No we are not and in the 1960s we were not at war with Protestants. But this president refuses to name radical Islamic terrorists for what they are, as if it will either appease them or make them go away by sticking his head in the sand.
Surely you recognize that radical fundamentalist Muslims want to do us harm? That their long term goal is an Islamic kingdom which covers the entire world?
Even if the guy was a Muslim (which he isn't),
Your logic is utterly facetious. You're claiming every contractor in the country would automatically make good Presidents because they constructed things. That's like saying I'd make a good neurosurgeon because I used to vasectomize mice.OMG, the IRONY!!!!
See, this is the mental disorder I'm talking about. Ever since WWII, Americans see every conflict in the world and the next Hitler and the next world war and so we must step in and save the day. Please, ISIS is not the forth reich.
Again, he is claiming his chief (and only) qualification to be POTUS is that he amassed wealth.
How about leaving them the hell alone and let the people that actually live next door to them deal with them? Why is that concept so hard for Americans to get their minds around? Ever since WWII, Americans seem to be hungry for a war to go off to.
Straying off topic for a minute, but trying to minimize civilian casualties is a fucked up way to fight a war, or even to reduce death and destruction. Trying to minimize civilian casualties makes a war drag on unnecessarily long and exposes your own soldiers to added risk.
It is better to go in and kick ass and end the war asap. We entered WWII in '41 and were victorious by '45. How long have we been in the Mddle East now?
Actually, Trump has optioned his name and the money of others for numerous projects, a feat of which he has boasted on more than one occasion. Moreover, he often leverages far more from investors than he himself puts in, another feat of which he has boasted.
This is not in any way to denigrate his accomplishments, far from it. He is a very successful self-promoter. However, when the topic turns to his wealth and its actual extent one must take into account that he doesn't actually own many of those buildings that bear his name. How many he does own and how much of them is his is a subject of conjecture, since the details are private and have not been divulged.
As I have said over and over, you have no idea whatsoever of the extent of his wealth. All you have is his own description with no verification of any kind. You guys appear immune to this simple realization.
The only authors I ever heard of that got rich either had their books optioned into movies or started religions.
Now THIS is irony of the best sort. You're telling a published author how much another author must have earned from royalties. Ever published book? How many did you sell? How rich are you?
Every economics teacher I knew was a screaming liberal. I had an instructor in college that actually said that raising taxes will always raise revenue because it will force people to produce more to keep the same net earnings. I withdrew from that class in the first week.
It worked out OK for General Washington.In that case we were equally armed, technologically.
