When TRUMP wins...

The recession that's been coming is due to Obama.....you know that.

Way, way out beyond clueless. The savage and overt raping is about to be out of all proportion to the minor skimming of the dems, or even the gop.

Trump and the far-right are about to make Reagan and W look like Kennedy's.

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

The final major lesson is that the next President can’t count on the continuation of low interest rates. The Federal Reserve has been Mr. Obama’s best friend not named Chief Justice John Roberts as its monetary policies have helped finance a record debt blowout at lower cost. Mr. Obama issued more Treasurys than any President in history, and the Fed bought $1.7 trillion worth from 2009-2014. That helped guarantee there wouldn’t be a shortage of demand.

This era may be ending as a new President takes office. The Fed may raise rates in December, and bond yields have been rising. Outlays for net interest on the debt increased by $23 billion or 9% in 2016, largely due to faster inflation. But inflation is still tame. If it begins to rise, the debt-financing burden will explode with more than $14 trillion of Treasury debt outstanding, much of it short-term. In January CBO said that if interest rates are 100 basis points above their projections each year for the next decade, the Treasury will have to pay an average of more than $160 billion per year.

None of this adds up to an immediate crisis, but it does illustrate the degree of President Obama’s abdication. He has been the ultimate free-lunch politician, handing out new entitlements, exploiting the post-crisis era of low rates to grow the debt, and passing the bucks to the grandkids.

Mr. Obama once quipped in a meeting with Senators, only half seriously, that he couldn’t fix entitlements on his watch because he had to leave something for his successors. Too bad he’s done nothing except make the problem worse. It’s all yours, President-elect.

The Kremlin announced that Putin had sent a telegram to Trump on Wednesday morning expressing “his hope they can work together toward the end of the crisis in Russian-American relations, as well address the pressing issues of the international agenda and the search for effective responses to global security challenges.”

hawkeye....your filth doesn't faze me.

A real victory by Trump's "people"

All those shocked faces at Clinton HQ should have had a cartoon bubble saying:

"Now where am I gonna get all my free stuff?"

Sounds like a good start to me given that there's a Russian aircraft carrier group off the coast of Syria...

Despite its massive budget, long development cycle and almost constant presence in the news, I can say without doubt that the 2016 U.S. Presidential election is the worst video game I’ve ever played. Period.


A good game is like a good hike or a good road trip: All about the journey, not about the destination. The 2016 U.S. Presidential Election tries to buck that trend—maybe they’re trying to be innovative, I don’t know—and make it all about the destination. The results are predictably bad.

If anything, write to the developers and demand that they make the next release better.
