The funniest thing about it is, Boeing's CEO gives an interview (partly about building planes in India) and expressed concerns about Trump's views on trade. Like 10 minutes later Trump Tweets about Boeing, "Cancel the order!"
He's puttin' everybody on notice.
You know this is just pissin' off Obama to no end.
Good day for Trump. Time magazine and now...

Here's a video worth watching. Some of this I knew, some not.
Later in the video where he talks about NYC having lots of money, and how a lot of it gets wasted, that's how he looks at things. As a real estate developer he's all about being on-time and under budget, and it is what is behind his Tweet about the $4 billion Air Force One program. A couple of years ago there was a study, commissioned by the Undersecretary of Defense, and promptly buried by the Pentagon, that showed the Pentagon wasted $125 billion in administrative operations. That's also behind Trump's Tweet. He's putting everybody on notice that he won't put up with that stuff.

The final numbers are in. Hillary paid a record-setting $1.2 billion, or $18.32 per vote to lose the election. Trump spent $647 million, or $9.50 per vote, to win the election.
Hillary spent $1.3 million of her own money on the campaign. Trump spent $66.1 million of his own money. Hillary had an original budget of zero dollars of her own money to spend, so she missed the mark on that one a little bit. Nearly all of her own money was spent in the last 2 weeks of the election. Trump, on the other hand, came in on-time and under-budgets with his spending, as he originally had a stated budget of $100 million of his own money for the campaign.
The Clinton campaign currently has $7.8 million cash on hand, which is about half the amount required to fully pay off the campaign debt (mostly polling and other services). Trump currently has $31.5 million in cash on hand, but only about $1.5 million of that still needs to go to paying off campaign debt. The remaining $30 million will go back in his pocket, since that's where it came from in the first place, reducing the $647 million total and the $66.1 million of his own money spent.

During the election campaign, and especially in the last month I thought he should have spent a lot more money on ads. I was having my doubts that Trump would win. It appeared, at least in Michigan, that Hillary's tv ads were being aired heavily, while Trump had a little bit, but not a lot. I thought he was getting hammered with negative advertising and it was going to cost him the election because he didn't respond(by spending more money)with more tv ads. In the end, Trump being grossly outspent wasn't enough to make him lose. I do think that all the money Hillary spent on ads helped keep Trump's negatives high and drive down his final vote total. It seemed just about all of her ads were just anti Trump spots and very little positive Hillary commercials. IMO, he could have had many more in the popular vote had he decided to spend bigly instead of smally. 
But it's all about the Electoral College baby!
So yes, Trump probably spent about as little as possible to still win the election by a razor thin margin and borderline landslide election victory.

Reinhold Richard Priebus (is a German name), and his nickname is Reince. He is the Chairman of the Republican National Committee. Anyway, if you take "Reince Priebus" and remove all of the vowels, you get
RNC PR BS
That's funny right there.

If you mix up the letters you get:

I believe this is an emergency room procedure to counter one of the side effects of Viagra; an erection lasting more than 4 hours.

In case you were wondering, what with a few mentions here and there in the MSM about Trump losing the popular vote...
Trump won 30 states, Clinton 20.
Of the 3,142 counties (including independent cities that are not part of any country, 38 of them in Virginia), Clinton won 487, Trump won 2,665.
New York, Clinton's "home" state, there are 62 counties. Trump won 46 of them, Clinton won 16.
The only states that were 100% Blue (Clinton) or Red (Trump) were:
All blue states: Hawaii and Massachusetts.
All red sates: Alaska, West Virginia, and Oklahoma.
Clinton won California, by a smidge, 8,753,788 votes to 4,483,810 votes (4,269,978 margin). That's how she was able to win the popular vote. California has 58 counties. Clinton won 33, Trump won 25. Los Angeles County has 10 million people.
Clinton won 88 of of the 100 largest counties (including Washington DC). Without these 100 largest counties she would have lost by a little more than 11.5 million votes.
People are, like, "She won by more than 2.5 million votes!" Yeah, well, one glance at the map and you can see just what kind of ass-kicking she really got.
If we do away with the Electoral College in favor of a strict democracy voting system, the areas of red would be under a complete and total command and control of the little blue dots.

With 36 days until Present Trump becomes a reality. Let us reflect on the beginning of this historic presidential thread journey 
It's hard to take this guy seriously when he starts his campaign making statements like this about a potential running mate:
"I think Oprah would be great. I'd love to have Oprah," Trump told ABC News. "I think we'd win easily, actually."
He also claims to be running as a conservative Republican.
And who was it that kept saying Hillary won't win..... hmmmmm?
