I’m retired and living on the cheap and I pay a few thousand in taxes. I don’t like it but I know how much the govt helps our lives. Trumpers fell like cheating is a sign of being smart. Cheating is the only way trump ever turned a profit on his businesses.

Our salvation may lie with the IRS going after all these political nonprofits and political churches. Tax these rats back into their dens.

It’s not left, right. It is top, bottom. There are democrats that will have something to gain and will work to get it. Billions are at stake. So a big profit now with no thought about what it’s going cost the rest of us. So when these rich democrats speak out about Biden to dropping out, what’s their motive?

What is their motive? I think that they are speaking though their pocketbooks.
Joe has been one of the most productive Presidents in our nations history. He’s been playing this game for decades, knows how the system works and did this with an extremely divided congress.
Again what is their motive??

They know their $3.5 trillion Trump tax cut is going to expire and there is no way that they get it continued if Biden is president.

(Just in case there's any question, this is not any kind of criticism of the OP. It's just an expansion of the OP's theme.)

Oh, also, I just noticed the low post count--welcome to DU!
