“…with the exception of one business that collapsed into multiple bankruptcies, Trump does not operate a public company; he has no fiduciary obligation to shareholders to obtain the highest returns he can. His decisions to turn away from American producers were not driven by legal obligations to investors, but simply resulted in higher profits for himself and his family.”
Something good to remember when the spin/pushback comes.

Yeah, I left my PA hometown and headed south because there was nothing but a skeleton of the steel industry left (or any other “backup” industrial base), That was in 1979. And it had been going downhill since at least 1970.

Somebody in my Facebook Feed keeps liking to say that “Trump/Clinton are the two most unpopular candidates ever to run for president!” The classic way to measure favorability is to subtract favorability to unfavorability. Here’s how they rank.
Clinton: -11.6
Johnson: -12
Stein: -14.6
Trump: -19.8
Yes, Hillary Clinton is in fact the MOST popular candidate running for president right now, beating Gary Johnson by a nose!
Now critics might point out that this is because most of the public doesn’t know these two candidates. Gary Johnson has, for example, undecideds at 44.6%. And while one is tempted to say ‘all these people would love Johnson/Stein if the lamestream media would give him some air!’, I think it’s fair to say that that’s not the case. As a simple example, I ran a simple model where I pretended that all undecideds were forced to choose, and chose in the same proportions as the people who have already decided. This was not pretty for the third party candidates.
Clinton: -11.9
Trump: -20.5
Johnson: -21.9
Stein: -32.3
This may seem unfair, but frankly, it may be generous. Gary Johnson’s favorable/unfavorable ratings were pretty close to tied as recently as September 1st. In the last month, pretty much everyone who has decided to take a look at him has rejected him. If THAT trajectory continued for every undecided voter that took a look at Johnson, he’d end up with the popularity of the bubonic plague.

Jill Stein’s rating has similarly been flat for favorables and growing for unfavorables, although not as extremely as Gary Johnson.

I do think splitting the undecideds is generous.
If more people knew about Johnson’s positions and ideas beyond marijuana legalization and marriage equality, and if more people knew about Stein’s idiotic statements about vaccination and the potential health hazards of wireless communication, they’d be viewed a lot less favorably.
Most people are not paying as much attention to political minutiae as the average Lizard. Hell, the first debate is the first exposure a lot of people had to Trump as a candidate rather than a celebrity.

It would probably be fairer to say that Trump/Clinton are the two most unpopular major party candidates to run, at least in the last 100 or so years. Goldwater may come close.
I do think that with everything that rides on this election turnout will probably be pretty depressed as compared to the last couple of elections.

PUTIN PRAISES FARMERS FOR RUSSIA’S STRONG GRAIN HARVEST
MOSCOW (AP) — President Vladimir Putin praised farmers Tuesday for making Russia’s grain harvest this year the highest in post-Soviet times.
Agriculture Minister Alexander Tkachev reported to Putin on Tuesday that this year’s output is expected to reach 110-115 million metric tons, the largest yield in a quarter century.

It’s been a few days since I’d considered what utter douchecanoes the NRA is. Glad they took time to remind me today.
France has the same problem with guns coming from the rest of Europe that Chicago has with Indiana.
“…France seems to be awash with guns. The guns used in high-profile terror attacks are really just the tip of the iceberg. In 2012, French authorities estimated that there were around 30,000 guns illegally in the country, many likely used by gangs for criminal activities. Of those guns, around 4,000 were likely to be “war weapons,” Le Figaro reported, referring to items such as the Kalashnikov AK-variant rifles and Uzis. Statistics from the National Observatory for Delinquency, a government body created in 2003, suggest that the number of guns in France has grown by double digits every year.”
………….“…It’s believed that most of these weapons come from the Balkan states, leftovers from the wars that took place after the collapse of Yugoslavia — some estimate there might be as many as 6 million weapons remaining in that region. Once they make it into the Schengen area, there’s little to stop them from making it all the way to Paris, where AK-47s can sell for 1,000 euros ($1,072), according to Bloomberg.”
France has around 1,800 firearms deaths every year, even with weapons from the Balkan war available.
More than 33,000 firearm deaths yearly in the United States. Thanks, NRA!
re: #60 jaunte
The NRA stupidly wants to present an image of country and states existing in a vaccum where it’s nearly impossible to transport guns from one place to another. As you already pointed out, a lot of guns that get used in Chicago’s gun homicides are in fact from Pence’s Indiana.

Wonkette has a live one. They’ve gotten a lovely missive from Rob Morrow, ousted head of the Travis County GOP and author of The Clintons’ War on Women regarding Bill Clinton’s abandoned son Danney Williams. Hilarity ensues.
Thinking about this statement from Pence over not clearing Keith Cooper’s record for a crime he did not commit:
“Although the judicial system may not be perfect, given the extraordinary nature of Mr. Cooper’s request, we need to be certain the judicial process is complete and has been given every opportunity to address any error that may have occurred.”
It reminded me of the Futurama episode where the public official refuses to release Fry because he doesn’t want to appear to be soft on the innocent. (I’d go find the video but I can’t from work.)
Deer hunter update:
I mentioned yesterday that while I was out in the country I had to haul a deer carcass out of the lake. One of the neighborhood crack shots had put a bullet into the doe’s stomach.
I left it down in the low part of the property for scavengers, and an hour later almost a hundred vultures arrived. Coyotes came later in the evening. Today the body is completely gone, bones, hide and all.
Trump Fans: “Losing a billion $ is old news, it happened 20 years ago. Now, lets talk about Vince Foster and White Water.”

Here is a Columbus Ohio Steel Processing success story. Worthington Industries.
So successful, the McConnell family are the owners of the Columbus Blue Jackets NHL Hockey team and have been a big part of the Columbus scene for many years.
And they got pretty big with plants all over America, Europe and Asia. They make all kinds of steel products. Many are specialty but they do make rolled steel products too.
