Making America great again:

US consumer confidence rises to 18-year high

WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans’ consumer confidence rose in August to the highest level in nearly 18 years as their assessment of current conditions improved further and their expectations about the future rebounded.

The Conference Board reported Tuesday that its consumer confidence index rose to 133.4 in August, up from a reading 127.9 in July. It was the highest reading since confidence stood at 135.8 in October 2000.

Consumers’ confidence in their ability to get a job and the overall economy are seen as important indicators of how freely they will spend, especially on big-ticket items such as cars, in coming months. Consumer spending accounts for 70 percent of economic activity.

I'm guessing a meme that they're passing out that's already been disproven.

Donald Trump and Ted Cruz go to the same barber shop one morning for a shave. They are in adjacent barber chairs and their shaves are at the same time.

When Trump's barber is finishing up, he asked if Trump would like some aftershave. Trump replied, "No. My wife will think I spent the day in a whorehouse."

When Cruz's barber is finishing up and asks the same question a few seconds later, Cruz replied, "Sure. My wife doesn't know what whorehouses smell like."

Media bias? There is no media bias!

For one the balloons aren't the same, one is Trump depicted as a baby and the other is putting Sadiq in a bra for some reason - unsure why though. That difference, however, stands out. If Sadiq is gay, then that's a potential attack on his sexuality. If Sadiq isn't, it would more akin to the Trump and Putin are gay lovers "joke" which people on the left have also called out as being bigoted (homophobic).

Basically, it comes down to the balloons are clearly not the same - unsure what message the balloon's creators were trying to get across though. But, it does seem like it's potentially targeting the lgbtq community in some way.

Fake news LOL.

Trumpsters sure are desperate.

News sometimes does make mistakes and right-wing news does this all the time as well.

If a news publication that makes corrections is "fake news" - every single news outlet on the web with ethics (notes corrections) is "fake."

Don't really keep up with the folly in this thread anymore but when I watched this documentary I immediately thought of spaces like this, a good watch and revealing story of importance regarding the colonnades of this 4th estate

It remain to be seen; Trump is all bent on destroying Quebec family farms for the benefice of US industrial scale farms, and neither Canada federal government, or Quebec provincial government want such a thing.
There is also this thing about Trump wanting the market conflicts been resolved by US tribunals.

For Trump a good deal is a deal that is only favorable to his side, even if bad for the other side, but things don't work that way: it's not like the Canadian government don't care about the interests of it's country.
Nor the canadian government want to give fuel to separatist parties one month before Quebec election, even if a PQ victory is unlikely now.

Trump planning on a 200B tax increase on Americans.

more welfare for the rich, crumbs for the middle class, and the back of the hand to the working class.

The fake, paid, organized, Leftist agitator machine is in full swing.



Paid, did you say? Fake, did you say? Why yes, fake and paid.

Fake protestor causes public disruption in the Senate, gets ejected, then gets paid for her disruption as soon as she's outside the building:

anything that can at least slow down the coronation of that neofascist dotard rump defender is only a good thing.
