I went back a bit because I missed the start of the speech. Also, Trump blamed Detroits problems on Clintons (whether Bill or Hillary, not sure, maybe both) policies when the cities problems actually go back decades.... Not surprising that he pinned it on Hillary.

Actually found a transcript of the prepared speech, I think. It... says basically two things of substance, as near as I could tell. Massive tax cuts across the board (somehow making up the hit to the gov't budget with increased overall trade?), and more or less unilateral deregulation. And. That was the only things that wasn't either attacks on clinton or obama, or promises of more details "later".

I guess it wasn't quite as bad as I was expecting (mind, those two things are pretty disastrous, but nothing much was really said, overall), just significantly more full of empty hot air. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but I always get kinda' hopeful someone claiming to state something that's pretty reliant on some degree of detail will actually put out, for once. If that Detroit speech is the actual economic plan that was claiming to be slated for release, anyway.

Incidentally curious about the new york electorate's reaction to parts of that speech, though. I vaguely remember hearing about some of them being kinda' pissed about trump claiming to be (one of) the state's economic savior(s).

BTW, he's going to release his economic plan on Monday I believe, so, lets see what he gives.

... bit late, but... didn't he (or at least his campaign) say they were going to do that back in... May or somethin'? I distinctly remember being stoked a few months ago to get to see a contender for the least competent economic plan to come out of a major political figure in decades, and iirc it didn't happen.

Is there any indication this isn't going to be Vaporware Economic Plan Mark 2, Revenge of the Tax Returns?

The answer is always only two and a half years old.

Google (eldritch newspaper game) seems to think it's Daily Chthonicle.

*eyeballs the world's trans population* Yeah, I'd probably disagree that everyone that gives a shit about gender are all assholes. Just a titch of disagreement, there.

One where about a third of every page was empty.

Objection! Any color scheme that consists of anything except red, white, and blue is unpatriotic and has no place in this thread. Flag dat stuff up, y'all.

What about the gold fringe on flags that sovereign citizens occasionally claim makes courtrooms not actually apply to them?

To be treated as appropriate for sovereign citizens. You may apply pitchforks at your discretion, but torches are mandatory.

Though I guess you could claim the yellow text smattered around the thread in the only theme worth considering the existence of covers that anyway. So long as it stays away from the red, white, an'blue.

Also clinton/kane supporters may substitute red and black as they please, but if they do, they have to arrange the lettering into the shape of a scorpion tail. Peace through power, my fellow americans.
