Donald J. Trump stinks.
Great God Almighty.
That big oaf stinks.
Stay upwind, America.
Help is on the way.
18,500 – number of US Border Patrol employees at or near the US – Mexico border of 1954 miles, or 9.47 per mile.
28,000 – number of US military personnel at or near the North Korea- South Korea border of 160 miles, or 175 per mile.
Come home Amerika……
So once Trump declares the Korean War over and done with, and signs a treaty with his friend, Kim Jong Un, he can redeploy those troops along the Rio Grande?

I'm confused. Do you think the number (whether big or small) of people attempting to get across the US-Mexico border are anything like the threat of North Korean troops going across that border? Do you think the Border Patrol enforcement agents and the US military troops have much in common?
And since the website http://www.cbp.gov/ says there are only 21,000 agents overall on ALL borders, doesn't that make our coverage of the Canadian borders a bit light? Not to mention the entire Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, and Pacific coasts?
I'm also confused. Maybe Allyn can refute a statement I've seen a few times on Yahoo News threads (paraphrased).
Reality: Trump supports open borders. Biggest source today of illegals is people who overstay visas. Trump says and does nothing. Trump also ignores flow of illegals and drugs across the 3,000 mile border with Canada and flow of illegals into ports on the Gulf Coast. And, the mayhem on the southern border is just for show so Trump can impress his base.
The troops on the Mexican border are trying to keep Latinos out. The troops on the Canadian border are just watching as Americans flee Trumpland for refuge in Canada.
I'm sure it is purely a coincidence but did not the 9/11 hijacker come in from Canada?
I was reading a lefty economics blog about how fracking folks are basically idiots, but I got linked out from there to an oil industry rag piece that makes clear that fracking has never made money (emphasis below mine)?
So, of course, I jumped to the IEA report, where I read this bit:
WTF?
The
sad, failingNYT broke the story on this a long time back. It's like the joke we used to use in the cattle-feeding business: 'lose a little per head, make up for it in volume'.Google shale gas Ponzi scheme and you'll find a lot of credible articles to peruse.
And with interest rates rising, there go both profits and company viability.
It's the classic curse of capitalism — competition ultimately pushes profits to zero — so sayeth Karl Marx.
Oh great, but not much of a surprise. Our Commerce Secretary was chosen by Trump for his particularly skillful grifting. Kleptocrats anyone?
Ol' Wilbur knows where all the bodies are buried.
Yep, these two con men both have quite a few graves between them, and swap tips on how to inflate their "billionaire" net worth.
Ross’ “genius” status per Trump, no doubt is due to his saving Trump’s ass in Atlantic City, as your article documents.
