Trump is taking a hit on the handling of the economy as many people still feal the sting of high prices and their impact on cost of living, so he is expected to address realities in this area. Trump is also expected to present a preview of what he intends to do in the upcoming months. Enjoy the week!

    1. Wow, didn’t expect that.. timing is everything lol..

      Happy midweek all! Just sitting in my office, waiting for the “major wind event” that we were warned about..

      1. Keeping busy at the station this week, so I’ll do my best GB… Might even break open that bottle of Blantons I’ve been saving for a special occasion…

  3. WTF was with Trump’s comments on Rob Reiner? That was just wrong, inappropriate, and fed the TDS machine.

    2. I have ZERO problems with 47’s post…ZERO. Its was NO-WIN situation for him. If he posts something nice and/or neutral, he’s called a hypocrite, a phony, or a fraud. They’d say he’s trying to curry favor or he’s showing weakness to a guy that spent a better part of decade going off the rails with parroting every whacky Leftist talking point, and insult. If he posts nothing he’d be criticized for not commenting, for ignoring one of worst critics, blah, blah, blah. He’s figures if I’m going to be criticized not matter what then I’ll get my pound-of-flesh. Spare me the pearl clutching about civility when the Leftist literally danced of Charlie Kirk’s grave, Rush Limbaugh’s grave, and any misfortune that falls in their political enemies. The left absolutely HATES it when 47 plays by THEIR rules.

      1. I don’t disagree that the left would shit on him regardless, or most of the rest of you post, and I am certainly not clutching pearls or anything else. I just think he could have done better..

          2. He made some good movies, but he was an unhinged liberal douchebag. The guy lost his fastball years ago, so attacking 47 was part of a desperate attempt to stay relevant.

      2. I’m not clutching my pearls. I like to think we’re above that kind of commentary about a murder victim of any political stripe. I didn’t care for Reiners’s politics, but I am not about to disparage him in a comment about his murder. It’s not the time or place. That’s what’s supposed separate us from them. If you “play by their rules”, you risk becoming the thing you despise.

        1. Decency and good manners are often sacrificed due to the political opinions of others who lack common sense.

    3. I’m going to agree with you…he should have kept his mouth shut….I do believe he said this in retaliation to reiners comment that he wished trumps assassin hadn’t missed

    4. On one hand, Rob Reiner’s unhinged attacks on President Trump led to Trump’s comments about him. i.e. Reiner asked for it.

      On the other hand, I would much prefer that President Trump not respond in kind to someone who is now unable to ‘hear’ the comments.

      1. A class act would have risen above it. “While we may have disagreed politically, we will miss his directorial talents and would like to convey our deepest sympathies to their family”. Someone in the administration should have said something similar.

        2. Conservatives said those kinds of things for decades and the favor was never returned. Think back to when Trump was shot. Was there any level of sympathy for him from the media or celebrities? I remember them wishing the shooter was successful and blaming Trump for the act because Trump is so devisive.

          1. Agreed. Does anybody here honestly think that if the shoe was on the other foot, does anybody think riener would show sympathy or respect, or would there be a line of people waiting to dance on his grave much like some would line up to pee on Jane Fondas grave.

    1. It’s Aliens. (Disclosure)
    2. YOU’RE ALL GETTING A FREE TEE-SHIRT!!! (See attached)
    3. Obama, Clintons, Bidens, most of Congress,75% of the Federal Judges, all Illegal Aliens are all going to GITMO (or secondary locations for processing).
    4. About 1/3 top 1/2 of the US population is going to be given free travel and time at FEMA “vacation and spa” resort retreat locations around the U.S. and around the world. They all deserve a break and time to relax and readjust and re-center themselves so they can return and be happy, productive members of society. (Starting with Commissar 😀 )
    5. Profit.

  5. Not First. I was just getting ready to call it a day and this
    thread pops up. Now I can’t sleep.

        1. Feel for ya.
          I would become totally unhinged up there.

          ::yeah, I left the door wide open there::

  10. Ok dickweeds, there’s a veterans meeting 1000 EST tomorrow, Cask and Clipper bar, deck 5 on the Royal Caribbean Wonder of the Seas. I expect all hands to show up.

    1. Probably not that difficult if Minnesota is serving them up T Ball style and Minnesota is the Tee.

  13. The Chris Plante Show on WMAL just had some asshole named Hack from Bethesda on the air. That guy should get back to trying to sell Red Hat Software and stop wasting valuable radio air time.
