When discussing Republicans with a Great American Independent, you lose the discussion by devolving instantly to “yea but muh Democrats!”
this is his usual negative crap
It's Wrestling and Drama Build Up
I think he's working with Congress, and especially Cruz, to threaten or actually regulate Social Media into better behavior, btw.
More whataboutisms
I would love to be wrong about Trump, but we will just have to wait and see. I think many people project their ideals onto politicians they voted for, but we should all be critical towards them.
I see him as a Medici or Machiavelli.
What is the value in harping on Democrats 24/7 while giving Republicans a pass?
Most importantly, he’s a deadbeat.
Just plain bad for business
Not really. In the past couple of days, we've been hearing that every single possible positive economic chart is showing a boom, except one, that has been shitty for decades, and somehow that's the one that proves Trump sucked. Even though it sucked for almost all of Obama's presidency except a few quarters.
Building a multi-billion dollar organization with over 22,000 employees and having business enterprises all over the world, make him a TRUE deadbeat.
How many employees do you have?
it doesn’t make any sense to harp on the 2016 Democrats. They lost, get over it

Exactly. So why the whole #Resist movement from the Democrats/left?
It seems like they have yet to agree to the "get over it" part, and have dedicated themselves to making things as difficult for Americans as possible instead of working with the party in power.

even so his wealth is LESS than what it would have been had he simply put his inheritance in an S&P 500 fund, I call that an idiot.
Please post those charts that show a boom. I'm assuming there are multiple ones or else it wouldn't be plural.
Hmm. I'd like to see the analysis you did to come to this conclusion. Can you show ANY data/proof that what you just said was true?
I posted multiple ones the other day. Why are you ignoring them?
Well, when this supposed expert businessman was left hundreds of millions of $$ from Daddy, proceeded to bankrupt multiple companies and would have been personally bankrupt if it wasn't for Daddy, his most successful and rewarding role was a reality TV star, and even so his wealth is LESS than what it would have been had he simply put his inheritance in an S&P 500 fund, I call that an idiot.
and were back to the S&P crap again... what about the jobs he produced for over 22,000 people plus all the support compains that supply his businesses...
MrMagic saysI posted multiple ones the other day. Why are you ignoring them?
No, you didn't. The charts you posted didn't show a boom when Trump was elected at all.
Really??
The whole discussion about comparing Obama to Trump? Short memory or in need of trolling dollars?

Oh Joey, you're just trolling again..
He took Millions and turned them into BILLIONS..
He filed bankruptcy on 4 businesses out of over 500 he's involved in.
and were back to the S&P crap again... what about the jobs he produced for over 22,000 people plus all the support companies that supply his businesses...
We know who the idiots are...
Although these characteristics are unbecoming, you can’t seriously expect these to be enough for a conservative to flip? Flip to what?
As long as he’s for lowering taxes, pro 2nd amendment, tough on immigration, against bs socialist policy, then conservatives will support.
Don’t act so surprised folks. It matters little that he’s an asshole, matters little that he’s rude and offensive.

I'll put the final nail in that Liberal circle-jerk story that keeps getting recycled...
Now, take that narrative and and factor in all the 401K accounts of the 22,000 employees that Trump has in his organization. What's the total wealth of that combination with the market gains for all those employees in all their 401K, IRA accounts and private investment accounts?
Remember, Rachel Maddow isn't the best source for accurate Trump bashing information.

When someone buys a business like the Dorado golf course they don't "produce" jobs. The business is up and running already plus all the support companies were already supplying. The Grand Hyatt was the old Commodore Hotel remodeled. The jobs were already there. Etc., Etc., Etc..
No no. You have to reinvest 100% of your after tax dividends and sleep under a park bench. Who cares about driving a Ferrari while fucking Ms. Victoria's secret cover model? That's for people who don't know how to invest properly. You know, dumb ass multi-billionaires.

That is assuming Trump is anywhere near as wealthy as he claims. Fortune, Bloomburg, TIme, and lot's of other very creditable sources seriously doubt it. Most peg Trump at 2.5-3 billion. Which is half of what simply putting his inherited wealth into an index fund would have produced. He would have had 3 billion and had 3 billion to buy ferraris while fucking Ms. Victoria's Secret cover model.
Do you have some inside source of information that you can share that confirms Trump's real wealth is anywhere near what trump claims?
If Trump had documentable access to half of what he claims, banks would have been in line to loan him whatever he needed to right his casinos after they went down - just for his signature.
Jamie Dimon
Except, there were no Index funds back then.
OK--if Trump had invested passively in stocks and earned the same returns as the overall market.

Already been up by myself and other many times.
Stock market near all time highs
Unemployment at lows not seen since 1969 (except once in 2000)
Record unemployment for Minorities
Lowest Youth unemployment in half a century
GDP growth over 4% not coming out of a recession.
Who besides Leon thinks the economy isn't doing well right now?

As long as he fights for conservative policy and continues to hit liberals on the chin like no president ever has, he will not lose support.
