An Open Letter to the Colluding Press

That would be a highly biased source. It is like when Christians fundamentalists, those against same sex marriage, they could find people who would agree with them.

The economy would still be doing really close to what it is doing now under HRC. It really is that simple. The only difference is, that she would not have likely traded our environment for a few extra jobs that would have likely opened up anyway.

If you had read the article it would be impossible for you to have come to the above conclusion.

Read the article.

OMG, job growth in a full employed economy is not nearly as great as it would be in a recession but Obama's job growth was 6 million in 9 years and that is a disaster. You want to ignore the millions of jobs that were lost during the Obama term and stimulus cherry picking the starting date. the starting date for Obama was based upon his campaign promise of getting us back to pre recession levels which was 146 million employed. Employed people pay taxes, jobs being created are part of that.

But you are right, when you post job creation that is any kind of job creation which includes part time for economic reasons. when the recession began that was 4.7 million and during the Obama recovery it was over 8 million so those people were counted as employed and you are taking victory laps over part time employees paying less than full time taxes. Only a leftist believes that 146 million employed with 8 million of them part time for economic reasons is a good economic result.

A check is a form of payment NOT an IOU and is reimbursable for cash. You think the grocery store is going to take your IOU and accept it as payment? Where did you get your education and why such loyalty to liberalism. You a member of the liberal elite or Obama administration? You simply cannot admit you are wrong.

You seem to want to focus on job growth and not employment. Again how do you grow jobs at full employment? You don't you change the jobs into full time positions which Trump has done
Click to expand...

If you believe a check is not an IOU then you are a bigger idiot than I thought you were. Again you have to use job growth number from BLS NOT the total number of people that are employed over 16 for reasons previously and stated. You are in desperate need of some education on statistics and economics. A check is an IOU. A bank statement is a IOU. They both represent money that is not real i.e. cash. A check is not as good as cash. That is why many merchants refuse to take checks. Checks are not payment. They are in lieu of payment you ****ing idiot.

Look, how about being honest for a change,, what is it exactly that you want out of the investigation and what purpose would it serve as Hillary said during Benghazi? You want Trump Impeached? Why would you put the country through that when we have an election in November 2020 which is how long this issue is going to last. Run a viable candidate if there is such a candidate that promotes the private sector and get rid of Trump who isn't on the ballot in November so why would you vote against the economic results we have today?

Chaos is what the Russians wanted and chaos is what Impeachment would do as the private sector has generated the results Obama never could generate and that must drive the left crazier than normal.

Sorry, you don't have a clue, take your IOU to the grocery store and see what happens. Call me names all you want but that doesn't make you any smarter but it does divert from the thread topic.

I am using employment because employment matters not job growth which is included in the employment number as employed people pay taxes and that is what matters, Full time employees pay a lot more than part time employees but are included in the job growth and employment numbers. You simply are too biased and partisan buying the leftwing rhetoric no matter how bad it makes you look

Educate yourself for a change

So when the govt. buys back those IOU's where does the money come from? Who exactly is the idiot boy?

I don't see Trump defacing public property or staging protests around the nation, only radical leftists. Please cite the campaign law that states a private individual cannot spend whatever they want wherever they want? You have been indoctrinated by the left. You will have a chance in 2020 to get rid of Trump, why is impeachment so important to you now?

Because he is a criminal that is weakening and dividing this country. His betrayal must be stopped and soon. Our country depends on it. I will settle for neutering him with investigations and trials of his cohorts that will be the death knell for the GOP though. Is that what you prefer? Think Benghazi times 100.

He IS President of the United States and convicted of nothing. You have a chance to get rid of him in 2020 so why the impatience now, what exactly has he done that has hurt you, your family, or the country. Address the results posted in this OP. There will be plenty of time to prosecute after he leaves office. You are so partisan and so full of hatred that logic and common sense escapes you. Rather sad to see someone so dedicated to the destruction of someone else and living life in such misery. I truly feel sorry for you, does that make me a liberal?

You simply aren't mature enough to admit when wrong, you don't know the difference between an IOU and a Promissory note

An IOU differs from a promissory note in that an
IOU is not a negotiable instrument

and does not specify repayment terms such as the time of repayment. IOUs usually specify the debtor, the amount owed, and sometimes the creditor. IOUs may be signed or carry distinguishing marks or designs to ensure authenticity.

So you can't understand what you wrote either...hehe... Alright, I don't feel so bad now.

Ignore me, or don't, bud...I'd never ignore you, you are too fun. But if you only want to interact with people that are going to agree with you, you should probably ignore a whole bunch of us... ;)

My definition of interference includes

intrusion, intervention, intercession, involvement, meddling, prying; informal butting in
None of which is illegal and none of which changed any votes and none of which provides action.

Don't give a crap about rhetoric never has and never will. Learn to trust BUT VERIFY is what I was taught so tell me how the Russian propaganda affected you. It certainly didn't change my vote

I am sure you have heard of the latest Russian cyber-attacks, uncovered by Microsoft recently. They were on conservative think tanks and organizations. Would THIS fit your definition?

"Microsoft said on Tuesday that it’s detected and seized six websites targeting the U.S. Senate and conservative think tanks, which were created by hackers linked to the Russian military intelligence unit that tried to influence the 2016 election. Other nations may be making similar cyberattacks on the U.S., but Microsoft and other tech firms have only reported evidence of Russia’s election-meddling efforts.

For the past two years, Microsoft has been waging a legal battle against the Russian hacking group that targeted Democrats in the 2016 election, which is known as Strontium, Fancy Bear, or APT28. Last year the company obtained court approval to seize fake domains created by the Russians, going on to shut down 78 of these sites.

Last week Microsoft took over six more: three fake domains mimicking the Senate, one modeled after a generic Microsoft site, and two meant to look like conservative think tanks the Hudson Institute or the International Republican Institute."...

The site could have been used to trick people working at those institutions to click on the fake links, which would redirect them to a page where hackers would attempt to steal their passwords and other information.

For months, senior U.S. intelligence officials in the Trump administration have been warning of Russian attempts to interfere in the midterm elections. “We continue to see a pervasive messaging campaign by Russia to try to weaken and divide the United States,” Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats told reporters earlier this month.

You still think anyone raising any alarms about this and wanting something done is spewing hate? Or, as long as the economy is good and we keep denying children from war-torn countries any asylum, it's all good and we can just turn a blind eye to it all?

It's not America first. It's America alone. He has basically cussed out and insulted every leader of every country on the entire planet... except Putin, of course.

The Founders gave us a means to rid ourselves of false prophets and criminals that happen to get elected President. You are abdicating your duty as an American if you don't want us to use our Constitution as it was intended. You have lost your way I'm afraid. Your blind tribalism and greed has possessed your soul. It will not go unpunished.

Sounds like a serious problem to be addressed, what exactly does this have to do with the election and the Russian Propaganda? still waiting for what you would like to see happen? You want Trump Impeached? Do you give a damn what it does to the country or is your ideology that strong that you truly don't give a damn and are so selfish. There is plenty of time to prosecute Trump, why now and where is the evidence or even the legal charges. This has nothing to do with Trump regardless of what you want to believe

Then so be it, sick and tired of the leftwing bull****, the massive foreign trade deficits, the foreign manipulation of currency, and foreign countries using of American tax dollars for their own defense while promoting a socialist ideology. It is about damn time an American President stood up to this bull****.

I am worried about your mental state and conspiracy theories. Trump has done absolutely NOTHING to hurt this country as the results show, results you continue to ignore. Rather sad to see someone so blinded by hatred that they cannot see the reality of what is happening around your country today. Millions of Americans are working, our economy is booming, tax revenue is growing and the best you can do is try to destroy a President when the election in 2020 is good enough to do that.
