    I get the feeling that most of QBN is pretty liberal. But it's the 4 conservatives and whatever yurimon is that are the most vocal in the politics thread.

    • reminds me of the android peeps being the most vocal in the apple thread ;)monospaced
    • im not a conservative :(yurimon
    • nobody said you weremonospaced
    • right here, that ismonospaced

    How Donald Trump Ditched U.S. Steel Workers in Favor of China
    http://www.newsweek.com/how-dona…

    • Many designers have succumbed to the same pressures in choosing their materials for projects they are working on.
      ********
    • These sound like issues we should be blaming on our current president. Instead of victimizing the innocent.
      ********
    • Trump will be bring back the jobs he outsourced to China...and Make Murica Great Again!utopian
    • Trump buying Chinese steel has something to do with Obama?! lolformed
    • Ohhh omgRamanisky2
    • formed. technically it is the responsibility of each company, but writing an article like this is indicating that it is wrong to outsource jobs.
      ********
    • or wrong to buy materials from other countries.
      ********
    • so if you have an issue with it, why blame DT when he's not even the president. Or Apple since they probably buy more from China than DT.
      ********
    • The issue, just like his taxes, is his two-faced lies. He points at Apple, at people not paying taxes and ridicules them as the "downfall of America"formed
    • and yet he does it all the time.
      I have no problem outsourcing, I do have a problem with a liar that feeds on hate and fear.
      formed
    • He never lied as he has informed people that he outsources his materials because major manufacturers have moved there with cheaper costs.
      ********
    • he wants to change things, but how can he before a presidency, the criticisms don't make sense.
      ********
    • for example, if i think we should use solar power for cars, but here I am using gas. i'm not being two faced. if none exists in my price range.
      ********
    • If you give me $150,000 then I will gladly get myself a Tesla.
      ********
    • Under the circumstances, it would be unfeasible to blame Trump in leading by example via outsourcing till after his presidency.
      ********
    • He's a pathetic hypocrite at best. How can he chastise and point out people and companies as destroying America when he's doing it himself??formed
    • It's his choice, you make it sounds like he had no choice, that's ridiculous. How you can defend him is beyond me.formed
    • He hasn't informed people, he's lied and rants total bs that fools suck up like candy.formed
    • There is no "change". No one will pay $2000 for a US made iphone. He's not a fool, he knows that, he's just feeding the candy to the kiddies.formed
    • I'm not defending him, rather trying to understand something that doesn't make sense. Usually when people have a different point of view, I find his words....
      ********
    • ...get taken out of context. I've never heard him hypocritically chastise other companies for outsourcing. However, I have heard him point out companies who...
      ********
    • ... have taken their companies to China, or have outsourced as examples of America losing a battle in foreign trade, resulting in loss of jobs.
      ********
    • I would be more concerned in how he plans on making that change happen in the future, rather than seeing how he handle these matters in the past.
      ********
    • Or maybe he is just full of shit? That would be the simplest explanation.yuekit
    • He has indeed called out companies for outsourcing and asked his followers to boycott them, while doing the same thing himself.yuekit
    • Of course just a couple years ago he also said Hillary was very qualified, a great friend of his and would make a great president.yuekit
    • yuekit, he was joking, obviously... do you not get sarcasm?monospaced
  • ********

    ... he tweets to his 12,000,000 followers.

    • Anyone care to explain why they announce this?
      ********
    • I don't know, but maybe this is common knowledge in Mosul already considering the situation and all.monospaced
    • interesting point. although nb seems to be blaming Trump for amplifying the stupidity of the media.
      ********
    • "Iraq (U.S.)" - Trump
      ********
    • He's amplifying the stupidity of trump who tweets shit he thinks is a big deal without looking into it first.monospaced
    • he gets intelligence briefings.yurimon
    • and tweets them?monospaced
    • he tweeted an existing announcement. you really are stretching here. so embarrassing that you guy have no substance but to complain about minor crapyurimon
    • sorry what am I stretching here, and what am I complaining about? please let me know, because I missed thatmonospaced

    • fapping is not evil or demeaning in Buddhism ma friend. unless you believe in the original sin ma friendyurimon
    • I didn't say it was! I'm not even hung up on the word. I'm referring only to your style of personal attack, which wasn't harmonious or loving in any way.monospaced
    • but of course, we don't expect you to live up to anything you say (preach?), because all of it has turned out to be bs anyway.monospaced
    • and please, this isn't an attack on you, it's just pure observation of your actual activities... nothing I'm saying is imagined or warped in any waymonospaced
    • this isn't senseless talk, or a "mode of ignorance," this is just one observation I've made of you since your post last week where you said you expect harmonymonospaced

    Donald Trump's charitable foundation has been ordered by New York's attorney general to stop fundraising.

    Prosecutors issued a "notice of violation" after determining the foundation had no proper registration.

    “Trump sniffing may have been a sign of the Holy Spirit coming out of him,” said Robertson on “The 700 Club.” “The Holy Spirit affects people in strange ways. Some people go into a frenzy, some people start laughing uncontrollably, some people bark like dogs. Apparently, Trump sniffs.”

    Many Evangelical Christians believe Trump, a thrice married former casino owner who appeared on the cover of Playboy, has been ordained by God. According to Right Wing Watch, Lance Wallnau, an Evangelical Christian, told Charisma magazine, that Trump’s decision to hire Kellyanne Conway and Breitbart CEO Steve Bannon was divinely motivated.

    Trump's campaign largely relies on his attempts to make himself relatable to the common man, the poor, the out-of-work, the middle class, or, to convey that he has any understanding of their lives and needs.

    I've slowly been making a list of all the things "normal," non filthy-rich people born into wealth do in their lives that Trump stands no chance of having ever done in his life. Want to add to it?

    • Ran out of toilet paper and had nobody to bring him any.
