What did they expect to happen then?
Anyone who didn't vote and complains has no right to, same as those who voted 3rd party as a protest against Clinton.
RosbifAre any of the protests in areas Trump won? The ones I have seen have been in places Hillary won, and democrats always win, making a vote there somewhat pointless. Which I guess is kind of the point they are protesting.
.MASSHOLE.same as those who voted 3rd party as a protest against Clinton.
.MASSHOLE.. Choosing a known-white supremacist isn't a good look.
CampeadorDesperation, thy name is masshole.
.MASSHOLE.So you deny Stephen Bannon is a wife-beating, racist, sexist, white supremacist? You think it is a good idea to put him on his advisory team?
Oh boy.
CampeadorHey Robby Mook, the election is over, you can cool it with all the leftist buzzwords you read on the Huffington Post now. Or don't, all the buzzwords and Hitler comparisons in the world couldn't stop the election of Donald Trump.
And yes, the fact that the cry-bullies on the left are throwing temper tantrums proves that he was a great choice.
Have fun with your Muslim Brotherhood DNC chairman.
.MASSHOLE.White Nationalism.
CampeadorThe new favorite buzzwords of the Left, I expect I'll be hearing a lot of if from the sore losers.
How do you feel that the DNC is about to be handed off to a man who's trip to Mecca was funded directly by the Muslim Brotherhood, and who still maintains direct ties with them?
Do you know what the Muslim Brotherhood stands for?
"Antisemitism, anti-feminism, xenophobia, racism, etc"
So what else have you got?
.MASSHOLE.But we both know you're too uneducated to refute those economic points above.
.MASSHOLE.Christ you are so thick.
I am not a registered Democrat nor am I a Democratic voter. I am independent, so I couldn't give a flying FUCK about who the DNC does or does not appoint as chair.
Know what Putin's Russia does?
CampeadorAnd yet I still have more degrees, and more advanced degrees, than you do.
You might want to try a different line of attack besides this limp dick liberal "I'm more educated than you" nonsense.
.MASSHOLE.You always try to change to subject.
I'm waiting for you to address actual policy points. You just keep deflecting though.
And I don't think that CC degree means much. Sorry.
And that masters (not even sure what it's in, for all I know it's English) evidently hasn't done you much good for any sort of critical thinking or analysis.
CampeadorAnd you're the perfect example of what happens when a victim of fetal alcohol syndrome gets put through half a million dollars of private schooling.
Without all that money buying you "connections", you'd probably be the assistant manager at a fast food joint.
.MASSHOLE.You think it is a good idea to put him on his advisory team?
.MASSHOLE.Still avoiding the question I posed.
CampeadorYes, he's a great choice.
Now, being honest for once, you being a Sharia sympathizer and all, how to you feel about the DNC (and, essentially, the Democrat Party) being led by a man who is all but a card-carrying member of the Muslim Brotherhood?
.MASSHOLE.Don't care who leads it since it is not my party.
.MASSHOLE.Still avoiding the question I posed.

CampeadorRight.
S.J.Wlol the only people to post that conspiracy theory are that shitstain "news" site breitbart or however the fuck you spell it. Off course you love Breitbart because you have the intelligence of a three year old and swallow everything it says on there.
McNocheFuck off you fucking loser
.MASSHOLE.And I have told you my stance already on the DNC. Don't care who leads it since it is not my party.
.MASSHOLE.Can't answer it? Not shocked.
CampeadorHow can I have a serious discussion with someone as dishonest as you?
.MASSHOLE.I'm asking you about economics, not personal beliefs, ethics, or morals. We obviously differ there.
But it keep deflecting. It's obvious you don't know.
CampeadorTo be honest, I didn't even bother read it yet.
CampeadorBreitbart is great, they broke the story on the 1000+ sexual assaults that took place in Cologne on NYE when all the mainstream press were attempting to bury it.
Perhaps you should spend less time "swallowing" the outlets that led you to believe that only 18 muslims were responsible for either sexually assaulting or raping over a thousand German girls in one night.
S.J.Wid trust having a drink with Bill Cosby more than I trust breitbart

Hey, someone with a higher degree agrees with me! What do you know? And someone with a PhD in Economics agrees with my statement involving a appreciating dollar as well!
McNocheOh look, another work day of MassCockinhishole gabbing the none all day. Your employer must cherish the focus and drive that you bring to the office daily.
.MASSHOLE.I mean he did hire me for my economic knowledge....and that is economics. But hey, I don't expect you to understand that, you just enjoy trolling on a skiing forum.

CampeadorSo for Brexit, a depreciating currency is a disaster!
And for the U.S., an appreciating currency is a disaster!
So which one is it? I'm inclined to get into this deeper argument with you, but I also know that you frequently recycle the words of others and pass them off as your own. So honestly, I cannot be sure if I'm arguing against you, or the NYT, or some liberal Keynesian economist.
You've certainly proved apt at stealing my own words and passing them off as your own even within the confines of just this thread.
To give you the short answer, it is this:
The projections you are attempting to make (and those you regurgitate) are based on a situation of ceteris paribus (all other things being equal), essentially that all other variables will remain constant.
Should the interest rise (as it most certainly needs to) then domestic savings will increase. With a better business environment (lower corporate taxes, less regulation), I would expect domestic investment to also increase. You also assume that lower corporate taxes will mean less tax revenue, which isn't certain, it could easily generate more revenue (if the loopholes are close). Therefore, the need for foreign investment (which I assume also includes the Chinese buying U.S. debt), becomes much less important. Recently, the Chinese have been offloading U.S. debt, yet the trade deficit remains high. Also, the ability for US companies to bring their money back into the United States will further diminish the need for foreign injections of capital from countries like China.
If policies are implemented to hold China accountable for their tariffs on U.S. goods, and their currency manipulation, the trade deficit with them will fall, regardless of the stronger U.S. dollar. Also, as you frequently like to misrepresent, trade deficits aren't necessarily bad when they're a result of free trade between equal trading partners. Between equal trading partners, trade deficits and surpluses tend to diminish over the long term. The fact that this has not happened with countries like China shows that the U.S. and China are not equal trading partners.
Also, I know Trump's spending projections come from the Congressional Budget Office (as far as I can tell), but it all seems very premature. Not to mention, this is the same Congressional Budget Office that argued that Obamacare would save the government money, I question their methods (despite how impressed you may be with all their credentials). For them to say that Trump will add almost $20 trillion to the deficit in 8-10 years is laughable.
CampeadorAnd now the Democrats want to put a muslim with direct ties to the muslim brotherhood in charge of the DNC.
You can't make this shit up.
foolmetwiceThis is gross. I went to school with the mans kids. Keith's a great guy and has been an even better advocate for the 5th district, his approval ratings are off the charts. I don't know what his religion has to do with his ability to be a public servant. In my opinion he's the greatest politician to come from Minnesota since Paul Wellstone, and his politics are quite similar to Wellstone's as well, as is his grassroots base.
