Trump vs Hillary 2016

Quote: terapined

Pence goes to see Hamilton
The audience boos
Trump blows a gasket and blames the cast
WTF
The cast did not boo

The cast had something to say after the play: http://www.theverge.com/2016/11/19/13685038/hamilton-cast-vice-president-elect-mike-pence-american-values-broadway

From the Orange Mn's reaction, we can conclude two things:

1) He's against two provisions in the First Amendment

2) He's too clueless to realize he has no right to call anyone rude.

It amazes me how anti-business the right is
US companies need freedom to compete internationally
All the major auto companies and engine manufacturers worldwide are making huge R and D investments in India
Its the smart move to stay competitive

What is anti-business about moving a plant here? Shorter supply lines and you can thus make changes faster, keeping lower inventory costs.

Huge R&D in India? Good luck with that.

"Huge R&D in India" I am expect that is the right thing to do for the company both in the short term and the long term but it is symptomatic of something much larger that is changing in the world.

A large percentage of the people in the developed countries and probably a larger percentage of people in the USA still see the Asian countries as taking less skilled jobs from our economies. The millenials feel that is no problem because we have this huge advantage in technology and they can all work for video game developers in clean, green jobs. This advantage is decreasing if not already gone and the trend is accelerating.

The reason I mentioned India is it is one of the last places I would put R&D. The society is not known for their creativity. Like many non-western societies, they can follow instruction pretty well but when you have to solve a problem that is not "in the book" they fall down. Ask yourself how well India call centers serve you as a customer. India is not the only country like this of course. But they are a perfect example of learning to learn vs learning to problem solve.

I still giggle at the "green jobs" thing. Do kids really still think such a segment ever existed?

I am not sure that I agree with your analysis of India ADZ. The people of India are probably one of the most successful groups of people in the world as entrepreneurs. So much so that they often face resentment or even deportation because of this success. Entrepreneurs are not generally considered a group of people that lack innovation.

What people? Most of India is dirt poor. Any place with a billion people will have some kind of successful class based on sheer numbers. Like Brazil, India is a place perpetually 10 years away from their big boom. Note that their most successful people leave, often for the medical industry in the USA.

There will be a Republican candidate as weak as Donald Trump on the ballot in 2020. ;) Assuming he doesn't get impeached or get bored with the job or something...

If the economy is doing ok and ISIS in check and illegal immigration decreased it is possible that the Donald wont be as weak a candidate as he was this time. I do think Andrew Cuomo will beat him though.

Donald is playing the media.

His stupid breakdown over the Hamilton audience booing Pence gets the media talking about that instead of the fact that he settled his Trump U fraud suit yesterday for $25 million.

Looking more and more like Hillary waited to concede because she was having a breakdown,

Hillary dragged herself to some charity
event this week and looked like death
warmed over. Droopy hair, almost no
makeup, bloodshot eyes. Gone was
the princess Di hairdo and the pound
of pancake TV makeup to hide what
she really looks like. What a charmer.

Yeah she looked bad.

That's her "I have zero f**ks left to give" face.

You'll only be able to deflect Trump's shortcomings with ugly pictures of Hillary for a little bit longer... enjoy it while you can.
