Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

Would the SCOTUS judges Trump nominated have to recuse themselves if something came before the court regarding Trump/Mueller?

better question, would RBG have to recuse herself after what she has said about Trump?

Not sure if that is a better question because the obvious answer is no.

What I'm saying is that I feel unions are doing a bigger disservice than they are helping, by helping the bad employees at the expense of good employees, and causing everyone to pay more for everything to subsidize the bad employees. I would disagree, and allow sweatshops to exist, not because I think they're a good place to work, but because the people who work there have 2 bad options either work in the tough conditions for little pay, or have not work there and starve. Every single person working there feels that working there is the lesser of the 2 evils, and you want to take away their better option. (I know it's the better option because that's the one they chose.

Says who?
I'm sure that when Unions were created the anti Union groups claimed the same thing.

I don't disagree that the unions have become too political-bloated-corrupt ,but I have no idea what would happen to these countries, if unions become a thing, and wouldn't make a statement/assumption based in a few articles that I read

What do you think an American clothing company would do if they were prohibited for importing clothing from sweatshops?

It depends. If after improving conditions it would still be cheaper then local countries they will continue to import, otherwise it's shops closed.

Make them in more developed countries?
 Make them locally with more automation?

Which would drive the prices of goods way higher (and Trump wouldn't need tarriffs..)

I'm saying sweatshops are terrible, but banning them is worse.

Again how can you say this with certainty?

So concentration camps should be kept open if the alternative is you are going to die?

What happened to you today?

it's unfortunate that the president needs to tweet this
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1014257237945176071

And it's unfortunate that there is reason for it...

Wait until the investigation is over and we will know conclusively.

While the Question is valid, I would like to know if it was ever brought up before Trump.

It’s a good question but they can only at most be presumed to be impartial but RBG is on record as being impartial

exactly, which means that the assumption that it would make them starve is very uncertain.

Elena Kagan should be able to help them with that.

Trump is unquestionable thew most divisive rhetorically, but Obama was more divisive tactically and politically.
