Washington has been putting up with this type of crap from Boeing for YEARS. It does not make you loved.

They can and they should. The Electoral College is meant to be a check, not a rubber stamp, and its purpose is to ensure that someone unfit isn’t elevated to the Presidency.
Nope, sorry. It would be one thing if everything, say, had been dandy up until the latest world recession, or the GOP had been following actual policy instead of trying to win over the Tea Partiers, or Reagan was ever seen for the genial sociopath he was rather than a saint
Because Dump will happily tell said companies that they get to pay no taxes if they keep half the jobs here,thus eviscerating the budgets of their towns/counties/cities.
One day a few weeks ago at work there was a man on the tv saying how Trump was everything your mother told you not to be. The immediate reply from one of my self-centered blue collar coworkers was “*snort* Yeah, son, don’t be rich!” The Prosperity Gospel is a hell of a drug, is what I’m sayin’. They truly associate…
You wrote “Zaphod Beeblebrox”; I read “Zap Brannigan”. And now I’m suffering from a persistent mental image of Trump in a velour minidress.
In my experience people like Bob don’t realize that SS and medicare are entitlements.
And the thing is, the electoral college can still keep him out of the White House.
It’s strange to even call it a “con” though - that suggests some subterfuge. Everything was so out in the open. Some of his supporters are upset that he’s abandoning “promises” he will never have the power to fulfill as president, but others are upset he’s doing the things he promised to do (and which will be in his…
the irony of that is both Flynn and Petreus were found guilty of mishandling classified documents.
And while they are chanting “lock her up”, they are perfectly fine with Trump appointing General Petraeus to a cabinet position even though he admitted guilty to passing classified information to his mistress.
If this was really a change election, why are there not swaths of incumbents losing? What did they think they were changing?
I heard an Obama supporter telling people to watch Obama in the next few weeks, because he’s taking this so cool and he must have something planned to save us from Trump or scuttle Trump’s Electoral College confirmation. And I’m thinking that there’s no way in hell Obama wants to save us after the way we’ve treated…
I feel like this is just the buyers remorse that sets in immediately after you buy something ridiculous.
He’s a parody of Zaphod Beeblebrox.
You guys are nicer than I am. I’m still in the no sympathy camp.
I’m surprised they have figured it out so quickly. I mean, if you were stupid enough not to be able to figure out he was lying to you before the election, how did you grow critical thinking skills in the last month?
In Obama’s defense, he’s actually kept more of his promises than most presidents and he has made multiple attempts to have GB closed.
Guy’s not perfect... but damn if he isn’t a damn sight more honest than usual. (for politicians)
So you “believe” it’s still open, therefore Obama was probably just conning us? And therefore both sides are basically the same? This kind of anti-factual reasoning is what gave us this national nightmare.
And even if he had. What would he do about it? The jobs he pretended he would save are mostly in mining or manufacturing and held by men.
