@glitterbag,
True: Here's what Obama's gun control proposals is all about.
http://www.ncsl.org/research/civil-and-criminal-justice/summary-president-obama-gun-proposals.aspx

Statistics on gun violence in the US.
Quote:
Gun Deaths:

More than 30,000 people are killed by firearms each year in this country

More than 30 people are shot and murdered each day

1/2 of them are between the ages of 18 and 35

1/3 of them are under the age of 20

Homicide is the second leading cause of death among 15-24 year-olds

And the primary cause of death among African Americans of that age group

Gun Homicides (average annually):

Less than 50: Japan

Less than 150: Germany, Italy, France, etc.

Less than 200: Canada

More than 10,000: USA

Why don't you explain to us what that tantrum was against the NRA?

Were you in a coma in 2013? It's kind of hard to not notice something that occupied all the headlines for months (and which ultimately wrecked Mr. Obama's entire second term).

At any rate, here are a couple quick refresher links for anyone who doesn't remember the first half of 2013.

Denying reality is pretty futile. So is childish name-calling.

So that sentence and all the fanciful ones after it are utter crap.

History shows that every step in my prediction (except for the last step which remains in the future) has happened exactly as I predicted.

@oralloy,
You call this a tantrum? ROFLMAO

Quote:
By Matt Spetalnick and Steve Holland | WASHINGTON
President Barack Obama launched the biggest U.S. gun-control push in generations on Wednesday, urging Congress to approve an assault weapons ban and background checks for all gun buyers to prevent mass shootings like the Newtown school massacre.


This country has the most gun violence deaths in the world by multiples. You're too dumb and blind to know better.

Children killing children.

Mr. Obama spent months wasting his political capital in fruitless attacks against the NRA.

The end result: No political capital to achieve anything else in his second term > a wasted second term > the voters having a very strong desire to change control of the White House > President Trump.

Absolutely brilliant timing.

Time will tell if the last step is correct as well.

All CI did was falsely accuse me of his own stupidity. What's so special about that?

New Records Suggest Donald Trump Misled the Public About His Income
Source: Mother Jones

According to his FEC financial disclosure form, which was submitted in May, Trump collected $296 million in "golf related revenue"—a full 42 percent of the income he cited in the debate. But this figure did not take into account the costs of running all his courses and resorts. Most of Trump's businesses, including his golf courses, do not have to publicly disclose how much revenue or profit they yield annually. But there are three exceptions: his two Scottish golf courses and one Irish course. Corporations in the United Kingdom and Ireland must submit public reports that list revenue, expenses, and profit.

Trump's FEC financial form noted that his two Scottish golf courses earned him a combined $23 million in "golf related revenue" last year, with Turnberry pulling in $18.1 million and Aberdeen making $4.8 million. But the public filings the courses submitted in the United Kingdom tell a much different story. Trump's prized course at Turnberry—where he made a much ballyhooed appearance right before the Brexit vote—reported $16.8 million in revenue in 2015 and $18.6 million in expenses. When interest, depreciation, and currency exchange losses are factored in, Trump's Turnberry course lost over $2 million in 2015. And the corporate filings in the United Kingdom show that Trump's Aberdeen course lost about $1.6 million.

That means that Trump's reported income on the FEC financial disclosure forms regarding just these two projects is $26 million more than what they actually made. If these courses are representative of Trump's overall finances—$23 million in "golf related revenue" is really a $3 million loss—his declared $296 million in total "golf related revenue" may well be highly overstated.

-snip-

The golfing revenue discrepancies call into question much of what Trump reported in his FEC financial disclosure form. On that filing, $415 million of the $694 million Trump touted at the debate was described as some kind of "revenue." And the rest of that amount was money that also might not take into account the costs of his ventures, such as rent and land sales. Perhaps a large percentage of his reported revenue might have been profit, but the FEC form provides no way to determine that. Trump's income could be dramatically less than what he claimed.

You mean Trump might be running for President because he needs the money?

Sounds like Trump. He also claimed he graduated at the top of his class, but there's no record of his name under any scholastic honor; cum laude.

Our older son graduated summa cum laude, and our younger son cum laude.

@cicerone imposter,
It is unseemly for you to go around casting aspersions on your intellectual betters. You should really consider piping down on the hypocritical false accusations.

Bet he scored really well on the mathematics bits (and the understanding of IQ tests bits).

How will Donald Trump handle losing this election?

Well, basically he just won’t acknowledge it. He’ll further layer himself within his alternative universe. You know, the universe in which he’s smarter than everyone and all women want him? In that universe he doesn’t have to acknowledge a Hillary victory. He has already recruited a bunch of mouth breathers to “patrol” the voting precincts in search of those sure to ”steal” this thing from him. Trump has declared the polls “rigged” in favor of “crooked” Hillary. So when he loses, he almost certainly will not agree to leave the stage. He will not acknowledge his loss, or his opponent’s victory.

He has been busy sowing the seeds for a real live nationwide conflagration when he loses.

You remember those heady hours and days after the first Obama win? Well some beady-eyed little coward republicans could never acknowledge the resounding victory – they could only find one reaction in their teeny hearts… they decided that they were just going to say NO to any and everything Obama proposed. That was their brave and wise response, and they have kept it up religiously for about 8 years now.

Well, I predict that Trump and those unfortunate souls who have hitched themselves to him are going to make that obstruction – including the government shut downs, the “you lied” during the SOTU speech, and all the unrelenting disrespect – they are going to make those things look downright patriotic when Trump loses.

I predict a **** storm when Trump loses - unprecedented in its scope and ugliness. A big, long lasting, far reaching **** storm – courtesy of that gold plated sham; that adolescent narcissistic pustule Donald John Trump.

What do you think Trump's end-game is in an election loss?

He will probably start screaming, hollering, and crying like a 3 year old child. After his temper tantrum, he will blame anybody and everybody and not accept any of the blame. Then he will take his itty bitty hand and snorting runny nose home to his mommy and daddy. He will complain that everybody is unfair and that he doesn't want to play anymore.

Seems like to me that you guys aren't taking the potential damage he can do -even in loss - seriously.
