    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    A Big Reason U.S. Economy Is Accelerating: Government Spending

    Faster government spending, particularly on military, accounted for nearly half of acceleration in economic growth since mid-2017




    A stark pickup in government spending, particularly in defense, has helped fuel a broad acceleration in U.S. economic growth in the past year and a half, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of Commerce Department data.
    The U.S. economy has expanded at a 2.9% annual rate since April of 2017, according to the Commerce Department’s tabulations of the nation’s gross domestic product, or output. That growth rate is faster than the 2.2% annual growth rate between mid-2009—when the expansion started—and April 2017.
    Faster government spending accounted for nearly half of the acceleration, according to The Wall Street Journal analysis.................

    Pelley: How do you fix it?
    Trump: There's many different ways, by the way. Everybody's got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say because a lot of times they say, "No, no, the lower 25 percent that can't afford private. But--"
    Pelley: Universal health care.
    Trump: I am going to take care of everybody. I don't care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody's going to be taken care of much better than they're taken care of now.
    Pelley: The uninsured person is going to be taken care of. How? How?
    Trump: They're going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. And, you know what, if this is probably—
    Pelley: Make a deal? Who pays for it?
    Trump: —the government's gonna pay for it. But we're going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it's going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/theapot.../#297823a7540e



    That was candidate Trump in 2016 when he was looking for votes. Because Medicare for All is massively popular, even among Republican voters. Of course when he took office his idea of reforming healthcare was to take it away from 25 million people and give the resulting savings away to the top one percent in a massive investment tax cut.And now it's election time he's back to bullshitting about healthcare again claiming he's the one trying to protect medicare and the Obamacare benefits and the Democrats are the ones trying to cut them. And it'll work because there are so many thick fuckers who can vote. I swear if Americans were ten IQ points smarter idiots like Trump would be unelectable and the 99% would be much better off.

    And that's not a knock on Americans really, lots of countries seem to have fundamentally thick electorates including Britain. Some countries seem to be lucky. Maybe it's their electoral systems that just help save them from thick humans.

    Oh and I had to post this. It's nice when your beliefs are shown to be correct:

    When Max Boot was a young conservative apparatchik on the make, the key moment in his career occurred when he got a meeting with Robert Bartley, editor of The Wall Street Journal editorial page, one of the movement’s most prestigious and influential organs. To Boot’s surprise, Bartley offered him a job as economics editorialist. The prospect “horrified” him, he writes in his new memoir and critique, The Corrosion of Conservatism: Why I Left the Right, because he “had never taken a class in the subject and had no interest in it.” Boot later learned that Bartley sought out conservatives unfamiliar with economics for such jobs. “He did not want to hire an economist because most professional economists disdained supply-side economics,” which is to say, an inability to see through the pseudo-economic nonsense was a cherished attribute.

    Some people in Tallahassee are under investigation and he's connected to them but there's no criminal involement. But look who he's up against Lyle. For fuck's sake. Trump can't release his own tax returns because they'd be evidence in decades of various kinds of tax evasion and fraud. We recently learnt that he's avoided paying fortunes in taxes through outright fraud, was funded to the tune of hundreds of millions in various failing businesses by his father till 2004 and then in 2006 even though no banks would touch him anymore suddenly found a source of hundreds of millions of dollars with which he bought a whole bunch of new loss making enterprises. And then there's the twenty plus sexual assault allegations, endless more scandals and new ones still to come.

    But what has given Trump’s version of it unusual virulence is his belief that the media should be an uncritical conduit for his lies. This is the true through line of his entire career. Media manipulation, along with fraud and secret money infusions from his father, is the secret sauce of his career. The New York Times’ account of Trump’s tax fraud incidentally explains how the Times itself was recruited to create a myth of Trump’s success — in 1976, a credulous reporter went on a tour of Trump’s purported empire, and breathlessly recounted his triumphs:



    In the chauffeured Cadillac, Donald Trump took The Times’s reporter on a tour of what he called his “jobs.” He told her about the Manhattan hotel he planned to convert into a Grand Hyatt (his father guaranteed the construction loan), and the Hudson River railroad yards he planned to develop (the rights were purchased by his father’s company). He showed her “our philanthropic endeavor,” the high-rise for the elderly in East Orange (bankrolled by his father), and an apartment complex on Staten Island (owned by his father), and their “flagship,” Trump Village, in Brooklyn (owned by his father), and finally Beach Haven Apartments (owned by his father). Even the Cadillac was leased by his father.




    Trump persisted in manipulating the media to build his image as a brilliant deal maker by publishing lies so wild the reporters he used couldn’t fathom them. (Reporter Jonathan Greenberg later recounted one such episode, in which Trump lied his way onto the Forbes 400.) Eventually almost all of Trump’s deals collapsed, and his one remaining marketable asset was the media-created perception that he was a brilliant businessman.

    Dodge City Sends Wrong Polling Location Info To New Voters

    WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — After moving Dodge City’s sole polling site outside city limits, county election officials sent newly registered voters an official certificate of registration that listed the wrong place to cast a ballot in the midterm election — the latest election snafu to surface in the iconic Wild West town where Hispanics now make up the majority of the population.


    The southwest Kansas city, located 160 miles (257 kilometers) west of Wichita, has only one polling site for its 27,000 residents. For nearly two decades, that site was at the civic center in the mostly white part of town.



    But citing road construction, officials recently moved it for the November election to the Expo Center outside of town and more than a mile from the nearest bus stop.



    “I didn’t know this could get worse, and it did: ‘Hey, let’s move the site and not tell new registrants where they are supposed to go,'” said Johnny Dunlap, chairman of the Ford County Democratic Party.

    Whatever, he's not going to win even the Florida Governor's race ditto with Beto over in Texas vying for Cruz's seat....ain't gonna happen, btu the Dems will run failed candidates for President in 2020, LMAO yyyyyyeah that'll work.

    Trump "can't" or "won't" release his taxes big difference between the two. And you bring up all this other stuff like ANYONE cares about it....has any of that touched his poll numbers? Has any of that convinced people to NOT vote for him?

    Now when you say "the white part of town".....

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wichit...as#2010_census
    As of the 2010 census, there were 382,368 people, 151,818 households, and 94,862 families residing in the city. The population density was 2,304.8 per square mile (889.9/km²). There were 167,310 housing units at an average density of 1,022.1 per square mile (475.9/km²). The racial makeup of the city was 71.9% White, 11.5% African American, 4.8% Asian, 1.2% American Indian, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 6.2% from other races, and 4.3% from two or more races. Hispanics and Latinos of any race were 15.3% of the population

    Dodge City is sixty percent Hispanic.

    After the ACLU objected to Dodge City's single, out-of-town polling place, the local official in charge of elections forwarded to the state an ACLU letter asking her to publicize a voter help line. "LOL," she wrote in an email to Kris Kobach's office.

    Gillum despite running on an incredibly progressive platform is leading in the polls. Four and a half points up on average:

    https://www.realclearpolitics.com/ep...llum-6518.html

    And Beto is a harbinger of Texas going blue. Even GOP officials have said it's only a few years away now. We talked about this recently but it's fallen off your teeny tiny little shelf.

    You're right. Nothing touches Trump's poll numbers. They're still historically rubbish despite inheriting a first-in-history economic situation. About time he released those tax returns.

    And how about this Lyle? In a week where a right wing terrorist radicalised by Trump sends a bomb to George Soros, we get this fucking lunacy:

    The entire Republican movement is just devolving into some kind of horrific racist conspiracy craziness.
