Surprised we don’t have a Presidential wiper, or maybe we do but Pence wasn’t available this time.

I know that if you turn in a tax cheat to the feds, you are entitled to some "reward". Does anybody know if that is true for NY state or NYC taxes? If so, would the NYT be getting paid?

Would they get paid enough to not be failing any more?

Please of please let's see the trumpkins begin to intentionally walk around w/ shit paper on their heals as another sign of devotion to their orange god a la their MAGA hats. I LOVE it when idiots self-identify.

You just know he's royally pissed this morning because he didn't get the Nobel peace prize. 

I wonder if Republicans realize the GOP is the Idiocracy party?


They could not get the reference or work out the context of “ocracy.” The ones who stumbled across the movie assumed that multiculturalism caused all the trash in the future and thought some things were still badass because all the homosexuals were targets of ridicule. They liked the fart jokes and Starbucks brothel and monster car justice.

POTUS now echoing Russian propaganda (((SOROS)))

Calling them paid protesters is an authoritarian tactic used to suppress legitimate dissent.

Say what you will....but man, I’m a sucker for that look. That’s just damned fine.

Looks like she already carrying the "first term 15", but is still a handsome woman.

She really needs to lose the aggy boots tho.

Amazing that in 140 characters dotus can spew misogyny, antisemitism, and take a shit on the First Amendment.  And 35% of the country loves it, and it's just another Friday morning to the rest of us.

oh, no doubt. I didn't say it wasn't hot AF. 

So apparently Trump went after Al Franken at his Minnesota rally last night.  He mocked him, claiming that he "folded up like a wet rag" after getting accused of sexual misconduct and resigning without a fight.  So for those keeping score, Bill Clinton is bad for not resigning but Franken is bad for doing just that.  You can't win with these dishonest morons.

 

I guess a silver lining is that at least Trump is diversifying his metaphors.  It's not as if Al Franken folded up like a dog.

I've never really looked at this photo very carefully because it always pisses me off. but, look how clean that knife is. There is no way he removed the tail himself. And why remove the tail? and why kill an elephant at all. douchebag probably didn't even shoot the poor thing.

SIAP:  Trump's Presdidency is making him poorer:


 

Quote

"When Donald Trump opened Trump Tower in 1983, it marked a seminal moment in American retail, as six stories of glitzy shops like Harry Winston and Cartier beckoned luxury buyers who strode past a live pianist and a 60-foot indoor waterfall. “We got the highest rents ever, anywhere,” says former Trump Organization executive Barbara Res, standing in the pink atrium four decades after she helped build it.

Times have changed. Gazing around, almost all the tenants are now gone. The hollowing-out began years ago, but it has only gotten worse since Trump entered politics. Nike abandoned its attached flagship store earlier this year, and Ivanka Trump’s accessories business closed up shop as well. What’s left is basically nothing but Gucci, Starbucks and The Donald, wall-to-wall. Trump Bar sits atop Trump Grille, next to Trump Café, the Trump Store and Trump’s Ice Cream. It is unlikely Trump pays himself rent for any of them. “Things are all different now,” Res says.

That difference includes profits. Net operating income dropped 27% between 2014, the year before Trump announced his run for president, and 2017, his first year in the White House. When the real estate mogul descended the escalator to launch his campaign, in this very building, no one could have predicted the chain of events that would lead to this point. Even among those who gave his moon-shot presidential bid a chance of success, the assumption was that Trump would dump his assets before taking office. 

By refusing to divest, Trump raised an unprecedented question: How would the most divisive presidency in modern American history affect a company built on the president’s persona? Forbes has been working to answer that question since the moment Trump got elected, interviewing nearly 200 colleagues, partners and industry observers. While the experiment continues to unfold, in real time, the early results are in. Much as he’s trying—and he’s definitely trying—Donald Trump is not getting richer off the presidency. Just the opposite. His net worth, by our calculation, has dropped from $4.5 billion in 2015 to $3.1 billion the last two years, knocking the president 138 spots lower on the Forbes 400.

Three factors are at play. Much of that decline is due to deeper reporting, which revealed, for example, that the president had been lying about the size of his penthouse. Some of it is due to larger market forces. Trump owns commercial space at a time when e-commerce is decimating brick-and-mortar retail, shaving more than $100 million off his fortune—and no amount of bully-pulpit Amazon-bashing will change that. 

But the third factor comes from how Trump the president affects Trump the brand. Those familiar with him saw his 2016 run as a surreal marketing strategy, and Trump has said as much, telling Fortune way back in 2000, “It’s very possible that I could be the first presidential candidate to run and make money on it.” Since his unexpected ascent to the White House, Trump has tried to leverage the trappings of the presidency to benefit his commercial projects, from visits to his golf courses to hosting summits at Mar-a-Lago to launching a new hotel-licensing business aimed at his voters. (The Trump Organization denies the licensing business has to do with politics.)

“My father made a tremendous sacrifice when he left a company that he spent his entire life building to go into politics,” counters Eric Trump, who now comanages the Trump Organization on behalf of the president, in a statement to Forbes. “Everything he does is for the good of the American people—he has zero involvement in the Trump Organization and quite frankly to suggest otherwise is outrageous.” (Eric Trump himself, however, told Forbes shortly after the inauguration that he would provide the president bottom-line updates “probably quarterly.”)

Either way, Trump’s mixture of politics and business has proved to be a net loser for him so far. In further polarizing the country, he has also further polarized his business—to the tune of an estimated $200 million hit against his net worth. Understanding how that has happened offers a fresh window into the state of Trump Inc.—and Trump’s America.

Nothing to see here! Just mentioned on this page and all throughout this thread. It’s easy for the GOP to laugh off and dismiss the comparisons to Nazi Germany from random internet posters. Maybe a little harder when a leading Holocaust historian is making the comparison. Then again maybe not...

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/10/5/17940610/trump-hitler-history-historian

Browning, a professor emeritus at the University of North Carolina, specializes in the origins and operation of Nazi genocide. His 1992 book Ordinary Men, a close examination of how an otherwise unremarkable German police battalion evolved into an instrument of mass slaughter, is widely seen as one of the defining works on how typical Germans became complicit in Nazi atrocities.

So when Browning makes comparisons between the rise of Hitler and our current historical period, this isn’t some keyboard warrior spouting off. It is one of the most knowledgeable people on Nazism alive using his expertise to sound the alarm as to what he sees as an existential threat to American democracy.
