Melania's answer to Trumps sickening Tweet this morning....

But First Lady Melania Trump spoke up in her husband's defense.

"As the First Lady has stated publicly in the past, when her husband gets attacked, he will punch back 10 times harder," her communications director Stephanie Grisham said in response to reporters' questions.

And people say hands off on her? No thanks.................

Gutting Medicade is only part of the overall Welfare spending...

There was $741B spent in fiscal 2016 but that was both Welfare and Medicade combined. Well my my....Trump and his tax break for the rich club could dig a HELL of alot deeper than just gutting medicade and really dumping on welfare. As mentioned they have $741 BILLION $$$ to play with.

And then of course if they really have the balls go after social security and medicare which has DOUBLE the spending of welfare and medicade.


Oh for JOY Trump!!!!

LOL....SC Boeing workers getting axed

Trump goes there and opens his yap promising the moon and 200 are losing their jobs. Oh yeah,shows you how being non-union is NO guarantee of keeping a job. This would be the same Boeing who received tax breaks here in Wichita for oh....50-60+ years and then blew town. Yup run down to SC and sign up a load of workers just begging to work for non-union wages to build aircraft costing $200-300 million a pop.

Old fart in a MAGA hat tossed off of airliner to shouts of LOCK HIM UP! Bawhahahaaaa...

"Apparently, the man plopped himself down in a seat and demanded that the seats next to him remain empty because he did not receive a first-class upgrade, according to an account of events on Facebook by passenger Clark Gredoña. The 14-hour, 50-minute flight was headed to Newark Airport in New Jersey. Gredoña wrote: “Already delayed an hour coming out of Shanghai to EWR when an older man in my row with a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat decides to make a ruckus and delay everybody else. He insists that, because he couldn't get an upgrade, he's entitled to all three seats next to him even though they're assigned to somebody else.”

"As the man was ushered off, he allegedly called one female passenger “Hillary" and also referred to her as “lesbian.” Other passengers began to yell at the man in both Chinese and English, according to Gredoña. Then passengers shouted, “Lock him up,” a paraphrase of the chant made famous by the Trump campaign about his running mate Hillary Clinton."

Wow...Trump invented the phrase "Priming the Pump"

Well...he SAYS he did! BTW Trump,that very phrase was used in the movie Nine to Five oh....THIRTY SEVEN years ago. But...if you say you came up with it...........

TRUMP: We have to prime the pump.

ECONOMIST: It's very Keynesian.

TRUMP: We're the highest-taxed nation in the world. Have you heard that expression before, for this particular type of an event?

ECONOMIST: Priming the pump?

TRUMP: Yeah, have you heard it?

ECONOMIST: Yes.

TRUMP: Have you heard that expression used before? Because I haven't heard it. I mean, I just ... I came up with it a couple of days ago and I thought it was good. It's what you have to do.

Republican lawmakers in Kansas trying to foist a flat tax on the poor and working class....

This is how they want to make up the shortfall cause by Gov Brownback when him and his wrecking crew of Republicans voted for a ZERO State income tax rate starting in 2013 for all Corp/LLC/S Corps and those with rental incomes. As predicted back then the disaster has happened,we'll be facing a Billion $$$ shortfall by June 2018. Another disaster tinkle down "plan" by Arthur Laffer and signed off on by Brownback and Repubs.

Oh yeah....80% of the Legislators have their OWN LLC.

Gosh what to do?? Make those Corporations start paying taxes again??...nah Try and shove through the Legislature a Neil Boortz "flat tax" which would more than double the tax rate for the poor and working class while implementing a 2.2% tax reduction for those in higher incomes.

We'll see.............
