As a obsessvie fiscal hawk, heere is my POTUS grades of my lifetime,

Biden- F       The worst of my lifetime, man is taking us off a cliff

Trump- D-     Promised fiscal restraint.  Not only didn't deliver, but incurred more debt (even inflation adjusted) than any prior POTUS.  Did like regulatory restraint, which was a good start

Obama- F-  QE I, QEII, QEIII.  He was a pioneer in loving exponential excessive debt.

Bush II- D   All I want to add is just what was the return on investment of the WOT?  Sucked

Clinton- D+  Favorable only and mostly because Newt's congressional initiatives.   Deep down Slick Willie was still a tax and spend liberal.

Bush I- C-    Cratered to the left by ditching the main taxation tenants of Reagonomics. 

Reagan- B-   Actually the gold standard of our lifetime, but still was no Calvin Coolidge.

Carter- F      Laughng stock, in financial terms, who was way over his head.  As bad as  Jimmuh was, he still doesn't touch Biden

Ford-   D    WIN  (Whip Inflation Now)  The original RINO was convinced we could manage the malaise with slogans

Nixon-  D+   Wage Price Controls, Off fold standard, Then watch inflation rise up to 12%, and GDP losses approaching 5%?  Yeah, he inheritied some of the damage, but he didn't do much to improve the situation


I’ve been watching this Javier Milei of Argentina and, even though I’m heterosexual, I get aroused.

Chile was an economic and inflationary mess with government owning industries and stifling regulations and protectionist tariffs until Pinochet. The difference is Milei was elected.


If he succeeds, Argentina will become an economic success story

Have any of these idiots ever seen the messages our GI's commonly wrote on bombs they were about to drop on German cities?  :shrug:

So what?  This is only a problem among the 5 people who support her.
I don't support or not support her, right now to me she's a non issue, but I don't have a problem with what she did there. I really who did she offend, moslem terrorists and that dimwitted supporters? I mean it's not like she shot their dog :whistle:

The group publicly opposed a Florida law that was passed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis last year that restricts the admission of Chinese instructors and students to higher education institutions. It also prohibits hiring Chinese students to work in academic labs without specific authorization.

 :pondering: Looks like Ron was right again.

I disagree.  I don't think Trump supporters will rise up.  Not in the least.  J6 was a warning shot to them all and I suspect that they are already prepared to 'calm' any insurrection very swiftly and by any means possible.  After all the ultimate goal is to lock Trump up.

You think the 70- 80 million trump voters are going to be ok with a presidential candidate locked up in jail? That IMO is a bridge too far for most people.

Chaos is coming IMO.

Yep, but he cannot help himself. Even though the trial is a sham, inflaming the situation only makes things worse.

Especially since this is the Judge who will pass sentence..

I wonder if they know what's coming?

Trump gets TV sent to holding room

Former President Donald Trump was able to get a TV sent to his courthouse waiting room, a campaign source told Fox News Digital.

Trump is passing the time watching TV as the jury continues deliberating for the second day, something he wasn't able to do on the first day of deliberation.

The jury began its second day of deliberation just before 11:30 A.M., with the jury spending the bulk of the morning rehearing both judge instructions and specific testimony jurors had requested.

When one gets to be a certain age, sleep becomes pretty hard to get.
I had to look up the story, it's from 2019
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/dallas-man-went-back-bed-after-killing-burglar-police-say-n1060086

DALLAS — Authorities say a 72-year-old Dallas man fatally shot a suspected burglar behind his home and then went back to bed before finally calling police nearly two hours later.

The Dallas Morning News reports that James Michael Meyer has been charged with murder in the Thursday killing and was jailed on $150,000 bail as of Friday.
