Q: What do Donald Trump and the Scientific Method have in common?
A: They are both sexist!

College science classes are hostile to women and minorities because they use the scientific method, which assumes people can find reliable truths about the natural world through careful and sustained experimentation, concludes a recent dissertation by a doctoral candidate at the University of North Dakota.

For the first time in the Detroit News newspaper's 143-year history, its editorial board endorsed a presidential candidate who wasn't a Republican.

It's a perfect outcome for Obama. He earns diversity points by siding with the practitioners of The Religion of Peace without any of the negative consequences.

Agreed, but you say that as if it's a bad thing. If you can make a prudent decision that also just so happens to mollify armed/unreasonable people, that sounds good to me.

I do think it'll be interesting to see how willing anyone is to seize assets in order to pay any potential claims. New York is the logistical nerve centre of the global financial system, and the US in the past while has suddenly become willing to use that status as a political tool. Iran sanctions, online sports betting, etc. The USG has the global financial system by the balls a little bit here. The expense and complication of moving would be profound, not to mention it would take the consensus of the world's largest banks on a number of things, including how this is done, and where would be a politically neutral place to move it to. And you can always count on somebody -- usually Russia -- to oppose something just to be oppositional.

I think it'll be a while before the USG uses this political tool to such an extent where the banking sector as a global entity decides it has to move, but what an interesting test of the current global system it would be.

Citi is in a really interesting position here with its plans to move into Saudi. Bush went to Saudi after the financial crisis to help banks raise capital. Prince Al Waleed is still a major Citi investor, I think.

I guarantee you that Barack Obama does not give a shit whether something it is a "prudent decision". It's all about advancing the cause and making decisions that are consistent with his devotion to Socialism and White Guilt.

Tyrants never do, amirite? Especially Kenyan tyrants.

[hack]

I don't know how it is that you can know that. Don't even see how you could make it a well-supported opinion.

[Wild Hoss]

Kenyan tyrants are known as the least prudent. Thats what Drudge told me anyway.

Trump used to mock Clinton for avoiding the press and not holding news conferences. Well, since she got sick she's been questions pretty much daily while Trump hasn't held a conference in over 2 months. Indeed, he's restricted his media appearances almost exclusively to Fox, preferring to bask in the warm glow of his good friend Hannity's praise.
