THE ERA OF TRUMP

[KerningChameleon]

Lol we aren't even arguing with "white people." GCF is a mix blood. Yet he never fucking says so, he argues from a "white peoples" position.

So, my ancestry, to the best of my knowledge, is British/Dutch/Irish/German/Italian/Cherokee. Keep in mind that's just what I know for sure, I suspect there might be bits that have been covered-up and I'd need to submit to genetic genealogy testing to get a truly accurate picture of my ancestral lines. Anyway, by most folks standards, that makes me "white American", but in nuke's worldview, that 1/32 or whatever it is injun blood makes me a filthy mongrel who should get out of his pristine white nation and go back where I came from.

Which, even if he was right, would be... Carolina. Hmm.

Fine. There is a strong probability that the average big shot is a moron. Better?

No. Not even close. To believe that, I'd have to accept that there are billions of people who work very hard, and never rise above the baseline of survival, and then there are a minuscule segment that are all idiots, and somehow have more than the rest of the world combined, because.....magic.

That would mean that we could all quit our jobs and go proposition the closest cop for sex, and somehow that combination of idiocy would result in us all being rich.

Paris Hilton, or any of the other "Hollyweird" rich and glamorous y'all like to bag on. You can get pretty far in life with little smarts with the right parents.

True but that doesn't mean most rich folk get pretty far in life with little in smarts. Paris Hilton is an exception, not the rule. Just because she is a dumb rich person doesn't mean that most rich people are dumb.

I would characterize the type of people being discussed as 8-9 figure millionaires... Many people who successfully save for retirement are millionaires, in the literal sense.

I'm talking about business owners, capitalists, florida people. Not the hardworking salt-of-the-earth type that save pennies. Those are MUCH different people.

Then you need a better term than "millionaires" to describe them.

Forbes seems to just use "ultra high net worth" to describe the +$100,000,000 net worth.

Article from June 2015, 5,000 U.S. Households Worth More Than $100 Million, Report Says

The total number of millionaire households around the world reached a record 17.4 million in 2014, up 13.7% from 15.3 million the year before. Meanwhile, the ultra high net worth set is expected to grow at an equally impressive rate over the next five years. According to the Boston Consulting Group, wealth for the richest global families worth more than $100 million is projected to cross the $18 trillion mark by 2019.

Currently, private wealth held by families with a fortune of more than $100 million total a combined $10 trillion, or roughly 6% of global wealth. Those ultra rich fortunes grew by 11 percent in 2014. To get to $18 trillion by 2019, the report predicts that household wealth will grow at a compound annual rate of about 12 percent in the next five years.

The report, published Monday, says there are more than 5,000 U.S. households worth $100 million or more. China follows with more than 1,000 ultra rich households.

It's nothing more than a mask for inadequacy. It's pretty hard to rise to that level. Much easier to convince yourself that you're already above them, your bank account just doesn't reflect it yet.

The root of this far leftism is jealousy and hatred.

Donald Trump has said repeatedly that he intends to relocate the US embassy to Jerusalem, despite warnings the move would violate international law and destroy the peace process.

Earlier in January, US officials and Israeli Foreign Ministry sources said the incoming US ambassador to Israel could be based in Jerusalem, while the official embassy building remains in Tel Aviv.

Hey, now--this could be YUGE!
President Trump might just destroy the "peace process" in the middle east!
The peace process!
Has there ever been a peace process in more need of destruction?

[Okeefenokee]

The middle east was so wonderful before Trump. Why's he gotta fuck with shit that ain't broke?

[Speaker to Animals]

I'd definitely move it to Jerusalem.

Every time leftists and Muslims throw violent tantrums, do the opposite of their demands.

Kellyanne Conway just came out saying that the press secretary-Spicer gave out the wrong numbers for the ingratiation crowed:

Kellyanne Conway, counselor to President Donald Trump, said the White House press secretary gave "alternative facts" when he inaccurately described the inauguration crowd as "the largest ever" during his first appearance before the press this weekend.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer gathered the press to deliver a five-minute statement Saturday in which he issued multiple falsehoods, declaring erroneously the number of people who used the D.C. metro on Friday, that there was a change in security measures this year and that "this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period, both in person and around the globe."

"These attempts to lessen the enthusiasm of the inauguration are shameful and wrong," Spicer said Saturday.

However, crowd size experts told the New York Times they estimated Trump's audience at fewer than 200,000 people, and widely distributed side-by-side photographs showed the stark contrast between the comparatively sparse crowd for Trump's inauguration and the record-setting crowd for Obama's first.
