CNN, go figure.

So you watch CNN, and then you say I watch it? Wow. Your posts are getting more and more embarrassing. I don't watch CNN so I'll have to take your word for it that they said Biden was a college dropout. No, actually, I'll search their archives to see who said that and when.

What were his skills when George W, Bush appointed him to the Board of Amtrak? I remember you asking that same question. Or do I?

And what has Burisma defined as the "skill set" required for any Board member? Can you share that with us?

Hunter Biden is a Yale educated attorney (which according to some posters means he's the smartest person in any room) with a pretty long history of international experience. You can catch up here.

Oh my God. LOL

They hired Hunter Biden to gain access to the American Vice President, Joe Biden. Hunter has ZERO experience in the natural gas industry, but his daddy sure can pull some strings. He does know how to knock up women in Arkansas, however, making him a fine follow-up to Clinton down there. Even Obama wasn't happy when he took that job.

Fortunately, questions are finally being officially asked and an investigation has begun. Joe might as well drop out now.

I bet democrats on here are miserable in their personal lives. They think about Trump 24/7 day and night and probably don't concentrate on their own families and careers. I have some advice for you all, live your lives to the fullest and don't worry about one man in the WH. Be happy and not miserable liberals if that's possible. Everyday I go on about my life with my daily routine, Pelosi, McConnell or Trump doesn't interfere with my life in anyway.

When Biden drops out it's because he's a dull, old fashioned conservocrat whom nobody really wants to vote for anymore.

The phony investigation will end up like Trump's DOJ Hillary "probe" and it's "voter fraud commission". Biden's fate doesn't rest on it.

Hunter Biden had zero experience in the train industry, so why did George W. Bush appoint him to the Board of Amtrak?

What is the experience required to be on the Board of Burisma? Can you please share that with us?

And please tell me what did Burisma get out of Hunter Biden. This should be easy to articulate. What strings did "Daddy" pull for them? With data, too.

Knock up a woman in Arkansas? Would you hate Hunter Biden less if he "knocked up" a woman in New York while still married to his wife - like Trump did? You do know that he "knocked up", as you so eloquently put it, Marla Maples while he was married to Ivanka, yes? Is he a fine follow up to someone?

Interesting. Tell me more. Where do I work? Who is my employer? Why is our business doing so well? How do you know I can be replaced? What have been my annual raises for the last 15 years, and why were they given to me, and also the 11 people who work for me? What were their raises, and why was I able to get them for them, and what was the percentage each year, and what was it based on?

You seem to know something about me that nobody else on this board does. Surely you didn't just chime in and post about something that you know absolutely nothing about.

You seem to know little about economics or how businesses work. What I said is probably repeated in Chapter 1 or Chapter 2 of most economics textbooks.

You didn't answer any of my questions, and you were talking about my employer and why my raises are what they are. Why did you make things up?

I got my biggest percentage raise in 2011. So did everyone in my company. So go on to tell me why that happened since you seem to think you know about my company's payroll budget and why and how they determine raises.

Again, for possible comprehension, I was speaking in basic economic terns, which I would guess applied to your job. Companies doing well are more likely to reward employees than those going bankrupt. Why it happened was that your boss saw the company doing well and felt it would continue. He rewarded the people that made it happen.

You shouldn't speak about basic economic terms and pretend to know something about someone's job, as you did. You don't. And you don't know if I can be replaced or not because you have exactly no idea what I do.

My "boss" is someone who is part of an international company that employs tens of thousands of people worldwide. My immediate "boss" doesn't set the pay scale or decide on the raises any more than I do when the people on my team get raises. You obviously never worked in a big corporation.

Our raises never had anything to do with who was President, and never will. I didn't thank Obama for my huge raise in 2011 because I'm not stupid enough to think he had anything to do with it.

I've never voted for a President based on my income or my happiness in my personal life. I live in America and the President controls neither one. I voted for Reagan in 1980 because I liked him, found him to be honorable, and was inspired by him. Not because of my personal life or money.

You retirement check went up because of the tax cuts? How does that work?

Click to expand...

My tax bracket changed. I retired in 2008. From 2010-2017, my retirement check was out paced by my health insurance. By 2014, I was clearing less than I was the first year I retired. So, it was only by 40+dollars more after the cuts kicked in, but it effected my peace of mind. I'm concerned with things like national security, border security, 2nd amendment issues and so forth. The president has a lot to do with consumer confidence, which effects the economy with things like business owners expanding to make more money, which in turn creates jobs. Cuts on the most draconian regulations also keeps jobs here. The USMCA deal was good for us as well, and it looks like we are making headway in China. I think China would love to see Trump out of there, as he is holding there feet to the fire with these unfair tariffs and trade deals, not to mention intellectual property theft. Again, JMHO. Right now, I don't see how voting for a candidate that will raise taxes, enact more draconian regulations, infringe on my right to keep and bear arms, open our southern border, and go easy on drunk drivers, will benefit me.

This survey and unemployment at 3.5% and you'd think: how could Trump lose?

This will be an interesting race for president.

Just goes to show how much BS the left and the lefty media pump out, who say Democracy is at risk and our nation is falling apart at the seams.

Seems some forget while the economic numbers seem good on the surface they aren't as good as claimed when looked at under a microscope. Not to mention that few actually believe trump had much to do with the situation other than to not mess it up too much.
