Play Nice 45th President of the United States: Donald Trump - Part 7 - Trump takes full responsibility.

Another “only the best” cabinet secretary chosen by Trump
Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross told CNBC this morning that he doesn’t “quite understand” why federal workers lining up at food banks as the government approaches its fifth week of shutdown.
“I know they are, and I don’t really quite understand why,” Ross said in response to a question about the food donations. “Because, as I mentioned before, the obligations that they would undertake, say borrowing from a bank or a credit union are in effect federally guaranteed.”
Like Trump so empthatic

• November 2017: Forbes said that Ross inflated his net worth for yearsto the magazine. Ross claimed to be worth nearly $3 billion - when in fact, Forbes said, he was worth around $700 million.

Should he called Marie from now on

Dynamite call from the King of Bankruptcy, if he had the chance, he would buy these furloughed workers and sell them for a profit.

Still chuckle at this scene in Beyond Thunderdome with the tension rising, someone from the cinema audience yells out "Top Dollar!" good times.

No, theatre is the pathetic behaviour of Trump & of Pelosi. Trump started it & owns it. Their was/is no need for it. Its counter productive. Pelosi has been churlish in reply,

The people who have no income for doing their jobs are Victims. That is a serious tragedy.

Not theatre but tragedy?
Well it kind of has to be either tragedy or comedy

Okay, I had a look and it turns out that the claim that she literally said exactly that "it's not important to be factually correct its just important to be morally correct" is not true. She agrees that it is very important to be factually correct. She made a mistake and was attempting to make the point that it does not invalidate her overall argument. Do you think one error invalidates an entire argument?

The actual exchange:

COOPER: One of the criticisms of you is that-- that your math is fuzzy. The Washington Post recently awarded you four Pinocchios --

OCASIO-CORTEZ: Oh my goodness --

COOPER: -- for misstating some statistics about Pentagon spending?

OCASIO-CORTEZ: If people want to really blow up one figure here or one word there, I would argue that they’re missing the forest for the trees. I think that there’s a lot of people more concerned about being precisely, factually, and semantically correct than about being morally right.

COOPER: But being factually correct is important--

OCASIO-CORTEZ: It’s absolutely important. And whenever I make a mistake. I say, “Okay, this was clumsy,” and then I restate what my point was. But it’s -- it’s not the same thing as -- as the president lying about immigrants. It’s not the same thing at all.


At least she was owning the mistake, unlike Trump does. I mean, has he ever admitted a lie? If we're going to be holding one person to account with regard to accuracy of claims, you have to hold everyone to account, and not give them a free pass like certain people do with Trump.

And she must scare conservatives shitless the way they go over everything she says or does. I think she's doing a terrific job of proving that young people should be in politics.

Another Cortez beauty. "12 years - hmmmm" You guys do choose your hero's wisely. "Like - this is the war"

Sounds like another newcomer to politics who got traction with grandiose statements and fearmongering......

AOC is like a greenhorn deckhand in the Deadliest Catch , in for a rude shock

It'd be Biden and Sanders.

You might be right provided creepy Joe can stay out of jail.

Of course he can, some dickhead on the internet continually calling him 'creepy' for no reason isn't going to get him sent anywhere.

And as for the AOC vids, it's fascinating how conservatives are so scared of her that they started running out-of-context hit pieces on her before she even took her seat in congress.

It makes sense that they are trying to counter her - her tactics are similar to how Donnie got elected and they view her as dangerous in terms of gaining strong momentum amongst the disenfranchised. My opinion only from the outside looking in.

I think we know what is empty on BF. Some heads me thinks, Reg

If you think its comedy then you must be a pretty nasty piece of work. The people suffering have no fault in all this.

Your mate Trumpy started it & called his own reponsibility on the shutdown. Using hostages like this is wrong. Pelosi is baiting him & he jumps & snaps every single time.

I've no doubt the cool head on either side would sort a deal out in short order. But Trumps die in the ditch attitude is just typical of his mental state. Damaged.

Trumpys bullshyte & bullying is of no value in public politics.

Allegedly he found 7 billion in gov funds to use on the wall when he calls state of emergency

Nearly as Creepy as Donnie talking about his daughter. (shivers up spine)

PEDO TRUMPY has an eerie ring to it. I wonder if he's paid her off too?

Odd way to provide pocket money.

I stated clearly that I like her and she has a strong future m8. How is that writing her off as a viable politician? I entered the discussion to give a source for her comment, as requested. I think she is light on the facts (she was also out by tens of trillions in her healthcare comments), but that should improve as she becomes more experienced.

Not sure if you're trolling with the military comments. IIRC you never answered my question on whether Iraq or Libya have improved post intervention.

There's no point in thinking long term to solve future problems if it won't work immediately?

I look forward to seeing which source this incorrect info came from!

Intervention on iraq wasnt really justified. It was done for oil and vengence and not humanitarian reasons and then was executed poorly. Libya I know little about so cant really comment. Just because I think military intervention is sometimes necessary doesnt mean I think its always necessary and even if it is necessary if done poorly it can lead to even worse outcomes. Stop thinking in such simplistic terms. The world aint ones and zeros.

There would be a confidentiality clause

It’s fact. Wow. What’s wrong with facts these days?

Wtf

Its a stupid fact cos of population growth. Most countries in the world currently have their highest amount of workers ever.

What would he be going to jail for?

Sounds quite like your hero trump just on the opposite side of politics and not quite as extreme.
