I did not find trump erratic, bizarre or egomaniacal , so I deem them to be subjective in the usage that was used and therefore my ruling stands. the post is disqualified, but please continue to reasonably argue the opposite view if you wish, my mind remains open to learning and new info.

perhaps those who found him so were not able to understand what he was doing. I saw purpose and thought in everything he did or said, even the spontaneous stuff was purposeful, in my view.

some people can only hold two or three things in the front of their mind at once, others of us can hold twenty things at the fore.

I don t judge others by my abilities or disabilities, or at least I try not to. I learned long ago, at work, that if you expect everyone to be as good as you you will be disappointed in everyone who is not. we all have our skills and limitations

They cover a lot of territory in a pretty sophisticated way but using a very accessible writing style, analyzing and explaining legal issues in public policy. Written largely by and for policy wonks who are not lawyers.

Trump (and his supporters) seem to be in the position of the dog who has suddenly, unexpectedly caught the car he's been chasing. I for one would not be able to predict what the dog would do next.

I glanced at it and came away with this which I think explains it all.

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

That and others like it is such a tired graphic - your country has huge expanses of land that are sparsely populated and that makes Republican support appear far greater than it actually is. The popular vote was split almost 50-50; any map purporting to show a more lopsided result is an obfuscation of that fact.

The country is purple -- not Red or Blue. That map is entirely misrepresenting our true state.

Roads, bridges, tunnels are all crumbling. Get to the rebuilding of those. Trumps a builder, these kinds of projects should come easy to him.
Just keep the MTA and Buffalo Rising out of it. new yorkers know what I am refering to :mrgreen:

This would jump start the economy to some extent. Can't outsource a road or bridge. Put in requirements such as local sourcing of people and material. Bonuses for on/under time to completion and penalties for run overs.
They had insentives like that for the LIE rebuilding and it's amazing, it came in under time and under budget.
The money can be gotten from tolls that are strictly to pay for the rebuilding and when
Yeah, afraid you can outsource a bridge...just ask LJ.

Trump did say he's going to have a good relationship with China. We better start checking under any new bridges for a 'made in china' label.
