That's about all we can do until we get more official support to get rid of this fucking lunatic.

Deconstructing America, one hack at a time. What, exactly, does "America First" actually mean to these gargoyles?

Reagan, big tax cuts and increased defense spending. He finally had to increase taxes before his 8 years.

Clinton raised taxes and the republican people went nuts. Also mad about Hillary's health care plan. Democrats lose the house to Loose Newt Gingrich in 2 years.

GW Bush gets elected and despite a good Clinton economy, and he says the economy is in recession. He lies about the facts of his plan and half of the middle income people do not get a tax cut but the rich do and naturally the estate tax cut the rich.
Then comes two wars and no tax increase plus a new medicare prescription drug plan for seniors which helps the drug companies.

Obama had to clean it up and did get what healthcare plan he could. He raised taxes and stopped as much money spent on two wars.

Now we start the cycle all over again with tax cuts, mammoth military spending, everything will be blamed on entitlements.
