So, Trump caught a hoax somehow?

Hahaha, first of all the Dems have only had any kind of Fed power for less that two years since Jan. 10th or so of 2019 after the huge victories taking over the House of Reps. The Dems have put forward many, many really good bills in the House of Reps since that time that were passed but stonewalled in the Senate, why because of Moscow Mitch. Look it up, bills to help kids, to help schools, to help with healthcare, etc.

The HOuse of Reps put forth a big needed Covid recovery package 4 months ago that the Fed Reserve has been saying is much needed again yet Mitch and Donald wont pass it while regular people go belly up. Give me a break

Second, Trump and Ross trying to put a citizenship question on the Census, an original constitutional statute, is the utmost in their trying to mess with America, with all their loyalty oaths around the Cabinet table.

And all your Republicans do is give more tax breaks to the wealthy and widen the wealth gap, that is the only thing the Repub party stands for so that must be what you like.

Seems to me that anyone putting support behind either party is like rooting for the Cyclowns.
 
Since this is the political thread, I'll throw this in here: You had to love the fly on Pence's head last night at the VP debate. The fly didn't move for two minutes. Pence showed amazing restraint to not swat the thing off.

It wasn't that amazing to me...flies land on crap pretty regularly. Mike Pence lol. The moment he said he couldn't go into a room with another woman without others being present...well...that's pretty revealing. Mother wouldn't approve. He the moral fiber guy...then he supports the most amoral man in America. Sure Mike. He can really spin the Presidents words though...i'll give him that.
 
You are predictably exposing yourself as a talking point conservative. Attack the educated as “elite.” Not any chance you will be defined as a elite. Congrats! Education makes you an elite. That is probably the dumbest thing I have heard in 2020.

LOL..so I guess my MBA doesn't make me an "elite" because I don't drink from the left wing well? But somehow, your community college diploma makes you an "elite" because you do? Whatever dude - i bet you're a lot of fun at parties. I guess I was strong enough, open minded enough and had enough common sense to not believe the bullshit college professors indoctrinated...er...taught us as kids. Mostly taught by people that never accomplished a damn thing in the real world!

My observation after being on this earth for many years is that the "tolerant" left are the most intolerant, elitist, judgemental pricks on the planet. "You must think like I do or you're an uneducated rube, or rascist, or fascist, or homophobic, or whatever the line of the day is." You know...basically what you just said about me above. BTW - I'm none of those things.

We not going to solve anything here. Have a nice day!
 
I don't like either but call out Biden w Trump out of control? Biden showed lot of restraint for a guy who can't restrain himself around little girls.


Yep, these are the two we have to choose from. Pathetic, isn't it?

I personally would rather have Pence but that ain't gunna happen at this point.
 
A great response to all the deniers of Trump's lack of action. It is factual, because our airlines and customs and border patrol keep the data, that 40,000 people came back to the US after the ban and did not have to isolate.

Geezus, so now you're bitching because he shut travel down when this was all new at the time. You do realize that every damn country is dealing with this correct? The fact that you think if Biden or the democrats were in control that this country would be way better off if laughable.

So you want to completely shut the country down affecting 97% of the population that the virus wouldn't be problematic with, burying families financially where it would take years to dig out of, kill a shitload of small businesses, etc.. Don't you understand the collateral damage of the decisions being made? Ok.

Pence is so Botoxed he couldn't even feel it. Not kidding.

He's had more failed nose jobs than Michael Jackson, you can see there's nothing left and his nostrils are collapsed.

It's not even close to this. Not even a comparison.

Yeah...Trump capped the mortgage interest deduction to $10000 per year on your federal taxes. Who does that hurt? Mostly people in CA, NY, IL, and NJ...or they high housing cost states. Interesting...all blue states that he has no chance of winning. Vindictive. Bad leadership. I've not called you any names...you are calling me a BS leftie though. By the way...your boy in Washington calls people names all the time...cute little nicknames...like a 12 year old girl does.

You have no idea what you're talking about. The mortgage interest deduction is capped at the amount of interest you pay on the first $750,000 of a mortgage. The deduction that is capped at $10k is the SALT (State and Local Taxes) deduction.
Of course, Trump also cut marginal rates pretty dramatically to go along with capping those deductions. It's funny, ten years ago phasing out or elminating those sorts of itemized deductions that disproportionately inure to the wealthy and upper middle class was all the rage in liberal circles. Then Orange Man actually does it and its "ERMAGAHD, ORANGE MAN BAD."



Shocker!!
 
LOL..so I guess my MBA doesn't make me an "elite" ...?
There's not a lower scum ball than someone who throws their degree out for conversation. Unless you're a scientist or in a medical field that requires it, nobody gives a F how many PhDs or JDs or MBAs you have.

Let your intellect speak for itself (your posts here are doing a fine job of telling us you're a community college drop out) and take your ridiculously gaudy framed diploma off the wall. Literally no one gives a shit, Jack.

And by the way, telling people you have an MBA is like bragging that you won a contest to see who can whisper the loudest. It's literally the easiest, low-rent graduate degree there is. It's the Bud Light of graduate studies. Everyone and their brother has an MBA from the University Of Upper NW Poughkeepsie State Online, Strip Mall Campus.

Lastly, sorry to you "MBAs" (why do you guys call yourselves that? Lawyers don't call themselves "JDs") who might have been offended by that comment, but it's true. Even a masters in something dumb like philosophy or medieval history requires actual reading, research, and writing skills. The puppy mill that is the MBA community requires Excel templates and wikipedia.

You and Donny both do a great job on baseless rants. I guess your MBA did’t teach you to read plain language. Yup. You are right. Nothing to be solved here.

My uncle knew some lady who, not shockingly worked in some admin capacity in higher ed, had failed the bar 20 times (each administration 10 years in a row) before conceding she would not be a lawyer. She insisted that everyone call her "Doctor" because of her JD.

A law degree used to be called a LLB, but a bunch of numbnut dipshits with overinflated egos realized that (a) their schools could make more money if they conferred a 3 year "doctorate" and (b) government employment (of which many of them had) would pay more money for law profs if they had a "doctorate" as opposed to a lowly LLB. The whole thing is a total scam.

We had a guy working here a couple years ago in our customer service call center (not a service tech, he just took calls when customers knew what parts they needed). Had a geography degree, tried teaching and hated it, so he quit and came to work for us. Unbeknownst to management he started taking online MBA classes at University of Phoenix (online puppy mill that just takes your money and xeroxes you a diploma), and 18 months later he has a piece of paper that says masters degree on it. I worked with him some, and I'm 100% certain from experience that he wouldn't have passed his 201 business classes to get his bachelor's.

He quit here, took the Series 6 test a few times, and a local yokel bank a couple towns over actually hired his ass to sell financial advice. I wouldn't give this guy $5 to run to McDonalds for me and now he's managing Ma and Pa Kettle's retirement accounts and farm inheritances. Unfucking real.

I heard through the grapevine (his wife is one of my kid's teachers) that he took some online prep classes for his series 7 and now he's selling individual paper and money market shit.

But he's an Emm Bee Ay...

I'm going to do something Trump and his supporters NEVER do. I'll admit I was wrong...I said mortgage interest deduction, but it was the state and local tax deduction cap that I meant. I made a mistake and got them confused. Guess what didn't change...the fact the cap was directed at predominately blue states...and he's threatened to cut federal aid several times to Democratic governors based on his political goals and to hurt his political enemies. It hurts people...not Governors. Orange man is bad.

I'm not a barrister so I have no idea, but there's seriously no limit to the number of times you can take it?

In the medical field there's limits and if you flop your boards a couple times you're gonna be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit outta Hong Kong.

Legal representation is just as important as your health imo.

In a movie full of great quotes, this one takes the absolute cake. Biggest casualty of The Germ has been the continued delay of Top Gun 2. It's the only movie in years that I have actually looked forward to. Trump ruined it. This clerk pretty much summarizes the past 4 years of my life because I knew Trump would ruin Top Gun 2.
