I hope so, I hope we've finally hit the biggest shitstorm of generation and we're not just building up for a bigger one.

I can't wait to see how lil' trump turns the military into a business. Will he threaten to invade small countries unless they pay protection money? That has been known to be a profitable racket.

And about the environment: Remember, bigly trump said, 'we'll be fine with the environment. We can leave a little bit, but you can't destroy businesses.' I'm sure America has far too many parks, they could be sold off to corporations for a good profit and I think the Republicans want to get rid of the protected areas in the ocean, a tiny percentage of the oceans. I'm sure those areas would do much better in private hands.

And remember how nice things were before unions, well, you'd have to actually read history to know about that, but things were very, very bad for workers, you can look it up. Turn everything over to corporations and we could be back in the 1900's.

The only people Trump thinks he can trust are his kids, they ae the smartest, the best and the most wonderful because they are his kids. That's a nice thought for a parent but running the country should not be a family matter, that seems too much like the Mafia.

The definition of "consultant" as seagulls: they land screeching, consume all available resources, defecate everywhere, and leave the employees to clean up the mess with no resources.

I expect Trump's following the standard Republican playbook: give everything to your cronies, stick taxpayers with the bill.

I am very interested in how corporate America is going to address the problem of opioid abuse. Ineffective, for-profit rehab centers are definitely one option. More cold turkey bullshit and yoga are some others.

dont wanna ruin anyone's party, or anything, but uhhhhh....'market solutions' is why we have the opioid abuse problem to begin with...

big pharma had to find the most profitable way of unloading their share of all that fresh, cheap, sexy new windfall shitload of opiate that our military and CIA secured from the taliban in afghanistan...our occupation of afghanistan and the skyrocketing of opiate prescriptions/sales, and cheap, high quality hrr-ron is neither accident nor coincidence

The words "like a frightened turtle" come to mind.

"staffed by former business executives" because nobody is more innovative than former business executives, right.

I'm guessing that Kushner wouldn't care.

Nope, Lil'Donnie's playbook is "give everything to Lil'Donnie, stick taxpayers with the bill."

I didn't vote for the obvious con man, but did his voters realize that they were electing a 25 yr old realtor and the gin-soaked editor of a fringe propaganda outfit to run the country?

I'm guessing Donald Junior and Eric HATE Jared and snicker behind his back when they are sure Daddy's not looking.
