  1. You didn’t read the piece. Computers don’t have names and can’t be convicted.
  2. These are false comparisons. Back in the Olden days white people weren’t convicted for crimes against blacks period. Even not so olden. Through the sixties all white juries acquitted them. Blacks had virtually no protection under the law, particularly in the South. If voter fraud was as rampant as the vote restrictionists would have you believe there would be statistical correlation. Large numbers reveal patterns pretty clearly. The votes are not just national cycle votes. They include local city and school elections. A staggering number over 3 years for only 1137 infractions. And remember, we’re looking at Heritage Fund numbers, not some liberal think tank.
  3. Still, statistically negligent.
  4. If correlated with reduced accidents and fatalities, I’d say yes.
  5. Maybe not Trump himself, but something’s going on with people he surrounds himself with. Too many Russians too close. Trump plays to win and win only. Ends always justifies means.
  6. Or coincidental.
  7. [Hidden Content] 1137 cases of election fraud going back over three years. Millions and millions of votes cast. Is that statistically significant? If you read the report and check the states, most infractions involve absentee ballot fraud and illegal registrations, not in person voter fraud. Heritage Foundation definitely not a liberal think tank.
  8. Legitimate concern.
  9. I disagree. Demand is the prime mover. Infrastructure and labor force quality rank above taxes. [Hidden Content]
  10. We differ in opinion. A trillion dollar tax cut with no budget offset is no different than a trillion dollar deficit infrastructure project. Both pump up the economy with more printed money. Aside from that, he’s done nothing but endanger the environment, populate the White House with inexperienced lackeys, and attack the institutions that have helped make this country great. History will rank him near if not at the bottom.
  11. I doubt it. Tax burden is pretty far down the list on deciding if a product will sell or not.
  12. Market or Trump? He’ll take credit regardless. Good for Detroit is all I can say.
  13. He’s made himself look bad for years. I don’t rely on MSM to draw this conclusion. I’ve seen and heard him with his own mouth for years. He was no count before he was even dabbling in politics, and all I see is the same man now leading our country. I didn’t like him in the eighties, nineties, naughts, or now. He’s a petty blowhard who practices stream of consciousness oratory and knows only denial and insult when dealing with criticism. There was no MSM when Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution. You saying they went too far with the first amendment?
  14. Leaders he has either praised or believed over his own intelligence community: MBS, Bolsonaro, Dutarte, Putin, Un, Xi. Leaders he has either insulted, threatened, or ridiculed: Merkel, Macron, Trudeau, Moon Jae-in, May, Abe. Those lists speak for themselves. Oh, not to mention the police, military, and bikers who are with him if things get bad. Spoken like a true authoritarian leader.
  15. Response to “sig heil mein Fuhrer” remark posted by Hagar.
  16. He’s just riding the wave Obama started.
  17. Obama didn’t make it a law. Congress did. We’ve been having to contribute to a retirement plan since FDR was president. That legislation was passed by Congress as well. Congress refuses to fund Trump’s wall, even when his party controlled all three branches, he ignores it and declares a fake emergency, is admonished by Congress, and says screw you with a veto. Trumpland uber alles.
  18. What do you do with the ones already here?
  19. I do not blame Trump for the plant closing. It is a free market decision on GM’s part. My problem is that instead of acknowledging the market driven decision, he blames the very workers “only he” can help restore to dignity. It is a sick use of the bully pulpit. By the way, I notice no mention of any problem with Trump being your dictator.
  20. Is Trump just infallible in your world? I bet if we just had to have a dictator, he’d be the man. I saw a MAGA Trumper say just that. Who needs democracy when you got the only man who can fix things, right? Sick.
  21. Why does he attack the blue collar workers he vowed to defend? GM didn’t do what he said, so he blames the people he told not to sell their houses because he was bringing jobs to them.
  22. Trump, the self proclaimed savior of the working man blames the working man when the Lordstown,OH GM plant announces closing. How pathetic is that? GM is closing it because it isn’t selling the Cruze, which it made there, like it once did. I think that’s called the free market in action. Trump can’t claim a success, so he blames it on “Democrat UAW Local 1112 President David Green” per a Sunday tweet. Defend Trump again by attacking the Democrats, please. You can’t defend him by his actions.
  23. Here’s a summation of their law. [Hidden Content]14520-5/fulltext
  24. I don’t know the structure. You want it to be a death panel so bad. The article cited offers no insight as to how the system actually works.
