The USA should have a rule requiring applicants' full disclosure when filling out security clearance forms for high level office. Oh, wait...GreenGoo wrote:Holman wrote:Jeff Sessions just said the NFL should have a rule requiring players to stand for the national anthem.

To be clear, is the "he" here, Trump?Holman wrote:The important thing is that this hasn't derailed Trump's fight against protesters.LawBeefaroni wrote:If I understand correctly, lifting the ban also allows shipments from neighboring islands now, not just from US ports. Seems like it would allow quicker response to specific needs in some cases.

That's probably what Trump meant.noxiousdog wrote:Of course they are afraid of their players. If the players unified under a cause they could ruin the NFL. They are already planning for a strike/lockout in 2021.
This is not much different than any industry with a strong union, though in this case, the owners are afraid of the NFLPA turning into a strong union.
It's not what he meant, but I'm sure that's what he was told. 8 of the owners donated over a million dollars to his campaign. They absolutely told him to shut his mouth.El Guapo wrote:That's probably what Trump meant.noxiousdog wrote:Of course they are afraid of their players.

If I read Nox correctly he is saying that the owners told Trump they are afraid of them unifying economically. Trump then took it to mean a general fear - or simply chose to portray it that way because that serves his (Trump's) current narrative.GreenGoo wrote:Lol.
Nox, are you suggesting Drumpf was talking about fear of the players unified economic power?
Because that would be hilarious if that's what you think he felt the need to comment on.
Edit:. So it's not what he meant? I'm confused.
This is the line of crap he is selling.LawBeefaroni wrote:His intended takeaway: if even rich powerful white guys are scared of these uppity thugs who have declared war on our flag, you're right to fear them too.
The man is doing it himself - he is creating a potentially perfect nearly eternal record for all time of one of the worst people ever to govern a nation. He is a disaster as a leader and a human being and in perhaps 50 years there will be no one who will look back and think about how great he was. They'll only know how utterly terrible, reprehensible, and evil he was. I can live with that as long as we all do.Holman wrote:Just saw the morning's tweets.
There's no way to fully express this man's petty viciousness.
Yesterday Trump made a promise that "we will not rest" until the people of PR are safe.tjg_marantz wrote:For posterity
I agree with your second statement, but he's still small potatoes compared to Pol Pot, Stalin, and that club. He's certainly in the running to be the worst ever to govern this nation, but even there he still has a ways to go. Objectively speaking, he's had very little practical impact so far.malchior wrote: one of the worst people ever to govern a nation. He is a disaster as a leader and a human being
Taxes. Greater long term impact than the Puerto Rican crisis, and Reuters reported yesterday that the present plan clearly benefits the rich.Skinypupy wrote:Deep breath.
Stop.
Think.
Put aside the fact he's an awful human being...we already know that and it's been demonstrated time and time again.
What's he distracting from today?
He's putting that out there so when the media now pays attention to PR all the credit will go to Trump having the foresight to make it salient via rage-tweeting on it. Gaslighting for good!Skinypupy wrote:And your point is...?
The resources have been deployed. Trump has next to no effect on what happens beyond nodding and signing orders. The people doing the work are doing the best they can, it is just a difficult challenge.Holman wrote:Oh for fuck's sake, Rip.
The media is not the enemy here. The enemy is environmental and infrastructural devastation. The enemy is lack of medicine and food and clean water. The enemy is cholera. The enemy is raw human suffering that could be prevented by the greatest nation in the world if it applied its resources with sufficient leadership.
Trump can't understand any of that because he's an idiot and a villain and mentally ill, and he sees nothing beyond the boundaries of his own petty vindictiveness. Are you saying you're no better than Trump?
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/devastat ... -governor/GOV. RICARDO ROSSELLO: First of all, we are very grateful for the administration. They have responded quickly.
The president has been very attentive to the situation, personally calling me several times. FEMA and the FEMA director have been here in Puerto Rico twice. As a matter of fact, they were here with us today, making sure that all the resources in FEMA were working in conjunction with the central government.
We have been working together. We have been getting results. The magnitude of this catastrophe is enormous. This is going to take a lot of help, a lot of collaboration. So, my call is to congressmen and congresswomen to take action quickly and conclusively with an aid package for Puerto Rico.
We are in the midst of potentially having a humanitarian crisis here in Puerto Rico which would translate to a humanitarian crisis in the United States. So, I call upon Congress to take action immediately. You know, Puerto Ricans are proud U.S. citizens.
We have shown as much when Irma went through our region. It impacted us, but that didn’t stop us from going to the aid of other almost 4,000 U.S. citizens that were stranded in some of the islands. We gave them food, shelter. We make them out of harm’s way and we have them go back to their homes.
Now it is time for, you know, the U.S. citizens in the mainland to help Puerto Rico as well. And because we are a territory, we need to be equal, because we’re U.S. citizens, as would happen in any other state. The aftermath of this could be health emergencies, severe problems with infrastructure, and, of course, massive exodus of people of Puerto Rico, which would cause a tremendous demographic shift in Puerto Rico and in the United States.
And yet Trump still feels the need to make this all about him, blame Democrats, throw Puerto Rican leadership under the bus, and blame Puerto Rico citizens for not being bootstrappy enough. Such leadership.Rip wrote:The resources have been deployed. Trump has next to no effect on what happens beyond nodding and signing orders.

Is something like that so fucking hard??"I understand the frustration of the Mayor of San Juan. Rest assured that we are deploying all possible resources to support the recovery effort, and will work ceaselessly with local leadership to provide the help they need. All of America stands by you, Puerto Rico, and we send our love and support."
