Aside from the fact the "political rectitude" is an oxymoron, no, China doesn't appear to be intimidated by Trump, or anyone else. Appearing to be intimidated by anyone would make them look weak, at least in their own eyes. China's actions are not politically correct at all, nor is it intended...

"Go f*ck yourself, China. Go ahead, keep it, ya big baby. But you're gonna pay for this yoooge!" Trump is sick and tired of China screwing us over for years, from everything from currency manipulation, on trade, and with China thinking it can steal our technology with abandon. With that Tweet...

Yep, that's the term, and yep, they're against it. And it would need to cover everything from the price of a heart transplant to an angioplasty to the price of a Tylenol and the prices of medical equipment, all of which has become a golden goose riding a gravy train. And, it would also need to...

In a van, generally speaking, whenever you get a load over the weekend it's a bonus. There are just too many businesses, manufacturing in particular, that do not work on the weekends. BTW, Happy birthday! :t3310:

You're right in that's all we've heard. The Republicans need to huddle up and get their act together. They've actually taken a full vote in the House to fully repeal Obamacare half a dozen times, and 54 times they've voted to pick apart this or that measure of the ACA. In all of those 54 times...

The loss of fair-weather friends, or even his base, wont be enough, to to mention the deeply offended, deeply hurt feewings of Republicans and Democrats alike. To overturn the rule of the American people in the general election you have to have real substantive cause (not just egregious, but a...

The same thing can be said about every promised action by every President in history. It applies no more and no less to Trump than to anyone else.

Here's an article that I think mostly sums up well Trump's picks thus far, and the reasons behind those picks.

I would think that "...a really fair shake from me," would be interpreted as "I'm not going to screw you over." No, I would suggest it was campaign rhetoric as much as anything. "I love Iowa. I've been here so many times now, I think I'm going to buy a farm and maybe just move here." Should...

To those who take him literally, there is no doubt that he's a walking, talking contradiction machine. Especially when it comes to details and minutiae. But more broadly, his stance on policy positions have remained remarkably the same since he started talking about them in the 80s. Trade deals...

In the Sprinter, mine is mounted about an inch from the top center of the windshield. It's right in the middle of that shaded area with all the dots. Best way to find out if you're in violation is to pull up to a toll booth. If the light changes from red to green, you're not.

That's what I understood your reference to be, and I was referring to Trump's political correctness, as well. I don't think Trump's political incorrectness will get old. He's a blunt talker, and if you look at who is has been picking for his Cabinet, most of them are blunt talkers, too. It's a...

It was the type of change that Trump promised that set him apart. While all the other candidates promised change, the changes they promised were of the intangible tweak variety (except Sanders), and in the case of Clinton and Sanders, changes that cater to the identity politics crowd. Trump...

Going back at least as far as 2008, people wanted change. The same ol', same ol', wasn't cutting it. People were tired of watching factories close up and seeing the production moved to China and Mexico. People were angry after they watched Walmart tout "Made in USA"and then move all too quickly...

Yep, it's to update the ECU for the MAF sensor to get an engine light if it fails. Stay away from the dealers? Does that mean I shouldn't get the update? Because, if I go to a Freightliner dealer on purpose, it will be to have the update done. I don't live near a Freightliner dealer, so it'll...

Must be a different Mike Pence. Pence is a staunch social conservative, the exact opposite of even a moderate liberal, much less a leftist liberal. His promoting and then signing of Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act will likely never be forgotten or forgiven by liberals. As a...

Individual Republicans, on a personal level, probably. The party as a whole, maybe not so much. Your statement assumes a premise of Trump truly being encumbered. He wiped the floor in the primaries with 16 contenders. In the general election, as well as the primaries, he had the Democrats...

Trump won't be President. That's their end game. They'll be able to pat themselves on the back and feel good about what they've done. They can stop crying, they can finally stop 'literally shaking,' they will once again be able to... EVEN. They realized they can't have a do over on the...

I got a letter in the mail the other day letting me know about a new recall on my 05 Sprinter. The computer needs to be reprogramed for something or another. Weird.

Quite possibly. But I think more than anything, the question will be whether it's advantageous to either party. Impeachment, conviction and removal from office is very rare for a President (this would be the first, actually). A Trump impeachment would certainly benefit the Democrats, as long as...
