  1. I like that there’s a clear, coherent strategy with lucid goals and objectives. Americans and the World know exactly what we’re trying to achieve and how we’re going to get there.
  2. Live look at President Xi.
  3. Wonder what Tim Apple had to do to secure this from Dear Leader.
  4. Or listened to him on Stern.
  5. Can’t believe no one has made a sexual joke about mast bumping yet.
  6. Read up on how Adelson influenced the DoJ to reverse federal rulings on online gambling during Trump 1.0. And also: https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/sheldon-adelsons-casino-company-pays-7m-penalty/ https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-the-investigation-of-leading-republican-money-man-sheldon-adelson https://www.nydailynews.com/2013/08/28/sheldon-adelsons-sands-casino-to-pay-47-million-fine-for-failing-to-report-deposits-from-alleged-drug-trafficker/ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/may/23/las-vegas-tycoon-sheldon-adelson-to-face-graft-accusations-in-us-court I can keep going. Bottom line is that this is not a family known for being on the up and up with their business dealings.
  7. Good point. Funny thing is that while not a Trumper, my wife’s friend lives in a super Trumpy part of Denver so it’s what she sees all the time.
  8. My wife showed me a picture on her phone the other day and asked me to guess who it was. I looked at it for several minutes and gave up. Turns out it was one of her best friends who we vacation with once or twice a year. She doesn’t live in the same state as us, so we don’t see her all the time, but this is someone that I’ve known for a long time. She had so much damn filler and Botox and whatever other shit in her face that she was unrecognizable to me. She naturally has a very pretty face, but with all that shit she looked like a fucking alien. I don’t understand why women do that. /derail
  9. We’re rolling in it now!
  10. You know where LBJ’s degree came from, correct?
  11. Fully agree with you there. China is playing this masterfully and we’re sitting around holding our dicks.
  12. I agree with your overall sentiment in this post, but I don’t think his economic advisory team is full of the best and brightest, either. Their guiding light is one Ron Vara, for chrissakes.
  13. Edamame for everyone!
  14. I like that approach. Keep your prices constant and adjust the fee as needed to cover the tariffs. It’s similar to how FedEx and UPS have utilized fuel surcharges.
  15. Pour some gasoline on the affected area and throw a match on it?
  16. Nope, but I’m not the one who believes everything a billionaire says. The Cuban hero worship is weird. He doesn’t give a fuck about you.
  17. Based on Trump’s comments earlier in the week, I think Iran is on deck before we need to worry about China.
  18. Have you seen the audited financial statements of the Mavericks?
  19. Created the account 7 years and 1 day ago and this is the post you jumped in with?
  20. Helicopters can absolutely land after engine failure using autorotation. Have a friend whose son is a helicopter pilot and he went up with him during training when they practiced autorotation. He said it was super unsettling. That said, if the helicopter loses a rotor and tail, well you’re gonna have a bad day.
  21. Keep in mind this is the guy who killed the badass Alaska thread with his shit about his faux chateaux in Montana.
  22. Did he assault a tent?
  23. And it takes a whole lot longer to ramp things up than it takes to shut them down.
  24. It’s a dumb argument. Cuban invested in the business and increased its value more than 10x. He also doesn’t understand that foregoing potential revenue doesn’t equal “losing money.” It was strictly a business decision he would have made to increase the value of the enterprise. Pissing off your customers is a good way to tarnish your brand, as Cuban and the Adelsons are currently seeing firsthand.
