I was only saying this afternoon to a Trump fan how Scaramucci was awful and had to go. Glad the idiot schmuck has been fired.0

10 days from being the poster boy to being fired. I wonder what did it? Just someone desperately hiring someone else who is totally incompetent at the job?0 -
Just incompetent hiring and then needing someone else to call it and demand the firing.I am just thinking out loud - nothing I say should be relied upon!
I do however reserve the right to be correct by accident.0 -

Donald is certainly a "jobs first president".
He has hired 3 Head of Comms in the same time that Obama would only get through 1 !0 -
Trumps post from 10/01/2012 20:07 :-
3 Chief of Staffs in less than 3 years of being President: Part of the reason why @BarackObama can't manage to pass his agenda.0 -
It is no surprise, software is much lower capital. Almost anyone can buy a $200 computer and write code and potentially develop a lucrative website or app.
Interestingly in the US. Around 50% of entrepreneurs are immigrants. Appears that the American dreaming is dying. As fewer people now view the US as being their destination. More opportunity in India and Asia.0 -

Trump alone against his own party, the legacy media and Establishment tapped into the fact working class people had had enough and were banging on the pipes demanding more hot water.
He alone set out to champion them and return the American Dream, that's the whole point.
All this tittle tattle stuff is of little interest just as they weren't that bothered by his language and Human frailties during the election campaign.
As long as he restores real hope with jobs and prosperity he will have suceeded in a way the out of touch political elites failed miserably.
Obama promised change was comming to America and then delivered utter misery to the working class. Who cares if you have healthcare when you have no job and dignity left?
Obama delivered terrifying national debt, vast unemployment, vast welfare dependancy, massive immigration, relentless offshoring and declining real incomes for the lower and working class. Even many middle class felt dreadfuly let down and so switched from Obama to Trump.
Obama handed 20% of US Uranium over to Russia with the Clintons taking back handers. They gave Iran, the worlds terror sponsor, billions.Clintons campaign was massively funded by Iran and Saudi.
All of us should observe lessons from the past. At every stage the smug protected punditry told us Trump could never win the nomination let alone the Presidency. Time and again smug presenters such as Rachel Maddow on NSNBC told us "even if Trump won all the toss up states, he would still lose, he has no way of winning"
Let's be a little humble and see if he delivers prosperity to the masses, my guess is he will0 -
But he's done absolutely nothing to help the disenfranchised. There are no new jobs, no improved economy, nothing behind the "Make America Great Again! (Made in China)" campaign.
The most significant thing he's tried to do so far is deprive the poor of affordable health care, and somehow he's managed to get a lot of the victims on board (until they realise what's happening). Thankfully he keeps getting stopped.
With all this fake news, a lot of people quite adamantly believe stuff that just isn't true, like the idea that Trump won the popular vote (when the election numbers clearly disagree).
He's championed tax breaks for the rich, hired some of the worst possible people for posts, and spent a huge amount of taxpayer money trying to boost his own businesses.
He's literally everything he claims to be against.
Maybe he'll manage to generate something good - I imagine a lot of the parody trump clothing that'll be on the market for years will be US made, at least.0 -
Who cares if you have healthcare when you have no job and dignity left?
Anyone who gets ill. That's the most ridiculous statement I think I've ever seen on here, and that's quite an achievement!
There's absolutely no need to link employment with healthcare. Especially since a lot of people needing said healthcare are unable to work (likely due to the condition that requires the care).
Can you imagine having to give up you're job because you get ill, then your house to cover the co-pays, then give up your healthcare because of pre-existing conditions?0
