Members Wendy Posted June 30, 2018 Members Share Posted June 30, 2018 Because the last round didn't bankrupt the country enough, Trump wants another round of tax cuts - and another reduction of the corporate tax rate from 21% to 20%. Let's add another trillion in debt. Why not?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Wendy Posted June 30, 2018 Members Share Posted June 30, 2018 This is why elections have consequences and Dems staying home in 2014 got this rolling since, by staying home, the GOP got more seats. There is no way to stop this. The Dems are the minority and there is no filibuster. The ONLY thing that may be possible is, if Dems do ever get a majority, they CAN increase court size. It was expanded and reduced many times over the centuries/decades. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 30, 2018 Members Share Posted June 30, 2018 This is ridiculous. In normal times all of this regressive tax stuff would piss me off, but with what's happening on the border it's just a blip. Still, it's financially reckless and we will pay for it down the road. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 30, 2018 Members Share Posted June 30, 2018 I wonder if the Republicans will play along - they are so craven they probably will. I am glad we are getting the nominee in a week as it's obvious that he is probably going to pick Kavanaugh, or another far right activist white guy. Throwing in a few women and minorities feels more like lip service than ever with someone like Trump. I saw that Ben Shapiro was freaking out about Kavanaugh not being the right kind of conservative until various people of his ilk stepped in to reassure him. I have a feeling this guy is going to just be there for corporations and won't even bother to hide it - he will be so bought and paid for (even more than Gorsuch) we will see a cash register pinned to his robe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted July 1, 2018 Members Share Posted July 1, 2018 There is no question about it. 45 doesn't even bother keeping up the pretense of sharing power. I guess we'll be cleaning up the environmental messes from these corporations run amok for decades to come. Of course, some damage can never be undone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 1, 2018 Members Share Posted July 1, 2018 Eileen Higgings A.K.A. "La Gringa", a non-Hispanic and a Democrat won in a heavily Hispanic (i.e. Cuban-American) Miami-Dade district that had consistently voted Republican in the past. That is indeed...something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted July 1, 2018 Members Share Posted July 1, 2018 ^ Should be sanctions until every child is reunited with their parent. Speaking of which, good lord. The injustice is endless. Making poor parents pay to get their kids back. F*ck everyone involved with this. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/07/trump-separated-children-airfare/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
