You mean tv reality show, Biggest Loser?



How badly does o d want to tweet, “I didn’t really lose all that money, I just told the IRS that I did for tax purposes like all business geniuses” right now?

Shrub the George (bush) had very little trouble getting elected. Was it only 8 years ago when the S & L scandal happened, prior to his election of hanging chad. and his family was directly involved. Directly. I think everyone forgets this.

You just explained why taxes will never be cut, and spending will never go down. As long as they're doing well, any interest in fiscal restraint or "small government" goes right out the window.

Looking forward to the "landmark" deal Trump will get from China. Can I give your reaction to his deal now? Or should I wait until we hear about how awesome the pointless pending trade deal is?

The Biggest Loser

You see this? The report says that Don the Con is, literally, the Biggest Loser of All Time when it comes to reported business losses.

...and he calls it "sport". Such a Very Serious Genius.

Stay tuned on where O where he got $53 million semolians in claimed "Interest"

Interesting tactic WRT drug companies, who love to advertise and push their products.

So.....don't advertise. Problem solved. Insulin prices continue to rise. Sweet.

How about let's see some of the deregulation Republicans have been bragging about so long. Let us buy drugs from other countries.

THAT would solve the problem....or at least a huge chunk of it. And Jeff Bezos' net worth would rise 10 fold in under a year.

Second Trump Ghostwriter Says He Was Lousy at Business, Bored, and Obsessed With Carpet Swatches

HRC was "such a bad choice", but the fact remains that the man the country picked (with a big assist from his Russian mortgagors) was a guy that was "created" through fraud and a very obvious confidence game.

Don the Con is NOT, by any stretch, what he SAYS he is. That's what Con men do. This is what is almost certainly being hidden in his taxes and his school grades and all the other things he's trying desperately to hide.

"Charles Leerhsen, ghostwriter of Surviving at the Top, has written an account for Yahoo News about the time he spent observing Trump for the book. He paints a picture of a lazy, ill-tempered man who was out of his depth when it came to business. In fact, his main contribution to his businesses seemed to be choosing carpets.

Leerhsen wrote that Trump was neither terrified about the scale of his losses or, as the president claimed Wednesday, carrying out a Machiavellian plan to make sure he didn’t have to pay income tax. He was just bored.

“Trump’s portfolio did not jibe with what I saw each day—which to a surprisingly large extent was him looking at fabric swatches,” said the ghostwriter. “Indeed, flipping through fabric swatches seemed at times to be his main occupation. Some days he would do it for hours, then take me in what he always called his ‘French military helicopter’ to Atlantic City—where he looked at more fabric swatches.”

Deplorables shrug..."meh". "He sticks it to the libs so he really needs to be our president."

Pathetic

..

I voted for Kerry because he played a mans' sport at Yale. Shrub-Bush played boreball and was a cheerleader. what, circle jerk are you from, rrr?

Is this why Bloomberg won't run, because of tax returns?

Yup. They complained that the Obama administration lacked transparency but have suddenly and conveniently gone silent.

Aaaaaaand, Trump just raised tariffs on China again.

China didn't cave? Nooooo. That's un-possible.

Enjoy your more expensive goods, everyone. I'm sure China (snicker) will cave any day now.


We all know Trump was praying that China would give him some utterly pointless concession, and he could proclaim a massive victory to his fans.

"My offer is this: nothing. Not even the fee for the gaming license".


Boy, he sure is a master of the deal. I'm just blown away by how good he is at this. Personally, I'm still reeling at the genius of the new NAFTA deal, and all the untold riches heading my way because of that massive, tectonic shift in trade policy.

The good thing is----if there is a silver lining----is that all that Trump wants is to claim victory. So they can still offer him something stupid. And Trump can hype it up, because for 1/3 of America, his word is the word of the Lord. China needs to give scraps. That's all it would take.

And they still won't even do that. Whoops. Bad calculus, Trumpy-fans.
