@Qunited States Patriot What does hubris have to do with modesty. Qunited, beyond the obvious contradiction in terms.
@waqaa I’ll do the leg work for you little fella. You warned me of hubris, I indicated that modesty, which is the opposite of hubris, does not suit me. Now go rest both of your brain cells.
@Qunited States Patriot Calm down Qun. We’re on the same page. Wait a minute while I activate my other brain cell . . . Okay, it’s ready now. I merely stated that you are professedly an arrogant person, or that you think modesty sucks, that’s all. It wasn’t direct, so maybe I confused you.
These are Bs numbers WHo owns DJI? NOT NORMAL PEOPLE… YangGANG
You seem like you’d enjoy an all male YANG-BANG.
@William H Maybe i could afford it with Yang as POTUS ;/

@David Williams Neo-Marxist/Homofascists . . .Huh! I can see you’re a Big Gulp person Not everyone whats to throw the baby out with the bathwater; in fact, very few do. (How’d you get italics to work? I copy and paste from my WP, but nada.)
@waqaa _ italics _
Thanks, David, but what does that mean?
David Williams, your delusions are entertaining to me. Like a poor man’s Alice in wonderland.
The “economy” and it’s interpretation and role in a rich man’s life.
Shadow It would suck to be poor and miserable 👆👆👆
@Dave Waldon And why wouldn’t it? Really dude?
@Shadow sounds like someone needs to move out of the basement and get a job
@David Smith Sounds like you are a troll. A troll who parrots other not too bright trolls. Do you have anything original or at least intelligent to say oh troll?
@Shadow hit a nerve didnt I basement dweller
The impeached is being good for TV companies and cellphone company’s everyone is watching this Christmas circus this year Santa Claus is going to Cuba.🔔🎅🤐🤐🤐
Sorry buddy but NO ONE WATCHED any of it. They did not watch the Dem debate, NO ONE cares about the Dems impeachment
Thanks God we still have smart people in America.👍
@brian gardner <<--- troll.
No one cares. After Christmas the jobs and retail numbers will come out. People will be very happy with the economy and disinterested in Impeachment.
Only idiots look at the stock market as a gauge of the economy.
That’s why you’re broke. Lol
Are you two mentally ill?
Dont look at stock market, just listen and believe everything CNN says.
Alex and, CNN says the stock market is a good gauge of the economy, dimwit.
@Kevin Ellington Only CNN can say what you should think, shut up and stop analyzing. Dimwit.
Impeachment Procedure
At the federal level, the impeachment process is a three-step procedure.
First, the Congress investigates. This investigation typically begins in the House Judiciary Committee, but may begin elsewhere. For example, the Nixon impeachment inquiry began in the Senate Judiciary Committee. The facts that led to impeachment of Bill Clinton were first discovered in the course of an investigation by Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr.
Second, the House of Representatives must pass, by a simple majority of those present and voting, articles of impeachment, which constitute the formal allegation or allegations. Upon passage, the defendant has been “impeached”.
Third, “the Senate tries the accused”. In the case of the impeachment of a president, the Chief Justice of the United States presides over the proceedings. For the impeachment of any other official, the Constitution is silent on who shall preside, suggesting that this role falls to the Senate’s usual presiding officer, the President of the Senate, who is also the Vice President of the United States. Conviction in the Senate requires a two-thirds supermajority vote of those present. The result of conviction is removal from office.

Ratings are still high on the celebrity apprentice comedian in tweet reality TV show
He has exposing the FRAUD every day
Impeaching a person for doing their JOB of enforcing the laws of congress broken by Joe Biden says that impeachment is a cover up especially when the House held these meetings in the basement WITH OUT CONSTITUTIONAL protection and very few little evidence for the POTUS ???
Then impeaching on a LAW that is already adjudicated ??? This is a cover up ??? Nancy can’t submit the articles with out being EMBARRASSED /Exposed ????? Then she try’s to EXTORT the Senate with her Quid Pro Quo ??? Nancy is a crook ??? Like Biden and crooked H ??
@Oliver Phippen “He has exposing the FRAUD every day”
Yeah, but it’s his own fraud. That’d be like turning yourself into the police after stabbing someone to death and saying you caught the murderer.
@Pokarot Stabbibg /Stabbing no one went that Eextreme
except Dims
We are talking about catching a crook called Jope Biden
We dont have to stab him ??This is why Dims should never manage / lead again ???You people are extreme ?????
@Oliver Phippen Are you drunk? Are you having a stroke? What is wrong with you?
@Oliver Pippen
Have YOU got that backwards. Repubs. have been screwing up timelines to confuse people, and you fell for it too. Nowhere does it show Joe Biden singlehandedly was responsible for the crooked Ukraine IG being removed. Almost all western countries threatened sanctions against the Ukraine if he wasn’t replaced, and Joe Biden. was just the US’s front man. All of that was before H. Biden worked for Burisma, and the new IG did another investigation. It’s not like asking Russia and China to hack the countries our “secure” servers, or bribing a foreign country to announce a phoney investigation into the Biden’s. It’s not like telling employees to break the law, and threatening them with their jobs if they don’t.
Then there’s insulting a family that has served in the House of Rep. for 85-90 years straight! And serving in WWII, not like dodging duty by paying off a Dr. to “diagnose” Pvt. Bone Spurs unfit for service. I’ll agree on one thing, he’s unfit to serve. He couldn’t serve at a McD’s drive-through.
Trump will find a way to screw up the economy before the election. It’s in his blood!
James Persinger It must suck to be poor and miserable
Maybe give more pertinent information like this:
The U.S. government’s public debt is now more than $22 trillion — the highest it has ever been. The Treasury Department data comes as tax revenue has fallen and federal spending continues to rise. The new debt level reflects a rise of more than $2 trillion from the day President Trump took office in 2017.13 Feb 2019
Don’t forget the 21 trillion off ledger debt. Secret space program has been paid for. Now we’ll call it space force.
Yeah Mike. The economy is doing great because unemployment is low and trade deals are being signed. Too bad wages haven’t been adjusted for inflation since 1968.
Wages are seeing a rise for the first time in nearly two decades. CNN doesn’t report this? Not surprised. They hate Trump and one can only speculate WHY they are so opposed to a president with actual pro-america policies.
Your wages maybe. But it’s a pretty arrogant statement to make, to assume that is true for everyone. Like what was said, manufacturing has been hit hard. My wife working in the accounting dept. of an auto parts supplier will definitely argue that statement. She works longer hours for no change in pay. My wife, happens to be ridiculously loyal, and has been for over 35 years to the company she works for to give up everything that she has invested in it.
@Michele M 1.2% YIPPEE let’s go buy a Yacht!? Let’s see 1.2% of $10 an hour is? Oh….my bad…

Funny Trump’s approval rating is going up, the economy going up, support for impeachment down. Unemployment down. But wait – CNN will tell us how this hurts Trump. Making news Daily CNN.
Fox news is lying to you! People want Trump gone!
Layton, literally none of that is true. You are such trash.
Russians Trolls starting to work for help for Trump!
Yeah, of course we are russian trolls keep thinking that dummy. More salty tears after the election in 2020 and surprised faces: but but but how?? We thought those were just russian bots??? How???
I’ll tell you, dumbass, just because you dont like that half the country (and I’m sure more since people hide the fact that they love trump to avoid abuse from the left) loves the president and will vote for him doesnt mean we are bots. You are the reason why I love supporting my president! More I called a russian bot more I cant wait to go vote!! Keep up a good work dumb democrat!!! Maga! Kag! Trump2020!
So… did CNN just admit that the economy (or at least the Dow) is performing well under Trump? LOL
