Sounds to me the way they talk now about this, that it should have been looked into sooner.

And where did I say this should be shoved under the rug? If you noticed I’ve been trying to find out why they didn’t do something sooner about this!!
Russia, Russia, Russia... Hoax that consumed the first three years maybe?

Poor Clocker tried to remind everyone of his prior criticism of the Obama policies...but as long as he continued criticizing the "Orange One"...his neutrality arguments fell on deaf ears. He finally got so fed up that he stopped posting here altogether. The lesson being...it doesn't really matter how "neutral" you are...or how many liberals you attack here. As long as you keep criticizing the Donald...you are never going to be accepted as a neutral party...and you will always be branded a "liberal Trump-hater". And now, you've been warned.
....and that, my friends and foes, is the truth!

Maybe he's embarrassed that the unemployment rate is at a 50 year low, and the DOW is at all time highs (401k'S). His prediction of doom and gloom has not taken place

He was wrong, Trump policies have been GREAT for America. His decision not to continue posting is on him. No one else. I hope he comes back, but it's his decision

Why this has not been investigated is a good question. People keep harping on Burmusia. The company that has 4 board members on it that have been involved in questionable dealings. And that is just the Ukrainians on the board. The theft of 5.5 billion dollars of IMF money is the real crime. And where that money went, would be nice to know. Since one of the board members of Burmisia was involved in that theft, and is the owner of the company. Is that how they can afford to pay so much money for Biden and Archer? Lindsy Graham has asked the State Department for documents relating to the Bidens and Archer and Kerry. So far, either the State Department has not given those documents to him. Or, if they did, Graham is sitting on them. Why it is not being investigated is a real good question. Did part of that 5.5 billions dollars end up in the pocket of American officials?

Keep avoiding the question.

Clocker was not a fan of tariffs, because they're a tax on US consumers. He's also not a fan of sky-high deficits, especially in a time of growth.

This was a good thread to see Clocker's crazy anti-Trump takes..

Presidents and their fans take a lot more credit for good economic news than they could possibly deserve, and similarly usually get a lot more blame for bad news.

Presidents can't and don't "grow the GDP" or "lower unemployment". A president contributes to an environment of an optimistic or pessimistic business outlook with favorable policies. To date, Trump has done a better job of that than Obama did. He isn't helping that lately with growing deficits, tariffs and talk of a shutdown.

In the words of Bill Parcells. "Don't tell me about the labor pains, show me the baby"

The baby= unemployment at 50 year lows. DOW at an all time highs

I'm happy, most are.....anti Trumpers and self proclaimed economists who got it wrong, aren't.

So the Russian hoax was more important than what Biden did? Republicans just sat and watched that instead of doing their job and investigating Biden? I noticed you used the word consumed instead of involved. They could have done other things instead of just being consumed with something they knew was false.

Do you agree with him or me? Should they have been consumed with the Russian hoax or done something about Biden?
