I do, however, believe that CJ is LG. Let's face it, both believe in conspiracy theories, both want to try every politician for treason, and both are batshit crazy. Also, neither post on the same day as each other.

I think he blatantly lies and misrepresents things a lot and people eat it up.

But if that's the stupid ***the people want, who am I to tell them otherwise?

He's the president we deserve. Good or bad.

You act like lying is a bad thing...

I love how the media can support Hillary who has lied the moment she was an elected official. Then all of the sudden we need to stop Trump from lying...

In other political news, the congress has just voted to dismantle the Congressional Ethics Oversight Board.
Not dismantle, just weaken it

Also:

Trump criticized the move.

It means now Trump and any congressman can openly violate laws such as the nepotism laws and emoluments clause freely without being punished.
It's also news because it was an independent bipartisan board that existed since the George W. Bush days to keep congress on the straight and narrow.
...you do know that the Congressional Ethics Oversight Board only deals with Congress, right?

Oh wait, I forgot, you think that Trump is a traitor to this country because he hasn't assumed office yet. My bad.

*Looks at Congress from that time onward*

So... it was a bipartisan board that didn't do anything.

I have a strong feeling that somebody new is going to come into presidency in 2020.

Somebody that was never a politician, but doesn't have the political or social baggage that either Clinton or Trump had. Somebody who has a lot of good ideas, but couldn't voice them because s/he couldn't come into the 2016 election (cause by the time the nominations were done, it was already too late to be relevant).

Hopefully it's not Lordgrim or a Lordgrim-type idiot.

And so it begins.

Ford halts mexico plant

TL/DR: Due to Trump policies Ford has halted construction plans to build a $1.8Billion plant in Mexico, instead will invest $700 million in Michigan.

Question is, will his voters put their money where his mouth is?

Will they pay higher prices to buy American?

History says probably not.

I think being a mod here disqualifies you for ever being an elected official.

I'm sure they'll find out all about that concept eventually.
