This thread sure has evolved.

I've said it many times; Best thing about trump is he kept the economy moving in the same direction it was given to him.
It seems, with things going so well, a good conservative republican would address the national debt. Maybe the new republicans believe debt is only a concern when there's a dem in the White house?[/quote]
You voted for O and are preaching about debt.....laughable. [/quote]

No, I voted for Obama because of what he did to turn things around from where the dick/bush pair had left them. I did not vote for him for his first term.

I voted for the dude we have in the office now because I thought HE would do something about the debt. he promised he would-he lied. he promised he'd show his taxes -he lied. He said he'd do something about the healthcare in this country-he lied(repeal and replace became just repeal). he trusts putin more than our intelligence agency. ...he has shown us all that he is a foul, petty, dishonest man. He will not get another vote from me.

I wonder how donors to the republican party feel about the $95,000+ that the party spent to buy copies of trump's son's book so that it could make the NYT best seller list?

Anybody pushing for negative interest rates could care less about debt.

They reported today Michael Bloomberg has entered the race. He could spend what Trump is worth and not even notice it gone.
That debate would be fun to watch.

Jim,

I always enjoy reading your cordial, witty debates sir.

Through the marvels of technology (iPhone), I'm here in south Texas, sitting on my buggy, thousands of miles from you and your state's unparalleled beauty and splendor of Creation (my wife and I list Alaska as the most beautiful state we've visited) and I dial into TMan and read your thread submissions.

You are probably correct that money is beneath many of man's motives.

My father is a retired attorney, and it was at times, very handy having legal counsel in the house.

I wish all on Tman, from all sides of the aisles, all colors and all creeds, a very blessed Thanksgiving. May your traps be full of prime pelts and may the skinning be easy and the selling fun!

Pay attention Jim we are talking about news and the economy, so we have to talk about economic indicators. The term is math. Not money. Though people seem to rate the national economy on how well their personal financial situation did/does.

Numbers matter....For your entertainment.

Best thing about trump is he kept the economy moving in the same direction it was given to him.

That there is BS! He is moving it upward!!
