In the News II

Quote: Evenbob

We have literally been on the verge of World War III since the end of World War II. I've heard this all my life and I'm still waiting. Of course divorce lawyer heaven is really hell. Hell is the best that can happen for any lawyer, don't they teach you that in law school? How many lawyer jokes are there, thousands? Satisfied customers never make jokes.. LOL

The Cold War was WWIII. What we are on the verge of is social collapse. We have it in several places already.

Then all of the sudden, a non-establishment person wins the office of President.

One that denied accepting a salary.

You mean Jack Kennedy?

He also donated every penny of his Congressional and Presidential salary to charity.

Very interesting.

So you think a person can spend 13 years (1960 - 1947) in politics before becoming the President and not be a member of the establishment.


What is your reasoning?

Does this sound like the father of a non establishment person? Are you actually out of your teens yet?

"Kennedy was a leading member of the Democratic Party and of the Irish Catholic community. President Roosevelt appointed Kennedy to be the first chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which he led from 1934 to 1935. Kennedy later directed the Maritime Commission. Kennedy served as the United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom from 1938 to late 1940. With the outbreak of World War II in September 1939"

I'm saying Donnie wasn't the first to donate his salary to charity, and doing so isn't necessarily a badge of honor. Indeed, the Founding Fathers coerced Washington to accept a Presidential salary so as to not set a precedent that only the rich should be President. And since news reports show that Donnie made $160 million from foreign business dealings while he was serving as president of the United States, him donating his salary is actually a non sequitur.

You MAGA pinheads will believe any hagiographic lie about Donnie.

You really need to seek help for your TDS. If your boy Obama donated his salary back we would never hear the end of it. But not only did he not do that, he was too cheap and selfish to give the tax break he kept bragging he did not need back or give it to charity.

Trump is an example to follow.

Obama wasn’t operating a bribe palace down in FL during his presidency so he needed the money. Donny was able to collect his bribes from foreign dignitaries to make up for his lost salary.

You agree JFK was part of the establishment?
