Congressman Jerry Nadler fought me for years on a very large development I built on the West Side of Manhattan. He wanted a Rail Yard built underneath the development or even better, to stop the job. He didn’t get either & the development became VERY successful. Nevertheless,....Then I changed course (slightly).... very funny.
....I got along very well with Jerry during the zoning and building process. Then I changed course (slightly), became President, and now I am dealing with Congressman Nadler again. Some things never end, but hopefully it will all go well for everyone. Only time will tell!

"Only time will tell!" you that time is a racist social construct!!! If NPR is to be believed that is...

You know that stings when every career politician like Nadler who dreams -- literally dreams -- of being president sees an upstart like Trump take the entire enchilada in one fell swoop, a "slight" change of course.
Once again Althouse quotes Trump unironically and without noting his completely unpresidential style. Exclamation points! It is your blog and you can choose what you write about, but I just don’t see how you give Trump a pass on all the stupid content of his tweets. /LLR
A horizontal shift from the private to public sector. That's not funny.
"Only time will tell!" you that time is a racist social construct.
Mother Time (h/t Gold) is of the many "white girls next door" (h/t Hope Solo, The Guardian), but, ironically, never enough, and even Father Nature and her fetuses follow Mx. Time's (h/t United Airlines) progress. Diversity, literally, at the end of a white whore (h/t NAACP)... hole.

Other than Hillary, would there have been any other Democrats that wouldn't have LOVED and ADORED Trump... If He'd ran as a Pro-Choice Democrat?
They don't hate him for immigration or trade, they hate him for becoming Pro-Life (which exiled him from the Democrat party)
Nadler changed course to follow Trump, and where once Nadler was wrong in the yard, time will tell if he is wrong in the house, and everything will go well despite him.
A "nadler" is someone whose nads are hidden under thick sheets of fat.
The rest of America wants Nadler to keep his NY pissing match in NY. Not interested.
I don't know the NYC real estate details, but am reminded of Tip O'Neill saying that, "All politics is local."
Certainly the case where I live, Chicago. I was frequently bemused how commentators both left and right just could not understand Obama, a product of the Daley Machine with a strong dose of Alinsky, Operation PUSH and Trinity Church. Other than Rev. Wright in 2008, it's not even as if Obama tried to hide it. But, people just refused to even try to understand the relations with Rezko, Davis-Minor, Michelle's relationship with Jarrett, South Side versus West Side politics, and so on. I assume because they were more comfortable fitting him into a 1-dimensional ideological frame, good or bad depending on taste, rather than going to the effort to really understand his political origin story.
I don't know the history of Trump and Nads, but given that one was a corrupt NYC politician and the other was a flashy big time NYC real estate developer I just assumed that there must have been bad blood. Does Nads have any association with the Southern District of New York prosecuters?
Winning can be a way of life.
ah rezko, notably garrow's war and peace length tome, didn't focus much on this Syrian slumlord, nor his Baathist patron nahim auchi, who would be a facilitator in the oil for food program, Italian division, nor his Iraqi associate, who would be subsequently ailed for embeszzling from the power company, there is strong suspicion it was this element was why Obama continued to vote for funding re Iraq till 2006,

Care to expand? Everyone I read was fully aware of all of this and talked about it regularly.
Go Nadler!
I used to tell my kids during the last election that there might be "buyer's remorse" with support of Trump. But was I wrong! He is what the doctor ordered for this country. I just wish the Repubs would finally wake up and realize that they are going to have to fight for our country. Trump is leading the charge and it would be nice to have a few followers besides all us deplorables.
It is perfectly obvious Nadler loathes Trump for personal reasons and out of his wounded victim mentality with the weight of a thousand mountains.
still trying to get that musical off the ground, bag, yes Obama was a denizen of the Chicago swamp, with some alinski and even arabian influences, yet that part of the story, like the joyce foundation, or khalidi's arabist lobbying scarcely came into the picture,
Funny about the 'buyer's remorse' theory. Two [former] friends told me they were willing to overlook my support of Trump during the election but could not accept my failure to repent of it later. One of them just informed me of this last week! I laughed. Even though we had plenty of other things we shared in common, they can't get past my political leanings. Even though I never broach the subject--it is always they who jump into the topic with both feet! These people really are deranged.
Chuck seems like a pretty intelligent guy and well read. I can't figure out why he totally discounts all the great things Trump is doing focusing totally on his dislike of the theatrics of Trump. And just think what could be done with some congressional support!

Nadler represents Manhattan's Upper West Side, which is chock full of well-heeled liberals, the patrons of Lincoln Center and the museums, all of whom found Trump utterly abhorrent because he was always so much in everybody's face.
Nadler was speaking for his constituency, who were hysterical at the thought that Trump owned and was building on a huge tract of land on the West Side, what used to be the old NY Central/Penn Central rail yards before the Pennsy went bankrupt.
This was a huge series of outbursts and hysteria, from Mayor Ed Koch, Nadler, and all the "great and good" of Manhattan.
Then Trump suddenly embraced his critics' plan for a smaller, more discreet development--leaving them all open-mouthed and flatfooted. They were then in what was to them the awful position of having to support his plan because it was now their plan.
I think he even showed up at hearings wearing the campaign button of his critics, an outfit called Westpride.
The development is there now and it's called Riverside South. There are a bunch of Trump-branded buildings in it.
Nadler wound up looking stupid. Not for the first time.
Molly: Fascinating info about Trump and his way of winning.
(eaglebeak)
mockturtle: He even told the Westpride crowd that they had made him see and do "the right thing."
Caused quite a commotion.
In the Koch-Trump wars, as Koch was leaving office (after Trump had attacked him as "a moron" for several years), a Koch aide called Trump "the most arrogant s.o.b. who ever stepped on the face of the Earth," or words very close to those.
New York was a great place to live in those days!
"I can't figure out why he (Chuck) totally discounts all the great things Trump is doing focusing totally on his dislike of the theatrics of Trump."
This is easy to explain. Chuck spent nearly all of 2016 patiently explaining to all the dimwits here that Trump not only could not win the general election, but would cost the Republicans the House and the Senate in the process. He also promised to write over and over, "I told you so," after the election confirmed his prognostications.
Then Trump suddenly embraced his critics' plan for a smaller, more discreet development--leaving them all open-mouthed and flatfooted.
That story and some other good ones are in Conrad Black's book which is excellent.

I think that story is probably in a lot of books. It made a big splash at the time. The great thing about Trump was there was usually something funny in what he was doing (like his feud with Koch), and always something unexpected.
I just watched a video of Candace Owens cleaning house with Nadler as well as some Asian congressmen whose name I forget. Both of them seemed about Inga Level Stupid.
@Bilwick Owens cleverly arranged for her grandfather to sit behind her, thus outfoxing the Black Dems who so wanted to attack her, but couldn't without dissing an elder who lived through Jim Crow. Plus they see the polls shift towards Trump and know that Blacsexit is a real, growing, albeit small movement. Watching the white Dems on the committee grow ever more uncomfortable was icing on the cake.
Game, set, match: Owens.
The Dems media lapdogs and twitter mob will be all over Owens. Look for a talking point to emerge tonight and tomorrow.
Welp...There it is...only two hours after Owens testified.
