I have read large swathes of it.
However if reading something is the new metric for being able to comment on it around these parts its gonna get pretty quiet.
I linked White House talking points as they are the most favorable portrayal of White House policy you're gonna get.
Finally I'm not giving the President credit for an economy. Any President. Period. That's stupid.
I'll give credit at policies I think help growth and critique ones I think hurt. This trade fight is one of them.
Obama had 8 years of growth bringing the country back from deep recession... give credit...
Or...
Be American and comment on the stupid shit he did...

I freely admit those phrases did not register, most likely, because subconsciously I probably believed those terms were a fair assessment of behavior.
I apologize for my gaffe.

Laugh your soft arse off all you wish with these silly gifs, whatever. Very childish but then again YOU ARE the lead child to all the simple minded Trump haters.
I'll stack my posts, predictions and commentary against yours any day of the week. On my worst day I've contributed more value to this site than many on here, ESPECIALLY you. And that also means posting in other threads on different subjects. For someone you yells how wildly read you are, your range of intellect is quite shallow. And I will not comment on your writing skills ... which lacks simple clarity to start.
You are the one who have contributed mostly zero value to this place. And I'm being generous.
You are the one that said Trump won't get foreign companies to relocate here. WRONG. You are the one that said trade deals with the EU, NATO, NAFTA, and So Korea would never happen. WRONG. You are the one that said earlier corrupt deals made by Congress with Lockheed and Boeing will not be renegotiated because Trump is clueless. Well, you were WRONG then too. You should have quit then when you were behind but stupidity knows no bounds.
You also are the one that said Trump's trade policies will kill the economy. WRONG.
You are the ignorant one, not even knowing that Congress is the allocator of funds for the Wall, etc. Call it a Trump failure if you want, be my guest. Only stupid people believe this.

I disagree with ET a lot more than I agree with him. But even when we disagree, his arguments are coherent and make sense. You post nonsense all the time, have a singular lack of knowledge and an outsized opinion of your abilities .

If elysian has any skills, which many doubt, being coherent and making sense are the least of them. No wonder you support him.
Know-nothings and idiots usually are bothered about my outsized opinion of myself. I understand that. But you ignore one thing:
I have regularly gone on the PA public record with my analysis, predictions and opinions and what-not, more so than anyone on here. Others often hide in the shadows and after the wind blows one way of the other, out they come with their 'expertese'. I always state my case and thoughts way before any dust settles.
Another difference is ... the subsequent results have proven me right! All the examples I used against elysian were correct. He said all those things and he was wrong. He is an expert, yes... of being wrong. Always wrong but never in doubt.
I have written documented proof of some of the more articulate and prescient predicitions on here ... which have also been proven correct. And elysian has a long proven record of incorrect and some say stupid calls and analysis.
I don't care if you rather bet on his opinions than on mine, who cares? Just don't bet any real money on him.
It's tough for me to be modest when I am right all the time.
I'll remind you of a prediction I made last year to you that is on its way to becoming another true and accurate call by me. Remember:
Your Cubs will go another 100 years before they win another World Series. We're already in Year Two and it's looking better by the year.
And this time around, you can't blame any Billy Goat.
Become a White Sox fan, they are the future of Chicago baseball.

Seriously. You know what Mexico needs from us? Corn. A few years ago there was a shortage of corn in Mexico and people were rioting for corn. It's true. Corn is part of the Mexican national identity.
Actually we're using a ridiculous amount of the corn we grow to make ethanol.

Whoever decided to use corn in our gas shoot be shot.
So what about this.
For every illegal here that Mexico will come and pick up and take back home, we give them a bushel of corn to go along.
OR, instead of a WALL, we but in corn fields along the border.
Hmmmmmm........

I'll tell you a short story about planting tall crops near the border. A while back at Otay Mesa, on our side of the border there was a protected wetlands. Birds nested there, other small animals as well. The Feds demanded it be cut down because illegals would get across and hide in the tall reeds. I think eventually the immigration people won and they trimmed the wetlands.
So you might have to think of something else.

Well, they could plant the corn rows perpendicular to the border, so we could see down the rows and know if anyone was in there.
