    See... This is typical of Trump and his supporters. Facts don't matter. What matters is how they 'feel' about something.
    California and nearly ALL democrat run state recieves LESS in federal aid as a percentage of their general revenue than republican run states . California is in the bottom 10 while your red states fill the top 10.
    Easy to check if you actually look before spouting.
    Violent crime rates by state? California doesn't even show up in the top 10. Tennessee #1 for that one.
    I don't even like California...

    Heck Forbes did a article rating state economies and the same trend contines. Blue states tend to have better economies than red states. Texas is about the only one that bucks this trend and it's at 9th.

    Where do you get your stats from? My guess studies put on by Democrats spread by biased media outlets like CNN. Next thing your going to tell me is that Chicago isn't violent. ;)

    Here's a better idea. Look it up yourself. Find a source that shows otherwise. Not hard to do. Why not enlighten yourself.
    Umm... I told you that last one was from Forbes magazine. You know, that far left liberal rag of a business magazine. Lol.
    Where you getting your 'info' from? Facebook and phoxnews? The other guy gave you a Austrailian news source and you waved it away with a hand. Why should I even bother? Instead you look up the info and show me how wrong I am with sources of your own so we can see the bias you subscribe to instead.
    What I can do for you is give you the link with Gingrich saying exactly what I said about violent crime rates across the nation being down being a fact and Newt replying people don't care about facts. They care about what they think or feel is the truth. He didn't care about the facts. He just wanted to contine to play to peoples emotions and facts be damned. You want that link?

    Welcome to the forums I see you have two post. Yeah I am very enlightened thanks to wikileaks showing exactly how corrupt the Democrat party is. How corrupt our media is, shredding any credibility of almost every major news organizations. Just glad Trump got rid of all lobbyist in the White house and kept Carrier and Ford from moving their plants to other countries. He isn't even in office yet and he has already accomplished more then Obama.

    Ah I see. Not going to look it up and give me links? Wikileaks? That Assange guy who has no alterior motives and is a hacker? He hasn't reported anything on state economies and federal aid as far as I know. Can you link it?
    What, you think Trump is less 'dirty' in some way? Lol. Give him 4 years. ;)
    No. What Trump did was corporate welfare. We are now paying that company $7,000,000 in tax breaks to keep 1,069 jobs in the state. How long? What did that actually fix? Even some republicans are having issues with the way he handled it. He got held up for ransom. Wonder which company is next in line...
    Edit. Thanks for the welcome. We can disagree politically and still have a beer afterward. :)

    He doesn't even need that long, in fact he doesn't need even a millisecond. Trump has still failed to resolve, and is refusing to resolve his massive conflict of interest, namely his business "empire". So long as he doesn't put all his assets in a blind trust he is and will remain the most corrupt President in the history of the United States. And no, "tunring over" control to his children or other family members doesn't resolve this conflict of interest in any way.
    Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day, Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

    Trump isn't even taking the salary of the president. Yet your worried about him making money off being president? He deals in property mainly and you know what makes property values go up. Prosperity. So sure he will make the USA great agian which will drive property values. I am completely ok with that. Dude isn't even president and has done more then the last few presidents to try and keep factories in the USA.

    Actually speculation is what makes property value goes up, but i digress, has nothing to with topic. As for trump we can only hope for the best and following the money or the moneymen in his case is often still the best approach to take when evaluating a presidents viablity and effectiveness. So far not so good for trump IMHO.

    Eh,depends on how you define corrupt. He's under no legal obligation to deal with a conflict of interest and he's never made any claims that he won't use the presidency to make himself richer (at least that I know of)

    I found the most awesome way to get a Blue Card Dem who whines and proceeds to call any Trump voter a Bigot or Racist...

    POT
    KETTLE
    BLACK

    INSTANT BLOCKAGE!

    Love doing it too, because then you both know that you are right...

    Nice. Trump already funneled 12 million for the campaign into his personal businesses and now says he will remain the producer of his TV show while running the government...
    We're screwed.
    Oh and those 1,069 jobs he 'saved'? The actual number is 800 jobs with 600 still slated to goto mexico and no guarentees those 800 jobs will still be there next year. All for the cost of 7 million dollars...
