So you're a psychologist that you can deem them to have a mental disorder? Let's see your qualifications, let's see your studies, let's see how exactly you determined this, scientifically that is.
Not to mention that the factory will be heavily automated, meaning the number of jobs that it actually provides will be relatively insignificant. Trump made a lot of promises to blue collar workers that the march of technology render unkeepable. Even if somehow magically coal recovers, the number of people employed would be a fraction of the number employed a quarter century ago, and of course, coal isn't coming back, so it's really an academic question.
It would be nice if a political candidate would go to a town hall meeting in the Rust Belt or in coal country and say "Look, I sympathize with you, and the loss of your jobs to other countries is a sad, but inevitable consequence of the changes of manufacturing that have occurred over the last thirty years. The fact is that even if new factories/mines are built tomorrow, the overwhelming majority of you will not be rehired, and it is likely that many of you who are currently employed will lose your jobs, or, at best, will retire and those positions deemed redundant. It's time to move on from a 20th century economy, and I commit to bringing economic development into your region, into job retraining, and making your lives more affordable."
But no, all these regions get is a lot of blowhards shouting how somehow they have the magic power to turn back time (and it isn't just the Republicans).
If you have some evidence that peer review in reputable journals is anywhere near as faulty as the faux peer review in these scan journals, then provide that evidence, otherwise you're just as big a fake as these scan journals, and just as diahonest, vile and immoral.
Leaving the office, even with electoral defeat, is hardly political suicide. Going out of your to repeat mistakes that brought down a previous president, that is political suicide. Nixon was a good enough POTUS that some of his legacy still remained intact. The way Trump is going, there will be no legislative achievements, no domestic achievements beyond small-minded travel bans, a foreign policy that could best be described as chaotic, and of course, proof or no proof, the collusion story will haunt his presidency.
At worst it is speculation. I remember when your type were declaring any collusion with Russia to be a lie, until Jr. himself admitted he had tried to do just that.
My chief problem is that I would have to drive a helluva long way to enjoy a 70mm film in all its glory. The multiplex theaters near me simply wouldn't show such a film 'in all its glory".
There have been political stories on/. since I was started posting here (circa 2003). In other words, if you don't like the story in question, then don't open it up. It's really simple, and doesn't make you sound like an arse.
Because that's the most serious thing happening in US politics going on right now.
If you don't like these kinds of stories, why do you bother to open them and comment? I think the answer is obvious; you do care, it makes you angry, and you feel compelled to open such stories, comment on how they don't matter and yet still try to throw out some red herring about the other team.
Of all the things Spicer said, that's the one where I really don't hold it against him. He was trying to be clever, and said something stupid. People say stupid things all the time, so really, if that were the extent of insanity of this administration, I'd give him a pass.

They want what the constitution affords them; equal protection before the law.
Perhaps he's promoted Steve Bannon to General. After all, we know this is where it's coming from.

You are aware that apart from climate change, diesel emissions are carcinogenic. That's some pretty big fucking downsides.
Godless heathens, everyone knows Jesus only wants coal fired power plants.
This was already tried. The Articles of Confederation were a failure.
Does anybosy here actually know any US history?
I completely agree. We can start with the Heartland Institute...
And unnecessary. It sounds like a gimmick, but the implications aren't exactly encouraging.
Has Uber even made any money?
Do you often go on to public forums seeking homosexual encounters?

So your defense is a logical fallacy.
And I'll just add; Deep Throat. That is all.
An anonymous source brought down another POTUS.

By the looks of it, that's not even true. He seems hell bent on committing political suicide.
Well it is, so I guess you'll have to suffer it. One possible remedy at your disposal is not to open such stories.
I'm shocked that there are still people out there who think Trump is a conservative.

Does anyone actually believe he runs his companies? He's the brand name, the wrapper on the chocolate bar.

Yes, poor poor Donald Trump. What's a man to do?
Oh, that's right, try to find ways to fire the special prosecutor and indemnify himself and his close cohorts by pardoning the whole bloody lot.
