BTW I’m passably smart. Used to be OK in French. Kind of rusty though. Can hear Spanish but not speak it well. Tried Japanese and failed horribly.
Anyone who is fluent in at least two languages cannot be an idiot. JMHO.
Pearls were very traditional. One of my prized possessions is my mother’s pearls. don’t talk bad about my mama, :-)))
I worked with three little ones and day care expenses were a killer. I had twins my second time. My daughter had one in day care and pays $600 a month. Families really could use some help. I won’t argue the point. It’s just a fact.
Ivanka! (doh)
They must mean Hillary.
Everyone had pearls in the 50’s and 60’s. In my teens...we had pop earls....like Hillary.
“I’m a huge advocate for women and women’s issues, like child care,”
If it is American children, then that is okay. Obama has a passion for non-American children. He calls them Dreamers and wants American parents to provide for them with tax money rather than their own kids. American kids can’t dream, evidently.
If woman’s issues means daycare, all well and good. If it means abortion, not so good. I take some comfort that her family are observant, not secular Jews, and that she is an accomplished businesswoman. She’s got to be better than VJ.
“The bit about Trump going into rages in the middle of the night and having to be “calmed” sounds like fake news to me.”
How can that be known?
You don’t accrue the kind of wealth he has without immense self-control and discipline.
Isn’t it Melania who speaks five languages? Hadn’t heard that about Ivanka.
Corrected up thread. Yup, it is Melania.
I do not care for some of her less-than-conservative ideals.
:)
Actually D1 it’s a great idea. We want to encourage families to have children. One of the things I consistently hear is childcare eats up most of their paycheck. We want people to work rather than just get welfare, we want people to at least replace themselves (2 children).
Prediction:
Both Establishment Republicans and Democrats will do their best to divide and neuter.
They will try to create division between Ivanka and Priebus. Watch the fake news where Ivanka and Priebus will say the same thing in slightly different words and the media will claim they are fighting for control of access to Trump and control of what Trump hears and sees.
Likewise they will try to create division among the various national security appointees. And division among the various voices on healthcare, or on any and every issue.
What will be interesting is whether Trump supporters will take the bait the elite feeds us and turn on Priebus, or Price, or Flynn or Haley over some fake news purposely created to neuter the movement.
Mike Lee already is going to introduce a bill to limit the presidents tariff powers...
Children are better off being taken care of by their mothers instead of strangers.
