His cabinet would just be Trump impersonators he met along the way and people to promised to give him lots of money for a lot of power. He'd get to sell out the livelihoods of others while crowing about making sick 2 nasty deals and would also be virtually assassination-proof as the White House would be 50% orange clownmen by volume

Patter Song posted:What lobby was Carter a slave of? The guy started selling grain to the USSR in the middle of the Cold War. He made some pretty bad calls on energy policy. Dumped a bunch of subsidy into coal and technologies that didn't work. lovely energy environment, to be sure, but none of his answers were any good either.

I really can't believe Trump supporters argue he's not beholden to corporate interests when he is corporate interests personified. It's weird that this even has to be explicitly spelled out.

Unrelated question: Between Trump, Rubio, and Cruz, does either candidate support suspending green cards for legal immigrants who earned their STEM PhD in the US? And assuming that a new president were to suspend green cards for such individuals, how long would it take to for this order to take effect? Can this be halted overnight, or is it as complicated as signing Obamacare into law?

theHUNGERian posted:Unrelated question: I recall that Trump has said that foreigners educated at top US universities should be able to stay in the US, but Trump isn't particularly bound by his past statements or reality in general. In any case, I think all the candidates would really prefer to avoid this particular avenue of the immigration debate; STEM PhD programs at elite universities are dominated by foreigners, suddenly making it less likely that they can stay after graduation would decimate some sectors of big business. For example, the finance industry would be hit very hard given that so much of it's "innovation" in quantitative finance comes from STEM PhDs (to make no mention of the foreign masters graduates who are fed into the meet grinder to keep the whole thing running). I'd be surprised if any candidate would explicitly adopt such a platform unless they are forced to do so via the electorate, and I don't see that happening since it's such a niche sector of the immigration debate.

It's weird that this even has to be explicitly spelled out. You're an idiot. Yes, he is a single corporate interest. He builds hotels and casinos, which flourish off economic booms and a burgeoning middle class. But more importantly, Trump isn't a moneygrubber as much as he's a huge narcissist. He wanted money to use it for power and adulation. Money is a scoreboard, as president he won't sacrifice his newfound power for an increase on that lesser scoreboard. You should worry about Trump going full wars of aggression more than you should think he would ever be corrupted by lobbyists for money. It's weird that this even has to be explicitly spelled out.

The X-man cometh posted:I doubt they would, because that would hurt big business. Well, I breathe a sigh of partial relief then. Still, I would be far happier if the candidates demonstrated this understanding (foreigner gets STEM PhD in US -> doesn't get green card -> goes to Asia/Europe to apply their knowledge there -> bad for US; therefore keep foreign STEM PhDs in US and encourage Americans to get STEM PhDs) verbally or in writing. The same way McCain did.

You know, it’s like, aren’t we all on the same track, whether you’re a liberal, a Democrat, a conservative, a Republican, or all of them? I mean, aren’t we all sort of on the same track? You want to make our country great. I know people that are Democrats that love our country. I know people that are liberals, believe it or not, that love our country. Whether you are for Bernie or whatever, you know we all want the same thing. Safety, jobs, healthcare, it's so simple. I wrote the Art of the Deal. Right? We need the Art of the Deal. We need the Art. They never read it in this administration. They’re the only people that didn’t read it. Together we can make America great again. I fight for you. Trump won't let you lose. Together we will win. Together we make America great again, better than ever before.
