US Politics Thread

Billionaire US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross has suggested that the unpaid federal workers should take out loans to make ends meet while the shutdown continues.

Donald Trump’s commerce secretary is facing criticism for saying he doesn’t “understand why” unpaid government workers are turning to food banks, suggesting that they should take out loans instead.

Wilbur Ross – a self-proclaimed billionaire and one of the richest members of Trump’s cabinet – was asked about federal workers turning to places like homeless shelters for food donations as the partial government shutdown drags on into its second month.

Isn't it only temporary though? He's threatening to shutdown govt again if they don't support the wall. Not that it is actually a wall according to Kellyanne Conway :ROFLMAO:

He's lost. His base have turned. Ann Coulter has called him the biggest wimp President ever. He can't shut it down again. Pelosi has proven too strong for him. Another shutdown just ends the same way, and he just can't face that.

This could be the beginning of the end.
 
Coulter turning is massive actually - it's public high profile proof that fewer are now forgiving him for the BS and have lost patience.

He still has more support than he deserves, but month by month it is dwindling thankfully.

I just hope this is the turning point with the cockfucks who support him and they realise he's a lying charlatan.

His only out now is National Emergency and that is fraught with pitfalls of its own if he goes that way.

The great negotiator is backed into a corner. He'll rebound to some degree as ***** like that do, but he's lost ground he won't get back.
 
It's about 50/50 so far. Half his supporters are saying they won't vote for him in 2020, the others are doubling down, with some weird fantasy that he is playing 3D Chess.

At 36% approval rating, he really can't afford to lose any votes.
 
Well to be fair to Trump he did call it

Trump, self proclaimed genius, only got into Wharton Business College because Freddie Trump, his elder brother got his Dad, Fred Trump to build them a $25 million library.
He, Donald claims to have graduated at the top of his class but, he isn't listed as a graduate in the class rolls of 1968.
A professor who had D.Trump as a student in 1968 said and I quote, "He, (Trump), was the worst student I've ever had, he came here thinking he knew it all and did no work".
 
Trump is the laziest President of all time.
On a buzy day he starts at 11:00 a.m. His normal starting time is 14:30 p.m.
The idiots around him are doing the work, idiots like Stephen Miller and Jared Kushner.
