Hillary Clinton: Nowhere girl
Her economic plan would leave the U.S. flirting with recession

He needs to state he’ll propose immediate across-the-board Federal spending cuts, defense included (but apparently not DoT) - and show a balanced budget in 4-8 years.
...like the rest of us 20-99%ers must do every day for the last 8 years.
“across-the-board Federal spending cuts, defense included”.
If trump ever proposed cutting the defense budget, the media would have a field day with that statement since he has been proposing to make America’s military strong by building it, not depleting it. Like all budgets, there are things that can/should be cut, Trumps support for our military will more than likely NOT be reduced.
“Trumps support for our military will more than likely NOT be reduced.”
You’re right on the politics.
He could increase for troops,VA, and weapons, but the amount of waste there, as we all know, is unreal.
Also, I’m assuming he’s cutting back on overseas commitments like Japan and Europe (making them pay) - but maybe can’t assume savings there yet.
Trump will abandon NAFTA, the WTO, and I assume all the other free trade agreements. So what will international trade look like under a Trump administration?
NAFTA and TPP are omnibus, multi-nation trade bills. Trade under Trump will likely consist of trade agreements with individual nations on a one-by-one basis.
Here is the main difference between Trump and Clinton: If WHAT EVER Trump implements doesn’t work it will be adjusted until it DOES work. Trump ought to hit this point hard.
Hillary doesn’t even have to campaign. She gets a free pass from the media. She’s probably already calling movers to prepare for her move to the White House.
Unbelievable how the liberal media is destroying this nation. They are so biased and don’t hold democrats accountable.
Don’t count on it. She will lose support when she has to stand face to face against Trump in the debates...
Judge Jeanine’s epic rant on Hillary

And until those agreements are negotiated? What then? What happens to trade between the U.S. and Canada or the U.S. and Mexico once the U.S. cancels NAFTA but before a new agreement can be negotiated? Same with the U.S. and Europe once the U.S. leaves the WTO? Or the U.S. and Korea once that trade agreement is ended?
Wow! I’m impressed, Kaslin. A thread that clearly shows support for Trump—rather than your usual borderline material that makes Trump look questionable.
I believe that our trade needs to be managed in ways that increase us, not decrease us.
While sounding rather cliche, it is important to note that the WTO has the power to over-rule our trade policies, tax polices, and probably other policies. We surrendered our decision making to it.
At least one other nation filed suit against the U. S. for unfairly tilting the table in it’s business policies, that the other nation saw as creating an unfair situation. In their eyes it made our companies more cost efficient, and that was deemed an unfair competitive advantage.
What was the supposed infraction? The U. S. didn’t tax profits for companies that had already been taxed on them in a foreign nation.
That sounds pretty darned reasoned to me, but the W. T. O. ruled in favor of the other nation. Our tax policies were deemed an unfair advantage.
Should this sort of thing be able to take place, our self-determination abandoned in favor of some collective? NO!
This decreases us. It carves out part of our self-determination.
I would never sign an agreement that saw our ability to set our own policies, diminished.
China demands to be provided the full schematics of anything that is going to be manufactured there. So our corporations turn over those schematics and all patent information for items used in it’s processes.
We GAVE China at least a fifty year jump in technology, and perhaps quite a bit longer, by sending our manufacturing there. Who got the better end of that deal?
Our cities are decaying and theirs have all seen incredible building and resurgence.
These concepts and the corrections needed, are central to a more sound trade concept.
I don’t mind multi-nation trade agreements, but I’d sure write them a lot differently. We have damaged ourselves at the benefit of some nations that want to destroy us, or at the very least usurp us on the global stage.
We have essentially pulled the plug on our nation...
This S has to stop.
Video did not work, but worth visiting, as her excellent rant is printed out.
Of course it works (just checked again). Must be your computer/player.

Go, Trump, GO!
Good Stuff!
These are both SRI. In the past they would make an appointment for him to see the otolaryngologist and the ophthalmologist.
Today we were informed that he needed to first have an appointment with a VA medical doctor to get a referral to see the ear and eye doctor.
These are not new injuries, the VA has been treating him for those items for ten years.
He has a civilian PCP that he sees for anything not an SRI. That is the way he prefers it.
Now they are telling him that he HAS to see a VA doctor for a checkup every year or he can not get his hearing and eyes treated.
So the VA is trying to force veterans to make their facilities their primary facilities under the threat of other wise their getting no treatment at all.
BTW since we have medical insurance this forced checkup will be billed to our insurance.
My comment on point 1, the “liberal” parties in the US (Decomcrats) and Canada (Liberals) are no longer for the middle class. They are now the part of the non-working lower class, the uber wall street rich who survive on government bail outs or looking the other way, and invading “minorities” from Mexico and Muslim lands. It is the GOP and Conservative parties now (not always or all of them) who are left to look after the middle class. Even then there are the cheap labor express portions of these 2 parties that are also giving the middle class the middle finger.
