Some bankers still remember Trump’s broken promises to them.

You would think someone who went to Wharton, and had every fucking door opened to him from the day he emerged from the womb, would have a basic command of our language. I know people who haven’t had anything close to the opportunities this asshole had, and they can articulate a thought with the best of them.

I say again…how the fuck did this happen? How did we get here?

Nothing makes him angrier than the idea of not being able to borrow money and then fail to pay it back. NOTHING.

He does realize that Congress writes the laws, right? What’s that? Oh, right. He is the King.

And it’s on purpose. And the rich who know how and when it will happen get richer.

I’m feeling a bit on the crude side today. I’ll try to behave like a lady from now on.

Honest. I can! Why are you looking at me that way?

Yeah, you know… word has it that he really doesn’t have any friend other than himself. So there he actually may well have been talking about how he can’t get loans (and he can’t in the US now…)

It must be aimed solely at billionaires because I know a few millionaires and they lost beaucoup money in 2008 and some of them lost their jobs.

It will be worse this time. Much, much worse.

Hate to mention this, but a LOT of people believe that the recession was 1) caused by the government making banks lend money to poor people for mortgages they couldn’t afford and 2) it was all Obama’s fault. If people actually had memories and factual information to work with we would not even be close to where we are right now - which is balanced on tiptoes staring at the brink of disaster.

That was the clearest, shortest, and most accurate explanation I’ve seen to date.

It’s tough out there for Trump’s friends, now that banks are supposed to make sure they’re lending to people who will pay the money back.

You won’t find that in Putin’s Russia! (And soon, not in Trump’s US, either.)

The next actual friend Trump makes will be his first. He’s projecting again.

Speaking of…while I appreciate the various media that provided some much needed info on the vanished First Lady (Will, for example, she attend the child-emperor at Mar-a-Legos, the Winter Motel 6?), I still go back to a joke I made here months and months ago…Can Melania, daughter of a KGB Colonel, get clearance for most areas of the White House? Is this why she’s a no show?
