Big question is why? especially when considering the obscure movement of geopolitics in gas prices. Politics is more showmanship, if you heard trump talking about any of his deals be it the border payment or when he said we're going to have an amazing plan that solves everything for healthcare probably like 8 times each time saying next month. Its very little on detail, sort of how they describe non engineer steve jobs The politicians will demand a result, anything they can champion and market and sign their name off and take a victory lap for the casuals who don't look at the details, the why what, the long term ramifications. Hence why they took a little extra time for the first government checks to have his personal signature, bc it works and people will associate those with him. Let alone why the Dodd frank act might've been slap jerk reaction from warren and obama to get a deal done that didn't persecute any of their wall street buddies or incarcerate them or even have them move positions, but it did end up inadvertantly making access to capital harder and social mobility harder for those who already don't have since it incentivzed less risk for banks. The TPP which trump rightfully called out(yep one of bidens MANY misteps of why he wouldn't be trusted as an executive decision maker), but as usual had no detailed solutions himself, sadly in this case jared kushner didn't either. Its a reality show president, hence why Kim Kardashian got the clout to affect criminal justice reform and two kids got to run whatever they want in the presidency to the point that it was a mockery anywhere outside of the cult of trump Notice anyone that doesn't belong? https://www.ft.com/content/c196a22a-9b27-11e9-9c06-a4640c9feebb but don't worry, she was also considered the lead for world bank because she's "great with numbers"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/ivanka-trump-says-she-passed-world-bank-job-n995556 Its definitely the closest we got to King george and a monarchy with a son and daughter having defacto power over an entire country only to see it cheered on by people on a conservative platform that supposed to emphasize decentralization of powers of a federal government, unchecked govt spending(heavily raised thenational debt when he as usual said it was an 'easy fix'), All america first and troops out of foreign affairs unless it was Saudi Arabia Of course doesnt go in on how he optimistically called out hilary's relationship with Saudi bringing about the irony of them funding her women's empowerment program, demanded she rejected it for her foundation only then to go and take equal amount for ivanka's women fund....They are all the same laughing to the bank because they know they won't lose votes. and he's right, its not a democracy its a religious following/cult. Values be damned. Embarrassing to see as he wouldn't even be bothered to let em through in Mar-a-Lago And then the hypocrisy just never stopped with the guy, when obama took a photo in the situation room after bin laden's kill, he said this guy did nothing but sit in a room he shouldn't get credit...then when they did the same with a token image of solemani the next morning, he demanded thanks. When the stock market went up, he claimed its because of him with record prices and sadi they also have to measure from novemeber the day he won bc it was the injection of confidence in him that rose the numbers, when the same thing happend with biden winning he said it was because of his actions. " “Perception is more important than reality. If someone perceives something to be true, it is more important than if it is in fact true. This doesn't mean you should be duplicitous or deceitful, but don't go out of your way to correct a false assumption if it plays to your advantage.” ― Ivanka Trump, The Trump Card: Playing to Win in Work and Life
Stupid. Plain stupid. Bans are a losing proposition for Democrats and midterms. Biden needs to reel in the ban rhetoric.
The bills I have to pay say that and I find it weird that you're questioning my expenses But kept on goading me on to respond to you. Back to sports.
No Biden needs to keep up his socialis agenda. Question is , is the voting going to be showing up to the polls to vote, or are we going to have a repeat of the last election?
Alot of this post is true, What you have to ask yourself is On both sides of the isle is whether you believe in capitalism vs socialism. The Bush/Clinton clan that still controls govt are one offs of each other. They're all globalists who also put their interests first and foremost. Trump does the same, the question is what kind of govt do you want to live under. Give me American capitalism first and always.
I thought Biden/Clinton were bought and sold by the capitalist wall st donors? You trying to have it both ways.... Dems are both establishment wall st donors and socialists communists. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Globalist, they can be Americans these are both Dems mostly and some GOP. They're elitists who dont have America's middle class best interests at heart. Simply put, I would rather take a chance on a guy who may or may not have his families best intersts at heart. (Trump) vs the obvious globalist Bush clan or even worse the socialist Clinton's.
Whay about the Jews? I find it fascinating how American some Jews look at things and vote, vs Jews that are having missiles reigned down on them. Older Jews seem to still live by the never forget motto. While some younger Jews seem to have not only forgotten but through guys like Schumer seem to be embracing the Green New deal/Iran deal mantra. Just remember Iran's goal is to remove Jews from the face of the earth. Really not much has changed in the last thousands of years except the Jews views.
Uh huh...... But Wall St donates to socialists.....? How many globalist properties and trademarks does the Trump family own? Why does Turkey, where Trump owns property, have so much sway over Trump's decision making?
Who is Alex Jones? I'm currently burying my head in the sand until just before the mid terms. Biden/Harriss are going to do what they're going to do. Whether I think the last election was legit or not. I've come to accept this and in a way I'm looking forward to the pain and suffering that will come from the decision of the SC and the last election. It really wont affect my life at all. But I feel sorry for younger college graduates. But hey, they voted for this so let it reign down on them.
Wall St gambles on both sides. Smart Care to show proof of the last paragragh? Trump owns properties all over the world. Is he involved secretly with govs all over the world? The Russian crap was proven to be a hoax.
Don't. "Harris to the Class of 2021: 'You have the strength to get through anything'": https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/23/politics/kamala-harris-2021-graduation-cnntv/index.html
The indoctrination runs deep. Truth is I'm hoping the the next POTUS puts changing the education system in America first on his agenda. Above the economy/world events/border etc... Getting back to the three R's. That would be a great legacy to have.
I'd say we could do better than both. THey've both pandered towards their donors. I'd argue that trump himself is not a capitalist, heck his actions are not america first, but trump first. He seems to throw anyone under the bus that doesn't have 'loyalty', as mob bosses or dictators call it, he literally abused our checks and balances and inspectors that are always meant to keep the powers at bay be it a socialist, be it someone pragmatic to the donors that got them there as most politicians and that sets the precedent to make it easier in the future for all, because he stood for nothign but himself. I was hopeful when they got a disruptor, someone like him, who was outside the box. But slowly seeing how he pandered to the usual, showed so much weakness with saudi, was correct about manufacturing and the chinese issues but in true form provided almost aimless no detail in his plan if he ever had one. Let alone his own business uses heavy seasonal immigrant employees, most of his own companies were manufactured in china. This guy hadn't figured out to do anything but run a hustle and use "baron Trump" to get good free media of which he did fantastically and lets not forget, for or against, media were the major winners of the last 4 years. I'm all for a businessman who makes government more efficient. We chose a guy who has a family business that doesn't operate in a large scale like a large company or government would. Its unaccountable, he started with half a billion almost and almost went bankrupt on 14 of his dcisions, amerca can't afford to be one since he protects himself. The amount of government pay, subisdies he lobbies for shows he isn't some principled capitalist, heck even his tax cuts made it so you can write off entire private jets. These guys are grifters like the corporatist who clinton bows down to which socialize the cost and privatize the profits. Likewise, one thing in biden's career shows that he stood for nothing and will pander to his donors be it private prisons, the tax havens he helped create in delaware, the drug lobby, war lobby, you name it. Trump wasn't that much better, he just replaced a swamp with a new set of em all taken their own incentices. Betsy devos for education, really? Scott pruit coming in and right away taking his change. Have you seen Jared Kushner's background, ? might want to take a look at 666 his manhattan investment that he bought in at the peak, before the crash and had struggled to make payments until Qatar bailed him out...Or how about how hard it is to get chinese trademarks and ivanka recieving hers coincidentally while the chinese delegate were in Mar-a-Lago? How about trump not paying his bank 10s of millions saying the market crash was their fault as a big bank, then preceding to get more loans from just this one particular bank when others wouldn't touch him..this was around when he was doing pizza hut commercials and then the apprentice rebranded him and people ate it up. I even was optimistic about him handling saudi, hes on record calling them out, but as usual he just says contradicting things with no teeth. I'd love to have an actual American leader that doesn't pander to the Saudi lobby, that jut like bush, Obama, and trump doesn't make it a hinderance for americans to find out more detail and liability of the saudi 9/11 commission rather than backing a foreign country...but nah, didn't get that from trump either. Got the usual : "“For the record, I have no financial interests in Saudi Arabia (or Russia, for that matter),” Trump said. “Any suggestion that I have is just more FAKE NEWS (of which there is plenty)!”- Thats his tweet "Trump & Saudi Business: •1991: Sold yacht to Saudi Prince •2001: Sold 45th floor of Trump World Tower to Saudis •Jun 2015: I love the Saudis...many in Trump Tower •Aug 2015: "They buy apartments from me...Spend $40M-$50M" •2017: Saudi lobbyists spent $270K at Trump DC hotel" So basically you're simplification of him is to suggest he is a capitalist, believes in competition, and let the market play. But he put his thumb on almost every private business that he could, took credit for it. He is a blatant crony capitalist at its finest and will lie to anyone who still buys his snake oil. Biden, I'm not sure how much better he is. But he doesn't have the arrogance and sociopathic disregard to burn down checks and balances which should worry anyone that respects american constitution and system that we strived for getting away from King George, no matter how benevolent. Likewise sadly only some will point to hunter, who rightfully so shouldn't be able to hinge his private income on government contacts and information, but they make it so tribal as you said that its eithertrump vs biden not that they all have a history of running away with our money and lying to our faces, the tribalism works great for the news polarization, for the politicians retaining their power, but just diviides and conquers the american people from being objective as if trump was some advocvate for proper capitalism and market forces when his policy or fiscal responsiblity was anything but that. Likewise biden, a guy whose supported the deadly adn costly drug wars, jailing, iraq war and for some reason got even less articulate and is seen as some reasonable person. He has kicked out white house staff for a baromoter on using cannabis that not only obama and kamala wouldn't pass, let alone the same compassion he asks for his son, doesn't extend to others. Just hired back hawk Neera Tanden who now shares the distinct privelege of along with Corey L of Trump administration cabinet members who've physically assaulted journalist. The tribalism is an attack on our objectivity to hold government accountable.
"Globalist" is abject capitalism. You think actors in a free market are going to restrain themselves from expanding markets to for growth? That's capitalism. Globalism is the direct consequence of capitalism. Corporations want more markets. Not only that, capitalism creates a desire to maximize profit margins to its maximum which means finding the cheapest labor one can find on the planet that satisfies their needs.
