You can't have high government officials talking without their briefs, in case they get caught with their trousers down. Besides, how is Trump to know what foreign policy is unless they tell him. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

I've heard only one production line was moving, not the factory. And a UAW deal kept it here until 2019. I'll see if I can find a source. ETA: Found this - http://www.npr.org/sections/th...oduction-in-kentucky

These bureaucrats and pearl clutchers are in for a long 4 years...Trump is a businessman, used to moving at a very fast clip and getting things done. Sitting for a multi day briefing for a 30 minute meeting with a peer is not going to fly. The best they can hope for is a 5 minute, bullet point list of high points right before the meeting - if that. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Can you imagine dimwits Marie Harf or Jenn Psaki briefing Trump? It would be like SNL speaking of dimwits, Elizabeth Warren said this: “You know, Americans are angry about a federal government that works for the rich and powerful and it leaves everyone else in the dirt. Donald Trump knows that. He talked a good game during the campaign and he promised to end corruption. He promised to drain the swamp and after one week we’ve seen what Donald Trump’s promise means—nothing . His word, his promise to the American people is worth nothing. Well, Mr. President-elect, let me be clear. I’m ready to fight on behalf of the millions of Americans you have lied to. That includes the millions who voted for you and the millions who didn’t.” Warren held a leadership position in zero senate committees. She introduced zero bills that became law in 2015. How much good has Warren ever done in draining the swamp? | |||

Warren is the pond scum on the underbelly of the skink that's buried in the swamp mud. | |||

Given the reality in the state department, just how would they "advise" Trump? State has proven over the last years that they are corrupt and have little idea of what their real job responsibilities might be. Besides, AIR, they all are responsible to the nation's chief executive. Were I in his position I would ignore most anything that came out of that mess until it had been cleaned up. And cleaning up would involve mass terminations of employment. Elk There has never been an occasion where a people gave up their weapons in the interest of peace that didn't end in their massacre.

Oh, I'll definitely get in on that as well. However, what I'm really aiming to get in honor of our new President-Elect is a Marlin Model 1895SBL.

Yet based on Abe's comments he seems to be very confident that Mr. Trump is going to be a good leader and seems to be looking forward to working with him. Hmmm, maybe Japanese people like straightforward plain speech too instead of the stuff out of a back end of a horse that usually comes out of politicians. Who knew? | |||

Exactly right. Trump and his supporters are racist, misogynists, bigots...but Keith Ellison who is a radical Muslim with direct ties to Farrakhan is the face that's going to revive the Democrat party? Do these hypocrites even know what it means to be a racist, misogynist, or a bigot? It's comical to the point of absurdity.. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

It doesn't matter. You guys know the press was going to do this, or you should have known. You know that congenital idiots and complete frauds like Elizabeth Warren would be making ridiculous claims about Trump before he's even sworn in, or you should have known. Guys, I don't want to open this thread and see a bunch of stuff about this entirely predictable behavior. Keep it to a minimum in this thread. "Elizabeth Warren said..." Uh uh, Don't want to see it, gentlemen, not in this thread,. Everyone here- everyone- should have known the idiots were going to keep spewing their idiotic garbage. Spare us this crap. I'm not asking. I'm saying this is the way it's going to be in this thread. Savor the victory, and save your indignation for people with triple digit IQs. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

Which is one of the main reasons we should go nuclear on these folks in the legislature and courts. We will NEVER again have such an opportunity. They have clearly shown their disdain for this Country, its people, and the Constitution. Its time we took off the gloves. Vanquish these idiots. Drive them into the dustbin of socialist failures. I want to see Reid and Pelosi's faces on milk cartons in the Senate cafateria. -------------------------------------- "There are things we know. There are things we dont know.

Good point, it is unlikely we will have such an opportunity. However, best to think ahead so that future votes are not lost. Try to keep this strong position for a long time. -c1steve | |||

How would you propose to accomplish that? These people are there because their constituents vote them in. Short of some appalling ethics scandal, substance abuse, dalliances with a person inadequately clothed, etc. they are there as long as they want, for life, maybe. Every now and then, you get lucky, and find cash in the freezer, or some financial improprieties. Operations like Abscam lose their attraction if tried too often. Short of things like that, you are stuck with these fools. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||
