It appears Trump understands he is beat with Obama & Yellen's recent game plan for the rest of the year.
Trump rallied "Yuge" while we were tanking Dec-March. Not so much now.
It doesn't surprise me the "Massive Recession" story got no traction. Most people have no clue what a recession is.
Trump is making a mistake by implying that he can "trade" his way out of it. The economy waxes and wanes. It ebbs and flows. Bubbles form and they deflate. We're gonna suffer for a while but we can get back to some kind of responsible policy.
His message should just be simply to tell the truth from the point of view of an experienced billionaire investor and businessman. Reveal what the Fed is doing to average Americans.
Point out the fraudulent economic numbers. GDP & unemployment. Point out how numbers are always revised downward months later (unnoticed & under the radar) by the same crew who cook them up in the first place.
Just stay on point Donald if that is fucking possible. Ball is in his court.
No, Pooh.
He binked the truth and then he kept talking. Cringed in embarrassment.
I wish he had a guy. A team.
Look he ain't a crook like Hillary. He's just dumb.
I guess bribing public officials, union officials, and mob bosses to build every project in NY, NJ, that he ever built isn't really a crime, but your right he's really dumb for bragging about itQuote:

Because of democrat policies, we are ensured to be wage slaves to our bank note holders for the rest of time, or until we decide to kill our multinational creditors in war.Quote:

Colorado GOP deletes #nevertrump tweet, pledges investigation

Cruz Campaign Outmuscles Trump in 34-Delegate Colorado Sweep
http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/ar...rado-delegates
Ted Cruz swept the Republican National Convention delegate selection process in Colorado, displaying a strong grassroots organizational effort and greater popularity among the western state’s most committed party activists.
The showing from the junior senator from Texas highlighted Donald Trump’s lack of a robust national political organization, a problem that could doom the Republican front-runner and political novice at the party’s national convention in July.
Delegates backing Cruz won all of the slots for participation at the national convention in Cleveland, with the final 13 being selected at the end of a day-long convention Saturday in Colorado Springs. That gave Cruz 34 delegates in the state.
“You all have been a part of something incredible that has happened over the last three weeks,” Cruz told more than 5,000 party activists at the convention earlier on Saturday as he reflected on recent victories in Utah and Wisconsin as well as Colorado.
The state convention selections followed 21 delegates who were picked at previously held congressional district conventions. Three Colorado party leaders will also attend the national convention as unpledged delegates.
So if you're a Colorado Republican, you don't get to vote on the Primary...Quote:
Colorado GOP blundered on 2016 presidential caucus
Republicans made big mistake in abandoning presidential tally
The Colorado Republican Party's decision last summer to jettison a presidential poll at its caucus on Tuesday looks worse with every passing day.
Except for the actual delegates to July's national convention, Colorado Republicans who want to have a say in the future of their party have mostly been stripped of a role in the most interesting and surprising nominating struggle in decades.
They'll stand on the sidelines on Super Tuesday while other states determine whether Donald Trump continues his march toward a possible nomination or whether his rivals can slow him down.
Meanwhile, local airwaves have been featuring ads on behalf of Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, since the Democrats are still holding a traditional caucus at which participants get to signal their support for a candidate. It's known as democracy. The Colorado Republican executive committee needs to reacquaint itself with the concept.
GOP leaders have never provided a satisfactory reason for forgoing a presidential preference poll, although party chairman Steve House suggested on radio at one point that too many Republicans would otherwise flock to their local caucus.
Imagine that: party officials fearing that an interesting race might propel thousands of additional citizens to participate. But of course that might dilute the influence of elites and insiders. You can see why that could upset the faint-hearted.
By contrast, far-sighted party leaders should have welcomed the extra attention to their caucus and the potential activism on the party's behalf it would have spawned.
Admittedly, one thing has changed since the GOP executive committee made its decision on a preference poll: It appears somewhat more likely today that no candidate will have wrapped up the nomination by convention time. But even if that ends up being the case, it will be no great boon to Colorado's uncommitted delegates. If no candidate has enough votes on the first ballot to secure the nomination, delegates will be free to vote for anyone they like anyway.
It's bad enough the two parties in Colorado don't have presidential primaries in which many more voters would participate. The caucuses already limit participation to a narrow slice of the electorate. But the fact that the Republican leadership then took matters a step further and deprived even that narrow slice of voters a voice in one of the most competitive, consequential political nominations in memory - and perhaps in history - is mindboggling.
It's likely that some Republicans who show up Tuesday will be surprised to learn their presidential preference is of no consequence. Perhaps someone should be on hand to explain to them why party democracy is apparently too disruptive and unpredictable to be trusted.

Could be the lowest %age voter turnout for a presidential election in a long time due to disallusionment. Both the Dems and Repubs look likely to really piss off a lot of potentially voters.Quote:

Drexel said on the show he really never followed politics until this election. I dialed out decades ago. Until now. Trump and Sanders deserve credit for this.
The only thing that will re-ignite passion will be the GOP bouncing Trump. He runs as an independent. Heard a little on the show about the importance of Indiana. If this is true I hope he loses there. I want this to be close enough that the GOP hang themselves.
If at the end of this mess people are left with a clearer understanding of the filthy process and a conversation develops then some small positive will result. I am not talking strictly about delegates but the entire process from selection and financing on.
Hopefully, qualified individuals outside of the system feel energized to run in the future. Maybe some of America's best and brightest and not political humps like Rubio Kasich etc.
Until the summer I will resume my apathy.
Smart money says bet Sanders in case Clinton is defeated as insurance and put the house on Clinton.Quote:

In a bizarre twist there's two candidates who haven't been bought out by special interest. The establishment has decided to step in and rig the election and the media's totally in on it. It's really happening, it's happening right in front of our face.
They're going to create many unlikely coalitions like say me 4dragons and Pooh. You guys get the feeling there may some riot's coming?? What the fuck is going here.
i may not like trump but i love the way he's immune from the media. he's really paying the way for the next credible person that can do what he does, only much better
I just want to be clear about what I mean about the trite "Democrat power" thing.
Obama and his girl, Yellen, are gonna mine the unique opportunity they have with the Fed. They will juice the economy with one last shot of steroids that will last until the election.
Trump was running good Dec-March. If you can finance your new Chevy at zero down and 0% interest and your job at the plant or the Gap is still good then the heat is off.
If you trade Predict-it you and follow the Dow chart or your 401k you buy Trump now and sell on a dip. You might bink a small profit.
There's only one other politician I can think of who is not a total sell out.
Russ Feingold and yes he's coming back and yes I think he will become the POTUS at some point. You heard it here first.
Ted Cruz and this nobody kasich jockeying to steal delegates is making me sick to my stomach
gg democracy as we know it
Nice sentiment, but George McGovern's corpse probably has a better shot at becoming president.Quote:

The general public just wants rid of the bullshit (Clinton etc ) but it is very likely they can't pull it off.
My tinfoil hat is basically saying that there will be no GOP by 2018. But it also has said that Obama will be the last President of the United States. What comes after I don't know, but it won't be a Republic anymore, at least not as we recognize it today.Quote:

In the last PFA radio at one point it was like "Hitler open mic" night. Druff was calling for undercover cops to bust doctors giving medical marijuana to unworthy candidates. Druff feels that the American voters were tricked in to voting for medical MJ (See above video for the blatant hypocrisy.) He expressed disgust at the medical MJ thread on this forum. Implied I was some mad stoner from that thread, I don't have one post there and don't smoke. He obv. wants those MJ smokers and their families to go back to getting raided by swat teams with flash grenades at 5 am and doing hard time. He was indirectly calling for billions of dollars to be funneled to the violent drug cartels instead of paid to the govt in the form of taxes on medical MJ.
Druff that was really radical man.
Like many big-government conservatives, Druff foolishly thinks that drug prohibition actually works... Okay, I admit. It works to make certain groups of people -- including the psychopathically violent members of the drug cartels -- *much* better off. But listen to Judge Jim Gray, a former drug warrior and *smart*-government conservative, discuss who *also* wins out with drug prohibition. (Time to wake up about this matter, Druff. I know you are smart enough to do so.)Quote:

the only good thing that can some from this political season is the masses should be able to come to the realization for good that there is no real choice. The choice is an illusion. Heads they win, tails we lose. Up until now we always thought if it got bad/worse we could just vote "them" out and move on. Now we have people winning elections and can't even get on the ticket.
The two party system is the worst political set up for this country. Until they are broken up into many smaller parties things will never change.
