actually whether the budget deficit is harmful to America is debatable if the economy grows. To some economists, they see it as a non-issue.

But of course it's debatable.

 

 

His kids are running his business and helping him set up his white house team.

First time in the recent modern history of the united states, the president hasn't given up his assets in a blind trust.

 

 

That's like asking the foxes to appoint the watch dogs of the chicken farm [laugh]

Trump is a 1st in the history of USA in many counts. But from what i read he is surrounding himself with many top guys from the financial industries. That will be very bad for global business!

you do know how much more he can make from being the POTUS rite?? dont even need to take abt his current worth...

 

friendly wager.. after this presidency... his nett worth will up 50% minimum? [laugh]

 

3.7 to min 5.8

aiyah.....most country leaders are secret millionaires but they dont declare lar. The list of PM whose children runs profitable business is very long.

Generally speaking, USA presidents aren't generally very rich.

 

Cos they know after u retire, u can have speaking engagements etc (universities, corporations) which give u $. Hell Jimmy Carter still can earn a decent living 30 years after he was president LOL.

Clinton gets paid millions as he's a sibei charming speaker.

 

Mitt Romney was worth quite a bit <100million type when he ran in 2012. But he's a pretty boring speaker.

his best speech was when he refused to sarpork Trump hahaha...

 

 

Generally, the occupation of CEO is quite congruent with the strength of sociopaths  -_- I can imagine in finance, particularly more so.

Not really. Trump just sounds like a 10 year old child speaking in class.

 

 

Objectively, Bill Clinton is the most charismatic speaker I've seen. Obama is up there as well though more rhetorical.

Our LKY is the forceful type LOL [laugh]

 

Around us, CSJ and Anwar are pretty charismatic as well.

 

For the republicans, ah... George Bush Junior is actually quite charming as well.

wah...you like the cowboy with so many gaffe har? I agree Carter,Clinton and Obama are the good speakers that commands attention when they speak and Trumps.....he is in another league that oni rednecks can identify with...

Most election campaigns are a contest of charisma, more so than execution. Such are flaws of so-called democratic elections.

 

Various forms of representative democracy tries to balance out the flaws, so it is not always just about the popular vote.

 

well i used to watch the USA presidential debates until this year.

I thought that one of the reasons Al gore lost to Bush Jnr then was because Bush Jnr is just more charming. Al gore is a bit of a dead stick lol  [:p]

No lah, seriously, @Radx don't lock this thread.

 

Let's keep this thread alive for the next 4 years. Easier to consolidate the Trump news and gaffes and what nots.

Ask our leaders to take $1 celery, confirm they will quit.

U really don't think our leaders serve with their hearts and passion?

 

I truly believe pinks will still serve for $1, and his wife as Temasek chief for $1.

I think from the discussions so far, it's only a tradition (politically correct) to do so. 

 

This link seems to confirm that too.

Initially, it should be noted 

that there is no federal statute which expressly requires that particular federal officials 

place assets into a “blind trust” upon entering public service with the Federal 

Government. Rather, the use of a “blind trust” is one of several methods of conflict of 

interest avoidance under federal law and regulation. There are now uniform statutory 

requirements for the establishment and maintenance of blind trusts, and federal officials 

who are to use such devices, either voluntarily or as a remedial measure for identified 

conflicts of interest, must receive from their supervisory ethics office prior approval of 

the proposed trustee and the trust instrument to qualify the blind trust for ethics purposes.
