Political Rant? Okay, More Like Donald Trump Bashing

I try not to impose my political views on people, as I respect everyone's right to make a formulated, rational decision all on their own, without input from me.  But these people who support, idolize, worship and plan to vote for Donald Trump for President of the United States, well, they've just done lost their freakin minds!!!!

Imagine a President Trump, if you will...  Sorry, I'll give you a moment to regain your senses and realize that this is just a hypothetical situation....

Okay, it might take a little longer still to recover.  I must be patient here....

Let's say he doesn't like what Putin is doing in Ukraine.  First, he'll try to negotiate a plan whereby Mexicans will build a wall around Russia and make the Chinese pay for it.  He'll find out that this won't work so he'll just end up buying Ukraine and crashing their economy to the point where all of their real estate interests are cheap and he'll buy them all up.  Then he puts in lavish hotels, casinos, skyscraper office buildings and condos.  He'll really have Putin fuming and wanting to make a deal then!

Back to reality now, George Carlin, one of my heroes, put it this way:

13312677_1069784753068449_2302918593202743383_n.jpg

So if spoiled Americans, who have been living in conditions far greater than most other places on the planet, can't accept a $7.50/hour wage limit, then they just don't understand how this country is supposed to work!  Only Trump should have enough money to wipe his ass with.  Only Trump can find ways to run up such incredible debt and resolve by just saying, "I'll print more money!"  The rest of you should be awed and wowed by his immense skill, talent and resourcefulness that it won't matter that the water you just drank is laced with so many toxins, it could kill you before you finish reading this sentence because we have no more environmental controls!  You think snow in May is bad, oh, just you wait until the "climate change" Trump has in store for you!

Now, I'm not advocating that Ted Cruz or Jeb Bush or John Kasich were better options, but don't you think the Republican party is so lame that the best person they could find that people would like is Donald Trump?  Seriously?  Are things really so bad in America that the rest of the world laughs at the idea of him even being nominated?  It's truly scary and I fear for those who can't see through this mirage he has placed in front of them.

Just sayin...

I find nothing to disagree with in your rant.

Apparently - yes.

I worry.

Preach it!

I won't say more because I think my hate for Trump is well enough documented.

I've been thinking about this. And I think I've found a situation where Trump might trump Clinton.

Trumps net worth: 4.5 billion USD

Clinton's net worth: 45 million USD

Now lets think about a [hypothetical] situation where the needed funds for running the government can't be appropriated for whatever reason. If your incumbent president  at that time decides 'oh shit, I'm doing this with my own money because it is *that* important', Trump can keep everything ticking along 100 times longer than Clinton.

I mean wouldn't that be worth reconsidering your opinion? Just for at least 1 millisecond?

Except that is only Trump's net worth according to Trump. We have no proof that he has that much and there is plenty of evidence that he does not. For one thing, he once explained--under oath no less-- that he estimates his net worth based on how he feels that day.

That isn't the net worth Trump gave himself. I got the net worth for both candidates from Forbes.com. I assumed that they would use a similar method calculating for both of them. I guess I forgot to add that.

Plenty of other reliable sources think that Forbes overestimated that number. His finances are murky and he refuses to release his tax returns. The Clintons have consistently released tax returns so their net worth is likely accurate or very close to it. Trump, not so much.

He made the undocumented immigrants prepare it at least.

      The worst case of this was at Anne Franks house 2 years ago. Everyone respectfully murmurs - same as in a library. A group of high school aged children were running through the rooms and watching stuff on mobile phones with the volume on. Not one teacher said anything. They were there! 
      A few visitors did have a word with them. Things didn’t improve though. 

      The most tense place I have ever been is a Holocaust Museum where several people were being disrespectful and a brawl broke out right next to me. This was maybe the 3rd HM we have visited. I told my husband that’s enough. No more of those. I know what happened and have seen enough.

      Pearl Family 3: Living on Snake Oil, Charcoal and Plexus

      Whatever the results were for the recent scan...if it was showing the cancer shrinking to nothing, they'd be shouting the good news from the rooftops, right? 

      My recent experiences with MRI were that the results were read by the radiologist and posted in the patient portal within a day or two and I assume other scans would be equally speedy. 

      Shalom posted an Instragram story: "Microbiom[e] plays a role in healing from cancer"

      @Columbia, thanks for digging up that account! I remember that depressing saga as if it had happened yesterday. IMO, Bradrick! has many, many miles to go before he's able to redeem himself.

      Today she is in cargo type pants that are form fitting with her shirt tucked in. She doesn’t look obviously pregnant.

      Kelly was supposed to be the shining example of how stay-at-home-daughterhood was the perfect prescription for a young woman to seamlessly move into courtship, marriage and motherhood. She spoke at one of the VF Father-Daughter Retreats, she wrote articles for Vision Forum, the magazine carried a book she wrote about her grandfather in WW2, she had a big section in Return of the Daughters (starts around 26:60.) Their wedding was a huge event, and Doug Phillips made a big deal out of seeing their first kiss at the altar (I believe this indescribably weird photo came from that wedding.) I've always thought this was a good overview of her life within Vision Forum.

      I don't think so. They ran their own little "family ministry" on the side and frequented the conference circuit. One of the daughters also wrote occasionally for Vision Forum.

      Isn’t the infamous Wide Stance photo from this wedding, too? That one still makes me laugh til I can’t breathe!
