POTUS 45.08: Suckers

This is enough to make you cry... What has become of this country? If someone can find a comparable level of lying by another president in his first term let alone his first 100 days, I'm all ears... Again, I say my hope is that all of the republicans in congress who are allowing this to happen can rot in Hell for eternity.

Sigh. And to think there's likely no one to come on here and point out to us how obama was just as bad. They've given up because it's impossible

He has a point. The bureaucracy is bloated, and the only way you're ever going to get them under control is to cut the feeding tube of cash. We'll see if this dude throws as big of a fit as the last one...
Like the bloated EPA?

Currently, there are 1337 Superfund sites across the country, with additional sites going through the process to be added to the list.[21] Roughly 11 million people and between three to four million children live within a mile of a Superfund site.[22] Communities should not expect President Trump’s proposed cuts to delay the cleanup of Superfund sites equally, however. Superfund “orphan” sites – sites where no responsible parties can be identified or are solvent – will be the most affected by the budget cuts. In 2006, Office of Inspector General found that responsible parties fund 70% of all completed remedial actions.[23] The further depletion of Superfund funding severely limits the likelihood of remediation for orphan sites, which raises serious environmental justice concerns, as these sites tend to be in poorer, minority communities. --- https://gelr.org/2017/04/08/trump-budget-cuts-signal-increased-delays-to-superfund-site-cleanups/

I'm sure that's why he wants to spend a gazillion dollars on a 1,900 mile monument to his ego and throw away another gazillion on tax cuts to the 1%ers. You are our favorite slow learner here, flaggy, but for your own good . . .

Looks like the Conservative Poutrage of the Day is whining about 'classless' Colbert calling Trump's mouth, "Vladmir Putin's cock-holster". Never mind that it was an insult comedy bit done in response to Trump's uber-lame insult to John Dickerson, calling his show "De-face the Nation".

And the childish cutting of Dickerson's interview.

I'd be willing to bet that a large chunk of the bureaucracy is due to the utter fear of making a mistake and wasting money.

Which means very thorough procedures have to be thought up and followed to the letter of the law.

Government has actual work to do- make sure that our rights are not violated by other people- which is the source of every decent regulation on the books. EPA rules prevent you from getting sick or dying due to others pollution. DOD is there to protect you from outside people, DOT is there to make sure you can travel from A to B safely and efficiently, etc etc.

Cutting funding does not at all mean anything is going to be more efficient- it means that it will be easier to bypass the rules to get your stuff done, at the increased risk of harming someone else.

We don't need that.

I don't want to see huge profits generated by polluting companies, or prisons, or teaching our public, or making toll roads, or cheating the stock market....

I could go on.

YOUR fear of those groups wasting money is what causes bureaucracy. And the funny thing is that few hold private companies to the same standards at all. Even if you own stock.
 
Re: POTUS 45.08: Suckers

The Republicans were ready to blame any shutdowns on the Democrats, before Trump proudly took credit for any shutdowns under his administration. Probably a lot of facepalms going on on Capitol Hill.
 
Re: POTUS 45.08: Suckers

Cut the MIC by 90% and get back to me.

Until then it's just "welfare for the rich, good; welfare for the poor, oh the horror!" :rolleyes:

MIC? What probably incredible obvious thing am I missing?
 
Re: POTUS 45.08: Suckers

Hillary's excuse making tour is quite the annoyance.

I get that she's admitting her own faults as well, but the idea of her losing the election because of misogyny or Russia or all the free advertising given to Trump by EVERY outlet needs to stop. Put in didn't tell Hillary to disappear from the public eye after the conventions, amongst her many other faults.

If it's an annoyance, it's a good thing. Most particularly for any involvement from Russia. We've got to get to the bottom of that.

The fact that Wikilinks thought it was a good idea to take a side for the sake of "exposure"- talk about BS. Had they exposed the same kind of crap from the R side (which I fully expect), at the same time, that would be one thing. But for that punk to just expose Democrat emails- sure, we need to have some international dude telling US what to think.

Funny how so many voting for don were doing it to NOT be globalist. Talk about ironic.
 
Re: POTUS 45.08: Suckers

the irony is that there hasn't been an election on the face of the earth in the past 250yrs that the usa hasn't tried to influence. so big deal. what's good for the goose......

True.

But when the leading country trying to influence you is the one that has been a major foe of ours for most of 100 years, it should get closer attention.

And when anti-globalists take advice from Russia, you do have to doubletake on what the advice is that they are offering.

I want her to go away. She fumbled a 10 yard game winning touchdown on the goal line through the back of the end zone.

So just broom her issues under the rug? Including the self inflicted ones?

Her activism doesn't count anymore?

Considering she isnt doing it for any other reason than ego she can shut up and go away for a while.
