LD0506 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Quote Trump blocks women's March in DC. "Massive omnibus blocking permit" filed by Trump - no protest for months Love to see 100K women just show up, not organized at all, just conspicuously wearing "Not Mine!" attire mingling into the coronation. That ought to make for some good optics when the trolls treat 'em like Bull Connor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedskinsFan44 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 47 minutes ago, twa said: releasing it? no Should the state AG sue them? It was already being released into the environment, the contractor screwed up and made it all come out at once. How about suing the company that left the mess behind for the government to clean up? How about all of the other abandoned mines with the same conditions? The whole thing is rally a prime example of why we need the EPA and how business gets away with passing on unaccounted for costs to society. add: I would compare it to blaming the guy who stomps on the burning bag of poo. Bad move, but if you don't you still have a burning bag of poo on your porch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilmer17 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I think the discussion (both here and in the broader public forum) show how truly effed we are as a nation. People are happy about some of the Trump picks SIMPLY BECAUSE they piss off the people they believe are the left wing enemy. You know, the Social Justice Warriors, College Professors, Media, Hollywood Elite etc etc. Or, people are completely distraught over the picks because they insist on taking the most possible extreme vision of what they might do in their positions. Today I'm reading and hearing people ****ing about Trump remaining on as Exec Producers of the Apprentice. So effin what. Were those people also enraged when the Obama's were earning royalties on their books? As I've said before in this thread. The Pruitt pick is horrible. Dangerous even. But the rest of them? They're right wing people who are going to bring the right wing slant on whatever Dept they are leading. It wouldnt matter what GOPer had won, the next Atty General was NEVER going to run the Justice Dept like Holder and Lynch have over the last 8 years.

TheGoodBits Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 My Trump-voting previously insuranceless father in law injured his shoulder and signed up for an nice ACA plan with govt subsidies for $400/mo.

LadySkinsFan Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Well, he'll not have that nice ACA policy for long, thanks to his vote. Or he'll pay a lot more for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Typical Tighty-Righty response. The EPA screws up one time and they are then useless and should be dismantled. Corporations intentionally pollute the environment for decades and lie about the impact and thus we should trust them more! Bravo twa...seriously bravo Why in the heck should we trust corporations to police themselves? What have they EVER done to earn such gracious latitude?

No Excuses Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I am not surprised or really angry about any of these picks. This is exactly what I expected when he won. My only hope is that the Bernie people see this and realize that both parties are not the same and that elections have consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're kidding, right? The Berners are already smugly wrapped in schadenfreude, they seem to think the country deserves this for not letting them have their way.

Rskins06 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I come on this thread and look at the reactions to Pres-Elect Trump's cabinet picks to ease my mind. As long as liberals and progressives (one and the same...I guess) are unhappy about the picks, lets me know he is on the right path! What did you really expect? Seriously! Did you think he would appoint liberals or bring in someone who supports liberal and progressive beliefs? This election was a mandate on current policies, shouldn't come as a surprise to most of you. 2010, lost the house, 2012, lost the Senate, almost 75% of states have republican governors, now, GOP have house, senate, majority of Governors, choice for SCOTUS AND now the White House. Even better, the flailing Democratic Party kept Nancy Pelosi in power! With 2018 around the corner and Democrats having to defend 25 seats in the Senate, GOP is 2 yrs away from Super Majority in both houses. If the Dems become obstructionists, that could backfire on them big time. Your only hope is if Pres Trump fails, if he gets 50% of his promises accomplished, he will be re-elected. If he fails, well, then the Democrats will have another opportunity. I didn't support President Obama, BUT, I never wished him to fail. If the President fails, America fails and NOONE should wish that on ANY President. I didn't want HRC elected, but had she won, I would not hope for her failure as that only hurts the country! , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
