Anybody who thinks President Trump is the performer under the big top should realize that the circus has three rings, and Democrats occupy all three of them!
No doubt he intends to keep his significant stash.

yes deblasio you are the miracle worker, too bad it is unsustainable because you are enabling more and more leeches instead of responsible citizens. But you will be out of office before it really implodes so you can go right on beleiving your lie that you did good.
I need and deserve some of Warren’s money...
Too bad Comrade de Blasio won’t be getting all that money from Amazon.
One wonders why these CEOs are raving liberals propagandising communist crap at work
He is so full of it. If he had an agreement (not an agreement with contingencies as most agreements have) he would be suing Amazon for breach. I have no doubt that whatever they agreed to was tentative at Amazon’s discretion. And ultimately it would always be their decision - they could build the HQ2 and then decide to close it, sell the building, etc...

Bloomberg, Soros, Steyer, etc. Start there. That’s lots of money in the wrong hands.
Where's the popcorn?
Too much of it is in government hands. We need to reduce tax rates even more!

But if wealth is primarily created, and if its creation involves hard work and risk and sacrifice … well, then the world will not conform to socialist expectations.
I absolutely lionize this man. I was lucky enough to have dinner with him twice; the last time just after he bought his “retirement” farm in VT. He was a joy to be around and loved talking about his farm. His “Free To Choose” TV series was required viewing when I was teaching econ. He is missed...
There. Fixed it.
He was/is the BEST spokesman this nation - nay, the world - ever had for free enterprise, freedom, and everything related to those matters. He was eloquent, clear, concise, witty, and never rude. He would be firm and not back down, but I never saw any exchange he had (on video...I never met the man...I’m envious of you, FRiend) where he went ballistic. We could learn a thing or 1200 from him today.
I was teaching at Creighton University when one of my colleague’s daughter was looking for a good MBA program. I’d had her in class several times and she was a superb student, albeit a bit naive and socially awkward. I recommended she try to get into Chicago’s MBA program, which she did. Of course, she had heard me praise Friedman a bazillion times and was familiar with his work. She was walking across campus in Chicago and saw Friedman walking towards her.
She said: “Aren’t you Milton Friedman?!”
Friedman: “Why, yes I am.”
She said: “I thought you were dead!”
Friedman: “No wonder you look surprised.”
You gotta love the man...
I think hes entirely correct but for all the wrong reasons. Corruption. I dont believe Amazon as it appears and that some interesting stories will come out in the not too distant but not immediate future.
