I am surprised by this
Are you just talking the talk

I think petro is wanting to just bet that KJU will be leaving NK, not that he will meet Trump. If I recall you posted that KJU would never leave NK.

I did post that KJU would never leave NK
I was wrong
but I never offered to bet on that
My offer to bet was always on a meet between Trump and Kim. Me taking the no meet side.
I figure with KJU able to leave NK increases the odds on a meet
Any more takers?
I have a suspicion that Kim is needful of world class medical care that he knows he can't get at home?Quote: SOOPOOTranslator here........

Or maybe he's afraid to be anesthetized at home, fearing somebody may do to Caesar what he has coming?

I will probably steal that line from him.
Quote: rxwineYou think Trump just announces crazy s**t to cause stocks to go down and up, telling his son's about it in advance so they can profit.
I wondered that in the early days of his administration. He'd tweet out something like the fact that the Boeing contract was high and boom, Boeing would drop. I figured you could get rich just following his tweets and shorting them.
Quote: petroglyphDid kid work pre 16 in the US?
I did. I was a bus girl in a restaurant at 12. Walked beans (pulled weeds from soybean fields) at 12. A hotel maid at 14. Had to be 16 to wait tables. Did that for 7 years. Had to be 18 to serve drinks. Had that job, too.
All legal at the time AFAIK. Part-time before 16, then full time or close to it. All Fwiw.
/ IMO, that was beneficial to youth. My query to Boymimbo was after he said his kid worked as a teen, not knowing the gender of his kid and when, he said they had worked pretty young, I wondered if that work was performed in the USA?Quote: beachbumbabsI did.

I know I wasn't much older when labor laws seemed to be chasing potential workers down the age restriction. I can't imagine how sometimes the smackdown here must feel.
I said something about letting our kids do what you did, which I admire you for, and a rapid comeback made it seemed like I wanted kids to slave.
It sucks when posters twist what we say, and makes me wonder if I said it wrong or they are just serfing looking to needle?
Thanks for enduring, this place would not be nearly as good without you. That of course does not mean we always agree : )
That is a pretty impressive childhood resume you got there. Hadn't figured you for a pearl diver. Was that in the US?
Hell, when I was kid they let you pick strawberries in the summer when you were like 5, the school bus picked us up at the school and took us to the fields. I think it was all white kids, I saw very few adults. You got paid by the flat. They gave you punchcard tags that got punched with each flat you picked. You tuned the punchcard in at the end of the season and they sent you a check. I was terrible and slow at it(I probably ate more than I picked), but I had fun Fking off with the other kids. My older brother and sister made a significant amount of money for the season. I thought it was a good gig.Quote: beachbumbabsI did. I was a bus girl in a restaurant at 12.

I don't know who Vinton Ericson is. Was he touching kids in the strawberry fields or somthing?
#Igotleftout
He owned farms in Clark County and his busses picked all of us up in the neighborhoods to go pick berries. I wondered if you might have worked some of the same farms?Quote: AxelWolfPacific Northwest, Whatcom County.

He was a hard working farmer, I don't know for sure, but I doubt he was predatory towards kids. We made him money.
Ya, I was just joking. I do remember my sister being more than creeped out by some guy who worked the punch card station. She said don't tell Mom or we can't come here anymore.Quote: petroglyphHe owned farms in Clark County and his busses picked all of us up in the neighborhoods to go pick berries.

I was too young to remember who owned what or what the dynamics were. 3rd and 4th grade perhaps. I just got on the bus and knew you could make money. But as I said, I did very little picking. I only went from time to time just for the hell of it.

Wow this is sad. Really explains why you don't understand politics. You can't understand the simple process that there is only one president at a time
Quote: HomelessnycYou can't understand the simple process that there is only one president at a time
Technically they retain the title of "President" for life. So, yes, there's only one incumbent President at a time, but there are currently five other people that are still considered a "President."
But none of them are on a treasury bill.
So you're both right. And wrong. Or something.
He said most of the customers were eastern European, and that the Russian speaking men were invariably a royal PITA, trying to haggle about price, trying to steal berries, just being surly and confrontational.
In contrast, he said the women with them were not that way at all.
Ah, stererotypes.
But back to the thread's subject, Trump:
It is reported that Manafort is counting on a presidential pardon.
I can only hope that the question of the president's power to pardon individuals who are accused of crimes involving him / his election goes before the USSC: otherwise he could be involved in ongoing criminal enterprises while in office, pardoning all involved when the heat got too hot.
I doubt the Framer's would have stood for that.

I specifically said treasury NOTES. Which i believe US currency counts as unless someone points out i am incorrect
They are authorized by the US treasury and signed as well

No, you're correct, and I also meant "currency" as well when I said "treasury bills" (as in dollar bills) but in retrospect "treasury bills" was a poor term to use and is actually something else entirely.
Quote: darkozAnd obviously you have no sense of humor since all those men are dead... and franklin was never president
Its obvious that every time you get called out like this its a joke and i have no sense of humor.

I do feel sorry for you. What can i say? Someone who thinks stating benjamin franklin is my president was a serious comment
Smh
The president is granted the following power:
The President...shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.
Article II, Section 2, Clause 1, U.S. Constitution
To stymie his ability to pardon Manafort and all the others involved in Mueller's investigation it must be argued that the pardons would affect the ability of Congress to impeach him.
This issue would almost certainly wind up in the lap of the USSC.
Interesting times.
