Economy The [Wall / Government Shutdown] Megathread

[MikeMcMann]

holy fuck you're out of touch and misinformed beyond belief. You don't understand differences in bankruptcy nor do you understand what his dad did for him. Also nice attempt with the Russian gimmicks. You're still on that train lul

i understand far more than you. I understand Donny cannot manage a big business without them going bankrupt. i understand his daddy had to finally cut him off the family purse strings after many bailouts thinking Donny was going to blow the family fortune. I also know that no US banks would have anything to do with him. He was unbankable.

But he was rambunxious in that he would not quit and was willing to go where few others would go. Russian and mob money to prop up his dealings. We'll see how that works out for him.

 

[MikeMcMann]

Declared bankruptcy 6 times and daddy had to bail him out of trouble on many occasions, been sued 4,000+ times, constantly stiffed contractors and eventually US banks would no longer loan him money, what else is there to understand?

Bamboozled will tell Trump is playing 4D chess. Bankruptcy is success. Daddy bailouts are success. We just don't understand the game Trump is playing. We have been bamboozled.

Trump is the Jim Jones of American politics, if Trump says drink the poisoned Kool Aid 90% of his followers would do it without question.

you're stupid and poor

look up the differences in bankruptcy, and understand his investments from turning 1 million into 10 billion. That's a huge swing for retards like you. It's why he's a "conman" but you see, trump is a retard, but also a conman, but he can't be both because he's stupid but somehow manages to make more money than you could given the same assets. It's really a conundrum you tards have come up with.

Trump lied about how much money his father gave him, it wasn't a million dollar loan he had to pay back, it was actually about 400 million he inherited. As for being worth 10 billion dollars, not a snowball chance in hell, he's up to his eyeballs in debt.

Well, he was. He did take the 1 million and turn it into billions, the skeptics at best said it was 60 million and turning 60 million into 10 billion is still fucking ridiculous. You're stupid and poor and just think of it as a progressive increment. Turning into a billionaire is much harder than being a millionaire. Poor people like you disgust me. You couldn't take anything in your life and multiply it by 10 thousands. Let alone BILLIONS

 

[Michael Conley]

Thousands of small business owners and entrepreneurs are fronted millions by way of venture capital/future debt/loans every day but Donald is a failure for it because reasons.

Maybe if my daddy gave me 400 million like Trump as a jumping off point I just might be a billionaire myself from wheeling and dealing in real estate or more than likely I would have just played it safe and put most of that money in a interest bearing account, bought some 60 million worth of shares in Microsoft back in the 90's shares and be a billionaire anyway without going bankrupt 6 times unlike Trump.

You just make shit up like poor people do to sound rich online

Poor people can't afford punctuation so I don't give it to them.

Donald Trump's greatest achievement was his brother drinking himself to death.

Venture capitalists and loans do not provide north of 40m in no strings attached money that you don't have to pay back. Don't insult your own intelligence.

Never thought that Trump would drop below 30% like a lot people were predicting at the beginning of his presidency given how polarized the US is now, but he just might get there.

Inb4 800 poorly sampled people is not enough for a valid result, "The survey of 800 registered voters was paid for by the Republican National Committee, which has been working closely with the Trump campaign. It was conducted Jan. 24 to Jan. 26 — a period that coincided with the tail end of the five-week shutdown."

Edit: The real takeaway from the article is,
"While the private memo shows Trump with a strong hand in these competitive House districts, other data suggest the shutdown fight took a modest but perceptible toll on the president. When the shutdown began in December, according to an average of national polls compiled by RealClearPolitics, Trump’s disapproval rating exceeded his approval mark by over 9 percentage points. As of Monday, Trump’s disapproval-to-approval deficit had widened to 13 points.

While all 10 districts surveyed in the GOP-commissioned poll are currently held by House Democrats, they are largely on Trump-friendly terrain. The president carried the 10 districts by an average of 12 percentage points in 2016."

Hmmmm quite the idea

Must make up any reason to defend daddy. So
Those small businesses then lie about how much money they were given?

Small loan of a million dollars? So they then lie about taking over the companies so they can be on the Forbes list?

 

[Andy Capp]

lmao

I would love to confront either of those people in person and ask them why all this shit didn't get done when the Republicans had all of Congress and the White House and what they think Democrats had to do with it.

lol. I love how you call people stupid and poor when you obviously know less about bankruptcy law then a child. There is not some big difference you assume and they are ALL negative and all FAILURES for the entrepreneur.

Yes EVERY SINGLE ONE of Trump's 6 bankruptcies shows his ineptness in that business. Everyone one of those 6 bankruptcies is a Trump FAILURE.

Trump may indeed have one of the highest failure rates of any major business man in the US. He is horribly inept and without Daddy and Russians and the Mob giving him endless do-overs and propping up his businesses he would be done.

 

[MikeMcMann]

Many sources now suggest that Trumps view of the Mexican border that is in direct conflict with what his border agencies reports is him actually confusing reality with what he may have seen in the movie Sicario 2.

Now we know where Donald Trump got that nonsense from about women being duct taped in cars



Fast driving cars that Mexico has that the US cannot match

Prayer rugs

Women taped up

Did Donald Trump Actually Confuse Sicario 2 with Reality

Yes ladies and gentlemen that is your high level thinking POTUS.
