Something I just realized: Trump was 22 when Nixon became President. Nixon might actually be his primary image of what a President is. barfo
Making America Great Again.... Trump vineyard seeks Labor Department approval to hire foreign workers Federal ethics experts for former Democratic and Republican administrations warned Thursday that President-elect Donald Trump is creating a major conflict of interest by allowing his Virginia vineyard to seek special temporary visas for foreign workers. Trump, who is president of the Charlottesville vineyard that applied this month for H2 visas for six foreign workers, will soon run the U.S. government, which determines whether to grant those visas. “This is a powerful example of why Donald Trump needs to make a definitive break, not just with his operational interests but his ownership interests, by appointing an independent trustee to liquidate all that,” said Norm Eisen, a visiting fellow at the Brookings Institution who was chief White House ethics lawyer for President Obama from 2009 to 2011.
Fucking idiots... Yeah he's an expert alright.. Trump’s voter fraud expert is registered in three states SAN FRANCISCO — A man who President Donald Trump has promoted as an authority on voter fraud was registered to vote in multiple states during the 2016 presidential election, the Associated Press has learned. Gregg Phillips, whose unsubstantiated claim that the election was marred by 3 million illegal votes was tweeted by the president, was listed on the rolls in Alabama, Texas and Mississippi, according to voting records and election officials in those states. He voted only in Alabama in November, records show. In a post earlier this month, Phillips described ‘‘an amazing effort’’ by volunteers tied to True the Vote, an organization whose board he sits on, who he said found ‘‘thousands of duplicate records and registrations of dead people.’’ Trump has made an issue of people who are registered to vote in more than one state, using it as one of the bedrocks of his overall contention that voter fraud is rampant in the U.S. and that voting by 3 to 5 million immigrants illegally in the country cost him the popular vote in November. The AP found that Phillips was registered in Alabama and Texas under the name Gregg Allen Phillips, with the identical Social Security number. Mississippi records list him under the name Gregg A. Phillips, and that record includes the final four digits of Phillips’ Social Security number, his correct date of birth and a prior address matching one once attached to Gregg Allen Phillips. He has lived in all three states.
Jose sells avacados for $6, nobody buys them. They buy California avacados instead for $5.75 (or less). Or they buy some other produce grown in the US.
Jose quits bringing his avocados to the United States. There is a mass shortage of avocados. Guacamole becomes the new currency. It's more valuable than gold. In fact there is an Avocado Rush and everyone moves to California to try and get rich growing avocados. Winning.
I'm fine with no avacados. Mexican citizens revolt against their government because their avacados rot. If people are willing to pay the $6 for avacados, Jose should have upped his price to that before any tariff put on Mexican imports.
I wonder how long it's going to be before those who voted for Trump end up apologizing to the rest of us? Seems like it's moving faster than we may have anticipated, but then again, I am a liberal Jew and Trump makes me sick to my stomach, so I may not be the best judge.
They're never going to apologize. They're just going to go quiet when their kids ask them who the voted for back when the world was not a smoking ruin.
