  Trumpers: “Hey, my 401K is doing GREAT!!”

  That’s the problem, they can’t see beyond their noses. Or...they simply don’t WANT to see that far.

  Bottom line...these tax cuts are a temporary “feel-good” sugar rush. Meanwhile, the deficit is soaring out of control, and any economic stabilizers will be dried up by the next recession. This, combined with big-government, Ralph Nader style protectionism and tariffs on imports, against economic & strategic ALLIES!?! What we’re seeing is NOT conservatism. Fiscal conservatism implies limited government, disciplined SPENDING, and not dictating who trades with who. Think of all the Boeing 737s and 787s sold to overseas airlines...soon coming to a screeching halt. You like your Bimmer? Good luck affording parts for it when it goes in the shop.

  All the Republicans I voted for since the 1980s were for strong defense, trade with Allies and standing up to tyrannical dictators, NOT slapping them on the back and saying how great they are. You sure as f*ck wouldn’t have caught Reagan saluting a godammed North Korean General, while telling Japan and Western Europe to piss off. Hell, why did we do the Marshall Plan?

  You Trumptards are all being played, just like the “PIMI” J-dubs out there (you know the ones).

  It ahould read MCGA, or MRGA...C being China, and R being Russia. Look no further than Trump’s business dealings with these countries, as well as his unwillingness to release his tax returns, as every other president in my lifetime has done.

  Here, read this. These are HIS WORDS on China. No spin:

  “President Xi of China, and I, are working together to give massive Chinese phone company, ZTE, a way to get back into business, fast. Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!”—-Donald J Trump

  Awwww, poor CHINA!!! We need to SAVE their JOBS!! 😢 Boo hoo.

  ....oh, and now I’m a member of the “cult left,” at that. An amusing, as well as idiotic characterization. LMFAO. 😂😂😂

  @ “Jahalepeno”

  All the cult of the left has is petty insults and nit picking at grammar on an Internet forum.

  Make snap judgements much?

  I correct your grammar, and suggest you’d be a good fit on the Trump team (it’s true I don’t care for him), and NOW I’m suddenly a LEFTIST!! Let’s see...

  1992: I registered as a Republican and voted for Bush Sr.

  1996: I supported Bob Dole (you might see a pattern here already...I like war vets, not draft dodgers).

  Registered as an Indepenent

  2000: McCain

  2004: Kerry

  2008: McCain

  2012: I backed Jon Huntsman (former Reagan staff member who hates Russian commies as much as I do).

  2016: I backed John Kasich

  Yeah, I guess I’m a commie, Russia-loving LEFTIST alright!! 🙄

  So is that where we’ve come to? Don’t support Trump, and suddenly get LABELLED as a member of the Oliver Stone LEFT? Wow, just WOW!!

  I can’t help but think of how, among JWs, there is such a huge DEMAND placed on them, to accept all doctrine 100%, without question or cristicism, or else be LABELLED as an APOSTATE. How ironic is that?

  As Trump would say, “SAD!!!”

  If I was Trump, I would open every thing up for all to see!! Then fire ever bastard involved in the lie's!!!

  It’s “every,” and “lies,” with no apostrophe needed. Also, you probably meant “everything,” and not “every thing.”

  No, you’re not Trump. However, I’m willing to bet he’d hire you.

  those of us here wasting our time trying to show who trump really is .... it's like trying to reason with all those still in the organization.

  they have found a new person to fill their heads with lies and control they way they think.

  I just happen to see now a great emergence (especially since Hillary lost) of a totalitarian left,

  Please codify THAT?

  I’m not exactly a Hillary fan either, but how do you tie her LOSS to a “great emergence of totalitarianism from the left?” The executive branch=Republican President. The House AND Senate=Republican majority. The Judicial is Ideologically split, for the most part. I just fail to see specifically HOW they can be regarded as “totalitarian,” even if they wanted to. They don’t really control anything. Please enlighten.

  Ah, the inevitable plucking of examples from 400 years ago "what about when they conquered America and killed the Aztecs?!?" See, Christians are exactly the sa

  @Simon. If you’re referring to MY example of Catholics vs Aztecs, I absolutely did NOT say that it makes modern day CHRISTIANS equal to ISIS, or Al Queda, or Hamas, or Al Shabab. There IS another poster on this thread making such a charge, but it ain’t me. Not by a country mile. There are some deranged “Christians” out there, but we don’t see them going from house-to-house, decapitating men in front of their wives, then raping the women in front of her kids, as ISIS has done in recent years. I would never, in a BILLION years say that present-day “radical Christians” are EQUAL to radical Islamists.

  I meant to post this as well. A potential silver lining, and in my opinion, the main reason we are seeing the reforms (however small) that ARE actually taking place in Saudi. It’s not because they are following strong US leadership (that ended with Reagan, I’m afraid). Rather, it’s because they’re going broke & actually have NO CHOICE in the matter. Ha!

  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/02/11/saudi-arabia-may-go-broke-before-the-us-oil-industry-buckles

  Also, this book:

  emoirs of a Saudi Pilot: In the Beautiful State of Alabama (Usa) By Al Hassan Ali Al Neami

  . I actually met the man while in Riyadh. Pretty cool guy. Like a lot of Saudis who have ventured out of country, he knew what a backwards system his country had. But, he has to go through the motions...mandatory prayer 5 times a day, or ELSE get arrested by the Muttawa (religious police). I honestly think that roughly HALF, if not more of the Saudi populace are what you former JWs would call “PIMO.”
