Send the bill to the idiots that voted for him.

Scientists have imagined all kinds of crazy ideas that people thought were worthless at the time like Boolean algebra and quantum mechanics.

Homebuilders, home buyers, and mortgage companies need to age that a brand new, 5 bedroom, 3,000 sq.ft. house is not a starter home.

You're lumping all Christians into one bucket. MAGA Christian Nationalists seem to ignore many parts of the Bible.

Thank you, General (Retired) Mark Hertling, for saying what all of us who have served know we serve the Constitution and will not execute any order that goes against our oath.

The GOP changed. The Republicans i voted for between 1986 and 2014 would be disgusted.

Everything he does is a departure from previous administrations.

Bill Maher: "The tariffs, that's not really something the president is allowed to do unilaterally."

George Will: "No. A constitutionally enumerated power of Congress is to regulate trade with foreign nations. Congress, in its absent minded way, has now become a spectator of government."

Last week people freaked out because remodeling was costing $.5B more than budgeted, though Trump was wrong. The $46B wall money could properly fund the immigration legal system, effectively solving the problem rather than treating people like animals without solving anything.

Russia fell apart because Ronald Reagan, spending a few extra of GDP on defense bankrupted the USSR that was spending 25%+ on defense, according to Mikhail Gorbachev

I would not bankrupt myself buying a burglar alarm. The USSR fell apart because nothing was to expensive to defend their country.

In a heartbeat, although as someone involved in designing aerospace parts, the story might not have a happy ending.

Government often hides problems rather than solve them. Too many lawyers and not enough engineers.

The Epstein files are in the same box with Trump's tax audits.

That's an average tax increase of $150 per person.

One political science "talking head" pointed out that both were unelectable, with disapproval ratings above 50%. But one would obviously win. Either party could have nominated just about anyone else and won in a landslide.

Clinton's inability to run her department according to the legal requirements (she was warned by Powell and Rice the system needed to be fixed) was a disqualification. I would have gone to jail for using yahoo or gmail for export controlled data and fired for doing so with proprietary data.

Because I preferred McCain and then Romney. It is possible to respect both candidates while preferring one over the other. Using "policy tests" to ID the candidate I align with most, I often get 40-45% for one and 55-60% agreement with the other. Fiscal conservative, social liberal.

Johnson, Biden, Harris.

Many in the defense industry couldn't pinch their noses hard enough to vote for either Trump or Clinton in 2016.

Narrow minded twit. Fox News was biased in the 80s. I never voted for President Obama but I was proud of my country for electing him both tomes. He and his wife are great people.

I've worked in industries where information security was critical. Sending a work email to my yahoo account would have gotten me sent to jail for violating ITAR and/or EAR. Sending sensitive personal information from my .edu account could have resulted in federal or state sanctions.

I love my Outback. I drive far and wide on the Eisenhower Highway System, a very progressive thing inspired by a very conservative guy.

I voted Republican from 1984 to 2014 dipstick. And have despised Trump longer than I've disliked Hillary.

Democrats sided with the South in 1860. Your generalization is incorrect
