Ey Ms. Sanchez. That red dress is so insanely inappropriate and tacky for this event.
Typical for someone from the trailer background.
Horrible, with all the $$, she could get the best designers. 😮😢
Was thinking the same thing!!!! Should've ask besos for money for something more appropriate!
@@hortencianavarro885 I guess there is a shortage of material. All her clothes, and gowns have little coverage. Well, we know he is with her for her heart and fine mind. Right!
The laughter after the Bezos party walked through … 🤣
Why even wear a top.......
Which minute marker?
She needs to show them, he's going to pay enough for them. LOL
I caught that, too. It was like that one girl at prom who wore the inappropriate dress.
@@MargaretGarberina She's super tacky. He left his wife for that!
Wait...the Mayor of New York was invited? What about Letitia James?
My god what did Jeff Bezos girl friend think she was going to a trailertrash party. Very poor class
She does come from the trailers and this is the best she can do.
Lauren has her own helicopter company and flies a helicopter. She just needs someone to tell her how to dress for the occasion. She works hard at her company. She's also very educated. 😅
@@stunned.6707 ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa lol
Well, when you start with less than zero taste and utter lack of awareness of your surroundings, what would you expect?
The most useless night out in history for the American people.
We paying for this?
You are lol so obey!!
You bet
Have you no money left after paying for all tRumps grifts?
Pretending to be american.
The most useless time was watching Trump play Golf while close to a Million United States Citizen died from COVID-19 because of his incompetent and mishandling of COVID-19 those were useless days and night people were suffering and he didn't care.
We paid for THIS too..
White House looks like a kindergarten graduation party.
All they needed was Baby Bop and Barney to show up with the Ice cream.
@@ghosty426 My idea was to have some Japanese men doing karate katas as they walked in
What a good host we are to our ally, Japan. Proud of us.
These modern politicans confuse themselves with Hollywood stars. These politicans are supposed to be public servants...not living large on the Taxpayer dole.
Trump dresses his supporters up like clowns cuz he knows they are.
I absolutely loathe the king pin of lefty actors, Bobby De Niro.
I hate them.
These State Dinners have been around since 1874. And other nations host State Dinners as well for visiting heads of state. This is part of diplomacy. Every type of industry has perks as part of the process. Stop being so cynical.
@@AG-fw2vt
I'm sure those State Dinners didn't cost the Taxpayers $5 million dollars back in the 1870s.
I'm sure those politicans back in those days had enough integrity not to steal the White House China or bring bags of cocaine to the party.
This looks like a performance at a nursing home to make the residents feel special
They will pass the bucket around

Another waste of American tax dollars. The fans look ridiculous.
How much was wasted with tRump golfing?
"19 post to his Facebook page that the hobby is subsidized by U.S. taxpayers. "Once again, Trump brags about donating his $400,000 presidential salary. Somehow he forgot to mention that his golf trips have cost taxpayers $141,000,000," says a screenshot of a tweet Reich posted that same day.31 Oct 2020"
国同士の無駄遣いコミニケーションも結局は重要なんだと思う。
The Biden's foot the bill from the President's salary; so not a waste of our tax dollars. Now, the House of Representatives -- that's a waste of tax dollars.
Nothing but evil people caring less that they are spending taxpayers money to eat while a lot of people are barely able to pay their bills
Bunch of RICH people who don't CARE our Country is going down the DRAIN thanks to INCOMPETENT Joe Biden!
Why are we paying them, we have the power
You can bet they use natural gas 😎
Amen to that. Slim pickens to eat at the end of the month for those of us retired.
More can pay their bills now that tRump is not there giving $Trillions in tax cuts to the rich.
Those who are first will be last on the day of judgement!!
Kristi Yamaguchi looks beautiful!
Not one of them would care about anyone else but themselves. Self righteous
What's this going to cost ??? I'll be having a frozen chicken pot pie @ $1.25+tax from the Dollar Tree. Why nobody got a mask on ???
You just come out from under that rock comrade?
You should not have given over all your money for tRumps grifts.
Lol Devil doesn't cover the face
Mask mandates are over
Isn't it nice to know where our tax dollars are going???
How about paying " that much attention to " THE BORDER INVASION ????🤮

Alright a free meal, just smile and wave.😂
I can't even imagine the dollar amount of the bribes circulating at that dinner.
BECAUSE RUMP NEVER HAD DINNERS. LOL. IT'S FOR A PRIME MINISTER. LEARN SOMETHING.😅

There is none left, kushner has all the ones left after tRump sold all the national secrets required.
Yeah, prime Minister from somewhere over there, came to eat our dinner.
This is not an orange Jesus white house.
These people don’t give a crap about the American people only themselves.
Our government became a celebrity event. Oh look the red carpet. Nice but really as we the people here lossing hope. What a slam in the faces of the American people. Just have to wonder how much this actually cost us the American for this dinner party
How much does it cost secret service every time drumph plays at his golf courses huh?
Funny how all the puppet masters always show up 😂😂😂
What a beautiful event! Felt like everyone was going to the prom.❤
How does this benefit the American people?
None of them care. This is a ploy.

Sold out steel company to Japan what next?
The Japanese desperately want to strengthen the Yen. Tonight would be a hilarious night for the BOJ to raise rates.
Actually you're incorrect, they are quite happy with the value of the yen. Income from exports are higher when the value of the yen is low, so record profits for exporters is a common occurrence. Moreover, companies (Japanese and foreign) are returning production to Japan, and this is accelerating provided they can continue "keeping" the value of the yen depressed for "a while". Japan has had negative interest rates since 2016 (meaning, depositors needed to pay interest to the institutions to "park" their cash). At the end of last month, the negative rates were very recently abandoned for 0% interest. The overriding reason for the relatively weak yen is primarily because of the interest rate differential between Japan and the rest of the world. When Japan raises the interest above 0%, the yen will gain strength, especially if the US Fed begins to lower interest rates. Eventually,, the yen will gain strength, which will somewhat export profits.
There were benchmark levels for the yen versus the dollar for the last 65 years (mind you, the US counterpart to the yen is a penny; where for us, we price in terms of a dollar). In the early 60's, the yen was 360 to 1 US dollar. With industrialization, the yen gained strength. As the yen was allowed to "float" in January 1973, it fell to 300 per US dollar. Over time it gained strength to 160, then 130, and in October 2011, it reached its highest point at 72 yen per US dollar. which cause immense problems for exports as it made Japanese products extremely expensive.
I am an American currently living in Japan conducting research. If anything, the exporting companies do not want the yen to gain strength. Japanese companies are "sitting" on a mountain of cash, and would prefer only minor changes in the value of the yen (contrary to competing US companies that want the value of the yen to rise, hence making Japanese products more expensive). And since at least 1960, the Japanese unemployment rate has averaged about 3% (it currently is about 2.5%, and there are more unfilled job positions than unemployed). So, there has not been any real incentive for the Japanese government to want change, including the value of the yen. For the most part, the Japanese have been "fully employed" (economists consider an unemployment rate of 5% to be fully employed) for at least 60 years.
One final thought - the Japanese Yen and the Swiss Franc are the two most desired stable "safe haven currencies". Curiously, the Japanese government essentially wishes this were not the case for the yen.
@@mattsoca1 Actually it's you who is incorrect - and your long-winded explanation of elementary school FX is pretentious and condescending. Everything that you parroted *used* to be true, when accumulating Dollars from exporting to America was worth it. That was true for like 60 years, but it hasn't be true for the last 15. Dollars are no longer an asset. They're a liability. Japan's major imports - raw materials - are all at or near all-time highs in the currency that they're purchased with (which really just means that the value of the Dollar has never been able to purchase less of them).
@@GrantDWilliams82 I suspected you might say that. The condescension is in your "weakly thought out" conjecture, and far more likely, someone calling you out on that. As I state again, I am in Japan conducting research. This has included discussions with economists, business leaders, and a few government officials. What you obviously fail to understand is that when the dollar was even stronger (at least 160 yen to the dollar), Japan still tallied huge foreign exchange surpluses (which also caused political problems for them). Japan does still run surpluses in certain high tech and industrial areas like vehicles, but a significant amount of their industrial base has relocated outside of the country. And this has been worrisome for the government, business leaders, etc. Having so much production abroad, also means less control, as the Coronavirus virus pandemic showed. Data from the last 2 years indicate a fair amount of that "offshoring" is returning home (as well as moving to countries outside of china), and also noticeable new incoming foreign investment.
While Japan's trade surpluses with the US are not as large as in the past, the US still runs deficits. In 2023, the US had a $71 billion deficit with Japan. Something that I have cogently learned while here, is that the Japanese take a long-term view, unlike most others. They recognize the "situation" and firmly believe that changes are necessary, and now in turn, appear very much to be making the needed alterations. Their "policy" on the yen, is just one way of achieving their goals.
You apparently also fail to understand that most of the weakness of the Japanese yen is because of the previous negative interest rate policy of the Japanese Central Bank (JCB), in concert with the relatively high interest rate in the United States and other countries, and the JCB fully recognizes this situation. Who wants to invest in Japanese bonds/savings when they have to pay an interest charge to park cash, receiving zero interest? Now that the JCB has eliminated the negative interest rate, at least one can buy a bond without paying a fee for that "privilege", albeit with zero accrued interest. Furthermore, if the Japanese authorities were truly concerned about the value of their currency, they could have, and can intervene far more than the few times in the past several years. In fact, I sort of remember that the last time was in October 2022. But as a few "experts" informed me, the "reshoring" of the industrial base by Japanese and foreign companies has been proceeding at a pace that is desired and beneficial for Japan. So, they have overriding reasons NOT to defend the yen. The only real risk is that other countries aren't happy that the yen is relatively weak, such as the US with a negative balance of trade. Make no mistake, the Japanese can defend the yen. They hold more than a trillion dollars of US government debt alone. And Japanese companies are estimated to have high amounts of savings abroad from external corporate profits. It would actually make sense for monies held abroad to be repatriated back to Japan given the current value of the yen (though in the case of businesses, I believe this means there are also tax consequences in Japan), but this is not occurring. In time, every financial expert says the yen will rise, especially when the JCB increases the interest rate above the just enacted 0%, and the US Central Bank lowers our interest rate.
However, other major reasons the Japanese are so not inclined to defend the yen is because they have full employment (a situation they have had since the late 60's); in reality, there is a serious labor shortage. And the citizens have a high amount of savings. Using data from 2022, the average Japanese family had over $130,000 in savings, whereas the average American family had $8,000. (The total amount of personal savings in Japan is massive, which is the primary reason American banks have wanted access to that cash hoard for more than 30 years.) Add to that the fact that although consumer prices in Japan have risen a bit recently, they have largely remained the same for the last 20+ years. All of the aforementioned facts (which are very verifiable) were reasons cited to me as to why the Japanese authorities are "NOT DESPERATE" to strengthen the yen, especially if it serves to reinvigorate their industrial base at home.
So my final recommendation.......always obtain the full facts before writing or speaking. That way you won't look ignorant. And especially be careful about who you call out. You never know whether someone else knows even more than you do.
Must be nice on taxpayers dime
