Bully for him.

I'm raking it in too.

So what?


You post so many negative events that you attribute to Trump. That are really just blips. It gets tiresome showing how you are wrong almost all of the time.

My point was only that it went down.

That it has since recovered does not negate my comment.

That wasn’t your point, and you and every reader here knows it. Your point is ALWAYS that anything negative in the world is ALWAYS the result of the ‘Orange oaf’. He lives in your cranium rent free. A

Nope.

My point was as stated.

Sure, Trump is unfit for office...but to think the market won't like his pro-big business agenda is pollyannahish.

What's up, doc, with this "living in your cranium rent free?" cliche?

Surely a doctor can do better than trite tropes.

I accept the current political reality just as I would have had Harris won...and I'd flame her unabashedly as well, albeit for different reasons: she IS fit for the office, but her progressive agenda irks me.

Now we are on the same page. Not sure why I used that trite, banal, hackneyed cliche, but I liked it when I typed it! Agree wholeheartedly that ‘she is fit for office, but her progressive agenda irks me’.

And really agree that it’s good to ‘accept the current political reality’.

In my ‘job’ as a ‘lobbyist’ we had to change back and forth as the NYS Senate alternated between Republican and Democrat control. Same for the US House and Senste. (The Presidency was above my pay grade).

No matter if it’s Dems or Repubs, I’ll be golfing tomorrow.

In response to the imminent deployment of federal troops in stumptown, the locals are protesting, at least in part, by scheduling an "emergency" naked bike ride.

How classic Portland...

The emergency naked bike ride will be held starting 2:30 this coming Sunday in stumptown.

Come revel at the sight of hundreds, nay thousands, of disgruntled Portlanders symbolically yet vociferously "mooning" the oaf.

Well now boys and girls, hold on to your hookahs: those zany libs in stumptown are preparing for the emergency naked bike ride and "die in."

This Sunday, at three.

Come marvel at the svelte, toned, kombucha infused torsos of we Portlanders...

Love it!

Portland frog and other inflatable protesters.

As is often the case, Portlanders comically yet effectively mock the heavy-handed, clueless feds.
