They're just not as good businessmen as Trump. He will make the dollar great again! BIGLY!

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I can imagine him sweeping our debt under the carpet and make some dumb excuse to not pay any of it. Worked for his taxes, might as well try it on our country's deficit

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

World markets are crashing, China's down 4 percent, Germany/Britain 5% and Japan 6.

Thanks, I guess.

Haha. Using the market as a measure of rational decision making is so pre 1970 or even pre 1913.

In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

We (and I mean the world, not just the US) are in for some dark times...

Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Can't read the full article. Could you copy paste it here (that is if you can)?
