Trump Thread

[Xiahou]

That brand of identity politics is a component of the American Political left co-culture. Altering it is a cultural change process and well past the ability of any government appointee to do more than nudge a bit.

She could at least undo some of the Title IX abuse that was pushed out during the Obama administration.

The TRUE 'free market fetishist' would assert that mandated education itself should be abolished, and that it should be each parent's decision to educate their children or not and it should be their own financial decision as to how to fund that education if they do so.

We already had this conversation Seamus...in the early 1900s.

There is a multiquote function you know.



Primarily Democrat senators who arent in trump's interest to woo, what with all but a few being unwilling or incapable or of cooperating with the current administration at this point.

And Republican's didn't obstruct the basic functions of government during Obama's entire term?

I agree. Women's sports are boring. Why are we funding this garbage.

You're a nerd.

Also Spelling was an awful Edu. Secretary. The woman was one of the principal people behind the biggest piece of unfunded government overreach since Nam. Why do we want to return to bad people? What kind of relativism is that? The usual 10th amendment peanut gallery is all "what could go wrong with the federal government handing out mass vouchers?".

Devos made her money from freaking Amway. That's a pyramid scheme. I can think of no better person to hand out federal monies tied to education.

i understand their are a litany of problems with the education system that money can't fix. Everyone has seen the studies were there is a point where money stops helping. However, that does not mean this woman gets to remake the system is her own image because she is king of cash mountain.

Trump's also a twit, but has managed to do a few good things as president. So, who knows?

This is what's going to be his downfall. Can't separate himself from his money. Can't even be Clinton low key about it.

You "dance with the one who brung you." It is his aura of money and "always finds a way to win" that is the source of his gravitas. If he downplays them, he downplays himself.

Don't change the topic. You made a comment about Democrats "unwilling or incapable or of cooperating" with Trump. Do you have an issue with this?

[Greyblades]

"Dont change the topic" Says the man who's response at the statement "it's not in turmp's interest to woo democrats" is to go "What about the republicans and obama".

It's a simple question. You still have not answered.

I knew I had been feeling a little old and creaky lately. What was it you said that made me stop arguing and let T.R. get on with it? I have gaps in my memory these days.

When (or by whom) can the prestige of public office and the reach of its platforms be used to further the interests of the individual or related parties?
