Why in hell would a Norwegian emigrate to the USA? I know two who did. He was a bow hunter who came on a number of annual big game expeditions. 30 years ago he developed a better bow. He and his wife emigrated first to Ohio to build a factory and sell bows only because the costs were lower since almost all bows were sold to Americans. His niche is why he came. He stayed because he became wealthy and had American kids, now adults, who are American Westerners. Visits Norway every summer for a month. Brags a great deal about his homeland, especially their socialized medicine.
Only the cost of his bows produced these immigrants. Had he stayed in oil, as he was in Norway, he'd still be there. The white Europeans that our Shithole President wants largely have zero reason to come here for any more than a visit
EXACTLY.
I hope I just deleted a duplicate
EXACTLY.
Nothing wrong with dups.
Do NOT be Bipartisan with this sick, amoral, anti-democratic, hateful, ignint, Motherfucking Shithole. He’ll be in jail, not soon enough, but soon enough.
Happy Friday, Citizens!
Technically, I believe that one lives in a shithole. One is a shitbag.
An important distinction, certainly.☺
Okay, Zappy, please explain how anybody can go to jail "not soon enough, but soon enough."
inquiring English majors want to know.
I carefully avoided an English major — but did teach speech and debate. I'm sort of curious about the logical elements of the variation in the space-time continuum implications of "not soon enough, but soon enough."
I am an English major, (and a poet) and it makes sense as poetry. See: anaphora , antithesis
What poetry does is inspire questions in the reader's mind. In this case, how long can this go on? How soon can impeachment / resignation / 25th amendment action come? How soon will relief come? Will we have any country left when it's "soon enough" for action?
Don't listen: it makes perfect sense.*
* I know. omg
As for Norwegians receiving favored immigrant status in Drumpfmerica, I can only imagine: . . .
1. Stable genius has heard about, and admires, Norway’s growing skinhead/neo-Nazi movement?
B. Norway rhymes with “poor pay,” and stable genius likes that idea as the basis for his next tax plan?
6. Stable genius heard somewhere Norway’s where the Sweedish Bikini Team came from?
3. His BFF Kim Jong-un told him that’s his favorite place to vacation?
g. He wants to reward Norway for all it’s recent F-52 fighter jet purchases, and all the American jobs those purchases have created?
A. All of the above?

He's just trying to rescue all those politicians of pure European ancestry who are being incinerated by the ravening Muslim hordes in the Norwegian no-go zones.
erasing duplicate.
The president of the United States is a racist. That is the takeaway from his comments.
But, to your point, what we should all want in immigration policy, what has made our country great, is the ambitious, the daring, the risk takers. Those willing to work long hours to build a better life for their children. Willing to risk the wilderness in exchange for an opportunity. These people may come from the most developed countries, but probably not. Comfort and security do not generally foster the desire to work hard and take risk. Trump does not understand this because, even though he has never worked a hard day in his life, never had to worry where his next meal would come from, never had to worry if he could get health care for his child, he thinks that he is a risk taker and an achiever. He is not. He is a racist asshole.
The president is delusional. Isn't that clear to everyone, yet?
He is not.
He is a bigot. He is a moron. He has the attention span of a gnat. He is incompetent.
But, he is not delusional.
Our Stable Genius has just accused two FBI agents of treason . . .

. . . in Drumpfworld, this can only mean one thing — Trump is guilty of having committed treason, and he knows it!
Dear Leader naturally thinks that any criticism of him personally is treasonous. Just like all the other dictators he so greatly admires (and envies).
Thanks for the link, Dio. Not just dumb as a rock, dangerous as nitroglycerin.
“Go Trump!!!!”

Dobson isn’t praying hard enough.
Expect Moderatus to weigh in by bringing up Bill Clinton.
….and demand due process.
Maybe god is just tired of listening to the old hypocrite? . . .
I’m going to get out ahead of Moddy on the Bill Clinton defense:
If you could find the little guy, buried as it is under that gut of his.
When you can't live in disgust and fear another moment…shed a little light.
No Friday Jams thread again, so leaving this here….
I'm learning this lovely song, along with my UU choir. The version here was performed by James Taylor and the Lowcountry Voices Choir, shortly after the massacre by the racist terrorist in Charleston, NC.
Nice!
That made me happy, M.J.
MLK knew a few things about how to keep going in times like these. We could do much worse than to "turn our thoughts today to Martin Luther King." Happy birthday to Martin on Monday!
