    “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing (promising that tax cuts will be the answer) over and over again, but expecting different results”. including Traitor Trump, the last 4 Republican POTUS had pushed for tax cut as being the miracle worker

    • his Republican predecessor W's tax cut, along w a needles war, cratered the US economy
    • W's Republican predecessor GHWB, promised no new tax; but
      • after realizing how HUMONGOUS the deficit was, had the good sense to raised tax
    • GHWB's Republican predecessor Ronald Reagan promised and effected a tax cut, ; but
      • after realizing how HUMONGOUS the deficit was, had the good sense to raised tax

    If he gets re-elected in 2020, he will eventually turn against the Republicans in the House and Senate.

    Nope. By then the house and senate will be filled with mini-Trumps that Russia helped get in there. I guarantee you if he gets "re-elected" in 2020, there won't be another election after that.

    With an ultra conservative supreme court, he'll be able to change voter laws to tips the balance heavily for Republicans, and with Putin's help manipulate the results in other ways. Notice also he is devising ways to punish blue states - his plan is to bring pain and force them into submission.

    He cares not for the economy.

    You know what he was talking to Putin about for 2 hours? Putin was teaching him how to take dictatorial control of the US. Trump is intentionally creating Chaos with trade wars and our allies. Creating false emergencies like illegal immigration. He needs a crisis of huge magnitude. He needs Russia to completely get Americans to lose faith in the voting system - so he can take it over. He needs riots in cities so he can declare martial law. He needs absolutely loyalty from the justice department so he can turn it against his enemies and crush them. He needs the FBI to be his gestapo to arrest anyone who speaks ill will of him.

    Then he can take control and have sham elections to elect him and his "party" to victory.

    The "I'm not defending Donald Trump, I didn't vote for him" support wing of the D&D hasn't made it in this thread yet? weird.

    it's socialism for the 1%, onepercentialism. It never trickles down.
    Is it too much to ask for a middle ground.

    Where are the usual defenders of supply side and trickle down? Now that close to 40 years of real life debunk that tax cuts for the wealthy aka trickle down (remember the failed job creators meme that lasted a year or two?)

    All the Repubs have left is white identity politics and abortion/primitive religion..

    I, for one, am shocked -- SHOCKED -- they were overstating the economic growth at the time. Their estimates sounded so reasonable!

    Seriously? There's not even one post of "show ignored content" so I know the water-carriers are just avoiding this thread like the plague.

    But he plays golf! Now worse
    But the deficit! Now worse than ever.
    But he's divisive! Now worse than ever.
    But he lies! Now worse than ever.
    But he can't deal with criticism! Now hahahahahahaha!

    Even if those worst case estimates hold true, they will still be lower deficits than Obama gifted us, and at least I'm able to keep more of my hard earned money thanks to Trump. If y'all we're really concerned about deficits you'd be supporting getting rid of the disastrous Obamacare and its insurance subsidies.

    Obamacare reduced the deficit and overall under Obama the deficit decreased nearly a trillion dollars. You are getting bad intel from your Russian sponsored sites again.
