What Did President Trump Do Now?

It might be easy in your area to get away with lying but I see it fairly regularly when they do round ups and end up arrested 30 to 35 people that were caught committing fraud.

Like a drug raid? I hardly believe. Because remember that Old Dirty Bastard publicly cheated the system.

Generally speaking, the only exception to the "environment rule" is people who live in high crime areas where the environment really does have drastic impact on decision making. Having crappy/drug addict parents is not a good excuse.

When you boil it down there are two mindsets (homeless, rich, poor, or middle class):

1) Make it, spend it, f*ck it, you only live once
2) Always put something aside just in case, the future matters

Anyone in category one is not someone I want to be supporting. Living beyond your means is not justification for being a mooch.

Almost as funny as the fact that he thinks he's going to be in one term.

Nothing is ever that simple. People have to know this by now.

It's a generalization.

If you have a 3rd, 4th, 5th group you think is worth mentioning then feel free, but in my 30 years life experience those 2 descriptions are pretty easily applied to everyone I've ever met.

No I just think there are varying degrees between the two.

24 Orange County residents charged with welfare fraud - News - recordonline.com - Middletown, NY

This is a local paper. When I googled it to show you this article. It seems like they have an article like this every year but I feel like the sweeps happen more often than that. It just isn't as press worthy.

Not even close to the same thing.

He'll abolish the office of President and set himself up as Lord Protector for Life or something.

Tillerson is actually a rather interesting move for Secretary Of State. The guy literally crawled to the top of Exxon Mobil from pretty much nothing after all, which isn't something I can say for most of the entitlement-culture politicians we tend to get in these cabinet positions. He's nothing if not tenacious, and I can respect that.

His "ties" to Russia could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on what we do with it. Rex is the one holding the cards in their relationship (I'm assuming some of you are familiar with how he helped OAO Rosneft)...which is something we could be using as leverage if we want their cooperation in dealing with Saudi Arabia, ISIS, etc.

I don't take a moral stance on anything in regards to politics: as far as I'm concerned, we've never had a leader who hasn't fucked up in some fundamental way, including Bill Clinton and Obama. I'll be watching the next four years with great interest.
