true to form, Trump is a notorious playboy who's not satisfied with just one ruthless dictator love affair:

Imagine voting for a party led by Schumer, Feinstein and Avenatti

They're on two different wave lengths.

Leftists are focusing on internal conflicts, such as race relations, internal income inequality, etc.

People like Bannon are focusing on external conflicts, such as trade, military and the united states position relative to other nations.

There is a time to look internally, no doubt, but I think that making sure you don't get crushed by other nations is more paramount than ironing out perceived inequality. Especially, when you're already the richest country on earth.

A combination of the two would be nice.

Trump's speech at the UN opened with awesome 1999-style left wing policy chops, filled with math and tangibles.

I'm cool with all that.

But I do not want, in any form, social conservatism to exist in this country anymore. It needs to be stomped out like a disease.

The new United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is aimed at bringing more jobs into the United States, with Canada and Mexico accepting more restrictive commerce with the United States, their main export partner.

The pact preserved a key trade dispute settlement mechanism sought by Canada even as Ottawa agreed to open up its dairy markets to U.S. farmers. It will also make it harder for global auto makers to build cars cheaply in Mexico.

Prof Strumia, who regularly works at Cern, was speaking at a workshop in Geneva on gender and high energy physics.
He told his audience of young, predominantly female physicists that his results "proved" that "physics is not sexist against women. However the truth does not matter, because it is part of a political battle coming from outside".
He produced a series of graphs which, he claimed, showed that women were hired over men whose research was cited more by other scientists in their publications, which is an indication of higher quality.
He also presented data that he claimed showed that male and female researchers were equally cited at the start of their careers but men scored progressively better as their careers progressed.
When the BBC contacted Prof Strumia he said: "People say that physics is sexist, physics is racist. I made some simple checks and discovered that it wasn't, that it was becoming sexist against men and said so."
