Can you even imagine what a socialist democrat president would do to the booming economy that President Trump and Republican policies have helped build?

Nine of the last ten U.S. recessions began with a Republican President.

Good time for you to, I don't know, shut up.

Sen. Bernie Sanders may pose as the anti-corruption candidate, but in 1983, when he was mayor of Burlington, Vermont, he created a salaried position for this then-girlfriend Jane Driscoll (who is now his wife) and reportedly never advertised the job to the public.

No trump supporter will ever have standing to lecture anyone on cronyism, nepotism, or corruption.

trump has a well documented history of screwing people out of their earned pay so it should be no surprise that the man who claims we have the “greatest economy in history” cites “national emergency and serious economic conditions” to limit federal worker pay raise to one percent.

Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg defending his stop-and-frisk policies at a 2015 Aspen Institute appearance by saying that law enforcement should target minorities “because that’s where all the crime is.”

‘TECHNOCRATIC RACISM’: Bloomberg Allegedly Advocates For Targeting Minorities In Explosive Audio

Looks like shorty wasted a lot of cash :floor:

If he’s toast shouldn’t trump be toast? Again how does any of this make trump less racist? If you want to condemn Bloomberg you must first condemn trump.

You might want to take a poll in New York City and ask people who they respect more, Trump or Bloomberg. I don’t think it would be close.

New research from Goldman Sachs shows that “the richest 1 percent of Americans now account for more than half the value of equities owned by U.S. households,” while the bottom 90 percent of the country held just 12 percent of the value of stocks.

What’s more, Goldman Sachs believes that soaring equities prices will only enable the super rich to strengthen their grip on stock market wealth“The wealthiest households have been by far the biggest driver of positive household equity demand,” the report states. “Accelerating US economic growth and rising stock prices should continue to support equity purchases by the top 1 percent.”

Exacerbating this problem, writes the Financial Times, has been the sluggish wage growth for ordinary workers.

“The widening wealth disparity has been driven by stagnant wages for many Americans, which held them back from partaking in the stock market’s gains of the past decade,” the publication writes. “Despite the dotcom collapse and the global financial crisis, the broad US stock market has climbed more than tenfold since 1990 — gains that have mostly accrued to the richest part of the population.”

Three federal prosecutors have now quit the Roger Stone case due to improper interference by trump’s consigliere.

Edit: All four career prosecutors have now resigned from the case!

No, he's not toast, at least not for that.
