does this routine ever wear anyone out? Trump's insane; Hillary's clearly crooked at this point -- why waste your time denying?
There's a difference between calling someone crooked and implying they had someone murdered.

Secondly, the world craves energy and we have it. This argument will not sit well with the Climate Apocalypse crowd . . . So be it. Trump proposes ramping up energy production by lifting regulations currently in place. The US has or is soon to pass Saudi Arabia in oil production. Not only will we become energy independent (not beholden to foreign interests in the Middle East/Russia) but we will profit through energy exports of coal, oil, and natural gas. Comparatively speaking we have an environmentally safer extraction technology compared to the rest of the world. We hear about Obama wanting to kick BPs ass for Deepwater Horizon but spills happen with much higher frequency in the shitty pipeline construction in Nigeria, damaging the African ecosystem.
I'm bound to get the "I can't believe you believe in this trickle down fantasy" responses, but I have more faith in the free market than a bunch of DC technocrats who've never run a pizza parlor let alone a multi-trillion dollar economy. The entitlement bills are coming due with the next wave of retirees. We need to start turning a profit or we will be screwed. In Hillary I see a manager of America's slow decline. In Trump I see a leader that will give the economy the shot of adrenaline it needs.

If the economy was easy to figure out, then I'd imagine economists would be very wealthy people.
They're not
The whole notion of drill baby drill and energy independence sounds great but it's just simpleton. The notion of being "independent" and not dependent on foreign oil is very appealing isn't it, but what are the real consequences? In order for oil to produce jobs and grow economies the price has to be high enough. You move everything domestic and the price comes crashing down. Nice for the daily consumer, nice for the business owner dealing with gas expenses, but horrible for the overall economy. It's a shitty and complicated catch 22 of economics and energy.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg...
Well yea but climbing up the side of the building is just too much. That's something Diamond would do <>I thought I snapped Monday peddling Hillary conspiracies or as Vlad called it "performance art"

That's why we should look to Trump as he clearly knows what he's doing.
Personally, the best people to run this country's economy happen to be the children of people that were already very wealthy. Call it a strange correlation, but they all happen to generate the most income gains of anybody from birth to death. Perhaps success is hereditary?
You know, I can see how Trump didn't mean what people think he meant with the whole "Second Amendment people" thing.
But when you say bonkers/apeshit/inarticulate/racist/assholish/WTF shit every time you open your mouth, don't be surprised when this sort of thing happens.
Poor Trumpy. So misunderstood.
I'd love to listen to Hannity with you one day and just go back and forth in a thread. Hannity does fall back on his tropes ALL THE TIME . . . penny plan, HSAs, blah blah.(Gets annoying) Rush is much more fresh and cutting. I enjoy Lou Dobbs on FBN more than Hannity now.
Back to your point. Your analysis has merit. Saudi Arabia has been pumping like crazy to stop the expansion of US fracking. Its cheaper to extract the gulf crude than fracking the Bakken field in North Dakota. It appears the companies are bringing the extraction costs down. Meanwhile the petro-state of Saudi Arabia is coming dangerously close to running deficits. Once that happens they won't be able to afford the pay-outs to their citizens. I read somewhere that about 40% of their men don't work and live off government stipends from oil revenue. Wouldn't be surprised if the country destabilizes into some kind of violence. Shia and Sunni both reside there and is the home of the Wahhabi sect.
That being said, India, SE Asia, and China have growing demand for oil. Would be nice to pocket some on the exportation to these areas.

Don't underestimate Trump. He beat out 16 republican contenders... and he has a degree from Wharton, the best business school in the US and part of the Ivy League (UPenn). And he did blockbusters on The Apprentice!
Are you taking the piss?
If he's so smart, how do you explain the bizarre bullshit that comes out every time he opens his mouth?
Also ... not sure if serious.

I cannot speak for everybody here, but for many Americans wages have flatlined over the past 20 years while the cost of living has gone up. Opportunities have diminished for millennials who want nothing more than to work than be stuck in their parents basements while the student loan bills fill the mailbox. At the end of the day the health of the American Dream is represented in the bi-weekly pay checks they look at twice a month. Whatever candidate can successfully connect the string of pearls from their macro-economic vision to those pay checks will win the election.
Lol, and you call Hillary's policies the status quo
you sound like caroline channing?Don't underestimate Trump. He beat out 16 republican contenders... and he has a degree from Wharton, the best business school in the US and part of the Ivy League (UPenn). And he did blockbusters on The Apprentice!
I'm thinking now you might be yanking our chains?
The fact that he knocked out the other contenders doesn't say much about him, says more about the party. Grain silo, anti-vaccine, a Bush, a fired CEO, and Satan? I could have knocked them out hungover and half asleep(would have been more awake than Carson). Wharton?! Come on you can't have it both ways; you can't praise one's Ivy League record while vilifying others or higher Ed in general. Apprentice? I almost believed you until you used this as part of his resume. Maybe Snooki can be your 2020 candidate?

That is strange...he shoots from the hip. Apparently lots of people at rallies dig it. Honest, anyway, right?
Apprentice was a great show, I followed one season all the way through. Have you seen him at work in "the board room"? He is thoughtful, intense, listens to others and weeds out the problems. He is looking for success $$.
Wait, Trump is honest? So he means everything he says?
