In September 2013 Trump said this about Obama, "Problems start from the top, and they have to get solved from the top, and the President's the leader, and he's got to get everybody in a room, and he's got to lead. And he doesn't do that, he doesn't like doing that, that's not his strength. And that's why you have this horrible situation going on in Washington. It's a very, very bad thing and it's very embarrassing worldwide."   I wonder if he realized what he was saying then was actually a prediction of his future?  ;)

So where are Trump's amazing leadership and negotiating abilities?

Went out and bought a new one, and a matching dryer. . .

  Oh, that's nothing.   :wink:  You will be able to pay for it with the money you get from Trump's tax cuts.   :biggrin:

When you've worked 30 years, put yourself through college, and get a position within senior leadership, your job is to make decisions that support the business vision and polices surrounding who gets hired.

When you ignore the behaviors, policies, and vision of the company and decide to do things against them, don't be surprised when you get passed over for a promotion and sit and cry about how unfair it is. . .  :rant:

Leaders lead by example, and when your example is poor it doesn't matter how skilled you may be at performing the work. You're a cancer waiting to be excised.

Weather?

Nope. Pole snapped somewhere making transformers explode and sparking a fire in a nearby substation. (From what I have heard.)

Glad I did my taxes early, otherwise I'd have been seriously pissed.  :biggrin:

Well at least you have until Tuesday if that would have happened.  ;D

"He's dying anyway. . ."  WTF?

Look. I disagreed that McCain was a good choice for POTUS; his "choice" of running mate aside. I stand by that choice I made back then. I would not change that at all.

But to degrade a man with 7 children, 5 grandchildren, and a wife. . . A man that served his country honorably as a member of its military, enduring capture, and then choosing to continue to serve this country via elected office, and who is now dying of brain cancer. That goes beyond despicable. (On top of besmirching his service record and introducing entirely false innuendo by saying "I prefer those that don't get captured.")

Fuck that shit. I may not have agreed with his candidacy, and even some of his political initiatives, but the man has absolutely earned my respect, and always has, for his commitment, sacrifices, suffering, and service to this country. And he and his entire family absolutely have my empathy and sympathy as they endure not just the toughest battle of their lives, but an entirely unacceptable and uncalled for attack upon the life and service of John McCain. 

Trump and his entire cabinet are not deserving of one nano-second of whatever remains of John McCain's time and breath. The "aid" that is responsible for making the "he's dying anyway" comment should be summarily fired, and the Raging Cheeto needs to be disciplined over his ongoing besmirching of the man's service and reputation.

No man or woman is above the laws of this nation, and certainly the professional behaviors standards for every single one of our elected officials should be set much higher than they apparently are.

This country is a shithole at this point in time.  :rant:
