Trump at 400 days plus
- Thread starter Walter
- Start date
I think if you had given it a second thought, you'd have desisted on posting that stupidity. The U.S. has 320 million people, so 2 million would just be the tip of the iceberg of the # on welfare. That wouldn't even cover the layabouts and druggies who have no intention of working. He probably should have cut 5 million!
It ain't no different in Kanata neither.
Get real Cliffy!
Trump came up with his plan to battle the Opioid crisis in America yesterday. I didn't review the plan in depth, but the headlines were that he proposes introducing the Death Penalty for major drug dealing.
This is a political gimmick. It has been completely ineffective in reducing the murder rate in America, still the highest in the First World. It would be even less effective against Drug Dealers; most of whom have spent their entire lives in the cross hairs of rival dealers or cartels. Death is simply an occupational hazard.
Capital Punishment has been in decline in America for decades. It is massively expensive to prosecute. It takes decades to adjudicate from charge to execution. It has the effect of brutalizing rather than placating jurisdictions in which it is imposed. And it is a case of mob justice.. ie vengeance and rage.. overtaking reason and jurisprudence.
It is marketing gimmick for Trump, who should realize he cannot run a government in the same way he can sell condos. The War on Drugs has been an absolute failure. The Drug Crisis has much deeper social roots than the availability of drugs and that is where any effective counter measures should begin.

Let's see if it works. Let's see if it stops the Chinese from manufacturing all of that Fentanyl.
Its already on the books. All he wants to do is pursue more DP cases.
Maybe if the Feds pay for it, otherwise very few jurisdictions have the money for it.
It's just bullshit.
BTW it was Clinton who put it on the books.
lol
oh and Stormy takes a lie detector test and passes with flying colours.
poor old President Shit for Brains.

You don't understand. Coldstream has no problem with a married man cheating on his wife with a porn star, as long as he's a racist. Which is understandable. There's no prohibition on adultery in the bible, but tolerating other races is forbidden.
Funny how it says you can't covet your neighbor's wife but it says nothing about boinking her.
Trump’s Wildlife Conservation Council Led By Big Game Hunters Group Who Counts Cecil The Lion Killer As Member
Donald Trump and his administration are under intense scrutiny once more as people are questioning the credentials of the members of the newly formed International Wildlife Conservation Council. Interestingly, some of the people tasked to provide advice regarding the conservation of wildlife are those who hunt them down as trophies.
The International Wildlife Conservation Council will hold its first-ever meeting on Friday, and among the members expected to be in attendance include the host of a reality TV safari hunting show, representatives from the gun industry, a controversial veterinarian, a former beauty queen, and members of big game hunters groups, one of which counts the person responsible for the death of Zimbabwe’s famed Cecil the Lion as its member, Mother Jones reported.
The council is chaired by Steven Chancellor, the coal mining tycoon and an avid supporter of Trump and the Republican Party, according to the Daily Mail. Chancellor is also a big game hunter and his lavish home in Indiana is filled with hundreds of stuffed trophy animals.

That's pretty skewed logic, t-bones. I'm not sure where i stated i had no problem with adultery. However, i do have a problem with it being politicized. It is an issue between Donald, Melania .. and God and that's the end of it. I am totally uninterested in it.
I've certainly got a problem with CNN leering over this and prioritizing a supposed decade + old affair above all the other (important) news. Like Facebook privacy issues, or trade, or drugs, or bombings in Austin. I keep my remote handy and immediately switch whenever one of their 'Stormy' rants and rumble sessions seems imminent.
CNN has basicly become a scandal rag, with not an iota of respect for honest journalism. It's worse than the National Enquirer (one of few news publications which supported Trump) which does not pretend to be anything else.
At least the Enquirer does not select and present topics based on the damage it can inflict on the Trump Presidency. It has become seditious as well as a disgrace to its motto.. 'The Most Trusted Name in News'.

Trump has dismissed his National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster and appointed John Bolton as his replacement.
Bolton, according to people who reported to him as UN Ambassador is classic kiss up, kick down office bully. He comes to the White House via Fox News as did the the new Chief Economic Advisor, Larry Kudlow, who replaced Gary Cohn.
Neither of these new appointees are deep theorists, certainly not visionares. They are spin meisters who conform their rather conventional NeoConservative opinions to a viewer demographic. Bolton is associated with the arch NeoCon Enterprise Institute. Trump seems to be replacing his more ideologically prone advisors with 'yay sayers' while presenting an image of White House more in line with the Republican Establishment. But his actions indicate he is going in a radically different direction.
Case in point is his imposition of broad ranging tariffs on Chinese imports. At the outset these are aimed at reciprocity in trade, negating balance of trade deficits, and, matching Chinese tariffs. Ultimately he will have to realize that mere linkages to deficits or corresponding tariffs will not be enough to revitalize the U.S. economy. He will have to go back to Alexander Hamilton's 'American System' of permanent protective tariffs in the interests of fomenting a sovereign, national, integrated, industrial economy.. that trades in value added product (Canada needs the same).
There will also have to be substantial investment in infrastructure; regulation of banks, trusts, markets, workplace; reform (and renationlalization) of the monetary system, repatriating from supranational agencies and hedge funds that now control it. All that is needed, none of it is new, all of it promotes a fostering and intensely competitive domestic economy. Trump has to essentially overturn the criminal globalization of the economy for the benefit of usurers and traders that has occurred over the last 50 years.
Kudlow doesn't have a clue about that. Trump, perhaps mostly in an unarticulated and instinctual way, does! So neither Bolton or Kudlow are going to be listened to unless they conform to Trump's base vision. They will, that's why they are there.. and why McMaster and Cohn are out.
