OOTB's Political Thread . ..

i do...this board is full of throwing insult bombs...i’ll be better.

This board actually seems tamer than most I've been on. Most of the insults that I've noticed have come from lefty posters, but that's probably because they've been directed at me. I don't think I've insulted anyone since I got here, and if I did, I apologize right now for doing it.

You did better the first two years Obama was in office if you were in the market then.
I'd have to pull my statements to verify. Doesn't really matter though. Presidents don't deserve credit for the market in the long term. Good or bad. At the end of the day, Coke has to sale drinks for the stock price to go up. If they aren't, it doesn't matter who's in office.

I agree 100%. Most presidents know better than to brag about the market because they know that sooner or later it will come back to bite them on the ass.

Eh, all presidents try to take credit when it's going well. The problem with Trump is the market was long overdue for a correction. He should have taken that into account.

The letter did not mention Trump and did not include statements typically found in resignation letters about it having been an honor to serve the president. It was addressed "Dear Mr. President," and concluded with a line about how it had been an honor to serve the nation and "our men and women in uniform."

A former White House official who worked closely with Mattis' team described the letter as “a 21 gun f--- you.”
 
I personally don’t give a shit about the wall

I don't give 2 shits about the wall either, but there are plenty who do. Plus, this has become Trump's line in the sand. If he capitulates on this, then his image as the guy who fights for his voters will be lost, and that will be his downfall.
 
I’d rather not actually pay for the wall. I do like that it’s gumming up the whole process though. Shows how non-essential the “non-essential” parts of government that have gotten shut down really are.

Trump is a grandstanding bullshitter... he can bullshit his way around that detail, if he's a true master.

He already lied about being responsible for the shutdown. I'm sure he can bullshit around the wall.
