    :clap::clap:

    But Kim Jong Un isn’t suicidal; his only ideology is survival. He isn’t bluffing about being a nuclear threat, but he is bluffing about throwing the first punch. He won’t. Not against our allies, not against us. But if we strike first? He might see no recourse but to strike back. Not only do crazy men do crazy things, desperate men do desperate things.


    indeed blowing up N. Korea in lieu of counter-punching would be a big mistake, no one wins either way..... the people of N. Korea have to take out the little dicktater, and that doesn't look like it's going to happen....

    ^^^^^....
    love the reference to 'Uncle Rico'- a bit of comic relief....



    At issue for Trump is that he continues to seem more interested in how he won the office than what he will do with the office. An occasional reminder of a time when you won is great. But Trump is bordering on Uncle Rico (of "Napoleon Dynamite") territory here.

    "Back in '82 I used to be able to throw a pigskin a quarter mile," Uncle Rico recalls. "If coach would have put me in fourth quarter we would have been state champions....no doubt in my mind."

    The point is: Dwelling too much in the past makes you a prisoner of the past. Trump won a historic upset. No question. But, now he's president. So, how he got elected -- and how no one called it -- is now less relevant than what he plans to do in the office.

    Trumpet wants to suppress every bit of this, just like he's hidden his tax returns from the public, even tho' the public knows He's made his living by feeding off of taxpayers..,

    Time for every working class man and woman to become a llc and work as a sub contractor so you two can pay only 15% incomr tax and get away with taking personal expenses as business expenses....

    All new yorkers will get fucked hard aince he will take away state income tax and real estate taxes away from being an itemized deduction

    this govt is for the rich, and once again gains at the expense of the working class. Ran by a bunch of frauds, or ship of fools...screwing the heart and soul of a once great nation; never to be the same again, we've been sold down the river- !

    ...that's spot on, Al...dropping corporate tax from 35% to 15% is a joke and a slap in the face to John Q. Public.
