Freedom to pollute is only one aspect that makes China our number one manufacturer for the forseeable future. Ironically, China now suffers the consequences of said pollution. Wages are the number one issue, and you simply cannot match $10/day labor we see overseas.
That's coal not ozone. China can do what it wants to -Im not paying for them to pollute with the Paris accords
There is nothing 'bogus' about Russia's influence on the election. As much as he'd like to turn the page on a number of tactics he employed during the election....that's not how this works. Clinton started with a bogus real estate investigation, and ended up with spooge on an intern's dress.
excatly the danger of a special prosecutor. They are extra-Constitutional.
(Q.)What began w/ "Russian collusion" is now what? (A.) Anywhere Meuller wants to fish.
I condemned Ken Star for this and now I condemn Meuller - did you do the same? looks like no
'Maybe' getting good jobs from flight? That's the number one issue. You will never do that without painful tariffs. Is that what you recommend?
NAFTA talks are underway between US/Canada/Mexico
Sorry....when you start with your conspiracy rhetoric, you lose all credibility. 'The resistance' is the entire country, save for a few rednecks or the casual political demographic. trump began and ended his campaign attacking both sides, and every aspect of govt. Many thought he'd turn around and attempt to mend fences after the election. He's too stupid to realize that he can't take on the entire world with his Jerry Springer rhetoric.
#NeverTrump, fake news, and Democrats is the resistance. Most Americans still want DC to function.
(silly fools that they are)
Deep State isn't a conspiracy theory like Truthers.
It's unelected bureaucrats combined with media purposeful leaking to de-rail a Constitutional election.
Russiaphobia collusion is what happens as a result.
You also have Obama era WH leakers. You need to read this to get an idea how raw intel was ginned up to reports form for ez leaking

What followed was a push to preserve the intelligence that underscored the deep anxiety with which the White House and American intelligence agencies had come to view the threat from Moscow.
It also reflected the suspicion among many in the Obama White House that the Trump campaign might have colluded with Russia on election email hacks — a suspicion that American officials say has not been confirmed.
As Inauguration Day approached, Obama White House officials grew convinced that the intelligence was damning and that they needed to ensure that as many people as possible inside government could see it, even if people without security clearances could not. Some officials began asking specific questions at intelligence briefings, knowing the answers would be archived and could be easily unearthed by investigators — including the Senate Intelligence Committee, which in early January announced an inquiry into Russian efforts to influence the election.
At intelligence agencies, there was a push to process as much raw intelligence as possible into analyses, and to keep the reports at a relatively low classification level to ensure as wide a readership as possible across the government — and, in some cases, among European allies. This allowed the upload of as much intelligence as possible to Intellipedia, a secret wiki used by American analysts to share information.
There was also an effort to pass reports and other sensitive materials to Congress
Except that he stacked the White House with special interests, despite campaign rhetoric to the contrary. Once you accept that corporations own this govt, and electing a corporate whore isn't the way to change that, you'll understand that your hopes for change are naive.
he had to use outsiders. It's why he used a lot of military also
More silly conspiracy rhetoric. trump attacked all intel/investigative agencies with reckless abandon. Consider it chickens coming home to roost. He's adrift on the ocean with no hope of a passing ship.
Brennan and Clapper stepped up and defended their institutional Russiaphobia.
If they didn't like it -they could have resigned insted of creating bogus assessments without fact.
There is a Constitutional order here,like it or not
trump doesn't have any policies, save for funneling money to his properties. The rest is empty rhetoric. Change will be painful. Start with import taxes if you want, as he mentioned hundreds of times during his campaign klan rallies.
tarrifs are dead. I think we are down to renegotiation or pulling out
But the answer is really tax reform
Great...when the only necessary comment was 'nazis/bad'.
agree. He tried to equivocate in case there was some people there interested in saving the statue.
I give you credit for at least conceeding it was a mater of speech,not "Trump is a racist Nazi" as the press likes to bloviate
Yes. That's what we require from POTUS. Put your personal opinions aside, and say the right fucking thing in front of the entire world. BTW...trump has Nazis in the White House, so your hysteria is a tad misplaced.
ya ya..Nazi and Russians in the same building.. who would have thunk!!
trump needs his Nazi base, whether he loves/hates them. trump's entire playbook employs 'shouting everyone else off the stage'. Explain to us why 'everyone else' shouldn't repay in kind? Chickens/roost. It ain't just anti Obama rhetoric.
that was the campaign.
No matter what Trump would have said, the resistence/#neverTrump/ fake news would have the Long Knives out
The goal was always de-legitimization
Advancement of the nation's business typically runs contrary to advancing the nation's citizens' interests. Corporate profits have been at record levels for about 7 years.
corps won't spend when the economy is stagnant at 2% or less.
last quarter was 2.6% -largely on hopes of tax reform..you (collective you) can help the country with backing tax reform/simplification, or wallow in partisanship..food for thought
