Members slick jones Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 What policies? He's been backpedalling on everything he said to get in there. Even if he has policies in place by then, he's not officially in charge until January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Roman Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 A year? they'll start on Jan. 20th screwing everything up. how anyone who has a at least 1 brain cell working thinks republicans will fix what they screwed up when Bush was in office is just not there. at. all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms. Quartermaine Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 Please register in order to view this content I totally think he wants to run again and beat Trump. And I don't like the implication that Hillary's platform was "vote for me, I'm a woman." That was part of it for sure, and it makes sense after it gave her a boost in 2008 when she first tried to leave her gender out of it, but he is acting like that was all she did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 This is really the scariest part of it all to me. This is about the worst time for climate change deniers to be in charge. It's entirely possible that they are going to push us past he point of no return. It also sounds like he is pushing for Elizabeth Warren maybe? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 There is no denying that the Trump favored industries have seen their stocks rise, and I imagine if he keeps his adminstration halfway sane everyone else on wall street will be soothed and stocks might even hit 20,000. What makes me laugh though is Obama took wall street from 8000 to 18000 and no republican wants to admit that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) True but it will take about a year for the bottom to fall out. Things will go along okay for a while then collapse entirely. I just hope it's right before the midterms. He's pushing for himself and using Warren as a prop to try and prove he's not a privileged, sexist jerk.

Members JaneAusten Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 Well this might be the first concrete thing at this point that could be used to impeach. Along with the courting foreign diplomats for the hotel in Washington but I am fuzzy on what the rules are prior to taking the oath and after. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted November 21, 2016 Members Share Posted November 21, 2016 From what I understand there really aren't any rules. the mere appearance smacks of collusion, and can be used by a republican congress to get him out...but, they will probably wait and let the list and charges pile up. he'll spend more time refuting and lying than actually governing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 22, 2016 Members Share Posted November 22, 2016 Well, it was highly publicized in several Indian papers that the businessman from the Pune district were bragging about Pune now having an open line to the President of the United States! The real estate industry in India has a lot of problems with corruption. Some real estate/construction companies have been known to take deposits from prospective tenants and use it to build new buildings without finishing the first! And those who paid are left waiting for their apartments/retail space to be completed, which can drag on for years! If there is any hint of this happening with any of the buildings being built that are associated with Trump, it won't be good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms. Quartermaine Posted November 22, 2016 Members Share Posted November 22, 2016 I also think he's pushing for himself. And I thought Hillary had all of that in her platform... Wasn't it the most progressive Democratic platform in history? Did people not buy it coming from Hillary? I read she and Bernie voted 93% of the same in the Senate, so I think she's more progressive than people might think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 22, 2016 Members Share Posted November 22, 2016 (edited) Trump confronts the media. If Bernie thinks the way forward is to demean Hillary's candidacy publicly and dismiss 'identity politics' (a.k.a. 'issues not relevant to the older, financially secure white progressive') he and the rest of the far left have even more learning to do than the rest of us.
