Old chums from...oh...the 1980s, I think. It appears that Trump has enjoyed only lesser friendships, and those cannot be counted on because they are based on pleasure and usefulness. Once the pleasure and usefulness are gone so is the friendship. Our friends in the world are finding they cannot count on Trump, and that is part of the downside of his transactional approach to friendship. Washington Post reporters Michael Kranish and Marc Fisher, the co-authors of “Trump Revealed,” explain that Trump “never really had close friends” and that as far back as 1980 he said: “My business is so all-encompassing that I don’t really get the pleasure of being with friends that much, frankly.” Aristotle believed that nothing is so characteristic of true friends as wanting to spend time together, but Trump told Kranish and Fisher that he had many friends, “but they’re not friends like perhaps other people have friends, where they’re together all the time and they go out to dinner all the time.” You know, like actual friends. Trump also confirmed that his so-called friendships are based on either usefulness or pleasure when he added “Most of my friendships are business-related because those are the only people I meet. The people I meet, really, I guess I could say socially, when you go out to a charity event or something.” https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-perspec-friends-trump-enemies-allies-0607-20180606-story.html Edited November 10, 2018 by Argus Quote "A liberal is someone who claims to be open to all points of view — and then is surprised and offended to find there are other points of view.” William F Buckley

That's the danger that Stephen Harper speaks of in his book "Right Here, Right Now.......". It's an excellent read with lots of insight into how we got here and how we can move forward. It's a good read - $25 at Chapters. As for Harper, I'll say this about him...."You don't know what you've got till it's gone". 1 Quote

Palm Beach County is playing games as well. The attorney for Scott says file received from Broward cannot be opened as the file appears to be corrupted. If you don’t think the counting/ recounting over and over in Broward and Palm Beach Counties is a big deal, or an indication of corruption, just go back in time to the Norm Coleman - Al Franken Senate race, where votes (incl. illegal felon votes) for Franken almost magically kept being added until Franken won.

I wonder why American networks do not cover Canadian federal elections with equal vigour ? The CBC has now gone bonkers on the Acosta affair. Every hour of every day now they have to give their leftist liberal opinions on the war between Trump and Acosta. Why? Why should they give a chit anyway? The CBC is obvious so anti- Trump. They just cannot wait for another incident of some kind that involves Trump to be able to put in their two Canadian useless pesos. Indeed, we do not see the American news networks showing any concern at all about what goes on in Canadian politics and why should they. It is none of their business anyway like the CBC likes to make American news their business. Who cares what some CBC so called reporter or journalist has to say about American politics. The only reason why so many Canadians despise Trump so much is thanks to the Canadian leftists liberal media who has made Trump look like enemy #1. Otherwise if the Canadian media minded their own bloody business most Canadians would not give a crap about what Trump says or does. The CBC leftists liberals wanted Hillary to win. Canadians seem to give more of a chit about American politics rather than about Canadian politics thanks to the likes of the CBC. The CBC could find plenty to bitch about as to what goes on in Canada. I can find at least two stories a day that I could report on as to what our dear leaders are doing every day. But hey. Quote

Boges Posted November 14, 2018 Report Posted November 14, 2018 As all the votes are actually counted, it seems the Democrat gains are actually more impressive than thought on Election Night.

From your article: Norris-Weeks called the rulings the work of a “politically active judge.” She earlier sought to have Singhal recused from the absentee ballot case because the judge had been a member of the Republican Executive Committee, but that request was denied.
