Yep.

Just blamed accountants for advising companies to use legal loopholes to avoid higher taxes.

Should be a great topic to hear others talk about tomorrow at work.

Yes. His economic illiteracy is a fricking bottomless pit.

He talks about the "lost revenue" from tax loopholes..as if it were government's money to begin w/. Not once did he mention how to incentivize capital to flow to our markets. I really do hate that demagogue.

It's sad that there are people in this country who are more concerned about squeezing as much money out of companies as possible, than concerned about growing the economy.

It's an ideology of pure hatred, greed, and jealousy.

He's talking about Ukraine right now. Bumbling and stuttering


Has a deer in the headlights look

He's out of his element in regards to foreign policy

Why all of the talk about American companies taking their ball and going elsewhere?

How does random stuff like this just pop up out of the blue and become the theme for the week?

He refers to corporations as "denouncing citizenship." Someone needs to inform the dolt that corporations can leave the U.S. completely if they choose to. The man is an utter economics retard.

The thing is, he & most of his supporters I know, believe that companies & the "rich" have a moral obligation to pay that money in taxes whether the loophole exists or not.

Someone needs to inform this African reporter about James Rosen being spied on. He's asking the wrong Prezzy about freedom of the press.

He is, however I'm pretty sure his "denouncing citizenship" language is just for rhetorical purposes.
