  1. Hopefully. We can't as a nation let what was done to Trump's campaign and early presidency slide. It has to be pursued, exposed and prosecuted where applicable.
  2. Well, they waste fewer tax dollars when they are doing nothing so I support it.
  3. He's delivering early as he wants to watch the UB basketball game.
  4. That's jut NBC practicing good customer service. The truth doesn't sell in some circles.
  5. At what point will the left play their last card in this game? The joker, the "we were only kidding" card.
  6. What about Trump's sexual needs Barbara?
  7. Well, you have to hand it to CNN for the spin in this beauty. Great read during hoops commercials. https://www.cnn.com/2019/03/22/politics/11-looming-questions-now-that-muellers-investigation-is-over/index.html
  8. He fits about the same as Howard Schultz.
  9. Except in Chicago it's Democrats trying to find ways to pad their vote totals in order to beat other Democrats.
  10. We're going to have a rare moment of agreement. It's ridiculous for Trump to tweet about George Conway.
  11. Last week a customer came into the office, someone I know to some degree. He's African American. I greeted him and asked him "how are you"? He responded "tall and black". He recognized that for a brief moment I wasn't sure how to respond so he started to laugh. Good moment.
  12. You could argue that most in the media every time they took a paycheck were guilty of this. Seriously though, how verifiable is the claim in your post?
  13. Nope. In Chicago and all over illinois illegal immigrants from all over the globe work in union jobs, restaurants, as truck drivers, warehouse operations, etc.... and they are taking work away from citizens that want the jobs every day. Citizenry as an employment requirement is barely enforced here. Don't believe the 4% unemployment bull#### number. Whenever I place an ad for an entry level operations position here in our small company I get literally 100+ applicants within 3-4 days of posting the job on indeed or similar. Sometimes 200+. Exacerbated by Fannie, Freddie and others who would buy debt in staggering numbers without having strict underlying credit requirements and audits. The portion of actual fraudulent applications was pretty low.
  14. Not entirely true. If illegal immigrant labor is reduced due to greater enforcement, wages for the jobs many illegal immigrants do will have to rise to attract workers. Nothing wrong with that. Supply and demand. So your hotel might cost another $5 a night, your seafood dinner a couple extra bucks and the same with getting your lawn mowed. We have millions of unemployed inner city teens and young adults in this country who don't work in part because so many jobs in particularly sanctuary cities are filled with an over abundance of non-citizen labor. There may be some carve outs for seasonal demand that make sense but we absolutely need to reduce the unskilled labor force. We have a 55% labor participation rate in this country among 16-24 year olds. Park yourself in the south side of Chicago among a bunch of parents of young people and ask them how they feel about city sanctuary policies that reduce the opportunities their kids desperately need. You'll get an earful. https://www.bls.gov/emp/tables/civilian-labor-force-participation-rate.htm
  15. No it points out the very important distinction between governing and style. Both Trump and Obama earn some F's but in very different subjects. In Obama's case the F's are in the big important stuff.
  16. Yes. He's a total lightweight in both experience and policy. He only gave Cruz a run for his money because he had the media totally behind him, a bunch of leftist money and a population in Texas which borders (pun intended) on purple now given all of the transplants from liberal states and the growing latino citizenry. Now he'll have to compete against a dozen more experienced candidates, won't raise a lot of money as you mention and won't have the media completely in his corner as a white guy. He'll be debating early from the outer positions on the stage or in the "B" debate.
  17. Do we know what Steele was paid for his work? This had to be great money for him. A few hours of google searches, a few phone calls to buddies and maybe a trip or two to make it appear to his client he was making a reasonable effort. Pretty good gig until Trump won.
  18. Quite possibly, like a Prius which has components and materials shipped from all over the globe and moreso than most cars. How does he define "meat"? Will cow's milk be served on Mondays?
  19. An American NHL expansion team last year outplayed every Canadian team. An expansion team! And Vermont Maple syrup is the best.
