Now at least we know why Mitt Romney lost an election that was his to lose to Obama! He stands in good company in this group! He has no shame ...

Those quotes were "spoofed" via Twitter. Try to keep up with things and don't just react to the rhetoric like "free healthcare", "free education" etc ...

Let me see, hmmm. He stands about 0 percent chance winning the national election. Quoting Mussolini? Are you serious, my father fought in Europe against guys who quoted Mussolini. Gross.

The CEO should be working at the corporate headquarters because right now he is 35+ miles away from the corporate office. Trump needs to ground the corporate monster. bring jobs back and mandate the CEO's live and work from their corporate headquarters or based on origin of greatest headcount. BAC turns people into robots (everything is scripted).

Buffett is not an economist. He's just a lucky investor who began investing in the 1940's -, the start of the longest bull running market ever. He just had to pick companies that were sure to survive!

“Stock-based compensation is the most egregious example,” Buffett said. “The very name says it all: ‘compensation.’ If compensation isn’t an expense, what is it? And, if real and recurring expenses don’t belong in the calculation of earnings, where in the world do they belong?”

Buffett has been arguing this point for as long as companies have been excluding this expense from their income statements.

“This Alice-in-Wonderland outcome occurs because existing accounting principles ignore the cost of stock options when earnings are being calculated, even though options are a huge and increasing expense at a great many corporations,” Buffett said in his 1998 letter to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders. “In effect, accounting principles offer management a choice: Pay employees in one form and count the cost, or pay them in another form and ignore the cost.”

Better Trump than Rubio. Rubio is such a loser. Rubio is just another affirmative action candidate like Obama, which would be another term with a loser president whose only success is that the previous president was "so awful"! Try to see through Rubio's pathetic rhetoric.

Trump hates anyone that doesn't look like him or have the same economic status as him. It's laughable how you think he is actually going to protect you. You'll probably be a Hunger Games participant before you know it. The only thing Marco Rubio said right was Trump would be selling appliaces if he didn't inherit 200 Million. Otherwise, the entire GOP is a joke.

Indeed, Trump is the only rational choice for the working stiff. Politicians of both parties have shown themselves to not give 2 shits for the people who vote for them. Obama, I'm sure glad he didn't do half of what he said he was going to. Republicans voted in a congressional landslide couple years back might have been democrats. Vote Trump and give the middle finger to all of them if for no other reason. Can't be any worse than what we've have for politicians in the past at least 20 years. I'll vote for him just because he doesn't care to act like a politician. Last thing this country needs is more politicians, lawyers, or banking executives pulling their strings.

The lesser of 2 evils... Doesn't matter anymore as Americans are still not going to be better off compared to decades ago and will continue to be screwed by politicians and corporations. Nobody cares anymore!

Trump is nothing but a wannabe Hitler-like dictator. The country is nuts if they vote for him. Sickening.
