If we lived in a normal country, our government would be preparing international assistance for Jamaica.

So no we'll have a private army accountable only to Trump?

That could build a lot of flood mitigation.

We've seen this script before. Chicago. 1968. It was a police riot.

Yes we could have won in Viet Nam....by totally destroying the country and killing millions. There would have been nothing left. What would have been the point?

I would have done the same if the tables were reversed. I love Boston but hate the Red Sox.

I'm a life long Yankee fan but if the Yankees can't cime back in this series, I hope Toronto runs the table.

Remember that in 4 years, a Democratic president will pass executive orders that Republicans will hate but will be powerless to block.

It will get worse. And that is part of Trump's plan. People protest. Some become violent. The government over reacts, leading to larger protests. Possible riots. And possible martial law.

Teams simply need to develop push the tush back defensive schemes.

A reminder that every day. The Trump administration makes the U.S. poorer, sicker, dumber, and less safe.

So Walmart made billions of dollars last year during what you say is the worst economy in history?

Concentration camps are where groups of people are held under armed guard outside of any judicial process for an indefinite period of time. The U.S is sending people to concentration camps in El Salvador. There is no judicial process, no official charges and no recognition of a right to an attorney.

I've always called this the Amtrak system of management...underfund something then blame it for poor performance. Now it's the entire government.

Violent protesters should be arrested, charged, and if convicted, sentenced. They should not be pardoned because a President thought it was OK for them to attack police. But as soon as a President gets to determine which protests are legal and which are illegal, our rights have been destroyed.

Trump: β€œAll Federal Funding will STOP for any College, School, or University that allows illegal protests. Agitators will be imprisoned/or permanently sent back to the country from which they came."
