Did you feel the same way about Biden's student loan forgiveness? His vax mandates?

There's no such thing as an even playing surface.

quote:Indeed. They paid the bill. That's the damage amount.
a) they suffered the damage
And
b) the extent of that damage.
This is not hard.
quote:None of this matters. Let's say... you rent a house. If, for example, the income tax gets cut during the year... is your landlord due a refund because the rent could have been higher? Of course not. You paid the tax, you get the refund when you file your return.
Some businesses didnt pay full tariffs (exporter/foreign manufacturers ate some or all of it). Some businesses passed on some or all of the tariff to their customers.

quote:One of SEAL Team 47 members said it would be good for the economy. Which prompts the question 'what did it do for the economy when they got collected?" I think the response was something about voting for Kamala.
Trump should embrace this as a backdoor stimulus right before midterms.
re: Dems are Broke - GOP has $95 Million

quote:Gotta be careful thinking this is the demise of Democrats.
Cliffs: DNC is broke. Had to take out a loan for the VA Governor's race. No Midterm Convention (which is normal - conventions aren't usually held in midterm years). But, it's telling that they have no money while GOP has close to $100 million. SIAP. ChatGPT told me Dems have $14 million with $17 million in debt.
Flashback to 2010, the GOP was broke and in debt too. LINK
quote:
The additional debt numbers only add to earlier reports that the RNC was not fully disclosing its unmet financial obligations. In July, ABC News and others reported that the RNC had failed to report more than $7 million in debt to the FEC in what some alleged was an attempt to make the party appear to be in better shape than it was. The Washington Times revealed a memo in which the party's treasurer, Randy Pullen accused RNC Chairman Michael Steele and his chief of staff of trying to hide the ugly numbers.
A lot of democrats were predictng decades of Democrat dominance at that time, too,
only to lose teh WH in six years later to.... DJT (thankfully)

Fortunately, the majority of American voters have the ability to see through the Marxist bullshite.
As evidenced by Trump's victory.

On "The Daily Show" Monday night, the liberal comic told self-described democratic socialist Bernie Sanders that Trump is carrying out the Vermont senator's "revolution."
"You could almost make a case that the true inheritor of the Sanders revolution is Trump," Stewart said.
"He is the most socialist president of my lifetime."
"Taking a percentage of companies to do business? That's a Bernie Sanders idea. Doing TrumpRx where the government is involved in selling pharmaceuticals? That's a Bernie Sanders idea."
Then Stewart doubled down.
"Is it frustrating that the thing that you fought for your whole career, Democrats are the ones who run away from scared and Trump has embraced some of it?" he asked.
