QuoteTrump bringing Supreme Court favorites to Washington



As a college football fan, I've seen this game before. Recruits will sit down at a table with three hats of teams they are considering, and the hat they put on will be where they will go to school. They will carefully look over the three hats, as though in deep contemplation, and then pull out a fourth from under the table to put on.

I expect Trump will pull a similar trick, shocking everyone by passing over the three guys going to Washington, and having his sister walk out from behind stage as his selection.

I wouldn't rule it out, but she's really old - 79, 80 in April.  She's already retired as a Judge 6 years ago.

they're fucking annoying with their constant nicknaming.  Never know who is it they're referring to.

So, who's or what's "hilldog"?  Hillary?

80 is the new 30. At least in Washington.

If she thinks Donald is a wonderful man and the best brother she could ever hoped for, then she's qualified, imho.

That one seems pretty obvious.

I see.

I don't anything about lawyer things. Fed jobs don't seem that prestigious to me but then I live in Texas where government jobs are all well below private sector rates.

DOJ jobs are indeed very prestigious.  Also pay pretty well--not commensurate with BigLaw associates, I guess, but hardly anything is, and also DOJ jobs actually have a future, which most BigLaw associate gigs do not.

Of course, as I understand it, the RHSA was pretty prestigious too.

Seems like that would hurt, no?

Expensive drugs? It's the foreigners' fault!

https://www.facebook.com/DonaldTrump/posts/10158578663600725:0

QuoteToday I met with pharmaceutical executives at the White House.

US drug companies have produced extraordinary results for our country, but the pricing has been astronomical for our country. We have to do better. We have to get lower prices, we have to get even better innovation.

I expressed to the executives that I want them to move their companies back to the United States -- and I want them to manufacture in the United States.

Our trade policy will prioritize that foreign countries pay their fair share for U.S.-manufactured drugs, so our drug companies have greater financial resources to accelerate development of new cures -- I think that's so important!

Right now it's very unfair what other countries are doing to us - and in order to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN -- we all need to work together right here in the United States of America.

Well he did want to blow up everything as takes Lenin as his model. Supposedly.

See people think he is Hitler but in fact he is actually fighting for the other team.
