tRump didn’t pay them from his bank account either, they were paid by the businesses that had his name on them. That he repeatedly bankrupted, and left his investors holding bad debt, while he walked away clean. The point is, tRump claims he will provide jobs to Americans as president, when he hires immigrants as a businessman.
The fact is that no successful businessman has ever been a successful president, and only a few have even been serious contenders for the job.
A talent for developing private companies and making big profits seldom translates into wooing a majority of voters or governing a contentious republic. It may, in fact, blind one from recognizing critical differences between those equally difficult endeavors.
What’s your point? Would you like govm’t to run at a profit while “redistributing wealth” in the form of collected taxes to 1%-ers who can afford to purchase stock in the USA? What if we had an American IPO and Vlad Putin bought controlling interest? Would you like that? Govm’t is NOT supposed to be run like a business. It’s supposed to serve ALL citizens, not just the wealthy. American-style boom/bust capitalism is not a good model for govm’t.
Would you please make a LIST of everything that you NEED, that you cannot provide for yourself?,
Examples:
!.) Military
2.) Fire Department & Police Department
3.) Maintaining Roads, Bridges, Utilities, Waste Collection,
What is #4 #5 #6 #7 that YOU cannot provide for your family
If you cannot spare ten minutes from your life, or even two to scan it and get the gist, what would I possibly say that would satisfy you?
Oh. all right.
A COUNTRY.
Short enough for you?
There’s a reason Hitler was able to walk all over Europe, and that was because he didn’t have to defeat a massive coalition at first; all he had to do was take the weaker countries out one at a time, until his resources and fronts had expanded to a point where he could have conceivably taken over that entire region.
But after joining forces, the Allies defeated the Axis, and we all lived happily ever after.
Now, suppose Mexico suddenly wanted Texas back?(For what gawdawful reason, I don’t know…maybe oil or farmland.)
But, we’re all independent states! We don’t need no stinkin’ guvmint to get all up in our business!
Think Texas would be able to repel a Mexican invasion all by its lonesome? No matter how many true cowboys with guns there might be? Because Texas has no standing army.
They’d be taken quite easily, without the resst of us standing behind them.
I suppose YOU’RE trying to make a point about RUGGED individualism and libertarian principles or some such GARBAGE. However I don’t buy either of those ideas as primaries guides for US citizens. Does the phrase “more perfect union” sound familiar? We’re all in this together, even the dolts like you who don’t want to be.
More honest than you buddy. Somehow I feel you would have come to the same ridiculous conclusion no matter what I wrote. Stupid things to post are #1 on your list
He created millions of new jobs with the stimulus, and those jobs created millions more in support jobs and that is why we have the lowest unemployment in over a decade.
I see numbers are a little hard for you. Lower numbers is called “falling” because the number is declining. If hamsters ate half your YUUUGE stash of Monopoly money, you’d go from $50k, to 25k. Your real estate fortune would be “falling.”
Math is hard, but if you really really want to, and work really really hard, you can do simple arithmetic too!
Just a few things you can thank the Obama administration for in spite of the
constant Republican obstruction, and in just his first term, at that…….
Ended the Iraq War.
Got rid of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.
Record oil production
Record solar energy and wind production
Recovered more Medicare Fraud than the last 6 administrations put together.
Passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
First Latina on the Supreme Court.
32 million+ more people now have health insurance.
Killed Osama bin Ladin.
Killed Anwar Al-Anwalki.
Wiped out 20 of the top 30 Qaeda leadership.
Killed Somali pirates and saved crew.
Ousted Gaddafi without harm to American troops.
Saved the auto industry, and soon GM ranked no. 1 in world
Saved the aid workers in Somalia, using Seal Team Six.
Cash for Clunkers such a success, it was extended.
Instituted banking regulations.
Instituted credit card regulations.
All THAT and he added $10 TRILLION ($10,000,000,000,000) to our national debt.
Think about it: When the debt becomes $20T, and the interest rate hits 6% – as everyone says will happen soon – the yearly INTEREST on that $20T will be $1.2 TRILLION.
Our last budget that was just passed that pays for EVERYTHING we need was $1.1 trillion.
Again, the INTEREST alone (at only 6%) on $20T will be $1.2T a year.
WHY does your interest in the fetus cease the second it leaves the womb and becomes a parasite on your society…by needing food, clothing and shelter…Mr compassionate conservative???
My local Burger King franchise employs more Americans than Trump’s fancy club. Perhaps he should run for president of Romania or another Eastern European country, since he employs so many of their citizens in jobs such as trophy wives.
How many terrorist leaders did Trump take out? How many national economies has he run? How many militaries has he lead? How many political offices has he held? How many degrees has he accumulated? Nobel prizes? How many millions of people has Trump gotten healthcare for? How many nuclear arms reductions treaties has he signed?
So, if I took YOUR hard-earned money from you, took it right out of your wallet, and then I gave YOUR money to someone so they can buy health insurance, who then THANKS ME FOR BEING SO GENEROUS, you wouldn’t be upset?
Obama took OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY and then gave that money to people so they could BUY health insurance.
And then Obama took the credit for providing the money to those people.
Those people THANKED Obama, not the people he stole the money from.
And you’re OKAY with that!
LOL
As I said above, taxes aren’t “stealing” your money. Perhaps you should develop your reading skills (“that link is too long”… sheesh) and try reading this thing called the Constitution. Or, you could continue being ignorant. I think you’ll go for Door #2.
First, you would have to prove to me that anyone is “stealing” your play money. See, taxes aren’t theft. They are a constitutional power vested in the federal government. You may have heard of the Constitution. Well, not all of it is the 2nd Amendment. Among other places, the Constitution has a 16th Amendment which specifically gives the right to tax your income. If it’s constitutional, O’ Ill Wind of Paul, it’s not theft. Which pretty much makes your first point total nonsense ( and sorry-assed whining.)
Second, I think that providing every citizen with healthcare is a PROPER and APPROPRIATE use our tax dollars, as opposed to continuing our oppressive wars of imperialism started by the previous administration. It takes a certain kind of self-involved and hateful person to think that children getting healthcare is a BAD thing.
Third, you are legally required to pay taxes. So you are NOT being generous. What with all the whining and kvetching and self-pity, it is anything but generosity. See, when you snivel and complain, it ain’t being generous.
Fourth, have you never used a public road? I see you are using the internet, developed with those same tax dollars. If you house catches on fire, you expect someone to come try to put it out? Taxes, Paulie. Ever flown? Thank the FCC, TSA, FAA. Paid for by? Taxes, Paulie. Ever heard of the VA? That healthcare we provide for those we send out to invade other countries and kill their citizens? Paid for by your tax dollars. Ever watch TV? Used a cell phone? How about NASA? Paid for by tax dollars. Here’s a few of the spinoffs from that organization:
01. Enriched Baby Food
02. Digital Cameras
03. Modern Airplane Wing Design
04. GPS
05. Memory Foam
06. International Search and Rescue System
07. Shock Absorbers for Buildings and Bridges
08. Advanced Water Filtration
09. Invisible Braces
10. Satellites (TV, GPS, Google Earth)
11. LEDs
12. Infrared Ear Thermometers
13. Modern Prostheses
14. Video Enhancing and Analysis
15. Airplane Anti-Icing Systems
16. Bio Detectors (Anthrax detectors, for instance.)
17. Wireless Light Switches
18. Liquid Metal (other than mercury)
19. Home Blood Pressure Kits
20. Freeze Drying
21. Scratch Resistant Lenses
22. Modern Insulation
23. Cordless Tools
24. Adjustable Smoke Detectors
25. CAT Scanners
Don’t use ANY of those. My tax dollars paid for those things, and I would be UPSET if you used them! Why should my tax dollars benefit “you people.” Selfish hateful snivelers who don’t thank me for my generosity!
100’s of thousands? you poor thing. you were one of the same idiots criticizing the President for the his choice in condiments, because you’re just pissy and butthurt. this demented idiot committed fraud against the very people, who like you salivate at his feet, out of tens of thousands of dollars. but, you’re good with that. pathetic.
I sometimes forget that you right wing Limbaugh lickers base success strictly on how much money a person has.
The fact that he called a decorated Viet Nam vet and former POW a loser, doesn’t phase you.
The fact that he had to pay fines for hiring illegal aliens doesn’t phase you.
The fact that he bilked people out of money by setting up a phony university doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he simply closed the doors, and left hundreds of employees out in the cold as well as creditors in the lurch because of his bankruptcy’s doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he cannot even remember which foot he used to dodge the draft doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he sends jobs overseas and has his products made in China doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he mocks handicapped people doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he has been caught in lie after lie doesn’t bother you. Muslims dancing in the streets in Jersey after 911? It simply didn’t happen.
The fact that he is an overt racist doesn’t phase you.
Making money by being a liar, thief and cheat doesn’t make you a success.
By your standards Bernie Madoff is a success and mother Theresa is a failure.
Yes I do sometimes forget how willing you clowns are to kiss even the lowest scum-buckets ass.
As long as the scum-bucket has money.
The one thing Trump is actually good at is telling morons what he thinks they want to hear. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/64f4a7f9233ccd7448f9635dab436bb2bf7f32cec966cc11cabe0a745ebd2127.png
Mar-a-Lago submitted to the Labor Department, it had received at least 296 local names for 520 seasonal jobs since 2010.
———
Hmmm lets see.. trump needed to fill 500 jobs and received 296 applications only to hire 17
520 jobs – 17 hired employees from 296 applicants = 279 still waiting to hear from donald if they have a job ?
But wait we have a 207 remainder donald Where do we hide it ?

It takes a certain kind of self-involved and hateful person to think that children getting healthcare is a BAD thing.
Third, you are legally required to pay taxes. So you are NOT being generous. What with all the whining and kvetching and self-pity, it is anything but generosity. See, when you snivel and complain, it ain’t being generous.
Fourth, have you never used a public road? I see you are using the internet, developed with those same tax dollars. If you house catches on fire, you expect someone to come try to put it out? Taxes, Paulie. Ever flown? Thank the FCC, TSA, FAA. Paid for by? Taxes, Paulie. Ever heard of the VA? That healthcare we provide for those we send out to invade other countries and kill their citizens? Paid for by your tax dollars. Ever watch TV? Used a cell phone? How about NASA? Paid for by tax dollars. Here’s a few of the spinoffs from that organization:
01. Enriched Baby Food
02. Digital Cameras
03. Modern Airplane Wing Design
04. GPS
05. Memory Foam
06. International Search and Rescue System
07. Shock Absorbers for Buildings and Bridges
08. Advanced Water Filtration
09. Invisible Braces
10. Satellites (TV, GPS, Google Earth)
11. LEDs
12. Infrared Ear Thermometers
13. Modern Prostheses
14. Video Enhancing and Analysis
15. Airplane Anti-Icing Systems
16. Bio Detectors (Anthrax detectors, for instance.)
17. Wireless Light Switches
18. Liquid Metal (other than mercury)
19. Home Blood Pressure Kits
20. Freeze Drying
21. Scratch Resistant Lenses
22. Modern Insulation
23. Cordless Tools
24. Adjustable Smoke Detectors
25. CAT Scanners
Don’t use ANY of those. My tax dollars paid for those things, and I would be UPSET if you used them! Why should my tax dollars benefit “you people.” Selfish hateful snivelers who don’t thank me for my generosity!

So, someone with ten “failures” compared to THOUSANDS of his successes is, in your warped mind, a “failure”.
And the $10,000,000,000 EMPIRE he has created, with the HUNDREDS-OF-THOUSANDS of people he EMPLOYED, all of that is what you call a “failure”?
LOL
whatthe46 February 26th, 2016 at 16:14
100’s of thousands? you poor thing. you were one of the same idiots criticizing the President for the his choice in condiments, because you’re just pissy and butthurt. this demented idiot committed fraud against the very people, who like you salivate at his feet, out of tens of thousands of dollars. but, you’re good with that. pathetic.

I sometimes forget that you right wing Limbaugh lickers base success strictly on how much money a person has.
The fact that he called a decorated Viet Nam vet and former POW a loser, doesn’t phase you.
The fact that he had to pay fines for hiring illegal aliens doesn’t phase you.
The fact that he bilked people out of money by setting up a phony university doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he simply closed the doors, and left hundreds of employees out in the cold as well as creditors in the lurch because of his bankruptcy’s doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he cannot even remember which foot he used to dodge the draft doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he sends jobs overseas and has his products made in China doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he mocks handicapped people doesn’t bother you.
The fact that he has been caught in lie after lie doesn’t bother you. Muslims dancing in the streets in Jersey after 911? It simply didn’t happen.
The fact that he is an overt racist doesn’t phase you.
Making money by being a liar, thief and cheat doesn’t make you a success.
By your standards Bernie Madoff is a success and mother Theresa is a failure.
Yes I do sometimes forget how willing you clowns are to kiss even the lowest scum-buckets ass.
As long as the scum-bucket has money.
The one thing Trump is actually good at is telling morons what he thinks they want to hear.

Is this what Trump meant about bringing jobs to America?
robert February 25th, 2016 at 18:32
Mar-a-Lago submitted to the Labor Department, it had received at least 296 local names for 520 seasonal jobs since 2010.
———
Hmmm lets see.. trump needed to fill 500 jobs and received 296 applications only to hire 17
520 jobs – 17 hired employees from 296 applicants = 279 still waiting to hear from donald if they have a job ?
But wait we have a 207 remainder donald Where do we hide it ?
Help us out donald ! the math is getting tricky

Experts say Donnie only employs a few dozen. Now that bankrupt $293 M Trump Taj Mahal was sold to bottom fisher Carl Icahn, losing Trump $280 M+. “Lenders controlled by Icahn provided Trump Entertainment $20 million in bankruptcy financing to help fund operations until the turnaround plan takes effect.”-Bloomberg March 12, 2015. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-12/trump-taj-mahal-joins-icahn-empire-as-bankruptcy-plan-approved
