Let’s not forget about NAFTA - wasn’t that Clinton ?


I'll never forget what Perot said about NAFTA - "giant sucking sound."

It killed the sock industry on Sand Mtn in Alabama.

I know alot of farmers, and have never heard one say the cost of repairing equipment was the reason they weren't trying to put more land in production.


I know a farmer who stopped growing cotton and focused on corn and soybean cause keeping the John Deere cotton picker repaired was expensive. Plus it always broke down during harvest. Seems only John Deere dealer can work on JD equipment and must use the OEM parts. Plus cotton gins are becoming rare.

Playing Trump's Victory speech at a No Kings rally is GOLD. Like to see more of that. High jacked.

Saying this after quitting on your team


Bruce was 65 years old when he stepped down. Retirement age for many working people. He put in 10 years at Auburn. Coaching at that level is highly stressful.

FDR

Edit: Y’all seriously think the president that took office during the Great Depression and led the US through WW2 didn’t face more stress than Trump?


FDR knew what he was getting into with the Great Depression. His family actually discouraged him for taking on the job fixing the country. His family was wealthy and prestige and felt it was the poor people's problem. FDR was not back stabbed like Trump. If anything he did the back stabbing. Hitler did not just appear over night.

George Washington went through a lot more than Trump. He lost a lot of bloody battles


That was before GW was president. With that war logic, Eisenhower went through hell during WW2. D-day for one.

The Deep State had dirt on Nixon and used it to get him to take us off the Gold Standard. After that they Water Gated his arse out of office.


And Nixon had to deal with Vietnam left over from LBJ and his cronies. They said Nixon didn't want to be remembered as the first president to lose a war.

Nixon should have said we achieved our objective and had us out by 1970. Second he should have come clean on Watergate from day one and had he, I heard many supports of his at the time would have brushed it off. He was paranoid.

In Trump's case, no past living presidents have given him support. They have distanced themselves from him.
Bruce Pearl rethinking retirement. Gap year got him recharged.

Trump wants an off ramp and the Israelis might be the x factor that screws that up for him.


I'm wondering that also. He might not have the votes in congress to get the $200 billion Pete wants. So ending it early can save face.

re: Robert Mueller was a corrupt scumbag

They took 22 months chasing after NOTHING, and they knew there was nothing there


Yet they were milking the tax payers to the tune of $32 million.

From CNBC PUBLISHED FRI, AUG 2 2019:
The nearly two-year special counsel investigation of Russian election interference led by Robert Mueller cost nearly $32 million in total....

The majority of Mueller’s overall costs — $2.45 million — came from paying his staff, the report shows.

I wonder how much some were getting paid by the hour to sit and do nothing.

Should have let it hit since the UK was there and they are NATO. Use that to drag them in the war. Modern day Pearl Harbor.
WEN Wendy's has been dropping. Around $7 a share, they still pay a divy.
I can smell the corndog from my computer.
How many troops is Israel planning to commit along with the US?

Underrated.

He knew what it took to get females roused up in a sexual way with his lyrics and music. Panties dropping music.
So they want someone to move all the furniture into the house. Once there then they arrange the furniture.
Saying Iran is no threat is like telling Wal Mart management that shoplifters are no threat to them.
Maybe they can finally get some modern cars. And cigars for us.

Yes.

When I lived around Daytona Beach 25 years ago I had a pawn shop owner tell me it was a busy time of year for them kid pawing stuff for beer money.

He told me high school and college girls would buy a gold chain on daddy's credit card at a jewelry store then pawn it for beer money. If daddy asked to see the gold chain they'd lie and tell them it fell off in the ocean while swimming. Girls are good about lying to cover their tracks.
