Cont: All things Trump + Russia Part 2

[skyeagle409]

Because most people walk up to the edge when it comes to taxes, why would a person deliberately open themselves up to it?

I wonder if Trump can give the American people a straight answer as to why he continues to refuse to reveal his tax returns when other presidents have done so.

Exactly! Trump has made a huge deal about making America first and his only exception seems to be Russia? Now what about that that seems fishy to anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Well, first you need to post what he's done for Russia. Most on the left seem to think having a dialog with them means we're becoming one.

I'm fascinated by this hard on the left has for Russia.

We're you aware of post 1224?

Still trying to decipher the gigsalad.

I already told you why, shall I put up the post for once again?

That, I have no doubt!

No, they are not. That's spin.

That Mueller has hired all democrats and that he and Comey are besties, you think those are not facts?

Trump will release the kraken before he releases his tax returns willingly. I'll get drunk for joy when he finally is forced to.

Ah, yes, I noticed that you and your buddies want the US to fail hard if you don't get it your way.

Oh, that's impressive, coming from someone who actually wants the US to fail hard. Does that mean you think we're allies now?

I've noticed the cozy relationship with Russian compared to our allies. He says, "America First" in his foreign-made suit while hiring foreign workers, not to mention his building projects constructed of foreign-made steel.

How Donald Trump Ditched U.S. Steel Workers in Favor of China

Plenty of blue-collar workers believe that, as president, Donald Trump would be ready to fight off U.S. trade adversaries and reinvigorate the country’s manufacturing industries through his commitment to the Rust Belt.

What they likely don’t know is that Trump has been stiffing American steel workers on his own construction projects for years, choosing to deprive untold millions of dollars from four key electoral swing states and instead directing it to China—the country whose trade practices have helped decimate the once-powerful industrial center of the United States.

Trump has been duping his supporters and it seems they haven't figured it out.

I'll feel the same way when the Clinton crime family foundation is investigated.

General matters don't matter when the text is unambiguous like here. This is exactly what I mean by the Constitution being a suicide pact.

It's a suicide pact because the founding fathers, aka "humans" couldn't predict the future where a madman idiot took advantage of loopholes they couldn't possibly envision?

Mining has taken off, steel will also come back. Of course your hero Obama did his best to kill both.

Yes, but Obama is out of office.

William do you really want our country to fail?

Correct.

I've heard the voices of coal miners who agree that the industry has been declining because coal can't compete with cheaper more efficient energy sources.

Our Charts Show How Dead the Coal Industry Really Is

President Donald Trump wants to put “our miners back to work,” but unfortunately — he can’t.

It’s not because of political reasons; it’s simply because the coal industry is dying, and the jobs just aren’t there.

The once $34 billion coal industry has an “increasingly dim employment prospect,” according to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis’s (IEEFA) 2017 U.S. Coal Outlook. IEEFA also notes that “promises to create more coal jobs will not be kept – indeed the industry will continue to cut payrolls.”

Money Morning Global Energy Strategist Dr. Kent Moors put a timeline on the death of coal for readers back on May 17, 2016, when he said that “the black rock (coal) has 12-18 months at the outside before conditions get so bad that coal (and nuclear) plants begin to closing in earnest.”

The Coal Industry Isn’t Even Certain That Donald Trump Can Save It

The Energy Information Administration, a federal agency that analyzes energy trends, recently modeled what would happen to coal if Trump repealed the Clean Power Plan. While the industry would see an initial boost, coal would eventually decline over time—not enough to bring job numbers back to levels seen in the 1980s.

A dozen hopeful miners surrounded Trump while he signed the executive order. But even Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke said of the order, "Our nation can't run on pixie dust and hope."

I know. What he says and what he does are rarely the same thing. He'd lie to anyone for any reason and often without reason. In the last 20 months, I've watched Trump attack pretty much everyone. France, Germany, the UK, Mexico, Japan, China, NATO, Except Russia and Putin. It's all about having a better relationship with Russia. Really, really fishy.

I agree. I am delighted to have read the latest here.

Congress reaches Russia sanctions deal

(CNN)The House and Senate reached a deal Saturday to slap Russia with fresh sanctions and give Congress new veto power to block any easing of those sanctions -- an agreement that could send a new bill to President Donald Trump's desk before the end of the month.

House and Senate negotiators announced an agreement was reached Saturday morning for a bill that would include new sanctions against Russia, Iran, and North Korea.

Despite the White House lobbying for changes to the measure, the legislation will give Congress a new ability to block the administration from easing sanctions on Moscow. Democrats and some Republicans have expressed concerns that Trump is considering giving Russia back two compounds in Maryland and New York that were seized by the Obama administration in December.

Yea, I read that earlier. Trump’s boss is going to be angry.
