    There is no one who can be talked to by a civilian who knows how many times Obama or Trump or anyone else has talked to Putin. Trump towers? Do you really really think that another real estate deal is more important to the president than the safety of an entire country?
    1. The closer we come to having a major conflict with another super power the farther away any type of financial deal with another nation is made possible.
    2. Why the heck build a tower that will probably get destroyed by any one of many of Russia’s enemies including......us.
    3. Trump isn’t an idiot especially when it comes to $.

    That said, D. Trump did say something to the effect that he wanted to create a better relationship with the leader of Russia as well as N. Korea and China. Matter of fact, he said it many times when he was running for president.
    Does it sound reasonable to negate any conversation with our political enemies? Heck no!

    “Keep our friends close and our enemies even closer”.

    I don't trust Trump and don't trust the Russians. And as far as money smarts and Trump he's got a long list of business ventures gone south.

    Have you ever owned a business? Any business? Every time a person invests even one cent in a business, that person is already in the red.
    Now, instead of just one cent and one investment, make it a dollar and invest one cent in a hundred ventures. How many of those ventures are you going to make money at? For only a small amount of money, one should be able to come out with at least 2 cents on each venture but probably not. One or two investments (or more) are going to lose money but do that same thing and start with a simple couple of million dollars like Trump did.

    Over a span of many investments, Trump lost some and some made money but between the losses and the money makers he built a multi-Billion dollar empire out of a relatively small amount of start up money.

    Could you do the same or would you more than likely end up like a whole lot of people who hit a multimillion dollar lottery and lose it in the first year?

    I get it Joy. Nothing that Trump does is going to be good enough for you. If he had beat anyone else but Hillary for the presidency it would all be hunky dory. That’s the point isn’t it? He beat Hillary and that grinds you gears so bad that you can’t stand it. If God Himself had run for president and won against your “woman president” you would find fault in that too.
    You want a woman president and nothing is going to be good enough unless of course, it’s another black guy. No matter the qualifications, it has to be a female.
    Yup, I get it and wish you well. I do write again, I do wish Nicki Haley would run but nope, she’s not and I can’t see another qualified female who I would vote for at this point.
    Maybe you should run............

    uh....do you know what color I am?

    Best check into those kind of things before you call someone a racist!!

    That’s one of the craziest things about the dems. If they do not agree with someone then it’s gotta be that somebody has some kind of phobia. Ya just can’t win a debate based on real merit. Gotta resort to name calling.

    I didn't call anyone a racist, I said overtones. I don't care what color you are, I like all colors.

    You are the one who said "another black guy"...not me.

    I would not want this job for all the money and fame in the world,,,,even if I had the desire.

    Somewhere mentioned here about how wealthy people do investments etc etc...well, I never never followed Trump but know the name due to the public life. I've heard bits and pieces of investments and ventures gone south and here are some of them are:

    Yup, I said “another” black guy. I do suppose that if I had said white guy that it could also be considered to have racial overtones too.
    If folks would get their heads out of their racially motivated posteriors, then maybe some progress might be seen just ahead of us instead of sitting over some rainbow so far out of reach that even Hal wouldn’t be able to see it through his telescope.
    Everything’s gotta be racist, sexist or whatever-ist that someone can make up just to steer away from the facts. When someone is ignorant of the facts they have to makeup a bunch of toro poop to make themselves feel better.
    You’re not one of those people are you Joy?

    That said though Joy, aren’t you the same person that was praising the fact that a black man was voted in as president? You made skin color the object of appreciation which sounds pretty racist to me. You sure you ain’t black? Dunno, you haven’t said so I’ll just assume that you are a human being and let it go at that, which is, the very best assumption another human being can have.

    By the bye.....I am considered a Caucasian. No such thing as a person having white skin. If anything else, I may be called “tan” in color but caucasian will do if human doesn’t work.
    And oh yeah, Donald Trump is human too........Imagine that!! You are human, he’s human, you guys are related!!

    Bobby Cole, lots of anger coming from this political group. Certainly not a calm group. Too many anger pills being popped, maybe? I guess it's true, this stuff brings out the worst in people. Well time to pop my calmer!!!

    BTW: You trumpsters should be a happy crowd as your boy is running the show. But don't feel it....

    If your purpose here is to insult other forum members and to call them racists, then play the victim card every time someone disagrees with you, the door won't be hard to find. It's not far away. I can tolerate whatever opinions someone might want to display here, but your goal seems to be to disrupt and divide.

    Now Joy, no one sounds angry to me and I know for sure that I'm not angry. I mean, my neighbor's dogs didn't get out this morning when I was having coffee so it's been a pretty good day.
    Gotta be left wing dogs.
    The owner said they didn't bark as much when Obama was in office but yup, now that Trump is at the helm they have been having fits!
    Yeah, the owner is a professional fence builder but I doubt if he'll be working on the big one Trump is having put up at the border because frankly, he's a lousy fence builder but he is a real Native American unlike what's her name Pocahontas or something. Ya know...the gal who claimed she was a minority and an American Indian and got all the bennies? Yeah her, the left wing fence hater Liz Warren.
    Yup, I have renters who are Caucasian, Native American, Black, and Guatemalan and from what they say, they're voting for Trump in 2020. Dunno about the Guatemalan family though. They say they will vote but I don't think they can yet. The dad says he wants to build a nice fence around the house. Keeps the leftist dogs out of his yard.
    Imagine the irony: a Guatemalan with a fence.
