Seriously? No I don't and it will be interesting to see how comes up with the money to do all the things he say's he'll do, should be a fun 4 years...lol


I wrote it in pink to show I wasn't being serious...and I agree it will be a fun for years.


Very easy to envision Trump over the next four years spending most of his time putting out fires that he started himself.

It will be interesting to see if Trump will be able to continue the stock market rally that Obama started.

I think this is fantastic. I'm guessing since he is such a great businessman the tools he is talking about is how to manage budgets. The military is a colossal black hole of finances. Much like the rest of government. They don't need more money, they need to manage it better and be held accountable when they don't. I'm sure the military has made strides in being more efficient with less over the last few years, but some people just like to whine about not having enough money instead of making things work with what they have.

No, they haven't. See the link I posted above - the Pentagon refuses to tackle the problems they know full well exist.

Don't mistake the Pentagon with the military. The Dept of Defense is more than just the military, and the article you cited talks more about civilian and contractor administrative and bureaucratic waste than military waste. That's certainly not to say that the military side has everything wired, but it's worthwhile to understand the distinction.

Blondie gives me the creeps also. Trump's paid mouth piece reminds me of the typical drunk bar fly to be found in any C & W dive bar on any Saturday night. You know the type - with "fuck me" almost written across her forehead. Besides, it should be all about women's rights, not right wing women.

I thought this was worthy of quoting before you edited it.

Isn't she the chick that is always on CNN commentary defending the Donald at all cost, even against groping allegations, etc? If so, I rest my case. If not, its a case of mistaken identity.

Guess I don't have the secret handshake. Obviously I might have missed something. Care to explain? Would appreciate it.

Are you familiar with the terms stereotype and bigoted?

You don't need a secret handshake, you just need to not be a smug, self-righteous hypocrite.

You just tried to say it "should be about women's rights," whatever "it" is. But apparently only if they have the same opinion as you, and if not, then you resort to misogynistic slurs.

You're quite the ally, CG. A real white knight.

You might be over reacting. I didn't realize that bar-fly and blondie were mysoginistic slurs.

Eh. CG is all for women's rights as long as he agrees with the woman in question. He doesn't like Conway's politics, though, so his take on her is, "she looks like a slut to me."

Meh. I've always enjoyed her. But then again I like smart, quick-witted, strong women. I don't like what she says generally, but damn can she spin an arguement.

Back to the topic, isn't Trump trying to strongarm the builders of war machines through twitter to bring down costs? This would free billions, if I read the news stories correctly. With just a couple tweets he cost Boeing a couple billions didn't he?

Eh. He hasn't cost Boeing anything yet.

Probably a good time to pick up some Boeing Stock. Still up for 5 day and beyond, down over a percent today though.

Not really. There is a huge difference between tweeting and governing. Congress has a huge say in the matter.
