Message 1838582 - Posted: 29 Dec 2016, 17:54:36 UTC - in response to Message 1838573.  

Trump Tower is much more presidential than the white house.

I expect the secret service will get an "at cost" lease. ...


Good thing costs are reasonable at Trump tower. And certainly, an ode to lavish life and exorbitant spending- how presidential indeed.

At cost?! Remember Trump had to divest. The new manager owes the blind trust a fiduciary duty to gouge the US taxpayer!

If you ask me, he should leave the white house vacant for the next 8 years. Just lock it up, close all the windows and doors, disconnect utilities and maybe cover some of the historical items in there with blankets for preservation.


If it costs less to run the Trump towers than the White House, please proceed to shut down the White House, Donald.
We, as in 'the taxpayers' do not need to pay to keep it open just for publicity, if there is no other reason to.

So get used to him.

Mark, if his own party doesn't impeach him on the emoluments clause in the constitution because they can't control him.

Yes, all the (former) blue-collar working-class people that believed him when he said he would 'bring back millions of jobs to the USA'.

Don't blame me, I voted for Johnson(L) in 2016.

Truth is dangerous... especially when it challenges those in power.

Is it a conspiracy to believe kicking out diplomats is usually how wars begin?

Yes. Now if you said assassinating there would be some basis in fact for that.

Wiki says:
TheBlaze is a multiplatform news and entertainment network available on television, radio and the Internet founded by conservative talk radio personality and entrepreneur Glenn Beck.

I consider the source, Beck has a long history of post truth. A partisan liar is not trust worthy
Guy you are wasting your time posting your political views, you could make a lot of money writing fantasy novels, you seem to have a great aptitude for it.

For example: In California, there's a bill that's been filed to make flat bed sheets illegal. [in hotels only]

Flat bed sheets illegal?

Makes as much sense as banning the short handled hoe.

Hey at least California is trying to help business keep down the cost of their worker's compensation insurance policies. What is Trump doing?

'pizzagate'? Really Guy?? come on... I expect more from you.


On the subject of the sanctions. It's retaliation for another country's participation in illegal actions.. I won't begin to argue with you whether or not Russia did any hacking, because I already know some people's tendencies to ignore fact.

Also I think that even if the emails hadn't been leaked the results wouldn't have been any different, sadly I will admit that. BUT it doesn't mean that we shouldn't take retaliatory measures against someone who has been found to do something illegal..

..Anyways don't fret!! Soon as Trumpler takes over he will do everything in his power to restore relations with Russia, while destroying relations with many others.

Mark, if his own party doesn't impeach him on the emoluments clause in the constitution because they can't control him.

FACT 1: It's the #NeverTrump who are living in a Fantasy World.
Fun to read their silliness and descent into total irrelevance.
FACT 2: Like it, or not. Trump will be President for 4 years. Republicans will control The White House, the Supreme Court, the Senate, the House of Representatives, most State Governorships, and most State Legislatures. Case closed.

Houston, we got a problem:)

There is a proposition quietly working its way onto the voting agenda in California. Put forth by Californians working towards independence for their state, the petition argues that California should establish diplomatic relations with world nations.
In the petition, they propose that California (apart from the U.S.) recognize the 193 United Nations member states. However, in addition to these, they also urge recognition of and establishing diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Hawaii and the Republic of Texas, giving these nations the "full extent of diplomatic protocol to which they are entitled."
Well, this is certainly welcome news to all who believe that Texas ought to be its own country again! We here at the Texas Nationalist Movement applaud every peaceful effort, both cultural and political, that reinforces the idea of Texas independence in the minds of Texians. This proposal, if passed, would be amazing.
TNM wishes our friends in California and Hawaii every success in their independence efforts. Additionally, we are grateful to have our own independence efforts in Texas recognized and encouraged through the California proposition.
