Trump could benefit by shrinking; our economy, not really.

I mentioned Japan because that's exactly what happened to them. They took a hard stance on anti-immigration policies and discriminating against non-Japanese people and now they have one of the lowest birthrates in the world and a large rapidly aging population, and a stock market that basically hasn't moved since 1999.
Although it should be noted that "shrink and prosper" is a thing
yeah, that's what I am getting. Hard to point at Japan as a disaster, given their high wealth and living standards.
but it's early days - could get much worse. And they don't have to deal with racial/ethnic/tribal issues most countries have to take into consideration. So depopulation in Japan could be the best possible picture, while most countries do far worse.
Democrats lose again
Some things:
1) We definitely need to focus on renewable energy with solar being the most important one. Google "Robotic Flower Solar Panels". Cool idea. Solar energy will continue to get more and more efficient and wide spread.
2) Not surprising at all that the birth rate in the US has dropped so low, and that will likely continue. At some point it will be so bad that either the US will have to have a campaign to lure immigrants here (Reagan knew what he was talking about there), OR the US will offer bigger incentives (tax breaks) for children or both. The government is, among other things, a business...a poorly-run business, but a business nonetheless. It needs tax revenue...CUSTOMERS. The more people that are here, the more they buy things and earn a living and pay taxes on income and purchased goods.
3) Mueller is coming. The clown is done.

You didn’t read up on it did you?
We can tell.
Oh yeah, baby. It continues to slowly seep out.
The Comey / FBI and Brennan / CIA finger-pointing has begun. Which one do you believe? This is gonna be great. Wait til all the docs are declassified and unredacted. I think I'm going to go with Comey at this point, because Brennan is just EVIL- Comey's just a spineless hack that is easily manipulated.
Mueller did NOT come.
The clown remains Flagpole.
Unless Mueller, Barr IS COMING, baby!

Carter Page was under legal IC surveillance since 2014 (well before the trump campaign), and the warrants to surveil him were renewed several times by FISC.
Page boasted of his close ties to the Kremlin and worked the trump campaign. Recordings were made of russian intel talkign about recruiting Page.
You tell me...a guy the IC has thought for years could be a spy for Russia
Then this possible spy gets a job in the Trump campaign.
All this time, the IC knows that Russia was campaigning for Trump.
You tell me. if the IC didn't investigate this in a counter-intelligence setting, would they be seriously negligent?
yes, they would.

Her absolutely impossible plan is to eliminate greenhouse gasses by 100%. If we could reduce it by 50% over the next 10 years, it would be a fantastic achievement.
To stop global warning, greenhouse gasses need to be reduced by 45%. 15% comes from the U.S. so even if we destroy our economy to achieve AOC's goals, it will not save the world without other countries achieving substantial reductions as well.
Her plan is achievable. It will take sacrifice. A small price to pay to save the world from desctruction.
AOC was a bartender 8 years after graduating from college, wins an election and a few months later puts together a plan to end global warming. Her plan includes several strategies with no estimate of the costs or where the funds would come from. AOC claimed we could use the $21 Trillion of accounting errors made by the military to put a big dent in the cost of Medicare portion of GNP. Believing that the military, which has a $700 Billion budget, has wasted $21 Trillion is absolute proof that she is a moran.
Trump likes to say the plan would cost $93 Trillion, but experts can't make an estimate of the cost because it's too vague. The GND can summarized as "Global Warming is bad and we need to do something about it".
The GND is an aspirational document...it's not meant to be a literal plan. It's a manifesto setting out goals, concerns and priorities.
It's not something that can be passed as a law.

Interesting that the Trump campaign was not notified by intel.

Exactly. Funny how easy these folks are brainwashed.
And why did they need to use an opposition research "dossier" funded by the opponent, using foreign agents? And why send spies to try to seduce George Papadopoulos and frame him? Hmmm.
Again, wait until all the declassification takes place. Going to be great.
Trump loses midterms & looks for scapegoats, because it couldn’t be HIS fault! Another reason he will be dismissed...

You clearly don't know what being "proven right" even means. I've been right for over 3 years vs you.
You have ZERO to show for any of your THOUSANDS of posts. Nothing.
You know what's great about being right so often? You don't have to visit these boards every day. You can go WEEKS without checking, come back, and know that nothing has changed- just a bunch of losers whining to each other.
But it's not going to happen.
Mueller failed.
Clownpole wailed.
Barr though? Oh yeah, he's a COMIN'!!
Trumpers always post lots more when they’re worried! (As they should be...)

you guys ah do not seem to know that Page was not surveilled while he worked for the campaign.
Telling the trump campaign that a former staffer was under counter intelligence surveillance? i don't think that is how the world works. All kinds of problems with that.

it is sad to see you claim those who wait for evidence before deciding things are 'brainwashed.'
Totally Orwellian.
The brainwashed people are those who have decided there was an FBI plot against Trump, and believing that without any evidence. that is very close to the definition of brainwashery.
Crooks don’t need a heads-up that their crimes are being investigated.
