    See latest version of a calculation here. I have a pdf of the pay-walled paper, but not sure I can attach it here?

    You should be able to upload a pdf. It is listed as an acceptable format.

    With the Twitler-in-Chief at the White House, what better time to resurrect this thread.

    Indian diplomat says what no one else will about Ivanka Trump

    Unelected, unqualified, daddy's girl gets to represent us on the international stage and no one seems to care. These folks were up in arms every time Michelle Obama dared to express an opinion, on school lunches of all things. How did we let this happen? :shakehead:

    By fielding an unpersuasive candidate who acted as if she was owed something.
    Re: Ivanka and the Indian "diplomat": That is a very undiplomatic remark, even off the record. Not the brightest of IFS officers, I imagine.

    Sometimes, the last of the options in a multiple-choice question is d) None of the above. We had a bunch of politicians who could barely speak up leave alone competing with a candidate who is alleged to be backed up by a formidable foe. At the other end, we had one candidate drowned in the investigation quagmire (but alleged to be liberally funded) while the other is socialistic liberal who could have given so much to people and put the country on a debt-trap that would be difficult to recover from. Where were the left-conservatives and right-liberal candidates who could have implemented fiscal discipline while using his/her heart to govern?

    Regarding Indian diplomat, it is a shame for a country to suck up to the unelected and unqualified adult child of an elected President to please the President. It fails to fall under the category of diplomatic actions.

    If anyone here watched jimmy kimmel's show last night you will agree that he delivered a brilliant monologue covering all the reasons why he won, his big messups after becoming president & his brilliant recommendation in the end : to make him a ceremonial king of US (like royalty of England) instead of president, so he can be happy but has no powers at the same time, so we can finally be at peace!! Here is the link, pls watch, it was one of jimmy's best monologues (even better than one he gave after birth of his son!) pls watch

    If you missed Jimmy Kimmel's monologue on Trump, you shouldn't - CNNPolitics
