Bangkok Governor Supports Congestion Charge to Curb Traffic

Trump knows how to grow the economy, he’s been there and done that before.

 

“Over the last 12 days, Wall Street has seemed "very convinced Trump is going to win… You can see it in the bank stocks, you can see it in crypto," Stanley Druckenmiller said Wednesday in a Bloomberg Television interview”.

Trump destroyed the longest period of economic expansion in US history. And it only took him 18 months after inauguration to do it.

Trump has made several moves this last year to gain support from the crypto community. The dems didnt think it was important even though an estimated 40% of adult americans own crypto. As bitcoin nears its high its an indication that the market has priced in a trump win

You attempt to convince all of us that the "economic key" is crypto currency.

 

44 minutes later you admit that you don't know anything about crypto currency! 😉 

 

Now I took freely admit that I know nothing about crypto currency. I do know that if I have 1000 units of a traditional currency, Baht, Dollars, Euro or Pounds Sterling, whether in my wallet or held in my bank account, I can go out and exchange it for goods and services to the value of 1000 units of that currency, or even, if so inclined use it to place a bet on the outcome of the US Presidential election.

 

Crypto currency?

Right!

A $400M trust fund fraudster and self-proclaimed economic genius, with six bankruptcies to his name and a track record of screwing millions from employees, contractors, and banks.

And now he's proposing tax cuts for billionaires, funded by a tariff tax on the working class. Classic!

I assume you are being sarcastic, but IMO productivity will improve without most of the managers, and I hope the cull is from their ranks and not the ones doing actual work.

Eg, the NHS would improve dramatically if 70% of managers were sacked, IMO.

So are you saying that trump never had six Bankruptcies to his name, that he never stole $2.1 million from one of his charities and was ordered to repay it (after pleading guilty to doing it) and has numerous other financial misdemeanours recorded against his name??

 

Pray tell which of the above is "leftist nonsense"?

1. Trump didn't file any personal bankruptcies. Those were companies operating under the Trump name.

2. Misappropriation isn't stealing. I have received bad legal advice from an attorney regarding an inheritance and used funds that I shouldn't have, but I wasn't stealing. My attorney told me that the funds were mine to spend. The funds were easily replaced in the estate when the use of the funds was challenged (And I wasn't accused of stealing the funds because my last name isn't Trump). Trump didn't run the charities, but he was responsible for how they operated.

 

3. Letitia James: the Queen of GET TRUMP lawfare

 

4. What you said in this post is NOT what you said in the post that I called nonsense.

"screwing millions from employees, contractors, and banks" Got any sources for this claim?

 

5. You are unaware of Trump's past tax proposal and tariffs; and you don't understand his current tax proposal and tariffs.

 

Read about the COMPANIES under the Trump name that filed Chapter 11 Reorganization:

President Trump's Bankruptcies: Just the Facts

 

You will be shocked to learn that "All of the Chapter 11 bankruptcies by Trump’s businesses were submitted via a prepackaged bankruptcy, in which a deal had been reached with the creditors before filing. "

So they were bankruptcies whichever way one looks at them........irrespective of the "prepackaged bankrupty" title you put on them?? So successful businessman trump cannot successfully run a company?  

 

And for the record..............

Trump and his foundation were forced to admit their fraud.

Trump University (also known as the Trump Wealth Institute and Trump Entrepreneur Initiative LLC) was an American company that ran a real estate training program from 2005 until 2010. It was owned and operated by The Trump Organization. Despite its name, the organization was not an accredited university or college. In 2011, the company became the subject of an inquiry by the New York Attorney General's office for illegal business practices which resulted in a lawsuit filed in August 2013.^[6] An article in the National Review described the organization as a "massive scam". (Surely not by honest Don trump??).

 

In November 2016, Trump agreed to settle a series of lawsuits related to the school for $25 million.

 

The Four Bankruptcies which resulted in tradesmen losing money/not being paid millions owed..

The Undocumented Polish Workers …. In 1991, a federal judge found Trump and other defendants guilty of conspiring to avoid paying union pension and welfare contributions for the workers. Trump eventually settled out of court, paying an undisclosed sum.

But the facts of the case were never in question: Trump’s company really did hire undocumented immigrants to build the Trump Tower. He merely argued he wasn’t aware of it, and it wasn’t his fault — even after a court ruled against him.

TRUMP HAS FILED FOR SIX BUSINESS BANKRUPTCIES and has had many failed businesses:-

The Trump Taj Mahal in 1991 

Trump Castle Hotel & Casino in 1992 and Trump Plaza Casino 1992

Trump Plaza Hotel 1992 

Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts in 2004

Trump Entertainment Resorts in 2009

 

Not forgetting many other failed businesses…..

Trumped!, Trump Steaks, Trump Network, GoTrump, Tour de Trump, Trump Airlines,
7. Trump Vodka, The New Jersey Generals, Trump Mortgage, Trump: The Game, Trump Magazine, Trump Ice and not forgetting Trump University!

The guy spent a good deal of his latest bizarre campaign rally talking about the size of the male appendage of the late golfer Arnold Palmer.

 

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that the size of Palmer's chimbo is unlikely to be a "kitchen table" issue important to most Americans.

 

I don't know the mindset of the average maga cult member, but as little respect as I have for them, I still do not think Arnold Palmer's length and girth are preeminent in their minds.

 

Now I do understand why, even if whatever tales the felon was trying to quote about how Palmer was hung are apocryphal, I can guess why such things would resonate with the felon, given what Stormy said  ("not quite freakishly small, but well below average"), but such things are probably not swing voter issues.

Whether you like it or not, trump has gone down in history as a multi-times bankrupt and a felon and it doesn't fit MY narrative, they are just the facts which you don't want to accept.

 

So why don't you order one of your Chinese made MAGA hats, then order a pair of Chinese made gold sneakers, followed by a Bible printed in China, because they will all help the American working man, won't they!

 

You are simply another rube who has joined the cult.

"A good deal of his bizarre campaign rally?" OK. Let's look at the numbers. How long was the rally, how much time was spent on Palmer's driver, and does that equate to "a good deal" of time? Your claim, feel free to prove it.
