This is getting nuts, the Trump Rally pushed
the market up another 300 points today.
It's risen 1100 since the election and might
hit 20,000 by the end of the year. Small
businesses are up 11% in the market since
the election. Something is coming, they say,
something good.

US STEEL COULD REHIRE 10,000

"United States Steel would like to accelerate its investments and hire back laid-off employees now that Donald Trump will be occupying the Oval Office", CEO Mario Longhi told CNBC on Wednesday... "When you see in the near future improvement to the tax laws, improvements to regulation, those two things by themselves may be a significant driver to what we're going to do," he said in an interview with CNBC's "Power Lunch."
"I'd be more than happy to bring back the employees we've been forced to lay off during that depressive period," he said, which could be close to 10,000 jobs."

God bless Trump, and I'm as atheist.

The bad news: Precedent for convicting an impeached president is 0 for 2.

The good news: Criminal charges can still apply after a successful conviction.

The also good news: one president did resign while impeachment proceedings were going on.

There is a first time for everything.

At least one, according to the news report I've seen, some guy in Texas said he can't vote for Trump. One other elector has asked to be replaced.

I could find the sources, but I am sure you can too :)

You appear to have a typo in your post Nareed. You have bad news rather than good news.

When does the party of the president
ever impeach him? The house and the
senate were both Dem when Nixon
resigned in fear of impeachment in
1974. A Repub house impeached
Clinton, the Dem senate did not.

The will never be a Dem house or
senate under Trump. The senate
is already viewed as a disaster
for the Dems in 2018. 25 Dem
seats are facing re-election and
5 of them are in red states.

This was supposed to be the bad
year for Rep's, they were defending
24 to the Dems 8. In 2018 it's the
opposite, Dems defending 25 and
the Rep's 10. The Rep's held the
lead this year and are sure to get
a super majority in 2018.

Democrats Brace Against Potential 2018 Senate 'Disaster'

What happened to Carrier
The Union talked honestly about the deal
I watched the interview
The guy was pretty level headed.
A lot of jobs were saved but not the number Trump is saying
He was thankful for the number of jobs saved, just that the number saved not the number Trump is saying

Trump is dumping Carrier and the union
Union getting death threats from trump supporters for speaking honestly

Donald tweeted against a private citizen last night. Now he gets death threats.

Imagine if the tables were turned and Obama did what Donald did to some private citizen.... the righties would GO CRAZY.
