Dumbastheycome Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 33 minutes ago, Dtrump said: The other countries sell more to the USA by mega dollars than they buy. You have it mixed up. To exclude another country from the USA market is to put that country out of business there is no replacement for the USA economy - it's too big. An economy in overall productive decline and propped up by zero interest rates and prolific production of paper "money". "Selling" to the USA in economic reality requires the USA to have true equity in the value of the $US. The people of the USA have let themselves be sold out. Now is crunch time. Now is real world time. You think Trump is of the real world? It is the supremist attitude of the USA that is now at question. The global danger is whether or not that is solved by global humanitarian concerns or simple minded greed for wealth for an elite minority. "Now" is for the USA to prove it is a protector or an adversary in in its own interest only. Given its record in dominerence and invasiveness it is hard to imagine it will take any conciliatory course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FED will raise interest >> market crash>> and blame it on DT. Markets need to stand on their own feet, whatever that means for valuations. Stimulus is necessary in emergency situations but it should not be relied on to enrich small percentages of the population to the detriment of the remaining population.

Who are you going to trade with when the entire world says <deleted>!! Growing number of countries do not want to accept the families. Not Trump their problem, but e.g. a money without real value, Oil Dollar, the almost compulsory inflation and the sky-rocketing debt, supported and financed by some "unfair countries". Billions should work for the unjustified enrichment of some families. It may be populist but I think a lot of people agrees. The best advantage of this election probably that America will wake up finally Edited November 9, 2016 by Honthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiKT Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 1 hour ago, Dtrump said: Lets say I make cars and the price of labor is $50.00 hour. I can get the same car made in Mexico for $10.00 an hour. If the US government gave me a tax break to produce the cars so that the net dollar amount was the same I would stay in the USA. The government would recoup the dollars from the taxes of the laborers and they money they spent in America and not getting welfare. This is not rocket science. The only reason the companies move to Mexico is the Mexicans pay the American politicians not to give tax breaks to the auto companies to stay in America. Or there are tariffs. I believe the EU imposes a 54% tariff on dairy products. If I was Trump I'd get them to stop that or else. Lets say if America could make cars it would be called Germany!

George FmplesdaCosteedback Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 The American style of democracy has as many faults as all the others. It was never a good choice, but Obama was hopeless, Clinton would just have been more of the same. Trump should be good news for the Brits anyway. Thai language subtitles on the Thai TV news coverage of the US election today referred to Donald Trump as "Donu Trum". If they can't even get that right there is little hope English will improve here any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan....the weak leader of the house who turned his back on Trump and disowned him! Couldn't say enough about him today and thanking him for their increases in the Senate and House of Reps.

It's essentially tied and even that's debatable in Trump's favor when you consider all the fraudulent ballots likely sneaked in by the Democrats in their stronghold states Neither of the two won a majority of the popular vote. Neither. Due to Libertarians, Green Party, & others getting about 6M votes combined. Moreover, this isn't the first time a US president has been elected on the basis of electoral vote rather than popular vote (and not the second, not the third ... the sixth time in fact going all the way back to John Quincy Adams in 1824!) If you were to apportion the electoral votes in this election evenly among those actually casting ballots, about 25 electoral votes (out of the total 538, 270 being required to win) would've gone this time to the Libertarian and Green Party candidates. Under the Constitution, if no candidate wins the majority of the electoral votes, the issue actually goes to the House of Representatives where the majority Republican party would've almost certainly elected Trump anyway. But if instead you were to hold a run-off election between the top two finishers, it becomes a question of those Libertarian & Green Party voters. The Libertarians this time got a little over 4M votes; the Green Party about 1.2M - almost 3.5:1 in favor of the Libertarians. The Libertarian ticket consisted of two former Republican governors. So draw your own conclusions about the probable outcome of a runoff if there were to have been one. So much for the soon-to-be-heard, always-half-baked, wingnut (and foreigners with zero understanding of the US federal system) whining about the electoral college.

You can laugh at me I didn't think Trump had a chance. Never liked Hillary but didn't think there was a snowball's chance in hell of Trump winning. so glad we don't have to hear that awful woman for much longer. Some of the Hillary supporters that are being bitter and resentful may be able to accept the facts and take the advice Obama gave to Trump not long ago...
