    Personal Insult Rule Violation! :eek:

    Next time you will be reported unless you Cease and Desist!

    The facts speak for themselves and no amount of dissembling and equivocation is going to alter them.

    The have been a great many indictments, guilty pleas and now criminal convictions in court of your beloved BLOTUS's campaign team. Now it is only a matter of time before the indictments are handed down for the rest of the criminal activities that occurred.

    Using credible nonpartisan sources PROVE that the current GDP was ONLY as a result of last December's taxcut by your feckless BLOTUS!

    And cutting lots of regulations, and creating lots of new jobs, and improving consumer and business confidence, and driving RINOs from Congress ... .

    I thus far have not reported your rules violations containing insults.

    So cease taunts and insults and we both won't have problems.

    We were speaking of Papadopoulos and not others. For each American just name their charges that show they colludded (not illegal by the way) with Russians. We need to see other charges. So far they missed Trump since he has from day one been the target of Mueller.

    Tax cuts do not need to be argued about. Even John Kennedy proved the cuts truly work. Trouble with Democrats is we are told to hell with the public, just hand to the Feds as much as the jerks in congress want and all is well. Well we saw all is not well during Obama.

    And another BIG FAIL strategy by the Socialist party. Trump is still the US President. If there is a leaker, which is looking less and less likely as each day goes by, then that person will be eventually found, forced to resign, and might just get charged with espionage too.

    Kavanaugh, a conservative judge is going to get confirmed to the SCOTUS, despite the Kook left circus show, and the Obama 2.0 clown act distraction.

    The economy will continue to improve, as Trump continues renegotiating trade deals according to the AMERICA FIRST doctrine, as he as already accomplished with Mexico, and soon with Canada. EU will be paying more of their fair share for NATO too.

    North Korea negotiations will continue, and things look promising, given the most recent NK military parade having NO missiles on display. Its an encouraging sign. And it did not require sending 400 million dollars on an unmarked plane in a secret side deal that Congress knew nothing about. Or making some deal that is not a deal like the Obama "Whatever the Iranian Radical Regime Wants" deal that has now fortunately been nullified by President Trump.

    The 2018 elections, look favorable to a continuation of the Trump Wave of Optimism drowning out the Left Socialist "America Sux" pessimism.

    And Alex Jones is STILL GOING STRONG!!. You cannot censor AMERICAN patriots. Apple and Google sell out the American people to serve their new Communist Chinese globalist master, at their peril. Their vision of a totalitarian Orwellian state imposed on USA, will FAIL!!

    HIP HIP HURRAY FOR USA!!. AMERICA FIRST! LETS VOTE TO KEEP AMERICA GREAT!! KEEP THE FREEDOM WAVE GOING IN 2018!!!

    Well said by SkullKrusher. I believe the so called Blue Wave is a myth coming from the Democrat dominated media.

    Small point. The NYT is not obligated to provide "equal time" to dissenting opinions to the opinion they are publishing on their OP/ED page. That ain't how its done. Of course there is nothing preventing the WH from submitting their "rebuttal" after the fact, but it seems they chose outright denials and ad homs, instead.

    A huge part of the problem today is the blurring of distinct lines that used to exist between actual journalism and opinion publishing.

    For instance just take a look at FOX CABLE NEWS. Its content is separated into NEWS and Entertainment. With fake journalists offering up biased opinion masquerading as news. Shep Smith et.al. who are part of the real journalistic arm of FOX are on a completely different plane with an entirely different set of ethics, principles and processes than Hannity or Carlson, and yet the entertainment people are presented in the same style as the journalists. Worse the audiences believe that the opinions they are being fed is actual reportage.

    Government is necessary and evil. Democrats thinks it's good.
    RP/DP insiders know it is evil, but they really like that part.

    Sweet! And I agree getting rid of winner take all would give people's individual votes more impact meaning and importance.
    I can't remember if you've voted in any of the Ranked Votes so far or not, but just in case you haven't, here's a link
    to a list of all the past Ranked Votes that have taken place on this site and their results.
    http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/ranked-vote-discussion-thread.531007/

    There's also one currently going on for immigration... though, I'd say that topic is a bit of a tough one to jump into.
    Then again, we just wrapped up a Ranked Vote on abortion recently which, while having significantly fewer options
    I also thought would have been a tough one, but it ended up good in the end imo and wasn't really all that bad.
    Anyways, here's the link to the immigration vote if you're interested...

    I am not a person that rejects government at all. A decent government can do a lot of good.

    But this government has many layers of armed men telling us they come for us from Government.

    They don't have to jail you to realize that they attack others, it is wrong.

    Democrats will whine all week over so called injustice to illegal aliens and convicted jailed criminals. But the political crimes done by Democrats plus the lousy laws on the books crafted by Democrats are just fine with Democrats.

    I often explain Dodd Frank is a lousy Democrat law. Per Democrats it is fine. But they do not have the law on them as others do over the law. It should be outlawed by the Supreme court.

    No, I do not mean crimes due to Dodd Frank, I mean the law as applied itself. These laws are creeping laws. They lead directly to laws that are even worse.

    Take gun laws. Those come to us from Democrats. Brady was cooperated with by Republicans since they do not want our presidents shot at. A law to protect the president is not objectionable by me. But then it got worse and worse. It targeted excellent citizens who would not harm humans.

    My Brokers license in CA covered me also doing home loans. CA rules are very strict. I really did not object to them. But Dodd Frank really is an extreme law. A terrible law. So we must have dual licenses. State licenses for home loans but also Federal license for home loans. Double the law is not doubling the pleasure. We no doubt got hit with very strict laws and of course nailed by Democrats.

    Government is inherently "indecent" and evil. That is why its power has to be checked and balanced.
    In an emergency government can serve the collective good, but government is always evolving to exploit the people for the benefit of a ruling political class.

    Anti-Trump Republicans will be vulnerable, but many of them have decided not to run.
    The DP is unable to offer any credible positive reason to vote for them. A blue wave is unlikely.

    Since 1933 that ruling class with some changes to a republican president, is run by Democrats. And they love the evil government.

    DP/RP pols, for the most part, embrace Big Government.

    “In recent years, despite thousands of bills introduced into Congress every year, only a small percentage (approximately 5%) become law. Of course, what matters for laws is quality not quantity. But why would legislators bother to introduce so many hopeless bills? What if they are not even designed to pass? What if they are instead designed to make money? The cold harsh reality in Washington is this: the very conditions that are so maddening for most Americans —gridlock, problems being ignored, hyper partisanship — are the very conditions that are most lucrative for the Permanent Political Class. Washington may not be working for citizens, but it's working quite well for members of the Permanent Political Class who profit handsomely.” EXTORTION, "How Politicians Extract Your money, BuyVotes, And Line Their Own Pockets, Peter Schweizer, HMO, NY, NY, 2013, p. 7,8.

    I have read some reviews. But to whet the apetite, let's hear what the author has to say. He opens up on the Obama administration.

    Have read Schweizer's books. His conclusions are extensively documented, and are similar Mark Leibovich's first hand account of the corrupt bipartisan ruling political class.

    “While so much of the nation has despised Washington, a gold rush has enthralled the place. It has, in recent years, become a crucible of easy wealth, fame, forgiveness, and next acts. Punditry has replaced reporting as journalism's highest calling…” Mark Leibovich, This Town, Penguin Books, 2013, p. 8.

    Chi-Coms during the cold winter months love Trump's coal and so do Asians industries.

    American coal is el mucho superior to other coals.

    The United States exported 97.0 million short tons (MMst) of coal in 2017, a 61% (36.7 MMst) increase from the 2016 level. Exports to Asia more than doubled from 15.7 MMst in 2016 to 32.8 MMst in 2017, although Europe continues to be the largest recipient of U.S. coal exports.

    "U.S. coal exports increased by 61% in 2017 as exports to Asia more than doubled."

    The U.S. has a 360-year supply of coal to bolster our expanding export market. China (65%) and India (75%) are hugely dependent upon coal-based electricity, which will be needed in even bigger quantities to lift their low Human Development Index closer to those in the West, where universal electricity access has more people living better and longer.

    Can you really blame them? "The Statistical Connection Between Electricity and Human Development."
