It's a win-win situation for Trump and Republicans to just take a steaming beer poo poo all over the CFPB leadership question. It's a functioning CFPB that pisses off their financial overlords. If they can't immediately dismantle it like every other piece of government then just throwing legal hand grenades at it until someone can't juggle them all keeps their donor cash rolling in. The entire platform of the GOP is "government doesn't work, vote for me and I'll make sure of it" so paralyzing it with frivolous bullshit is just fine.

If he has family in North Korea they're probably already dead or dying in labour camps. They like to punish the family's of people that defy them.

If a soldier near the Border is in that bad of shape I'm sure his family was way off worst before the idea of running even crossed his mind.

Vasudus posted:My dad worked construction from 14 to 18, was in the Navy until 21, then worked construction from 21 until the day he died at 62, having previously worked a 14 hour day. I worked with him over the summers, and then a bit after I got out of the Army before I went into school. He told me that he doesn't care what I do, just do it well and don't work construction. You know, this reminds me a little of something I read. A guy made a phone app that was briefly famous (wasn't Flappy Bird but something like it) and he talked about how it was unreal making money off it felt. In particular he said one day he was laying in bed and realized he had made more money overnight while asleep than his single mom had made working hard as gently caress all year. He struggled with feelings of shame and guilt and it was just plain weird.

And in front of the Jackson portrait. It is amazing on how easy a photo op with WWII veterans should be a slam dunk but, DJT just can't seem to stop himself.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:Manual labor is hard, it's tiring, there's less flexibility, it pays less on average, it will wear your body down, there's less room for growth, and again, it's just plain hard. There's plenty of people who for some reason or another are limited in what they can do and there should be avenues to train those folks for jobs that don't require higher education and make sure those jobs adequately support them.

The hosed up thing, is he could say that kind of poo poo at a rally and it wouldn't register for most of us because it's bog standard for him. Saying that poo poo in the middle of a ceremony honoring loving Native American veterans is a whole other level of hosed up.
