I would like to see him buy a CVO and have the same issues we have.  I think there would be some changes...

Since Trump has put a muzzle on the EPA....I  wonder if that was really about the EPA $12MM hit and them getting a little refund??

Did you all see where HD fired 150 of their American IT employees and farmed it out to a contractor in India. Now the contractor is gonna place an office in Milwaukee to service HD and is applying for H1B Visas left and right to bring in foreign nationals to man the IT department. One stipulation for a H1B visa is the requirement that no qualified American people exist to do the job. WHAT!!!

What about the folks who were doing the job before?

Excuse my French but that is Chicken $h!t!!

Bad move HD!!!

It's all about the money anymore.  And words like customer satisfaction, building in the quality, integrity, honor, heritage, loyalty, etc.?  Well...those are just words...right?

Old news, they did it in 2012 to a company called Infosys. Moved datacenter to India. Probably close to the factory where Trump has his ties made, LOL.

Infosys was the company referenced as being the company HD contracted too. I saw it on screen after reading and watching the article related to the visit to DC to meet Trump. The article mentions that the actual process started in 2012, something I missed the first time I read it, but implied the lawsuit over the H1B visas was ongoing.

Pence does. He has participated in several charity runs of late.

Pence is a Patriot Guard member.  Not sure how much of that he will get to do as VP.

Biden was on Leno's garage a while back and said he hasn't driven since he became VP - that it wasn't allowed. So that bike is going to sit for quite some time which sucks for him and the bike.

I'm surprised Biden could pass the test for his "M" class on his license...

Biden doesn't ride... he drives.   And it's a pretty nice '67 vette.  Need to watch it at 4:40 when the 2nd vette shows up.

I wonder if they discussed the many layoffs and pay cuts the employees have endured over the last several years and the massive outsourcing overseas to keep high margins and their high executive paychecks?  Did you notice how many of the HD staff were not riding?
