    Funny that you all say it was directed solely at Trump. At any other time most if not all would be standing up and cheering for the ideas expressed by the funeral and all speakers. However you all KNOW Trump fails in EVERY ONE of the virtues praised you think it was dissing DJT....maybe it did because of who and what Trump is rather than anything else. Look into your hearts and ask yourself if you would ever support the prick unless he was facing HRC in 2016. Ask yourself if you would be proud to have him marry your daughter.

    Best line I heard today,”You vote to put a real estate developer in the White House, and you get a real estate developer in the White House.”

    Was listening to Stephen A Smith talking about why Urban Meyer won't have fired.
    He said if I go to a bank and borrow $3 million and can't pay it back In in trouble. If I go to a bank and borrow $300. million and can't pay it back WE are in trouble. That's what Donald Trunp told him years ago the first time he interviews the future POTUS.

    During my oldest daughter's trip around the world, I was expressing my concern for her safety in wherever it was that she was going. After much back and forth, she said "Dad, you're forgetting...I'm a Ninja!". She was being tongue in cheek, but they both can take pretty good care of themselves. Kid cracks me up.

    If someone defaults on $300 million, then it will fall to the taxpayer

    Sort of. Default on a relatively small loan doesn’t threaten the bank’s existence or the managers’. A small loan (and $3MM is to a bank) can be recovered easily.
    A large loan gives the debtor more leverage as the bank is more at risk depending on how much it’s exposed by the loss. That is why banks are willing to make deals before declaring a huge loan in default. DJT took advantage of this often...in fact YOU’RE most likely paying or have paid for his defaults.
    As @dachsie said in today’s environment large losses are more often dropped on the taxpayers. It works for government too. We have leverage on the Chinese and others because they own our debt. If they call it an we default they lose everything.
