Btw I caught some of SNL's skits.

Even my mom and her coworkers were talking about the skits today 

She's in her 50s and works as a nursing assistant in a nursing home. Most of her coworkers are female and in their 40s and up as well.

Never thought they'd be sharing SNL Trump skits and talking about it at work

I'm surprised Trump hasn't tweeted anything this morning

 

[Teknoman]

-it's not my end game, it's what I'm checking off my lists for now.

-regulations would've KILLED da muscle car era as we know it now. da Obama administration was pushing hard for that vehicle fleet electrification customer demand or not, because of ideological purposes. Their rich environmental donors were militant in their objection to fossil fuels...keep it in da ground type ****.

-im a Libra, paitence is something I got a very deep reservoir of...pays off cuz in da end I always get what I want.

Dude you really need to evaluate your life.

You do realize their are multiple ways to generate electricity thereby making it a longterm alternative to burning gasoline right?

 

[Mark Antony]

O'Reilly pressed on, declaring to the president that “Putin is a killer.”

Unfazed, Trump didn't back away, but rather compared Putin's reputation for extrajudicial killings with the United States'.

“There are a lot of killers. We have a lot of killers,” Trump said. “Well, you think our country is so innocent?”

Majority of Americans really couldn't care less about no Muscle car, with gas prices, leasing options and having families amongst other things, there isn't room for no muscle car in the average Americans life....dude like many who supported Trump are as narrow minded as they come, he fell in love with Trump because of one promise and ignored everything bad that comes with it....typical Trumpette behavior, little by little they all falling flat on their faces.

Now this I can agree with

I know a cat that's so excited about Trump due to impending gun reform

His response: I finally get to buy a suppressor!

So all these people suffering / being discriminated against / being targeted / trade policies that no one agrees with / innocent people dying is cool.

As long as you get the suppressor?

Dude voted for Trump so he could buy what's basically a fashion piece for a gun? Lost ****** man

Tbh
Our country have been killers in the international community for many years
But the deflection for Putin still is

 

[Belgium]

After tragically losing his spine again, it seems he's slowly trying to grow it back

But his vote on Devos will probably set him back again

 

[Mark Antony]

"We have a lot of killers" sounds like something other countries should be concerned about and should probably institute some restrictions.

Wonder if Trump will lash out at McConnell for not wanting to waste loads of federal money to investigate "millions of illegal votes for Clinton"

 
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell  (R-Ky.) on Sunday said he doesn’t want to spend federal funds to investigate what President Trump claimed was massive voter fraud in the 2016 presidential election.

While McConnell says there is voter fraud, he doesn’t believe it’s as widespread as Trump claims or requires federal intervention. He says that cleaning up voter rolls is best left to the states.

“Election fraud does occur,” he told CNN’s “State of the Union.” But he added that “there’s no evidence that occurred in such a significant number that it would have changed the presidential election.”

“I don’t think we ought to spend any federal money investigating that. I think the states can take a look at this issue. Many of them have tried to tighten their voter rolls, tried to purge people who are dead,” he added.

Trump claimed during a meeting at the White House with congressional leaders earlier this month that he lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton  because of 3 million to 5 million votes by illegal immigrants.

The president announced on Jan. 25 that he would ask for “a major investigation” into voter fraud, including a review of people who are registered to vote in two states and people who are deceased but still on voter rolls.

Republican leaders who were gathered at the annual Republican retreat in Philadelphia when Trump made his announcement said they saw no evidence of voter fraud on the scale claimed by Trump.

Was the Obama administration planning on making them illegal?

do yourself a favor and stop thinking bout muscle cars.. you're confusing yourself.

think about it from a BROADER perspective..

regulations make companies do things that don't take this business interest.

when da car manufacturers signed off on da initial government Cafe mandate, they did it so California and other rogue states didn't have a patchwork of state regulations that sky rocket da cost of production with different standards...they took it as "well we rather have em streamline regulations nationally so it's easier to comply"

plus Oil wasn't da abundant glut of supply it is now, so car manufacturers thought da petrol wave was really coming to a close....

then Fracking happened and oil prices crashed.

as shown in da car & driver article, left to their own devices Americans prefer buying bigger powerful trucks, and cars.

da Government was forcing car manufacturers to make cars that WEREN'T selling, which costs them money because gas is gonna be cheap, and there isn't a incentive to buy those hybrids, so that's money down da drain for a product collecting dust, cuz of government ideology and over regulatory reach.

But there are great big engine cars currently in production already, I'm assuming those will still be available and I'm also gonna go on a limb and say that even if they cut down production on newer muscle cars, THEY WILL STILL BE MADE, just be more expensive and exclusive as they will target a very small group, just because everyone isn't buying a Lamborghini, doesn't mean the company is not gonna make them....so in the end regardless of the administration, you could have still owned your car, just under one it wouldn't be as affordable as it would be under the other, you get how selfish of you this is, you sold your vote to a bigot for the promise of a cheaper car, in the end that's what it comes down to with you personally.

http://Say what you will about Chrysler/Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne; the man has somehow turned around the weakest of the Detroit Three and turned it into a money-making machine. But all is not well with Marchionne, who sees trouble ahead for all automakers, and that trouble comes in the form of the 54.5 mpg CAFE government mandate. NBC News reports that Marchionne recently went on record as saying that V8-powered muscle cars, like Dodge’s own Challenger, will soon become “as rare as white flies.” Is Marchionne right, or is this a case of “the sky is falling.”

http://www.streetmusclemag.com/news/chryslerfiat-ceo-v8-engines-to-be-“as-rare-as-white-flies”/

there's da Fiat/Chrysler CEO talking with Trump in January.

it's all about da Grand scheme of making da government more business friendly.

Porsche had to drop their V6 and got a 4 clyinder Cayman, da 911 was next..VW group was fighting it tooth and nail.

...sooner or later all other exotics would've fell on da same sword.

Rusty appreciate it.. but you know dude doesn't exist to me

Considering the stuff peddled by his boy and his cronies sources should be the last hill he should be wanting to die upon

so you're explaining is basically "they do it too!"

oh OK.

you read that and saw some sort of explanation?

I just find it funny that you would be championing the cause the same week of the "bowling green massacre" and "it's not a ban"

The Dodge Charger could have become extinct if Obama didn't save it though.

Do you know what the purpose of the CAFE requirements was intended?

You honestly believe car manufacturers would spend on the R&D to to increase fuel efficiency if they didn't have too?

At the end of the article you posted, it asks the reader, do you think this is the case? or is this just this guys opinion...

it was created during da oil embargo...same as da National speed limit...

car manufacturers are going to invest in things that make them money.

all this arbitrary cafe standards pushed da US auto manufacturers to concentrate on SUV/truck sales because da regulations made car production unprofitable...you add da fact that Foreign brands didn't have to subject themselves to expensive UAW union costs & healthcare then it's. so they were operating at a disadvantage.
