The media is pissed today because they had a can of whoop a$$ yesterday...they will be writing heaven knows what now just to get back at him or even with him, but he has proved he doesn't need the media, talking heads or pundits, he has face book; twitter; instagram; snap chat; and other outlets that are modern day...

Days of the media is over; people have cut cable, hardly ever watch T.V. anymore, and the radio have proved to be a handy tool...a lot can get done by listening to people like Rush, Sean, Dave Ramsey, people like that...

We don't buy magazines anymore, and we don't get newspapers anymore, waste of money...besides you can come here and read what trash the media is putting out, someone on here will post it...so media are over, done, gone, in the garbage can...

Revisiting infinity:
If an infinite number of liberals typed an infinite number of Trump stories for an infinite number of years, every article would still be complete drivel.

Funny. 7 of the 10 wealthiest counties I believe surround Washington DC. Last time I was through there, I don't recall seeeing any type of major industry (such as manufacturing).

I did see finance and government buildings however.

A factually dishonest article, typical of the Wash Compost. The entire county-wide analysis is based on “richness” as defined by GDP contribution of a county. Therefore there is a bias towards urban centers because GDP will be concentrated there since most corporate and govt. headquarters, along with the most retail centers will be found there. This also results in the most employment.

Likewise, most manufacturing processing is in urban centers as well because of the concentration of infrastructure, utilities, transportation, retail centers, etc. However, much of the raw material and agriculture extraction efforts will be in rural counties, but the greatest contribution from these efforts will show up in GDP in the processing centers, which are mostly in the large urban areas. All this leads to a bias in the entire reporting. In fact, I am surprised that there is not a greater disparity in the total GDP numbers. This just shows that small business is still very important in 2/3 of the country, accounting for about 1/3 of total GDP.

More fake news from leftist frauds. The “Brookings Institution” has been flacking for communism for as long as I remember.

Three to seven million illegal aliens voted for Hillary, and she stole at least five states.

That is exactly right. If something is not done, we will de facto be run by the policies of Mexico.

Yeah, step away from pounding the keys, idiots, and look at the stock market and the appointments going on in the Trump administration. And tell me again how the economy would flourish under Seize-and-freeze Hillary?

” Trump won w/ electoral votes while losing the nationwide vote to Clinton by 1.7 million votes and counting.

This so much balderdash. Clinton did not “win” the popular vote”

Well, she sure didn’t win the CITIZEN popular vote. Anchor babies, who get the vote at 400,000 PER YEAR and illegal aliens are who voted for HIllary. SHe’d be challenging the results if she didn’t know this. CALIFORNIA.

“... while losing the nationwide vote to Clinton by 1.7 “

which number includes at least 3,000,000 illegally cast votes...mostly in California and almost certainly all for Clinton...soooooo...she DIDN’T win the popular vote.

Trump really schlonged Hillary by winning 2600 counties to less then 500 for the beast. Liberals want those few counties to control the vast majority of the country.

Why would this not be one more RICO violation?

This administration has rung tax payers dry and redirected these settlement funds, from corporate organizations extortion activities, to hate groups like La Raza or the old ACORN communist inspired religionists.

End it.

This is why Popular Vote is not the law of the land. Killary won all the big cities, run by RATS.

Nevada is probably the best example. Killary won the counties surrounding Las Vegas and Reno. Every other county is red. Yet, Killary won the state:

God bless our Founding Fathers for foreseeing this possibility and establishing the Electorial College to combat this.

Most people commute to work from suburbs and exurbs that did go for Trump. A business building does not vote.
