    You mean all those emoluments clause violations? We still won't know his net worth or even his income until he releases his tax returns--in other words, until hell freezes over. $3billion is doubtful.

    I wonder how much money he has borrowed from the Saudi and Emirati … to maintain this false billionaire image?

    Why do you give a shit anyway?

    Obama was teaching law up until a couple years before becoming Pres, it's not like that's any kind of training to handling the world's biggest economy, hence the mess he created after the GFC

    And Jimmy Carter used to grow peanuts

    Mustn't forget Trump U. All the poor schmucks he swindled out of their hard earned money hoping to get rich like him. And Trump Steaks. Trump Steakhouse in Vegas was cited for 51 health code violations, and eventually Trump Steaks was discontinued. Then there was Trump vodka, another flop. Trump board games; ditto. Trump Airlines, which never made a profit, put passengers at risk by cost cutting measures, and likewise closed.
    Don't forget Trump Mortgage Comapany; you'd think a real estate mogul could make a go of that, but no; it folded after a year and a half of operation. Go Trump.com , which gave vacation spot recommendations, likewise. And Trump Magazine; same deal. Deutsche Bank saved his bacon by lending him more than $2billion over two decades when no other financial institution would. The bank was trying to make inroads in Wall Street by taking on high-risk investments. In the decade before his presidential run, Trump's main source of revenue came from selling his brand name and from his "reality show gig on the Apprentice playing big shot and telling people "You're fired!" Anyone who thinks this is a pattern of "success" should file for moral bankruptcy.

    I care about the integrity of the presidency, the rule of law, and the survival of U.S. democracy. Carter and Obama made their livings honestly.

    Trumps an idiot if he thinks he is going to get re elected by antagonizing the George Floyd protesters.

    Dude is out of his mind.

    Most of them seem to be under 30, most of whom don't bother to vote anyway and if they do 2/3 or whatever the split is vote Democrat


    How many Americans are there in that 18-30 range? 40 or 50 million

    So, say 1 million protesters, how well do they actually represent the 50 million young Americans in the first place?

    That's vs 100 -150 million people that are pissed off their cities and neighbourhoods just got trashed

    I'd say the Donald does have it right

    Most Americans support the protestors over Trump. Sixty-seven of American adults think Trump made racial tensions worse by his response to Floyd's death.. Poll: Two-Thirds Think Trump Made Racial Tensions Worse After Floyd Was Killed
    Trump and the Republicans have a particular problem with suburban white women, who do turn out to vote. They aren't enamored of Trump and his divisive politics.
    Trump faces severe suburban slump
    Political analyst: White, suburban women are 'fleeing the Trump party'
    In suburban Texas, 'it feels like there’s no place for lifelong Republicans like me'
    Can the New Activist Passion of Suburban White Women Change American Politics?
    So maybe his hard line approach is a stroke of genius, but maybe not.

    Let's see his taxes. I was audited once, and it didn't take the IRS three years to do it.

    You don't know that, in fact you show your ignorance about most things. Why don't you be a good little boy and support the protests in Perth, and Sydney?
    You might take this into consideration.
    I am paraphrasing the late and great UCLA basketball coach, John Wooden.
    It's not what you think you know that's important, it's what you do know.

    This is the actual wording of the first poll. A massive 1062 Americans were polled

    Do you think President Trump’s response to the demonstrations around the country has ____
    • Mostly decreased tensions
    • Mostly increased tensions
    • Unsure
    Results were 18/67/15


    In no way, shape or form does that give any indication of how many of those 1062 support the protesters over Trump or what that even may mean on June 2-3

    It only gives a guide to how many of those 1062 think Trump's response to the protesters increased or decreased tensions. Doesn't even indicate how many think that might be a good or bad thing

    Your usual tactic of adding 1/2 dozen links you probably didn't read past the headline to try make out any of those links that don't actually have to do with the point you are making, hold more weight

    The Republicans are in jeopardy of losing the Senate, a possibility that once seemed remote.

    Current polling is showing 51 U.S. Senate seats Democrat, 47 Republican.

    Polling is showing Texas to be a swing state in 2020.

    The last Democrat president to win Texas was Jimmy Carter in 1976.

    Texas has gone Republican in every presidential race after 1976.

    Texas has 38 electoral votes, second highest in the country.
