Do you know who made this comment about Donald Trump?

"Donald Trump and I did a lot of business together in the 90's and the 2000's. We created good-paying jobs, took care of our employees and made a ton of money doing it. What we built together is still thriving today, but most importantly, we remain dear friends."

Answer: [b]NO ONE. Ever.[/b]

trump is a complete failure

America has the best:
- workers and he cons them
- farmers and he lies to them
- scholars and he demeans them
- scientists and he ignores them
- people and he divides them
- allies and he alienates them

Trump sits atop the greatest resource on the planet - the knowledge retained by American experts on everything from economics to medicine to military history - yet he refuses to listen or learn because he's existentially threatened by the idea that people know something that he knows absolutely nothing about - completely over his head - so he'd rather do whatever Putin tells him to do and get his news from Fox Entertainment and Facebook. He's the easiest mark in the history of con games.

Be proud, Republicans.

"The United States will never become a Socialist country." It is becoming a dictatorship, profit before people, greed is good, "Truth isn't Truth". "I kept more promises than I made, so many promise."

"Repetition has never transformed a lie into a truth" FDR

@softspokenman Ironically? There isn't ONE Socialist in Congress.

And here's where I give a big F You to Bernie Sanders. He championed the phrase "Democratic Socialism. It's almost like he thought the American people had the capacity for nuance. That some wouldn't turn it in to the big "S" word which sits right along Communism, Marxism and all the "ism's" that freak so many people out. It was arrogant, selfish and tone-deaf. I think Progressive was the call. It speaks to what it's about. Progress.

And unfortunately, I need to disagree with FDR on that line. I think that fine Nazi Joseph Goebbels was more accurate. “Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth." We know the results of that. It's the cornerstone for dictators throughout the world.

It's also arguably, like you said, the cornerstone of this President's administration. Millions and millions are arguing false premises. They're fighting the wrong enemy. They lose so the very wealthiest can win. Lying works as a strategy. Clearly. And the internet has exploded that concept. It'll be hard to put that genie back in the bottle. I don't think we're up to the task.
