What really bugs a lot of people about Trump is that he has pulled out of the Paris Accords. The US is a major polluter and the only country on the planet NOT signed up to try and do something about it. All those eminent scientists may just conceivably be "crying wolf" but can we risk destroying our only and beautiful planet on one man's uneducated guess ? The ice caps are melting, the Great Barrier Reef is 70% dead already and he is deliberately putting the planet at great risk. Past a certain point it will be irreversable and Earth will become the same as Venus - molten.
https://www.cnbc.com/2018/07/16/put...russian-leader-plays-trump-like-a-fiddle.html Putin nemesis Bill Browder: Russian president is playing Trump and the US 'like a fiddle' President Trump is being “played” by Russia President Putin, noted Kremlin critic and Putin nemesis William Browder says. Putin is a “very clever man" who has been preparing for this summit for months, Browder adds. Trump’s public statements have been “awful and unpleasant.” However, he noted that the president is surrounding himself with people like Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., who are “completely clear eyed about what a criminal and monster Vladimir Putin is.” Browder, a longtime target of Putin’s, was called out by the Russian president during the post-meeting news conference on Monday for allegedly making money illegally and contributing to Hillary Clinton. Putin said if Russia cooperates with the U.S. then the Americans should cooperate with Russia and help them prosecute foes, including Browder. Browder denied the charges and said he never contributed to any U.S. candidates, noting that he is not an American citizen. “Vladimir Putin and his regime have accused me of serial killing, of being a CIA, MI-6 agent and about a thousand other things,” he said. “He’s kind of unhinged in these accusations. The White House didn’t immediately return a request for comment on Browder’s remarks. Trump is making Russia great again and America weak. Money and his ego are all that is important for Trump. And pussies of course...
this thread has turned into a re-education for the brain washed.... sorry, not just you, too many people. look at the big fireball in the sky, look up solar cycles and milankovitch cycles... CO2, especially man made CO2, hardly moves the needle on any warming/cooling. the whole thing is a money grab, while you are 'trying to do something', Al Gore is flying private jets and laughing all the way to the bank with $300m he made off from this scam. open your eyes and wake up.... again like I said, the left is full of conflicts.... do what I say not what I do, that type of thing... keep people on the plantation while they get mega rich. #walkaway
Defending the indefensible. It's Trump who is doing the brain washing and getting even richer. Poor blue collar workers have been under the American dream philosophy since the Thirties. Brutes like Henry Ford and his hatchet man Bennett squashed unionism during the Great Depression. This was made even worse by exactly the same tactics of tariffs that Trump is re-using today. It failed then and will probably fail again.
so you refuse to get un-washed... if want to stay on topic and come clean on the Paris thing... we can certainly move on to other topics. I am not saying the right is not guilty of brain washing... but let's go 1 topic at a time. or, I take the lack of response on Paris as a concession.. and that's fine... any reasonable person, after some study, will reach the same conclusion. in another thread I did talk about the 'blood sucking nature' of capitalism https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/printing-money.322951/page-4#post-4690380 post #32. that's why I keep asking people to join the ride... you have to take advantage of the system... that's the only way to happiness.
If you read your link, Bush had the highest rating. They discount 9/11 for trump to claim the high. The atlanta fed link is informative, although they appear to be on the high side of forecasts. Woulda, coulda, shoulda, it's not like he hasn't brought on the negative coverage himself. Obamacare was not repealed through law. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/4/5/17198362/obamacare-enrollment-2018-trump-sabotaging
Sure, everyone has an opinion, some based on facts and a lot that is not. Climate science is pretty complex. To bust the skeptical myths that you are promoting in regards to the climate, you might want to reconsider as you say 'brainwashing'. Human's through a lifetime of experiences, have a mind containing a morass of conflicting and inaccurate beliefs, that seldom get updated and could use a wash. There might be better sources out there, and this one gets the job done. https://skepticalscience.com/argument.php The details in the link are substantial.
true - a war situation is an outlier. yes, atlanta tends to overestimate, which I did state originally. not woulda coulda... these lefty MSM has an agenda against the potus... negative coverage even if he became a saint. will the tax bill was the law and it took out individual mandates. the point is the same.... lots of good stuff going on.. (unless you completely missed the equity run, or are not participating in the economy), yet the haters have to deny all that to keep the narrative going... denial, conflict, hatred, more denial... a self feeding vicious cycle.
