At this point, we're down to two options: vote (in the 2020 election), or stage a militaristic coup.  Chances are good, too, that even if we vote him out, we'll still have to pull a page from the Golan-Globus action film playbook, because like hell is he gonna go quietly.

ICYMI:  The last jobs report had to be revised DOWNWARD by about half a million jobs.  So, how are those vaunted Trump tax cuts working out?😏

  • Member

The tax cuts were a bust from the start for working people. Some folks got excited about getting bonuses at work but those were more like severance pay because they were let go shortly after. Businesses and the ultra wealthy definitely did put the tax cuts into the economy like Republicans pretend they did.

They're working out fine for the people they were intended for - big business. 

 

I do think they are one of the main reasons that Republicans lost the House, so at least that was one bright spot.

Nah, that's not what I asked though.  The trolls who used to prowl around these messageboards (who are no doubt, still lurking) are the ones I posed that question to.  I'm smart enough to realize that big business usually fares well while middle, lower and the poor go through hell. No need to state the obvious.

I didn't really remember anyone in the thread but people who hated the cuts, so I misunderstood. My mistake.

Are we supposed to cry because David Koch is dead.   This is more than apropos IMO, considering the horrible policies they have pushed , many which have contributed to climate change including this disaster.

I mean, there's a difference between recognizing human life gone and giving deference where it is not due and has not been earned. 

The Kochs have made it their lives' work to institute policies that made many lives demonstrably worse.  When I made that post upthread, that was pretty much the most I could muster.

Not sure who likes an unstable stock market but if there is, somebody will surely tell me, lol.

Please let her hold on.

Well, not most baby boomers I'm guessing.  I suppose rich active traders could make quite a bit of money repeatedly buying and selling the same stock in this type of market, but I'm hardly a cheerleader for those folks.

DEVELOPING: After a reassuring speech this morning from Fed chairman Powell, stocks rose.  President Trump responded with a flood of tweets, and stocks tanked.

 

Our president is literally killing the economy.
