But you mistake the ability to create personal wealth, often by gaming the system, with someone who understands how to make the economy work for everybody. Those are two very very very different things. Warren Buffett is another who is personally very wealthy, and yet his policy positions are abject disasters for the country.

I would bet you fell for Perot’s bullsh-t too....now that I think about it. Not that you would admit it.

Trump is an economic populist liberal in many ways - he agrees with Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum on a lot of economic issues, and they are all economic liberals.

The reason your Bush analogy was absurd is that I never pointed to Bush as someone who was a good economic President, and certainly not based on his personal successes.

Oh, remember this? Trump said Obama would make a GREAT President in 2008. Did you say that with him?

“But you mistake the ability to create personal wealth... with someone who understands how to make the economy work for everybody.”

No. My point was that a stupid person cannot accrue that kind of wealth. People were calling him stupid.

“I would bet you fell for Perot’s bullsh-t too....now that I think about it. Not that you would admit it.”

I agreed with what he said (he was right about NAFTA) as much as I can remember. I voted for Bush. Perot was the reason Clinton won, as I predicted.

“Trump is an economic populist liberal in many ways... Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum ...”

I don’t care at all for Huckabee or Santorum, don’t know enough about them to comment.

“The reason your Bush analogy...”

I thought I explained that. When a conversation gets going, most people just interject thoughts and do not recapitulate every previous comment. I can’t remember or understand why you found that so offensive. I don’t like Bush either.

“Oh, remember this? Trump said Obama would make a GREAT President in 2008.”

No!!! I like Trump for his boldness and fighting spirit and what he preaches about this country. You want ever see a talking head cow him. Also, there is an article on Drudge this morning that states that there are over 27 million foreign born workers in the United States. My complaint last night was that Cruz, who I used to like, voted with Obama on trade, calls for more legal immigration, and for more H-1B vistas, which will finish off the country. Who, in their right mind, would give Obama more power? It is beyond comprehension. Finally, is it possible for honest people to honestly disagree, without all the venom?
