Lewandowski: NY Times Editor Should Be Jailed For Publishing Trump Taxes

Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Corey Lewandowksi on Thursday called for the New York Times’ executive editor to be jailed for releasing some pages of the President-elect’s tax returns. (via Lewandowski: NY Times Editor Should Be Jailed For Publishing Trump Taxes) Calling for the jailing of journalists is not normal.

Seduced and Betrayed by Donald Trump – The New York Times

by looking at Census data from 2013 to 2015, which show the impact of the full implementation of Obamacare. Over that period, the number of uninsured Americans dropped by 13 million; whites without a college degree, who voted Trump by around two to one, accounted for about eight million of that decline. So we’re probably… Continue reading Seduced and Betrayed by Donald Trump – The New York Times

Trump Backers Go to Court to Block Vote Recounts in 3 States

“In an election already tainted by suspicion, previously expressed by Donald Trump himself,” she said, “verifying the vote is a common-sense procedure that would put all concerns around voter disenfranchisement to rest. Trump’s desperate attempts to silence voter demands for recounts raise a simple question: why is Donald Trump afraid of these recounts?”

Trump’s $7MM deal with Indiana and Carrier has a -102.9% ROI

Someone on reddit did the math on the Carrier deal. It’s a bad deal.

More importantly, it’s the opposite of what Trump ran on. Tough guy Trump talked about taxing companies that moved jobs to Mexico. Here he is giving them money while they move a net 200 jobs to Mexico.

An ethical double standard for Trump — and the GOP?

“If Hillary Clinton wins this election and they don’t shut down the Clinton Foundation and come clean with all of its past activities, then there’s no telling the kind of corruption that you might see out of the Clinton White House,” Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) told conservative talk show host Hugh Hewitt.

Presumably Cotton will take the lead in advising Donald Trump to “shut down” his business activities and “come clean” on what came before. Surely Cotton wants to be consistent.

TheMoneyIllusion » Trump favors teasier money

So what are Trump’s views? Very simple. For elderly savers, Trump favors higher interest rates. For big developers, he favors low rates. For consumers, he wants a strong dollar. For exporters, he wants a weaker dollar. Each group will get what they want, but not all in the same universe. You see, Trump’s monetary views are best described as a wave function, which will collapse to a single outcome on January 20th. Trump is the first post-modern candidate, the first to understand that truth is what the voters let you get aways with, and that the multiverse offers the possibility of achieving seemingly irreconcilable aims.

Up is down, rich is poor

When Ivanka was a kid, she got frustrated because she couldn’t set up a lemonade stand in Trump Tower. “We had no such advantages,” she writes, meaning, in this case, an ordinary home on an ordinary street. She and her brothers finally tried to sell lemonade at their summer place in Connecticut, but their neighborhood… Continue reading Up is down, rich is poor

The ‘alt-right’ splinters as supporters and critics agree it was white supremacy all along – LA Times

When people start throwing Nazi salutes in public, it has a way of clarifying where everybody stands. (via The ‘alt-right’ splinters as supporters and critics agree it was white supremacy all along – LA Times) … Some white nationalists themselves have a term for the split: the alt-right versus the “alt-lite.” Yep.

Paul Krugman: 5.5 million Trump voters could lose health care — because they voted for him

As Krugman notes, 6 million non-Hispanic whites gained insurance between 2013 and 2015; considering 66 percent of white people without a college degree (and therefore likely uninsured before Obamacare) voted for Trump, Krugman reasons at least 3.96 million non-college educated Trump voters will lose their insurance.

Sure you’ll lose your healthcare, but think of the tax cuts coastal elites will get.
