NikoBaltimore Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 It seems Newt wants to remind people that he can be as batshit insane as Trump. Mission accomplished. And for the love of everything please don't start shit with Japan. I want to learn Japanese and go there, please don't ruin this for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolidGoldBomb Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-sba-exclusive-idUSKBN13W2QY Congrats to Linda McMahon! All her hard work in politics finally paid off, she got a seat at the Big Table with her being selected to run the Small Business Admin! Can't wait to see what she does to energize small businesses around the country. She has the chance of a lifetime to be a part of the greatest administration in United States history. Glad to know The McMahon's will be on the front lines fighting for US to Make America Great Again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 So how much of WWE's business has Linda truly run in the past? I know she held high positions, but wasn't that more of a figurehead type of deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I've heard she was a big part of merchandising in the past (80s-90s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 That's why her kids were always in the catalog wearing sweaters. Or this awesome shirt: Holy crap, this is the best shirt ever worn by Punky Brewster here: Way better than what Blossom is wearing: These are the fine sort of things the small businesses in America have to look forward to.

piranesi Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 At least we don't have to worry about WWE toning down it's content now that Linda's in the political spotlight since there is apparently literally nothing anyone in Trump's cabinet can do or say that is outrageous enough for anyone to give a fuck. Remember when congress spent like a year investigating first lady Hillary Clinton's Christmas card list? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggulator Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 That hiring is insane, even when you get past the general "wrestlers don't have any rights" stuff. The WWE is not even close to a small business. Generated over $600 million in revenue last year. Secondly, the SBA's main purpose is to back loans banks issue to small businesses. That helps businesses get more affordable interest rates since they are now less risky. A bunch of SBA admins earlier at least came from a finance/banking background. Or actually ran a small business that had some connections to finance. Linda McMahon has none of that. He essentially sold this position to her for last donations.

WWE going back up to at least PG-13, if not straight-up R, would be no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 If I recall correctly PG WWE has more do with the companies they work with, and Vince prefers PG anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've little liking for the Donald or Vince & Linda when you get down to it, but this isn't that odd of a pick. The WWE had 13 employees when Vincent K. took over and was a regional fed. It now has over 800 employees and is a world wide money making machine. Sure, they were huge donors to Trump's campaign and I agree in full that this is payback, but as far as being qualified for the position, she's a better choice than most of the fucktards he's been bringing in with no relevant experience to the position.

Ryan Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 I still think our country is going to be sold off piecemeal the next four years in some fashion. State by state. Michigan gets to become a part of Bolivia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
