    Anyway. Solid economic policy speech yesterday. The tax credits will go a long way for families to say nothing of it being the only reasonable (and non weird) way to help promote the American birth rate. 
    It's funny, I was driving home from DC last night and flipped to CNN on XM because I had already ingested 3 hours of Grateful Dead shows, so I need some reality.  Anyways, the right wing person said something to the effect of, "You know there are details there, but not enough.  She isn't telling us how she is going to build a coalition to pass these proposals, so it's just empty rhetoric".  

    What a bunch of crap and goal post movement.  As if Donald Trump has explained the coalition to make tips non-taxable or "be the protector of women" or whatever BS comes to him in the middle of a speech.  She has plenty of specific for a candidate, as much or more as anyone has.  It's not like candidates routinely tick off the crossover votes they will get and how to overcome a filibuster.  
    They are 100% correct, but also 100% Hypocrites for sure.

    The media should be pushing these candidates far more on the "How".
    But you know that's not a practical expectation.  No one knows what any coalition will look like after these elections.  Who controls the senate?  Will it be subject to cloture, and therefore not filibuster?  Will it be a D or R speaker so will a bill even hit the floor?  These are not answerable questions and frankly I would not want the media to spend time in that red tape.  
    I think in a more utopian society, we would have the media asking more of the "how" will things get done questions though.

    But that would entail a dramatic change in how the media covers politics. Now it's all about the horse race and the specifics of polices and how they will be implemented is barely covered. 

    Can you imagine anyone in Trump's base giving a shit about how the no tax on tips thing or the cutting their insurance thing would have any shot of actually happening? These are the same people who thought Mexico was going to pay for a border wall simply because Trump told them so. 


    I’d argue it would require a dramatic shift in how most ‘Muricans consume information and what they want to hear and see. Policy discussions of the details put most people to sleep and they only have attention spans capable of 140 characters or less. The media gives us what we want and what most seem to want is Faux rage and sound bites. The majority of voters aren’t interested nor capable of understanding the wonk and what it takes to make it happen.
    Yeah, agreed. So essentially this will never happen.

    Yeah I hear that.  And in reality what it would take would be politicians tipping their hand on what they would be willing to give up…taking the negotiations public. So yeah, maybe not really practical.

    At what point will his followers get the message that he sees them as rubes who can be manipulated into buying any trash with his name on it and blindly believing every lie he utters? This guy is the ultimate con artist/grifter.

    some are $499. But there's a limited one of 147 watches for $100,000. and also this little tidbit: 

    A disclaimer on the website discloses that neither Trump nor his company designed, manufactured, distributed or sold the watches. Rather, a company named “TheBestWatchesOnEarth LLC” licensed the Trump name to sell the line of wrist watches.

    I'm fairly certain that company is a spin-off of either Breitling or Audemers Piguet.  With a name like that, it just screams quality.

    I would prefer a Hunter Biden painting over a Trump watch any day. Especially if you get to spend time with the big guy.

    Yet another reason why I would not vote for Hunter or Trump.  They are both criminals.

    yeah i prefer my presidential candidates to be lazy, without ambitions or aspirations.

    also i want them to be lazy thinkers that do not comprehend that the parts of something are nuanced and interconnected to the whole.
