"I believe that China purposefully not buying our soybeans"

Wow, you figured that out all by yourself, Detective Canklesores?

lol? As if Americans are drowning in Chinese cooking oil or there aren’t already 30% tariffs on them

A tweet from Trump that reads “I believe that China purposefully not buying our Soybeans, and causing difficulty for our Soybean Farmers, is an Economically Hostile Act. We are considering terminating business with China having to do with Cooking Oil, and other elements of Trade, as retribution. As an example, we can easily produce Cooking Oil ourselves, we don’t need to purchase it from China.”

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

I used to think people just didn’t understand what Columbus did but now I think some are really attached to him (as opposed to other worthy italians to celebrate) because their whole thing is not only getting away with doing horrible things but forcing everyone to praise them for being horrible

George Michael releases “Faith” as a single 38 yrs ago today.

Asked why he chose it as a title, he said: “I believe that the forces of Good and Evil are real things. … I do not have a religion, but I believe that one can influence one’s life, one’s future, through faith and decency towards others.”
