I suppose you meant that most of the country recognized that Trump was a con man a racist and a cheat, and nearly a majority of voters voted for him anyway, which is true and also worrisome. We saw today that a majority of House Republicans are either still in the denial phase, or worse yet...

Nothing in today's hearing. Cohen says he doesn't know of any. Right. If Cohen has nothing, nobody else does. Well, maybe Manafort. He learned how elections are hacked while working for Yanukovych. He took Trump campaign political poll results to Russians thinking it was a Borscht recipe...

No problem with editing for accuracy, or even deletions to avoid getting the witness into avoidable hot water. That's not the kind of editing I was referring to. But what would you say if the edits changed a date, for example, to make the statement into an outright lie! If the President and...

A more or less constant annoyance for the rest of us, it seems, is the lack of intellect among Republicans in general. So while Trump's base sees Republican grandstanding as a brilliant defense of their genius President, the rest of us are thinking WTF, have these folks lost their fucking minds!

This would seem to have the potential to open a new can of worms with regard to the President's indirect, via his attorneys, participation in Cohen's testimony unless the edits were not substantive with regard to facts.

If your going to receive an opinion. it's nice to receive an expert opinion. She is starting to sound pretty damn sensible.

I have thought about this and even made a little money in cannabis stock -- out of it currently. This will be a volatile market driven by hype. I personally would not invest for the long term, but astute traders may be able to profit from market volatility. I believe marijuana production and...

exactly!

Why do you believe this? Why anyone would believe this is a question that has always puzzled me. . Sure, a few examples of non-citizens turning up on the voter roles have been reported, but "millions" of illegals actually voting!!! The number of undocumented immigrants living in the fifty...

Do it! It would be a win for Colorado and a win for you. All you have to do now is find a state that will have you. Maybe Arkansas or Mississippi would take you in.

There are aspects to the mechanics of short-time-frame trading using limit orders via the typical retail broker that virtually guarantees the trader who attempts this particular brand of trading will not make money. Yet every retail broker I am aware of promotes short term trading using limit...

Who cares where she lives? Is she going to sell out her country for a big deal in Russia that will net her millions? I don't know. But that's what I care about.

Get a Grip man! This has nothing to do with politics. It's about the existence of mentally unstable people in our society, lack of adequate healthcare (which includes treatment for mental disorders) and the need for reasonable gun laws. Perhaps you are exhibit "A" ? Have you given that any...

This is a very good point that you make. It goes to the heart of why we have illegals here in the first place. But unfortunately it doesn't say anything about why we don't do the things you suggest would be very effective in driving the number of illegals to virtually zero. In reality, all...

It is QE that brings down interest rates and can result in devaluation, depending on the extent to which the additional money going into reserve accounts just stays in swollen reserve accounts or finds its way into the economy. I am assuming the Chinese Central Bank operates similar to all...

Although "thin air" is an apt metaphor for creation of money without limit, it's a metaphor that misleads the naive. For what is money in actuality if not buying power, i.e., the ability to readily interchange it with goods, services, and tax obligatins. Therefore, money should be seen, in my...

You have to be very careful with these numbers if they come from the Trump administration, because they count the crimes of illegally entering the country or overstaying a visa, etc. That makes ever person here illegally a criminal, and of course they are. But those are not the crimes that...

In response to FC: I merely wanted to pint out that I have seen the source for this posted more than once on ET already. Try the Pew Research sight if you are seriously interested.

What steps are being taking, I wonder, to assure that the new election will be legitimate?

How many of those parents, may I ask, had experienced the U.S. public schools so they had some basis for comparison? My impression is that French public schools experience less variability in funding than U.S. schools, which unfortunately vary widely in that aspect from State to State and...
