Trump 47

Rand Paul tries to speak sense to Larry Kudlow on tariffs: "We're getting $2 trillion in taxes on top of all the other taxes that we have. So ultimately conservatives have to decide -- do they like taxes because they're Donald Trump's taxes?"

 
Can anybody guess what other historical leader put his party in charge of the Olympics in order to spread their propaganda?

This was my EXACT THOUGHT when it was announced the party of small government would be taking over things and Trump would personally be in charge.

Seriously though, hes the flipping president. I would like to think he has better things to do than micromanage a sporting event. Also, if the IOC says screw this and moves them to a different country last minute, does that turn Okies against him? Losing Olympics softball would be a HUGE deal if that happened.
 
During the signing event, LA28 president and chair Casey Wasserman presented Trump with a set of gold, silver and bronze medals from the 1984 Olympic Games, which were held in Los Angeles.

“Can I say I won them athletically?” Trump asked, as he displayed the medals to an audience of reporters.

in a rare moment, tRump asks if he can lie...all he had to do was go ahead and lie, like usual; and his minions would ´hook, line, and sinker´...

He could shoot their dog and tell them the dog was a liberal because it depended on their handouts for food, and they wouldn't turn against him.

US Senator John Cornyn says Trump’s FBI Director Kash Patel has approved his request to deploy FBI agents to hunt down Democratic state lawmakers who refuse to take part in Trump’s illegal Texas gerrymander.

I’m not aware of any other time in the 117-year history of the bureau when federal law enforcement agents were used to round up lawmakers for political reasons. If true, this marks a chilling abuse of power for an already out-of-control presidency.

 
President Trump said on Thursday that he told the Commerce Department to begin work on a new census that does not include people who are in the U.S. illegally. Follow more updates here.

So what are they going to do, lock them in the legislative chambers so they can vote? This seems kinda like kidnapping.

And let's be honest, this is a political stunt. The dems in Texas have at least a 20 year history of skipping town when there is a vote on something they really don't like. Eventually they will be back in chambers and the vote will happen. If the Republicans were smart they would ignore it, go into recess and spring it when they have the chance. The way they are going about this between threatening legislators and using federal authorities to round them up just looks ugly.

Yeah, he can't do that. He tried to during his first term and was told he couldn't. One of the darker moments in our history is the 3/5ths compromise. It was beyond reprehensible but it established that everyone here, regardless of status gets counted.

And even if he could it won't happen fast enough to impact mid terms. The census bureau would have to draft short and long forms and have them approved. They would need to hire thousands of federal workers before they got to even hiring the actual census takers. Everyone needs to be tested and trained. I was in college during the 2000 census and got a job as a census taker. I had to take a basic skills test as part of the application process and I know for a fact that they have a bunch of applicants who dont know things like math or if assault with a deadly weapon is a felony. It takes time to week through all of the applicants.

Even if they pull off the physical census in 12 months, the data would still have to be evaluated and states will have to figure out how to parse out new districts. That takes months to figure out.
