Yeah, I thought the Dems could have managed to seem enthusiastic about some of the things Trump mentioned last night...but, this has become such an "angry" division among our population that I think the Dems just believed their best action was to take no action either way.

I wish I could see it your way, Al...sure, the world of business seems to be jumping on the Trump wagon...that's to be expected, it's what he's done all of his life and he has what HE thinks are good ideas about how to proceed. I'm not sure I see it his way. It's obvious from what I've heard that the only portion of the population who will see any sort of financial boost is the already wealthy...again, it's what Trump knows, he wouldn't know how to talk to a coal miner if they dumped a truckload of coal on his doorstep. He's never been or done anything other than what lifestyle the affluent would have, so he doesn't understand the day-to-day struggles that those of us in the middle class face...and as I see it he doesn't just understand those struggles, he doesn't want to. He only "caters" to the wealthy.

Class warfare, anyone? I've predicted it for about a decade and hope I'm wrong, but if we have a POTUS who caters only to his socio-economic peers, the ultra-wealthy, how can we really believe that he has our good fortune in mind?

Right....we can't.

Some of us believe that more than just the stock market has to get better in order to see Trump as a positive force for change. Those with whom I talk really wish Trump would have at least some empathy for them, but there is little hope left when it's obvious Trump doesn't care for the common man...only those who are in his income bracket.

I must admit, if I'd been in that chamber last night, I'd probably have sat on my hands, too. He's not doing what I think is necessary...far from it.

Seriously, you guys live in a bubble. The fact that he's insulted literally everyone around the globe, but for Putin, and called a portion of the globe a $hithole, might actually bother some people. People of color.

He deserves some credit for the last year, because my stock portfolio has increased. But then my portfolio began its ascent back in 2009 after Obama took over for Bush. He lauds the stock market and unemployment rates, but then just a few years ago, he called those same numbers bogus.

And at the moment, we're borrowing $1.5 Trillion from the debt to finance the economy over the next ten years. So that certainly will make things great for the "shareholder class," in the short term; however, we the people will pay later when interest rates increase alot later and we get inflation.

He read off a teleprompter, let's get excited that he can still read. And he didn't fall over during the 90-minute speech from eating too many cheeseburgers in bed.

He's a F'ing Moron, per Rex Tillerson. And Mueller is still coming after him and his band of losers in the White House.

That’s as far as I could get because of that last line. The hypocrisy of the left’s fake feelings for anyone but themselves is outrageous. It’s incredibly difficult to take anyone serious or believe in their points of view when they bring up the race card.

Nothing to see here. Just more fake outrage.
 
The stock market was up over 30% for the last year, -2.5% is a bump in the road. Funny it took a 500 point loss in 2016 with Obama which was a larger percentage, and you never said a word. Hmmm.. You want him to fail so badly you are willing to see everything go in the shitter. I don't like Obama, but I've never been as hysterically filled with hate and malice as you.

More fake news.

1. I don’t know of any major index that hit a 30% gain in 2017.
2. Friday’s loss was 2.5%, the entire week was a 4.1% loss.
3. Unemployment was already low before the new tax law was approved. Now, we’re borrowing 1.5 Trillion to finance the 1% over the next 10 years. We will likely have interest rate hikes every quarter next year and wages at rising quickly.

The “picture” of the markets looks much different than last year. Inflation is likely with full employment and the government financing more growth.

Obama is/was not an F’ing Moron like Trump is. Trump will probably either be indicted or impeached, for collusion, conspiracy and/or obstruction of justice, a problem Obama never had. And this assumes Trump’s health remains OK, but taking cheeseburgers to bed and being obese is not a good thing for one’s health outlook.

You may not have agreed with Obama’s politics, but Obama has/had class, etiquette, brains, and didn’t insult everyone. Obama never slept with a porn star while married and never grabbed women in their private area. Obama never cheated students (Trump University) out of money or subcontractors who worked for him. Obama never called part of the globe a $hithole. Obama was well-read, Trump can’t finish a comic book. The list goes on and on.

Keep writing your fan fiction...
 
Keep drinking the kool aid

Keep writing your fan fiction...

Snappy comebacks fellas. :loser:

BTW, that Star Wars gif seems to definitely be :whip:a popular image on the Internets. Tom Brady and Patriots’ fans seem to use it a lot when attempting to fend off “the haters.” But I’m sure you guys don’t know much about that and will be out shopping with the wives tomorrow afternoon and evening.:whip::laugh:

As a matter of fact, tomorrow is shooting day for me. You know, those evil black “machine” guns??? There’s nothing like the smell of gun powder in the air, shortly followed by the musky smell of M-Pro 7 oil. Ten years of combat rescue experience here...

And I haven’t watched football in like 6-7 years. It’s boring.

Your "P.M." box is FULL! Empty the puppy! :bash: <table width="100%" class="tborder" id="smilietable" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="6"><tbody><tr valign="top"><td class="alt2"></td><td class="alt2"></td></tr></tbody></table>
 
Ten years of combat rescue experience here...

No combat experience here, but coincidentally, I ran a local "mud run" here yesterday morning where we get to climb and swing from various structures & heights and we get to go through mud, throw spears and crawl under barbed wire.

Thankfully, no one was shooting guns at us though. :laugh2:

That made me laugh.

Thank you, Mr Wohlstrom.
 
So, playing in the mud is how you served your country?

No, “playing in the mud” is exercise and fun.

And I was juxtaposing Justin’s heroic and valiant service in his combat rescue experience with my playing weekend warrior at an obstacle race. :thumbsup:

Unemployment at 17 year low. 288000 new jobs last month
2017/11/03/news/economy/october-jobs-report/index.html
DOW at record high
Let's piss and moan about Trump

Stock market takes the worst plunge in history...imagine what that will do to the employment gains. We have a president who lies every chance he gets...and is considering refusing to interview with the individual in charge of the ongoing investigation into Russian meddling into the last election.

Yeah, Al...let's ALL piss and moan about Trump!!!!!
