When Trump's statements are fact-checked, he is far, far, far, ... far less truthful than anyone else in politics.

Uhm, just to be fair, Hillary Clinton lied regarding every aspect of her private email server debacle as has been proven by the FBI. See the FBI director's testimony to Trey Gowdey and the FBI Director's initial report.

Cute how you chose to ignore the Crimea excursion just a few years ago... And you do know how Russia became the USSR, right? That's right - they rolled tanks into their neighboring countries, like Checkoslovakia and the Ukraine, after world war 2... Before a World War 2 it was just Rusdia, after WW2 it soon became Union of Soviet Socialist Republics... by force.

Oh, I think it'll more than double the cost per unit to build them, because you can't pay only a dollar a day to U.S. workers, and you have to give them health insurance, retirement packages, etc. So I stand by it ending up with a suggested retail price of $3000.

A 256 Gig iPhone 7 has a retail list price of $849, and it currently costs $224 to manufacture. What percentage of that $224 is actual human labor? 1%? 5%? Let's say it's 5% (but I'm pretty sure that's a high number), that means it costs $11.25 per phone for manual labor. Assuming Apple maintains it's $625 profit per iPhone, that means labor costs would have to ballon from $11.25/iPhone to about $2,151/iPhone, about a 200x increase in labor costs. If it is the 1% I think it is, then the labor costs in America would have to increase 1,000x current costs assuming Apple is content with $625 profit per phone.

With automation (robots) Apple could just as easily make their iPhones in America as China or anywhere else. Is there some reason the robots employed around-the-clock, seven days a week grinding out iPhones in a Japan can't be brought to America? The actual hands-on manual labor involved in iPhone production is quite low, and could/would likely be reduced once labor costs go up to US worker levels.

The point of moving iPhone production to the US isn't to bring back jobs, it's to make America more self-reliant, send less US dollars to China.

Did this 'analysis' consider the underwhelming support the septuagenarian white woman (HRC) enjoyed from the black community and whether those majority-minority districts had paper or electronic voting machines? I strongly suspect that the large, Democrat-controlled major cities in MI, WI, and PA have the crucial combination of electronic voting machines and indifferent/unenthusiastic minority voters...

Trump should be reminded again and again, he would have lost big time without net neutrality, likely would not even have made it past the primaries, he should not destroy what served him well and will serve his family well in the future.

WTF are you talking about? How did Trump benefit from ISPs being forced to treat all packets on the internet equally? Really makes no sense, please explain how pricing guidelines put Trump in the Whitehouse?

For example, without net neutrality rules, internet providers like Comcast and Verizon could charge internet subscribers more for using sites like Netflix.

Net Neutrality also prevents internet providers from providing 'un-metered' streaming from video services.

Pretty sure Russians rolled their tanks right into Berlin back in the late 1940s. More recently, wasn't there a little excursion into Crimea from Russia a couple years ago? Oh yes there was...

Try visiting anywhere east of the Mississippi River... asphalt or cedar shingles are most prevalent in residential construction.

Much of the cost savings Musk is anticipating comes from shipping the materials.

What is the cost of shipping a pallet of asphalt shingles compared to a comparable number of his solar panels?

Traditional roofing materials are brittle, heavy, and bulky.

Compared to tempered glass solar cells? Really? I can drop a pallet of roof tiles off the back of a delivery truck and have almost no damage.

Shipping costs are high, as is the quantity lost to breakage.

Asphalt shingles are made all across the country, whereas these solar panels will be made in one central location, requiring most shingles to be transported half-way across the country. Loss due to breakage is acceptable, not excessive. Oh, wait, does Elon Musk thinks everyone has clay tiles on their roofs?

China has one active carrier, one in dock being rehab'd from the Ukraine, and two brand-new ones under construction since 2011. Russia doesn't need a navy to attack Europe, they can just roll their tanks across the continent (they've done it before).

You seem to think that he had an articulable strategy back in 2012 - he had no strategy then or now, he literally said whatever popped into his mind.

Trump won because he spoke to the white majority, Hillary lost because she spoke to the minorities. On election night, the major TV networks spent the first 2 hours of their coverage focusing on the Latino vote, as if that was the deciding factor - it wasn't.

Democrats 'evolve' and 'clarify' their wording all the time, why is Trump's first utterance on the subject the only one acceptable to you? Shall we hold HRC to her first position on Gay Marriage, for example? While she was First Lady she opposed gay marriage, then, when the polls changed her position 'evolved'. Want to argue 'she wasn't an elected official? Go ahead, then I can remind you that neither was Trump 4 years ago when he tweeted it. One time. Then 'evolved' into his claim it was a joke. My point was the absurdity of calling a 65 year-old businessman posting on twitter a 'Trump Social Media Campaign' - it was more 'shit my dad says' than a 'social media campaign'.

The only one I can think of is Russia, even then their navy is antiquated and would be facing every modern NATO navy.

The Russian navy is not 'antiquated', and you seem to dismiss the Chinese navy out of hand, why? For all practical purposes, NATO = US Military, since the whole purpose of NATO is to allow member countries to rely on neighbors, US, if attacked - no one NATO country is capable of fully-defending itself alone.

There is no navy on the world, except the US one, that is a (threat) to the UK's, or any other European navy.

Have you forgotten about Russia and China?
