Second, it is really hard to change regulations, especially popular regulations and the Republican agenda is really not at all popular in America; something Paul Ryan just doesn't understand because of his self-admiration. Yes, Trump, is completely uninterested in policy so, if you want him to pay attention to the environment and existential climate change, tell him Mar-a-Lago will be inundated, otherwise he will go MEGO.Jimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891331049535299222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-46929030145450543832016-11-24T01:28:55.541-05:002016-11-24T01:28:55.541-05:00Crank, there are no good options that for damn sur...Crank, there are no good options that for damn sure. The only real hope is they screw the people who voted for them enough that they actually turn out in 18 and we take back the senate, and they do all that without blowing us all to hell and don't make their damage irreversible. rclzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05866339978349617188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-64846204960543211802016-11-24T01:17:57.668-05:002016-11-24T01:17:57.668-05:00Memo to rclz,

And if you remove Pence you get Paul Ryan who is on a religious quest to stomp out Social Security and Medicare. Well, so is Pence. And Trump either is or isn't. But the point is, given the line of succession, we all should have health insurance as good as Trump's job insurance.<br /><br />Be careful what you wish for. I wish I had remembered that when, on my own blog several months ago, I said I hoped Trump would get nominated because that would mean we'd have a Democratic president.<br /><br />And now I'm so damn cranky I'm going to turn off the computer and go to bed.<br /><br />Yours etc.<br />The New York CrankThe New York Crankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04489472134701718697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-60561840865129098682016-11-24T00:33:42.547-05:002016-11-24T00:33:42.547-05:00Please, Alt-Right is a euphemism for Nazis, Neo-Na...Please, Alt-Right is a euphemism for Nazis, Neo-Nazis, White Supremacists, White Nationalists, Racist Bigots.

We just aren't going to know what the hell he does until he tries to do it and Try is the operative word because quite a few of his things are just not realistic. Even when you're king, in this country it still has to run through the senate and congress so there is no magic wand. Even executive orders only go so far.<br /><br />I still have so much rage. I snapped at a pair of Bernie supporters on Tumblr tonight who were bitching because Hillary gave in to quick, she didn't fight hard enough. Jeezus what does the woman have to do slit her wrists? <br /><br />As long as we're talking about what Trump will or won't do, here's my two cents, his poll numbers go down enough and he screws up the ethics mess that is going to be his presidency and business that the republicans in conjunction with the dems impeach him. I'm fine with this but I want it in the first two years because I want the GOP to be forced to get rid of their monster. If the dems do it on their own they'll be blaming us not him for the next 20 years. <br /><br />I'm so tired of this already it feels like the election is still not over because I'm still so angry. It's a damn good thing I don't have to wake up in a red state every morning or I'd be suicidal. <br /><br />I didn't mean for this to turn into a vent but there you have it. rclzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05866339978349617188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-78897705182092099272016-11-23T23:55:42.860-05:002016-11-23T23:55:42.860-05:00.

He has no agenda, except to make yuuge gobs of money, and be famous, and have only the "top women." (Yes, he actually used that term once.) <br /><br />Past that, he will do whatever occurs to him, or whatever somebody just whispered in his ear. Waterboarding? Good. Waterboarding? Now bad. Wall? Well a fence maybe. Or maybe not. Global warming's a hoax, unless maybe it isn't. We'll balance the budget — with enormous tax cuts for the rich. We'll round up and deport 11 million illegal aliens. Well, maybe only two million. And so it goes. Crooked Hllary's going to jail, unless she isn't because she's been through so much.<br /><br />Keep in mind that Trump's opinions, which may seem to be on the way to a change that looks positive, could bounce off a wall and come back atcha with razor-sharp minus signs. So don't count on anything. Trump policy, such as it is, is as ephemeral as a fart. The only constant is Trump incoherence. A year from now we could be living in utopia. Or in concentration camps. Some may be optimistic but not I. Not one bit.<br /><br />Yours very crankily,<br />The New York CranThe New York Crankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04489472134701718697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-57578116100675338502016-11-23T23:44:40.766-05:002016-11-23T23:44:40.766-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.The New York Crankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04489472134701718697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-69468444077483058592016-11-23T22:17:59.314-05:002016-11-23T22:17:59.314-05:00rclz, On energy, it's all about the Koch broth...rclz, On energy, it's all about the Koch brothers, but not directly, as Koch Industries gets way higher profit margins off their industrial chemicals works. So it's more getting them the raw products, which is the Why behind the death funnel that'll be coming right down from NE Albera / NW Saskatchewan provinces in western Canada, down thru the the aorta of dryland farming and ranching country in the central western States all the way to coastal Texas and Louisiana: Chemical Alley.<br /><br />Directly, it's all about Make Canada Great At Importing Raw Again. That's why Dump's talking ignorant b.s. about tearing up NAFTA: to get rid of the "[finished] goods" part of "goods and services", the things Canada & Mexico were almost as happy to get as Big Corp America. He can't do it legally, but the Dump administration is after police power & bully economics, and not remotely about The Rule of Law.<br /><br />But Dump's going to find he actually can 'will away' NAFTA. During the period while he tries to throw American weight around, he's going to find that the far smarter group of trilateral trade experts on the Canadian & Mexican sides will join together to extract punitive measures from the U.S. that were put in there as poison pills, by the last 8 U.S. presidential administrations, from Reagan's second term thru Obama's second.<br /><br />Who's gonna end up suffering the penalties? The exact same folks who voted Dump/Dence and the R ticket on November 8.<br /><br />Feud Turgidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05379322096770703017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-47971896051477671152016-11-23T21:58:44.586-05:002016-11-23T21:58:44.586-05:00Smoke and Mirrors.
