That works well for flipping control IF and that is my concern, IF we hold legal and fair elections in the mid-term.

No boat, back in the suds.

I’m sure it was sacastic, but no sh*t, while we have a nice nest egg, not everyone does and if those checks start to get delayed; the price of food will be the least of peoples worries.

Winning isn’t handing over the government and the control of the money to billionaires who could give a rats arse about middle america.

I stand by what I said. Seems to me that the people that voted for this clown show had the delusional fantasy that they were voting to hurt those less fortunate than themselves. Guess what?? Trumpers are about to enter the “Find out” stage of “**** around and find out”.

I've heard it elsewhere, but to paraphrase...

thinking a guy who s*its in a gold toilet has the working mans best interest at heart is delusional.

I am surprised at you. Never knew you to be vindictive. Leave us old guys alone.

Im not vindictive at all. But when I see what Trump campaigned on which was a lot of hate and bigotry, I just cant believe some one could vote for actively hurting a group if people who are either worse off or living a lifestyle you dont agree with.
The only way people who supported this con man/ fraudster/ grifter can be convinced that it was all a con is if his policies actually effect them. Its called learning by failure.
Perhaps the analogy is that if I saw a kid stick a fork in a socket and get shocked once, and I see him about to do it again, perhaps the best thing to do is sit back and watch him get shocked again. Right now the people who voted for this clown have stuck the fork in for the second time and are just feeling the shock…


And for the record, what i just said is not directly pointed at you, Paul.

They need that tax cut man. If i remember correctly, a measly 2% tax increase on the 1% could fund social security for the next 75 years. (Again i might be wrong here).

Massive tax cuts for the 1%, empower a brutal dictator, alienate our allies, put large tariffs on friends and foes alike, fire or force out the key heads of departments the country relies on, ignore the impact on our economy to spread chaos and fear, appoint the most unqualified people to look after our security, our health and all Americans and unless you are totally brainwashed like Marsh appears to be; this is really a troubling time for this country. I’m not a religious person, but if that’s you thing, grab your beads or bible and say a few prays.

The federal RIFs are only a small portion of what’s outlined in one of his February XO. I’m concerned that if Congress doesn’t fund the government, FFOTUS will say good that’s the size I want.

I don’t think it would be more effective if Putin and Kim Jong Un had laid out a plan to destroy America, I left Xi out because I think he’s got something to lose with FFOTUS’ policies.
