Miles Davis' soul is deeper than any ocean!

I'm only comfortable with the facts as we know them: - US economy booming - Employment up - Wages up - Donald Trump is president

Economy booming virtually everywhere, thanks to president Trump

Economy booming in America under president Trump.

Barrack who?

Such comparisons do not hold when you consider the controlling/political influence of OPEC. In nuclear there is no similar comparator.

They tried to screw over an honourable man, how shocking and sad. Time for Justin Trudeau's Liberal House of Wax to go up in flames.

Not saying I like Andrew Scheer or the CPC in every way, but they are exactly the kind of political party Canada needs. Not too fucking extreme. Anyway off topic

Thanks. Would I make a good lawyer? This missile strike provoked a strong negative reaction from Russia- The Russian President′s spokesperson said the U.S. strike was "an act of aggression against a sovereign country violating the norms of international law under a trumped-up pretext", which "substantially impaired Russia–United States relations". The Russian foreign ministry denounced the strike as being based on false intelligence and against international law, suspended the Memorandum of Understanding on Prevention of Flight Safety Incidents that had been signed with the U.S., and called an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council. Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov compared the strike to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Russian prime minister Dimitry Medvedev said the attack placed the U.S. on the cusp of warfare with Russia. Russia has sent the frigate Admiral Grigorovich to the east Mediterranean in response, and warned that the US strike could have "extremely serious" consequences. link So either this was a cover-up or the US president is not entirely beholden to Mr. Putin. The rest is hard to understand because of all the noise in the media. It's all just lies, lies and again more lies. The poor public has no way of knowing what to believe anymore, but must believe something... and that choice is often based purely on partisanship. Truth and facts are now replaced by belief, which is of course in each of us malleable. That is the crime being perpetuated here, your honour...

Certainly there could be. Such a person, if they exist would likely not thrive, they would soon be isolated and become ineffective. Too much virtue not being a good thing, in politics. I'm no expert in US history or presidents, but the name Jimmy Carter comes to mind.

What I see in that data is that wars and crises create big spikes of support for a president. Trump has not engaged much in using the US military. No serious wars going on, no battles (so far...). No spikes. So does that mean according to this data, if a president has high level of support, they are "good"?

Nonsense. I'm very conscientious with my punctuation. Case in point:

Agreed. Someone call the cops

Not enough cops. They're too busy pulling people like me over for a sticker violation.

Crime is not a big deal, among liberals.

Apparently. But he doesn't care, remember? His country's gone to hell in a hand-basket already.

Because it's not the US, it was the industrial revolution that destroyed us. Blame the Brits for that one, too. It's the Brits you want.

I do not hate Justin Trudeau... I hate the System that created him!

He was given a majority.

I did explain that the number 20,000 is only an account of people crossing at illegal points of entry, not those detained at official border crossings. In my stimation it could be 50,000, which is a ten-fold increase since 2016. A timely article confirms this. Watchdog sees growing backlog in asylum cases as Conservatives pledge to fix refugee system "We project that if the number of new asylum claimants remains steady at around 50,000 per year, the wait time for protection decisions will increase to five years by 2024 — more than double the current wait time," reads the report from interim Auditor General Sylvain Ricard, released Tuesday. This tells us two things: - The number is around 50,000 per year - The wait time to have a refugee claim reviewed is currently around 2 years.

Approval ratings going up is now condemnation. You liberals crack me up with your inverted logic. The fact that liberals are totally stunned and don't know what to do about President Trump is a total failure on their part, and is pathetic to watch. Trump has screwed your brains through the meat grinder.

Let's hope some of it comes our way.

If you mean in terms of money, I say it depends on if you look short term or long term. But there is always net gain for everyone; which comes from the energy of the labour force and the use of natural resources. Relevance to thread topic?

I have no idea what you're getting at. If you have a point to make, let's hear it. Better yet, how about stick to the thread topic, fella? That would be great because we're trying to have a discussion here.
