Maybe but we have in total maybe 100 covid cases and
universal healthcare
And second highest minimum wage in world
And 4 weeks minimum vacation for everyone
And 10 days sick leave/year for all
And we did that on 168 consecutive quarters of growth...
Shame you trump supporters are so stupid
You are a good Sheep ! And just as brainwashed as you need to be......blame the person who's been on the Job for 4 years not the career politicians. there is far from an Apples to Apples comparison between the 2 countries on any level - Population, land mass, imports exports blah blah......Just bow to the Queen or King or whoever the hell you are all still beholding to.
I pity people like you......so simple minded, so analytically challenged, yet so arrogant and judgemental. The exact reason he was elected. There is really not much left for us except "meet behind barn" No chance anything he would do in the future will change your Prejudice mind and no chance I'd let you spout off like you do in person......so just go on spewing your BS.
You have to understand the majority of Americans who wave the flag and cheer we're the best at a drop of a hat have one thing in common. They've never been anywhere. They have no idea that things might be better in other places. They buy lies from a man like trump because they are too lazy or ignorant to fact check on their own.
I doubt that as Trump's charges are going to be NY state charges, not federal. Rudy is in a unique short group of 4-5 who will face federal charges AFTER Pence is gone and can't pardon them.
Trump & his family are in the state charges ... should be interesting to see where that goes, especially with Ivana and her hubby. They may plea a deal on their sweet dad to stay out of prison. This family is like pariah fish; as soon as one gets wounded, the others turn on them to save themselves. Should be fun!
And pray tell, where do you put yourself, WICPL ... the lucky "informed"? Really?
You deny reality and actual events to live in some fanatical fantasy world.
Trump once said "I could ******* someone on 5th Ave in the middle of Manhattan and get away with it" ... so that's the way you Trumptards see everything ... just deny it and move on. I believe his Presidential waiver privilege is fix'n to be canceled.
Hey ShitnTp that was not the Quote ! This is the quote --"I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters," https://www.realclearpolitics.com/v...t_somebody_and_i_wouldnt_lose_any_voters.html
You have to be smart enough to discern what he was saying about the loyalty and following he was seeing growing during his run in the primary.
This takes the recognition of hyperbole and or sarcasm and you Mr. Chips Dips Chains Whips ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer.....
Spoken like a true enlightened Yankee ..... For GAWD's Sakes women get over yourself
This is a no factor Mr. Drilless. You being a Canuck should just worry about Justine and wether or not The northern tier of the US is gonna open up so Y'all can border jump to pay thru the nose for health care you cant get out the Da Bush.....Slap Nutz.
I think you are just some simpleton MF here to jabber bullshit......you have no idea what the fuck is going on....go spread your bigotry and racist hate someplace else....that is the problem with you fucking trumptards….to fucking stupid to see you are destroying the country.....so simple minded you want and desire a dictator....someone to tell you what to think.....like his famous statement...do not believe what you see and hear...only what I tell you....that would apply to people like you and you took that to heart...now why don't you go play in the street

Biden transition: Why US spy world is feeling uneasy right now
A series of sackings and appointments - with rumours of more to come - has created a sense of deep uncertainty around the US intelligence and national security community.
While some outside that world have raised fears that this is part of an attempt by the president to hold on to power, many on the inside see it more as driven by a desire for personal revenge and the latest stage of a conflict that has done much to define Donald Trump's presidency.
But there remain fears that the uncertainty of a divisive transition could hold real dangers.
The sacking of a raft of top civilian leaders at the Pentagon, including the secretary of defence, was, many believe, just the start.
In some cases, this could relate to a president wanting to pursue specific policy goals during his final days and removing those who have opposed them, such as getting troops out of Afghanistan. But in many ways this also looks to some observers to be the result of pent-up anger and the final act in a long battle.
America's national security community has been in the firing line for President Trump, accusing it of being a "deep state" of conspiring against him.
He viewed the intelligence community assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 election in support of his candidacy, as a threat to the legitimacy of his victory and went on the offensive almost immediately. And he has never stopped.
In recent months, he has been pushing hard to declassify information which he thinks will support his case that the assessment was wrong. The White House installed a political ally, Richard Grenell, as director of national intelligence who has supported that drive but has still met with resistance.
CIA Director Gina Haspel has been talked of as currently in the firing line. She has walked a fine line since being appointed. Critics say she has been too close to the White House, citing among other things her appearance and applause for the president at his State of the Union speech.
But her supporters say she has played a careful game in trying to stay sufficiently on the right side of the president to protect the agency from being politicised, fearing that if she was fired, then a more partisan figure would be chosen to replace her. And her apparent unwillingness to declassify some aspects of the intelligence surrounding Russian interference in the 2016 election recently has drawn fire from the president's supporters.
An even more controversial sacking would be that of Chris Wray, director of the FBI.
President Trump is believed to be angry at the failure of federal law enforcement to investigate Joe Biden's ******* Hunter Biden over his foreign business connections and wanted some kind of replay of 2016 when then-FBI Director James Comey's public pronouncements surrounding Hillary Clinton's emails caused her damage in the closing stretch of the campaign.
While CIA directors are often, but not always, replaced by a new president, FBI directors are appointed for a 10-year term.
The highly-regarded head of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (Cisa), Chris Krebs, has also been rumoured to be in trouble because a website run by Cisa called rumour control made clear that claims of vote rigging and fraud, including those pushed by the president and his supporters, were false.
There have also been concerns at appointments as well as departures.
Political operatives have been given senior posts at the Pentagon and one, Michael Ellis, made general counsel to the National Security Agency (NSA), reportedly against the wishes of its head, General Paul Nakasone.
That gave rise to concern that the Trump team may be trying to "burrow" individuals into the national security system where they can continue to play a role after 20 January, when Joe Biden is inaugurated as president. Another option is that it is simply a desire to reward loyalists and allow them to "pad their resumes" with the expectation they will soon be gone and carry out more controversial policies in the meantime.
While a new president may be able to replace many of these individuals and pick his own team, there are still concerns about the implications.
The refusal to acknowledge Joe Biden's win means the former vice-president is not yet receiving, as is customary, the presidential daily brief of intelligence about the threats the US is facing. The longer that goes on, the more the danger will be that it could have real-world consequences as a new national security team may be faced with issues that they will not have been prepared for.
There is also a risk other countries could also seek to take advantage of this period of uncertainty, for instance Iran, which may want to retaliate for the killing of General Qasem Soleimani by the US in January.
Difficult transitions can have real consequences for national security.
The commission into the 11 September attacks found that the short handover from President Bill Clinton to President George W Bush, because of the disputed 2000 election, may have contributed to the failure to stop the devastating attacks on New York and Washington by making it harder to get a new team in place and up to speed in time.

We live in a country that can't even get clean water to all of its cities. Please
we buy all of our water....the company where I worked noticed the water and had it tested...not good..... but the county said it was within gov standards...so the company put in watercoolers with filters......here at home we buy bottled water by the case....and at wal mart if you have your own jugs or bottles....they sell you filtered water by the gallon....we use that for cooking and coffee...tap water is just for cleaning....unfit for anything else.....and we have talked about not even doing the dishes with it
