    He will tell him to keep holding him. 

    And there’s the rub. I don’t see any reason to believe that his continued incarceration will be to due to anything other than Trump’s instruction. I don’t think the fact that he’s Salvadoran and not Venezuelan is really a factor at all.

    Unlike the Venezuelans, there is a level of difficulty here that he has been returned to his home country.  The Venezuelans may have a better case here.

    Does Garcia have any criminal record in El Salvador? If not then why would they have any cause to keep him in prison if the U.S. stopped paying them to do so? Would they have any cause to prevent his return to his wife and kids if they released him?

    Donnie would shoot Eric Trump in the head on national television for a 1% bump in the polls. Or for some extra chicken nuggets.

    Or to fuck Ivanka.

    The first time I ever heard of Donald Trump was when one of his wives accused him of rape. 

    And she’s now buried on one of his golf courses.

    Reagan's are more controversial, but they also are credited with causing an economic expansion.

    “Credited with” doesn’t mean “responsible for.” Maybe lower oil prices and massive deficit spending by the government had something to do with, for a little while.

    Well, he remains the self-interested, arrogant sumbitch he revealed himself to be during the M$ antitrust trial.

    And he's not giving until it hurts.  His wealth continues to grow, very intentionally.

    That means he’s no saint. It doesn’t mean he’s a dumbass. I don’t know where Hank is coming from with that.

    “…while hiding their racism, bigotry, homophobia, and transphobia.” They don’t hide anymore.

    This. Trump made it okay to say the quiet parts out loud again.

    I am stuck here due to family obligations. I will see all of you in the El Salvadorian labor camps at some point. We can talk some UT sports between beatings.

    Of you? Or your sports teams?  😉

    How does Israel do this without reducing what they import from us until it matches what they export to us?

    I didn't go to Wharton so I might be missing something.

    After wiping out all the Palestinians in Gaza, maybe Bibi will give Trump a contract to develop some of that sweet new beachfront property on the Mediterranean. Or at least dangle the possibility in exchange for economic cover and looking the other way on genocide. (And by “looking the other way” I mean actively supporting.)

    That would be a win for Trump. No deficit there.

    Interesting story about that.

    Prior to, and during, WW2, chili almost always had beans in it. In the aftermath, beef producers started ad campaigns claiming that chili without beans was REAL chili, and that only plebes added beans.

    All the arguments in favor of chili without beans come from those ad campaigns.

     

    I saw that thread. Bookmarked this article.

    He literally believes that a trade deficit means the US is losing money. Wharton should retract his degree because surely no one with that degree would say something so stupid… and yet

    This is Trump:

    And Congress and businesses are too cowardly to do any damn thing about it. 
     

    I know I’m repeating myself but this is all just so fucking dumb

    Someone should remind him that his first round of Chinese tariffs resulted in a record trade deficit.

    If Trump runs again, can we get Obama to run again?

    Obama would wind up in jail or in exile if he expressed any interest in running against Trump.
