers every single year?

A simple rock throw would destroy the solar panels. Trump chief economic adviser Gary Cohn admits that coal jobs are not coming back and that natural gas, wind and solar are the future because they are becoming less expensive.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/05/26/white-house-adviser-differs-with-coal-loving-president.html

The president’s chief economic adviser is casting doubt on the future of U.S. coal, saying it “doesn’t really make that much sense anymore as a feedstock,” directly contradicting President Donald Trump’s repeated promises to revive the struggling coal industry.

Briefing reporters Thursday night on Air Force One, Gary Cohn singled out natural gas as “such a cleaner fuel.” By exporting more natural gas and investing in wind and solar energy, the U.S. “can be a manufacturing powerhouse and still be environmentally friendly,” Cohn said.

But most full time min wage workers receive government assistance. If you want to get them off welfare, you have to increase their wage to living conditions. There are no easy answers.

A lot of jobs are minimum wage because the company knows the government will pick up the slack… looking at you, Walmart.

This is called corporate welfare… and it is worse than actual welfare.

But it doesn’t matter. Robots will take your minimum wage job… and better paying jobs, too.

Guaranteed minimum income is a term we will hear more and more of.

You and your linked shave it wrong, Denny. The government setting wage and price controls is not capitalism, not even mercantilism, it’s Stalinist communism. And folks who settle for minimum wage do so exactly because they know the government will pick someone else’s pockets so they don’t need to exert themselves. Moochers and looters is what Ayn Rand called them.

Government (and other) unions have their rates set in law as a multiple of the minimum wage. That’s why you see so much SEIU and union participation in these controversies. It’s a smokescreen to cover up scams like those bankrupting Chicago and many other Democrat-controlled cities.

Some of us have a DD-214 that indicates we sacrificed a bit of our lives to keep America free from that poison. Sadly, too many Americans are content to eat government cheese in a subsidized hovel while their leaders eat gourmet cuisine prepared by five-star resorts.
