On a serious note, will someone be willing to tell Mr. Trump that SOMETHING must be done with that dead thing he sports on his head?

I'm pretty sure it's alive.

Have you ever noticed how it moves around sometimes when he is sitting still?

Well that would explain why his part continues to move

What part are you talking about?

I don't think a certain part on him moves without overdoses of Cialis.

The thought of "little donald" moving makes me a bit squeamish.

He could have instead challenged The Donald to show proof of what his investigators were finding. All he had to do was call his bluff, imo.

He just did.

Try to keep up.

It wasnt the Donald showing proof when it should have been, he was the one slandering the President of the US of A.

Our economy crashed in 2008, welcome to the Great Depression II - Revenge of the Robber Barons, starring George W Bush, guest starrting Dick Cheney. How soon you all forget when this disaster happened, and what created it.

That's an opinion piece, ffs. Go check out the 2 podcasts about the crash on This American Life. Or read Busted. Both tell of the lenders & Wall Street's contribution to the crash. No one forced all those sub-prime mortgage firms in Orange County to write bogus loans. Wall Street was actually pressuring FM to guarantee those loans. No one forced hedge funds and investment houses to slice and dice the mortgages, invent CDOs, pay for bogus valuations by S&P, and then not even have a fucking clue what their own risk models meant. They should've learned their damn lesson from the mortgage crash in the '80s - that was the same technique of slicing up mortgages and recombining them into new instruments (see Liar's Poker by Michael Lewis). And you remember who paid for all those S&Ls, right?

Lending to minorities referred to the old "red lining" practices, where qualified (note the qualified) buyers could not get loans for homes. Fraudulent loans to unqualified buyers aren't the same.

Almost every week Bush would brag on all the homeowners in the US. His administration was clueless to not see this coming, or he wasn't listening to people who knew. Several folks (amateurs for the most part) spotted the bust coming and made a tidy killing on the market.

BTW, Bush's experience consisted of running several oil companies into the ground using other people's money. His big score was with the Texas Rangers, where the partners saddled FW/Arlington with most of the costs and got the property through an eminent domain process. What was Reagan's business experience? Gingrich's? Why weren't you barking about all the debt Bush took one as we went to war on credit cards? You weren't anywhere near as vociferous as you are now.

Republicans have consistently sided with the forces deregulation. They have consistently spoken about market forces, of course until the house of cards collapsed, and then they couldn't bail out their cronies fast enough. In fact, any talk of making these banks answerable to the American people for bonuses to their failed management was derided as "socialism". Oh yeah, they wanted those taxpayer bailouts, they just wanted to make sure there were no strings attached, which would give them little incentive to pay back the money when they were solvent again.

Seriously, there is more I could say on the subject, but since there are entire books on the topic, some of them already mentioned by others on this thread, I will let it go at that.
