I don't get the whole "pinch me" stuff or not putting this thread on the Rumours. You know Juventus has to pay an arm and a leg to get him? Dybala, Higuain, Pjanic, will all be gone. Yes, he might be the best player in the world, but won't be for much longer, and Dybala will probably be gone...

From what I've heard Ireland decided to lower taxes and companies are swarming there. 15% rate in the US, would give a massive boost in the short term. Would it balance the books in the long term? That's a whole different story. I'm sure whatever Trump does the deficit will suffer.

I thought the Carrier deal was a farce initially, but if you look at it in detail it's not that bad. Those jobs average annually at $60,000, and 800 employees means Carrier pays $48 million/annually, while they're only getting $700,000/annually in tax breaks. You make up that tax break just in...

"Liberals" are focused on a couple of manchildren playing dress-up (to compare these people to the old KKK is ridiculous), and fail to realise real racism is not out there in the open. It's systematic and hidden, and intertwined all throughout the fabric of society. They keep giving excuses to...

The loop that Trump has set up is a bit fascinating. While he's not a right wing guy in ideology, only right wing nut jobs stuck with him when no one thought he'd win. And those people are now being rewarded with cabinet positions for their loyalty, and pushing the country in a right wing...

Lol wth. They campaigned for the electoral college. Those were the rules. If the game was to get the popular vote, they would spend all their time in California, New York, Texas, Florida and not Iowa, North Carolina, etc... The faulty assumption is that in a popular vote election, the results...

ISIS reacting to Trump win "This guy is a complete maniac. His utter hate towards Muslims will make our job much easier because we can recruit thousands," Abu Omar Khorasani, a top IS commander in Afghanistan, told Reuters. :lol::lol:

The way people overreact is mind boggling. How many business deals does Trump have in South America and the Middle East? If he hated Latinos and Muslims that much, why would he be in business with these people? He just wanted the redneck vote, and doesn't care about anyone but himself. Trump...

Hitler actually believed in the stuff he said, and he went to jail for it. Trump changes his mind within the same sentence.

The thing about Trump is he's literally the most famous person in the world right now. America might be declining, but their status won't fade soon. The entire world is focused on them. Even more so than with Obama.

From the exit polling, Trump got more Latino and Black votes than Romney. LMFAO :lol:

They're part of the same movement: right wing populism. Politics is just a bunch of corrupt, pseudo-fascist insiders in suits. These guys like Trump and Ford gain popularity by "talking like a normal person" a.k.a. be crude, lewd and unprepared, and try to distance themselves from the insiders...

"Vote rigging" is third world talk of I'm going to lose, and I need to justify it somehow. Trump can't admit defeat because he's a narcissist. If anything is rigged against Trump, it's the media, especially outlets like CNN. And it's quite disturbing tbh. It feels like North Korea or Russia...

Every crony politician yeah. Sanders didn't. Anyone with a brain or conscience knew 9/11 had nothing to do with Iraq. Yeah, but is their entire impression of America from ESL teachers :D

Don't get this fear mongering of Trump being a racist/fascist. Obama Gov't: Deported 2 million illegal immigrants, dropped bombs indiscriminately on innocent people, destroying Native American land for pipelines Clinton: Voted and vocally supported a useless war that killed a million innocent...
