Happened to see Stephen Moore being interviewed yesterday and it was pretty obvious that he wouldn't have done well in testimony to be nominated--he seemed like a nutcase.

The thing about Moore that probably killed his nomination was the non-payment of child support. The average voter might not grasp the ins and outs of Supply Side economics, but they've paid their own child support and have known people who refused to pay for their children.

Sorry Trad, but you get a failing grade on this one.

North Korea's Kim Jong-un, who is another leader with surprisingly small hands
It seems within the art small palms are of paramount importance if you want to be a leader.

Website YourChineseAstrology explains people who are tall and have big bodies but little hands are usually "quick-minded, adaptable, decisive, and impulsive and have nothing to fear; you are bold and open-minded, and you like the decisive work".

Also of interest - it's suggested men with small hands "will get great wealth". You can't argue that Trump has not achieved that.

A piece from the Guardian:

"Golf.com first reported how Trump “won” a 2018 club championship even though he was out of town because he demanded Ted Virtue, an investment firm CEO and the actual winner of the championship, play him for the title. According to Reilly, here’s how it all went down:

[Virtue] was playing with his kid, who I think is 10 or 11 years old. He [Trump] sees Ted on the 9th hole and decides to drive his cart over there. He tells Ted: Congrats on winning the club championship, but you didn’t really win it because I was out of town.

Ted tries to laugh it off, but Trump is dead serious. Trump says, “We’re going to play these last six holes for the championship.” And Ted’s like, “I’m playing with my son, but thanks anyway.” But Trump says, “No, your son can play too.” So they end up playing.

They get to a hole with a big pond on it. Both Ted and his son hit the ball on the green, and Trump hits his in the water. By the time they get to the hole, Trump is lining up the kid’s ball. Only now it’s his ball and the caddie has switched it. The kid’s like, “Daddy, that’s my ball.”

But Trump’s caddie goes, “No, this is the president’s ball; your ball went in the water.” Ted and his son look at each other confused, not sure if this is really happening. And Trump’s caddie says, “This is the president’s ball. I don’t know what to tell you.” Trump makes that putt, wins one up, and declares himself the club champion."

I think we just assume that you must have freakishly small hands.

I'd rather be rich and have small hands, than be poor with large hands.

Charlottesville would not have happened if the Police did their job. Like it or not, Far-Right group had a permit - the Far-Left wing group did not and the Police made no effort to keep the two groups apart.

Come on dolo. Blaming the police for what happened in Charlottesville is kind of like blaming abortions on the doctors who perform them and not the people who make the decision to have one.
No one wants to bear responsibility for their negative actions and everyone wants to place the blame on a separate entity. That's the American way these days.

Interesting. I remember saying something similar in the gun control thread and being assured that I was incorrect and that it was indeed the guns fault not the persons.

“I’m pleased to announce we’ve just reached agreement with Canada and Mexico,” Donald Trump said. “We’ll be selling our product into those countries without the imposition of tariffs.”
Thank you Donald Trump!
