Its clear this is the goal of the Republican party. We know its a goal of Paul Ryan. Privatize.
The champions of ignorance (Trump voters) think they are winning. No surprise, these idiots can't figure out when someone says, "I could shoot somebody on 5th Ave and my voters would't care," that it's not a compliment. Thats someone saying you're an idiot and I own you.
Do you hear that giant cracking sound?
That is the entire foundation of our country breaking apart. The day Trump was elected I began to prepare for a major disaster. I knew this would turn out to be one of the biggest blunders in our history.
As we all watch this freak show Trump has attacked everything that makes America what it is. Here are a few examples of what he has done in his first year.
He has attacked our immigration policies. That will hurt us.
He has attacked trade policies. That will hurt us. Why would other countries want to make new trade deals with Trump?
He has attacked countries around the world, including our allies. This will hurt our foreign policies.
He has attacked and weakened our government institutions, The justice Dept, FBI, CIA, State Dept, etc.
He has attacked and weakened our government agencies , EPA, CDC,(yikes),etc.
He has attacked government employees.
He has attacked our rule of law.
He is deregulating everything. This will lead to corruption.
He has raised the national debt, which will lead him to cut more money from the government programs we all rely on.
He has put crooked people in place to lead our government agencies.
These are just a few examples of what is happening while we watch this complete fraud of a president.
I find it very hard to believe this will not lead to a horrible ending.
People, we have a math problem.
I am not an expert on economics but I do know how to add and subtract.
I know Trickle Down Economics does not work long term. They just cut taxes a lot. This will add to the national debt. One of the tools we use to fight off an economic downturn is tax cuts. If we have a downturn how can they cut taxes? What will they do instead? Decrease spending on government programs we depend on? Attack SS, medicare, medicaid?
When you subtract regulations, you add corruption.
When you add to the wealth divide, you subtract from the working people.
Tick, Tick, Tick.
The movie 13 Minutes; A warning from history.
This is the story of Johann Georg Elser, A german carpenter who tried to kill Hitler in 1939. Hitler left early from a yearly speech he gave at a beer hall. The bomb went off 13 minutes later.
Elser watched the German people slowly descend into madness. He knew war would destroy them so he decided to take action. After he was captured he was tortured. They believed he had help. He did not. During one scene he asked a question of the people torturing him.
Can't you see what is happening? Thats what we should all be asking the Trump voters.
Sometimes I feel like the American people are descending into madness just like the German people did. Many of the German people knew something wrong. Instead of doing something about it, they either ignored it or they joined up with the madness.
Fair question; When Trump goes down will he take all of us down with him.
We all know Trump is extremely vengeful. He believes he is never wrong. He always blames someone for his failures. He has some things in common with Hitler. Hitler turned on his people. He blamed them. He took them down with him. I am not saying Trump is Hitler, I am saying he is fucking nuts in some of the same ways Hitler was.
Will Trump start a war trying to protect himself, power grab when he knows he is about to be removed from office? How far will Trump go to protect himself?
Republicans believe people are bias because they believe Trump is a threat?
Now thats fucking warped. One day reality is going to catch up to the republicans, including their voters. Reality is a bitch.
Keep on digging Trump, you're almost at the six foot mark.
Trump should start wearing one of his stupid looking hats that says, "I'm Guilty".
There is a reason Trump spent his whole life learning to be a showman, a liar. To cover up the fact he is one dumb mother fucker.
Trump brought his children and people like Hope Hicks to run the country. He filled positions with completely unqualified loyalists. These are arrogant stupid people. They don't stand a chance against Mueller. Many of them will go prison.
Trump is guilty as hell. He keeps on giving Mueller more evidence every time he opens his mouth. Trump is guilty of obstruction of justice, conspiracy and Mueller will prove it. Mueller will prove Trump is subject to blackmail. There will be no doubt. We will have to wait and see what Mueller has when it comes to money laundering.
If Trump tries to fire Mueller that will be more evidence of obstruction. That will be the end of his presidency.
Trump is going down and many of the very stupid people that work for him will go to prison. Trump has made many powerful enemies. They will take him down. Does anyone actually believe the american people will let Trump turn America into a Trump dictatorship? Not going to happen.
Remember, there are a lot more patriots in this country then braindead Trump supporters. The patriots will win. Its just a matter of time.
When that day comes I am going to have a party. I will celebrate that day.
I will not watch the State of the Union speech. They should call it the, Trump
telling everyone how great he is speech. Disgusting.
We need laws that protect the american people from themselves.
The american people have forgotten all the lessons learned after the Great Depression. The American people learned nothing after the 2008 collapse. We went right back to trickle down economics. Perhaps the worst version of trickle down since the 1920s.
Whats completely crazy about trickle down economics is, it is impossible for it to work long term. It relies on paying for itself by strong economic growth. Sooner or later there is always a downturn and the debt goes through the roof. Also, because of deregulation corruption takes hold and this leads to economic destruction. It reminds me of subprime mortgages. You're OK for the first 5 years, after that you can't afford it and you go bankrupt.
In the next presidential election I will be looking for a candidate who runs on fixing these issues first.
New campaign finance laws. We have to get the big money out of our elections. The rich now control our country. The American people keep on voting for rich people ignoring the fact it is greed that is ruining their lives.
Get rid of citizens united. One of the worst decisions ever by the supreme court. It is destroying our democracy.
An individual tax on billionaires. One person should not be allowed to gather so much wealth that they become a threat to our democracy. Tax the fucking shit out of them.
Pass a law that requires all presidential candidates to show 10 years of tax returns. That will stop rich assholes like Trump from running for office. For some bizarre reason the American people like voting for rich people to solve their problems.
New gerrymandering laws. Gerrymandering fucks up our democracy. It opens the door for extremists to get elected, especially in the house.
In my opinion, The above issues must be taken care of first before we can move on and fix the many problems we have in our country.
