A White house statement yesterday on trump's behalf saying North Korea is still very much a threat.
Considering he said after his charade of a summit that NK was no longer a threat, I wonder if he even read this statement ?

So this guy goes on Fox "News" to dispute the blatant racism of the Trump administration, and uses "cotton picking" as part of his debate??

"Harley-Davidson plans to shift the production of some of its bikes out of the US in response to Europe’s new tariffs on motorcycle imports.
In a stock market filing, the company said the EU’s reaction to Donald Trump’s steel tariffs, which will add $2,200 (£1,657) to the average cost of a motorcycle exported from the US to Europe, will result in up to $100m of extra charges over the next couple of years.
To prevent further long-term damage to the company’s revenues, it said the production of motorcycles for EU destinations needs to switch from the US to its international facilities."

- isn't that the exact opposite of the intended result?monospaced
- yepfadein11
- HD been suffering for years, they just blame Trump to increase production in India, Thailand. No way in hell they will head to the EU cause of Brexitrobotron3k
- Have any of you ridden the Harley Street? Not all that...robotron3k
- lol@robo, dismissing the point by implying hd is shit anyways because he didn't like the ride of one bike. trumptardism in a nutshell.kona
- I don't think their electric models will be well received in 2019 either, i predict silent harleys will be a tough sell.robotron3k
- robo still missing the point, which is that the tariffs are not producing the result intended. I guess since he's not into HD it's okay that the work is outsourmonospaced
- hey robo, your lord and savior trumptard is giving away jobs to brown people ... does that get through your bigoted thick head?monospaced
- or maybe you're just okay with the idea of yet another US institution going to the wayside, like the auto industry. So patriotic and hypocritical of you.monospaced

Max loves violence...
Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., is under fire for saying that members of the Trump administration should be heckled when out in public.
"If you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere," Waters, who has called for President Donald Trump to be impeached, told supporters over the weekend.

Harley Davidson CEO Matthew S Levatich says:
"Our decision to move some of our operations is 100% based on President Trumps tariffs. Mr. Trump knows nothing about economics and even less about trade. The man is a moron."

I WANT TO BELIEVE.BonSeff - Considering that a Harley is synonymous with "You ain't taking my guns!", I hope this is true.section_014

Millennial Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, former campaign organizer for Bernie Sanders and a card-carrying member of the Democratic Socialists of America, who campaigned on a platform of universal health care, abolishing ICE, and a federal jobs guarantee defeated longtime Queens Congressman Joe Crowley by a whopping 15 percent, capturing 16,000 of just under 28,000 votes.
The current chairman of the House Democratic Caucus and chairman of the Queens County Democratic Party, Crowley, 56, was widely considered a potential successor to current speaker Nancy Pelosi. He served as a member of Congress for two decades, and outspent Ocasio-Cortez—his first primary challenger since 2004—by an 18-1 margin.
After criticizing democrats who accepted corporate PAC money, Ocasio-Cortez managed to raise $300,709, most of it from small donors in and around her district.

Harley-Davidson should stay 100% in America, with the people that got you your success. I’ve done so much for you, and then this. Other companies are coming back where they belong! We won’t forget, and neither will your customers or your now very HAPPY competitors!

Fuck. Justice Kennedy is retiring.
The Dems have got to filibuster ANY nominee until after the mid-terms, just like McConnell did with Garland.
- Dems fucked up the Garland nomination. We're pretty well fucked now. Gah.mathinc
- If RBG (85) or Breyer (79) retire or die before Trump is out.. holy fuck.mathinc
- "it can't happen here"jaylarson
- this is a total fuck. fuck kennedy for retiring that piece of shit.sarahfailin
- That the supreme court is so partisan is fucken stupid. Just a rubber stamp for old cunts.BusterBoy
- BusterBoy0
^^ Dems can't filibuster when the McConnell and his pack of thieving cunts have a majority in the House and Senate.
Schumer and Pelosi need to do everything they can to stop any appointment before the mid terms...block everything they can. If they don't and with the rapidly changing Dem base, their careers are finished.
- "There has to be some form of punishment for the woman getting an abortion". Let that be a reminder.BusterBoy
