Would the same people that complain that Trump mainly communicates via Twitter be the same ones that make a huge event of piece of paper stuck to a shoe?

It's a mad world.

It was probably a secret message from an admirer?

Actually I thought he looked quite old and tired when he waved at the top of the stairs?

As it is Friday I will allow myself to be petty

Now we could start an endless debate about whether it was a genuine error or whether there are people in Trump's campaign who are keen to make him look stupid

He had every reason to, that devilish staircase has 16.5 steps!

As for the mail, I kinda doubt it was sent by Trump himself.

Sorry Spanky, better luck next time!

You can get drunk on Coors? Who would have known that?

Anyone that went to school in Golden, Colorado?

Also I couldn't resist sharing, because these commercials were so bad they were good:

You are fake shoes.

True, very good number.

But unfortunately for Trump despite his tariffs and trade war the US trade deficit is widening, certainly imports are falling but exports are falling faster.

The U.S. international trade deficit widened in August, rising 6.4 percent to $53.2 billion which, as Trump likes to compare with Obama, is higher than in any month in Obama's time in power.

In fact, under Obama the U.S. trade deficit shrunk by nearly 29 percent.

Comparing January through July of this year with the same six-month period in 2017, the trade deficit is up by $22 billion (c.f. comparing Trump to Trump).
And it’s up $49.4 billion from the first six months of 2016 (c.f. comparing Trump with Obama)..

A number of experts claim Trump's tariffs and trade war will hit exports and that seems to be happening.
Basically two reasons for this, firstly retaliatory tariffs by other countries and secondly tariffs on US imports cause costs to rise on the goods that US wants to export.

It's almost like you can temporarily create more jobs by massively overspending on everything and taking in fewer taxes from big companies.

It's totally sustainable though, right? RIGHT? They are the party of fiscal responsibility, after all.

Brett Kavanaugh cleared a key hurdle on Friday as Senate Republican aim to confirm him to the Supreme Court this weekend.

Senators voted 51-49 to end debate on Kavanaugh’s nomination, setting up a final vote to confirm Kavanaugh for Saturday afternoon.

Surprisingly this was not entirely a vote on strict party lines.

Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) was the only Democrat to vote yes.

Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) voted against advancing the nomination, the only Republican to vote no.

Friday so far:
Trump nearly won the Nobel Prize
Lowest US unemployment since 1969
People discussing toilet paper

Coors is like making love in a canoe.

Third reason. Many people in other countries are beginning to boycott US branded products. Coca Cola and Coors are off my shopping list.

ftfy, it is like maxing out your credit cards and saying "see how much money I have"

ftfy

Wow, two products. That will bring them to their knees.
At least I was consequent for decades about South African products.

But I guess in the 21st century you deserve a pat on your shoulder for those two products.

I was also consequent for decades about South African products.

But when I see SA today I wonder if I did the correct thing?

I also supported Aung San Suu Kyi in Burma/Myanmar but.....

Not so many. It was a B757, not a B747.

My experience is that works OK so long as the canoe is on dry land

Well, I know I did.

But I don't do these things to influence political parties etc. (I think I keep making it very clear that people should stop telling other peoples (Völker) how to run their countries ). I did it solely about apartheid. Aparheid was not politics, it was a fundemental iniquity and therefore everybody's business.

To lead back to the Trump thread: I would never demonstrate against Trump, I won't even boycott American products. They gotta know what thy're doing, I can have an opinion but absolutely no right to demand or even try to demand them to change their ways.
What I can do is stay away from the US, which at one point I decided to do and stuck to it up until now.
