Which brings to mind, where the heck is the sitcom about the Conway family? Where he's okay with wifey lying for living, it's the real liars that are the problem? And what the hell are their kids like? Enquiring minds want to know!

The contract could be the Wall!

Heres the looting part:

....so far for this fiscal year starting Oct. 1, the total deficit is 77 percent higher than it was for the same period a year ago....Tax revenues were lower following the new tax cuts, with corporate payments down 23 percent...

and this:

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin informed Congress on Monday that he will stop making payments into two government retirement funds now that the debt limit has gone back into effect.....Mnuchin said that he would stop making investments into a civil service retirement fund and a postal service retirement fund.....

and this:

Tariff-Man Trump to Preside Over $100 Billion Jump in Trade Gap.....

ok, now let's try the "Lying Con Man" category:

Remember when @realDonaldTrump tweeted on Xmas Eve that he "just gave out a 115 mile long contract for another large section of the Wall"? (That's a long contract, by the way!) A govt lawyer said in court last week "there is no such contract." @aaron_leib: https://t.co/ytR1g7dG7K

Brexiteer politicians and voters, and Trumpers, are increasingly frustrated The Great Glory Days have not arrived for them ......personally, as they imagined were coming.

I'll just take the "People are Strange" category, Alex.

Maybe it will help with this non U.S. example I just ran across to see what I think Flavius is trying to say:

This 87-year-old has spent 59 years living in Scotland and now has to apply to stay in her own home. I am ashamed to see the distress and confusion our government is causing her. We should be proud to have Europeans like Tove living in Britain, not risk pushing them away. https://t.co/0QI2rYOMV2

The Wall isn't in anybody's interests, except politically connected Wall Builders.

It's not in anyone's interest to be manipulated, exploited and have their country looted by a lying con man, and a Party that's run like an organized crime syndicate.

People always seem to think that what they want is what "the people" want. People who aren't at all like "the people" want to tell me, us, what "the people" want. I'm not at all like "the people." I don't think like them. I don't do the things they do. I don't know them at all. I don't know what they're going to vote for. I don't accept the judgment of people who tell me what "the people" want or what they'll do. I don't think they know any more than I do about what "the people" are going to do. All I know is what I'm going to do. And on my list Biden is the one I'll never vote for. Never. And Sanders is next on my never list.

Yes and they ĺl vote for Trump , unless we give them a democratic candidate who serves as a ¨golden bridge¨: a Biden not a Bernie . Yes. I say sadly.. Because I clearly understand that nearly every cliche is true some of the time and for some of them it will be a matter of life or death.

But the reason there haven´t yet elected five liberal presidents ´ in our history is:

we weren ´t good enough . To vote for them.

It´s not an odd accident that so many people sincerely hate immigrants. Or supported slavery. People aren´t necessarily evil. Only when itś in their interests.
