I've lost track how many times you've misspelled the word moron. Maroon is a color. And "expecting to make more arrests" I guess that escapes you as well.

No JB, it escapes you! It's a tongue in cheek reference to moron, that Bugs Bunny used to say in his cartoons! Instead of being so damn snarky all the time, open up that big brain of yours and realize sometimes people on this thread try to inject humor into their posts. I guess, not surprisingly, it just went over your head?

Something tells me Gilsan owns no domains

Have you noticed too ? He never talks domains, he only visits this thread to dump hate propaganda.
I'm not sure what his problem is. Must be very frustrated and unhappy. People who lead balanced and fulfilling lives just carry on with their business, they don't spend their whole time on the Internet trashing refugees and minorities.

They went down, down, down and the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns,

Job numbers are still strong, but wages are down and cost of living is up, Healthcare costs will probably increase a lot next year. CBO predicts economic slowdown in subsequent years, fueled by tariffs and trade disputes.

Nice attempted save, he would have replied with that. I guess you both just happen to be big time Bugs Bunny fans and instead of saying what you mean, go the cartoon route. That's believable. No do your vs. you're.

Based on the chart in the article and what we went over before, that 4.1 could be Trump's best, which compared to Obama, would only rank 5th. So Obama beats him there as well. That article and other experts all saying the same thing. It should be clear as the next Presidential election comes around and that really is the only thing that's holding him up to this point. Once that starts to fall, that's it for him. So Trump/fans have some time to come up with excuses. How will the put the economy on the Dems?

When the economy goes..........

Dumb Donald is tweeting again, on a Sunday:

The failing @nytimes wrote a Fake piece today implying that because White House Councel Don McGahn was giving hours of testimony to the Special Councel, he must be a John Dean type “RAT.” But I allowed him and all others to testify - I didn’t have to. I have nothing to hide......

....and have demanded transparency so that this Rigged and Disgusting Witch Hunt can come to a close. So many lives have been ruined over nothing - McCarthyism at its WORST! Yet Mueller & his gang of Dems refuse to look at the real crimes on the other side - Media is even worse!

Study the late Joseph McCarthy, because we are now in period with Mueller and his gang that make Joseph McCarthy look like a baby! Rigged Witch Hunt!

haha, this guy - https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump?lang=en

He knows what's coming. Like I said, you guys have some time. Big bad news coming. Mueller report. Economy going backwards. Get your excuses ready. Because I'm going to remind you, that you supported all this.

If you're going to lie, you should go back to sub-tweeting.

I hope one day I come to this thread and you actually back up a post. I don't lie, so your post doesn't make sense. Then, you don't mention, what exactly did I lie about? Was it that you reposted the Dow had a record high? Is that it?

Nobody “wants” the economy to crash. A lot of us, including conservatives, think that current policy and recent decisions are leading us down that road.

Market is down since January. Fact.. But to most Americans the market doesn’t reflect real life. Lots of folks don’t have investment accounts or just have a 401k - whether the increase will mean anything to them or not depends on what happens between now and when they can start taking money out. Numbers may look good on paper, but if wages aren’t keeping up with an increased cost of living, what good is that?

I don’t worry much over ups and downs in the market - I’ve been investing long enough know that corrections happen and over time things generally increase, but the pace of the increases since mid 2017 has “bubble” written all over it. The market is still reflecting corporate giddiness over massive deregulation. Tariffs, trade wars and increased health care costs are going to hit consumers where it hurts. “Tax cut” also removed a lot of deductions and that reality is going to hit the middle class next year at tax time. Cost of living increases, people spend less money, profits dip, stock market goes back down. Turnarounds, especially negative ones, can and do happen in the blink of an eye.

"market is down".

Markets go up and down. Overall, the economy is up and improving.

All that effort and you just end up owning yourself and not even realizing it. Brilliant.

And no, we don't want to see the economy tank. That's why I never supported the joke we have in office. Again, you own this now.

Trump speechwriter fired amid scrutiny of appearance with white nationalists

"A White House speechwriter for President Trump was terminated last week after revelations that he had spoken at a conference attended by well-known white nationalists, according to three people familiar with the decision who were not authorized to speak publicly.

Darren Beattie, who was a visiting instructor at Duke University before he joined the White House speechwriting team, was fired Friday after a media inquiry about his appearance at the 2016 H.L. Mencken Club conference, where Beattie spoke on a panel alongside Peter Brimelow.

Brimelow, founder of the anti-immigrant website Vdare.com, is a “white nationalist” and “regularly publishes works by white supremacists, anti-Semites, and others on the radical right,” according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, an advocacy group that tracks extremists."

Replying to @realDonaldTrump @nytimes
@realDonaldTrump (I still have trouble using the title Mr. President for someone installed by Putin), I doubt you have ANY IDEA what McGahn has told Mueller. Also, Nixon knew I was meeting with prosecutors, b/c I told him. However, he didn’t think I would tell them the truth!

House of Trump, House of Putin: The Untold Story of Donald Trump and the Russian Mafia

https://www.amazon.com/House-Trump-Putin-Untold-Russian/dp/152474350X

"It is a chilling story that begins in the 1970s, when Trump made his first splash in the booming, money-drenched world of New York real estate, and ends with Trump’s inauguration as president of the United States. That moment was the culmination of Vladimir Putin’s long mission to undermine Western democracy, a mission that he and his hand-selected group of oligarchs and Mafia kingpins had ensnared Trump in, starting more than twenty years ago with the massive bailout of a string of sensational Trump hotel and casino failures in Atlantic City. This book confirms the most incredible American paranoias about Russian malevolence.

To most, it will be a hair-raising revelation that the Cold War did not end in 1991—that it merely evolved, with Trump’s apartments offering the perfect vehicle for billions of dollars to leave the collapsing Soviet Union. In House of Trump, House of Putin, Craig Unger methodically traces the deep-rooted alliance between the highest echelons of American political operatives and the biggest players in the frightening underworld of the Russian Mafia. He traces Donald Trump’s sordid ascent from foundering real estate tycoon to leader of the free world. He traces Russia’s phoenixlike rise from the ashes of the post–Cold War Soviet Union as well as its ceaseless covert efforts to retaliate against the West and reclaim its status as a global superpower.

Without Trump, Russia would have lacked a key component in its attempts to return to imperial greatness. Without Russia, Trump would not be president. This essential book is crucial to understanding the real powers at play in the shadows of today’s world."

So basically he's saying Trump has been laundering money for the Russian Mafia.
