AkoEja: .
Economics simply do not work like this. The positive changes people are seen in America today cannot be due to what Donald Trump has done in just one year, this is the effect of eight years of Obama's administration's policies. We will see the changes from Trumps policy in a few years time, not now.
If people remember correctly, the economy of America was very down the first few years of Obama's administration due to the policies of George W Bush who destroyed the economy before Obama came Gbam. You absolutely nailed it. They are giving trump the kudos for the upsurge in economy not knowing that America economy was in the sewage when Obama took over from Bush W and he did a marvelous job creating over 20 million jobs and he Obama was overwhelmingly elected twice by popular and electoral votes. His ratings is still very high up till today compared to Mr Trump the old racist pig. |

It's still very surprising how some Nigerians love a racist trump who loathes people that looks like them with every cells in his bigoted body. Stockholm Syndrome I guess. PDPGuy: Sometimes, I still can’t believe Trump is my president. Cannot wait till 2020 before this clown is booted from office

Wait till the Orange a*s lickers come out of their caves spouting junk about their savior. happney65: For some reason, our year-long project analyzing, categorizing and tracking every false or misleading claim by President Trump had seemed like quite a burden in the past month. Well, the numbers are in and now we know why: In the past 35 days, Trump has averaged an astonishing nine claims a day.
The total now stands at 1,628 claims in 298 days, or an average of 5.5 claims a day. That puts the president on track to reach 1,999 claims by the end of his first year in office, though he obviously would easily exceed 2,000 if he maintained the pace of the past month. (Our full interactive graphic can be found here.)
As regular readers know, the president has a tendency to repeat himself — often. There are now at least 50 claims that he has repeated three or more times.
Trump’s most repeated claim, uttered 60 times, was some variation of the statement that the Affordable Care Act is dying and “essentially dead.” The Congressional Budget Office has said that the Obamacare exchanges, despite well-documented issues, are not imploding and are expected to remain stable for the foreseeable future. Indeed, healthy enrollment for the coming year has surprised health-care experts.
ADVERTISING
Trump also repeatedly takes credit for events or business decisions that happened before he took the oath of office — or had even been elected. Fifty-five times, he has touted that he secured business investments and job announcements that had been previously announced and could easily be found with a Google search.
But with the push in Congress to pass a tax plan, two of Trump’s favorite talking points about taxes — that the tax plan will be the biggest tax cut in U.S. history and that the United States is one of the highest-taxed nations — have been moving up the list.
Trump repeated the falsehood about having the biggest tax cut 40 times, even though Treasury Department data shows it would only rank eighth. And 50 times Trump has claimed that the United States pays the highest corporate taxes (19 times) or that it is one of the highest-taxed nations (31 times). The latter is false; the former is misleading, as the effective U.S. corporate tax rate (what companies end up paying after deductions and benefits) ends up being lower than the statutory tax rate.
We also track the president’s flip-flops on our list, as they are so glaring. He spent the 2016 campaign telling supporters that the unemployment rate was really 42 percent and the official statistics were phony; now, on 33 occasions he has hailed the lowest unemployment rate in 17 years. It was already very low when he was elected — 4.6 percent, the lowest in a decade — so his failure to acknowledge that is misleading.
Fifty-seven times, Trump has celebrated a rise in the stock market — even though in the campaign he repeatedly said it was a “bubble” that was ready to crash as soon as the Federal Reserve started raising interest rates. Well, the Fed did raise rates three times since the election — and yet it has not plunged as Trump predicted. It has continued a rise in stock prices that began under Barack Obama in 2009.
Again, the president has never explained his shift in position on the stock market. But he couldn’t stop talking about it during his trip to Asia.
We maintain the database by closely reading or watching Trump’s myriad public appearances and television and radio interviews. The interviews are especially hard to keep up with, in part because the White House does not routinely post on them on its website. Moreover, Trump tends to seek out right-leaning interviewers who rarely challenge him or question him when he repeats false claims that have already been fact-checked. The interviews thus often contain a torrent of misleading claims, and we despair that supposed journalists are not confronting the president about his rhetoric.
So we were amused to see a foreign leader fact-check the president on his Asian trip. On Nov. 13, Trump met with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe when he started to repeat one of his favorite false claims that the United States has “deficits with almost everybody.”
“Except us,” interjected Turnbull.
“Except with you,” Trump agreed, adding: “You’re the only one.” He then suggested he should check the figures, but Turnbull assured him, “It’s real.”
Indeed, the United States has a goods trade surplus of $13 billion and services trade surpluses of $15 billion with Australia, largely because of a Free Trade Agreement, according to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative.
We assume Trump was joking when he said Australia was the “only one.” But for the record, the United States also has trade surpluses with the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Belgium, Singapore, Hong Kong, Chile, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, among other countries, according to the International Trade Commission.

Obviously your charred brain is not functioning like I thought. If you are sn American and you haven't a child or children anywhere outside of America, your child or children automatically get citizenship upon reprting it to the American Embassy at the country. That's what it meant to be an American born. Citizenship at birth in other countries if either of your parents is American citizen . I think they call it CRBA ( Citizen Report of Birth Abroad). So your point is moot. About the wager, like I said you are just like the lying racist pig. You want to wager a guy in Nigeria and I called you out.

PDPGuy: There is little the ACLU can do in this situation, especially if she was employed in a jurisdiction that has "at will" employment laws.
It basically means that an employer can fire you for any reason except race, religion, nationality, sexual orientation etc. Moreover, there may have been a clause in her employment contract which prohibited the act she did beside the president's convoy.
If she was employed by a government entity, then I would say she has a provable case of the government infringing her First Amendment rights. I can understand if it is written in her contract but I doubt it. I learnt that she worked for a Sub Government contractor. I think she has a good case on 1st Amendment right. Why should someone in America get fired for exercising her Freedom of Speech rights. Infact, just hearing now that her case has been taken up by some lawyers. What kind of country do we want to be if we can't criticize our leadership?. This is not Pootin Russia or any Third World country. |

TheShopKeeper: Woman Fired For Flipping Off Donald Trump's Motorcade
http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/woman-flips-off-donald-trump-fired_us_59fe0ab4e4b0c9652fffa484
A photo of Juli Briskman giving the middle finger to the president went viral. Her employer was not pleased. You may have seen this photo of President Donald Trump’s motorcade winding down a wooded road last week as a woman on a bicycle pedaled by ― giving the middle finger to Trump.
The picture, snapped by a White House photographer traveling with the president as he left his golf course in Sterling, Va., went viral almost immediately. News outlets picked up the story when it appeared in a White House pool report. Late-night talk show hosts told jokes about the encounter and people on social media began hailing the unidentified woman as a “she-ro,” using the hashtag #Her2020.
The woman’s name is Juli Briskman. Her employer, government contractor Akima LLC, wasn’t so happy about the photo. They fired her over it. I hope she get herself a good lawyer or ACLU to take up her case. No one in America loses his or her job because of his or her political opinions. I know a lot of lawyers in US will take up her case pro bono. This kinda things happens in despotic countries and not in America. The essence of 1st amendment is Critiqueing your leadership to keep them honest. |
