The good thing about this new travel ban getting struck down, by the time this all has been litigated the 90 days he was requesting will have passed and there won't be a need for any more bans.

It's seriously getting close to time to contemplate forceful removal of Trump.

Taking food aid away from the poor is a fun way for the administration to observe Irish-American heritage month.

That Chicago Tribune article on NK mentions a strategic missile defense system as a possible response. I can't believe we'd go through that **** again.

Good plan!

Typical Trump--hiring a cum salesman instead of an intelligence analyst.

Sushy, I have a question for you.

Does it alarm you that you have a higher threshold of proof needed here than things from Trump's mouth?

Like, here you are asking for "Proof, conclusive evidence." Yet the orange messiah just blurts out things like "Obama is a Muslim from Kenya", "Wire tapps!", "That Mexican judge is biased!" with nary a **** given.

Why are you demanding proof from a poker internet board but don't give the slightest **** about King Trump's ramblings?

Just curious...

that's home for me. ~5500 people, walmart closes at 9/isn't a supercenter, didn't get a McDonald's until the late 90s.

Guys, Trump is a genius. We go to war vs NK, lose 75% of our workforce but the remaining all have jobs! 100% employment!
03-17-2017 , 12:16 AM
Heck, cut the world population by 75% and who cares about global warming or silly stuff like that?

According to Sushi, Sessions didn't lie at his confirmation hearings either. He has a special talent for self-delusion, or something.

His proposed cuts to education are the most horrifying thing I've seen so far. The nuke stuff, meh. Between us, japan, and china not being suicidal we have the capability to shoot down and thwart any potential attack on us. South korea though, I'd be ****ting my pants if I lived there.

I mean, it's probably not a good idea to piss off a guy willing to use anti aircraft weapons to kill family members because they didn't like the color of his tie. That's just me though.

Another guy you wouldn't want to anger is the leader of North Korea.

As the mushroom cloud goes up - a few million South Koreans are going to shake their fists at Mark Burnett for not releasing the Apprentice outtakes.

We probably should be having a societal debate on why are we paying for some of these gov't programs that trump wants to cut but the part where it's all seemingly going to either rich people, trump himself, blow someone up/go to war makes it seem silly to bother. It does bother me the most common defense for some of these tend to be a garbage argument for it--that it only costs X in a big budget. It's simple to me--if it's not worth it, we shouldn't be paying for it and it should be cut. It's a shame that anytime they do it though they just take that waste of $ and waste it somewhere else instead of something useful but that's politics.

I'm not talking about the stuff people overwhelmingly support; many of these most people couldn't tell you what they do.
