Trump's policies are totally flexible and reversible and determined by whatever he thinks will make him popular, rich or famous on any given day, and preferably all three .
They should have hired a better photographer - subject off-centre, poor lighting, cluttered background and Trump's eye is half closed unless it's supposed to be a leering wink. If I was Trump I'd sue for incompetence.
He'll be happy about that mainly because his `release the hostages, OR ELSE' bluster won't be tested. He wouldn't have had a clue what to do about the `or else' part.
I'm not so sure Marty. I agree that two negatives multiplied together are a positive, but
in (-2²) the exponent is worked out first so (-2²) becomes (-(2²)) = -4
as opposed to (-2)² = (-2)x(-2) = 4
In the above example:
-(-2+2-2) - (-2²) becomes
-(-2) - (-4)
2 +4 = 6
So, revenue raised by tariffs imposed on exporters but actually paid internally by US importers is now redefined as `external revenue`? Sounds like a good plan by Trump to convince his supporters of his financial genius while they wonder why they're paying more for what they buy.
Turned 93 in August last year. Looks more like 103 in that first photo. so I think OT is probably right that it's been modified.
Still, hard to believe she's 93. Doesn't seem that long ago that I was watching that show. ☹️
All egotistical bluff and bluster at this stage. Lets see what actually happens when he gets in and whether his competency matches his ambitions. "When I take over, all hell will break loose" may be right, but it won't have anything to do with the hostages, just his chaotic mismanagement.
He’s a nutcase. He might even scare Trump because he’s so much richer and in some ways more influential. Trump doesn’t like competition from someone he can’t easily intimidate. Will be interesting to see what happens when they don’t want to be on the same team anymore.
I got caught like that once. Had a credit balance on my credit card, withdrew some of it on-line to pay into another account and immediately got hit with a $20 or $25 fee. That was NAB or Westpac. Can't remember which. Never did that again. I'll bet they all do it.
I’ve better too. Glaucoma knocked off a lot of vision in one eye (the other one is fine) and I lost my wife in August so life has been a bit hard. Nevertheless it’s Christmas and we’ll have a good day.
