I rode past the ghetto. It was still there. Trump lied.

    I was gonna say, 'Well bless your heart", but I asked a rhetorical question instead.

    1. He hasn't been officially elected yet, not until Dec 19.

    2. He hasn't taken office yet, not until Jan 20.

    3. Don't be silly. I don't need to elaborate on this, you know what I'm talking about.

    So Trump was going to build a fence around the ghettos and have a locked gate? Good thing he changed his mind. Access to the ghettos is essential. How else would the ambulances the through?

    Dude isn't even president. Now I get to turn the Liberals chant against them. Remember this one: Give him time, he inherited Obama's mess.

    LMFAO. After all those years of that excuse for Obama, I can finally turn it on the Libs. Don't worry though, my leeway is a lot shorter: By the mid-terms, at least it's all on Trump.

    Trump has now proposed raising taxes on the rich? Please post evidence. His campaign promise was to lower them. Perhaps you weren't actually paying attention

    Trump has proposed to redo the tax code, make it simple, transparent, and progressive, eliminate deductions, loopholes, ambiguities.... Sooner or later it needs to be done, the existing five hundred thousand page mess is absurd, and the progressive nature of Trump's proposal guarantees that the rich will pay significantly higher percentage on already significantly higher incomes.

    Obviously you are making this up since you can't provide any actual evidence. Nice try though. Here is a little actual reading for you. And if you don't like thst one you can look at any, repeat any actual analysis to find out who will benefit from Trump tax proposals.

    Maybe you should wait till he actually takes office before you start listing his failures?

    The liberals/Democrats are actually doing their usual trick of trying to make 'others' defend themselves. Ask them what their opinion is on a subject in response, and most will go silent.

    I believe they are given a set of rules to live by when they receive their award of indoctrination that shows this as Rule #3. #1 is You are smarter than anyone else, and Rule #2 is you are allowed to whine when you don't get your way.

    Disclaimer: This post is beyond my normal acceptance of people who have a different PoV than I do, but I've just about had it up to HERE with this ****.

    Look at it from the democrats perspective; after all the years of criticism, now the shoe is on the other foot and they can now criticize Trump for every single mis-step made or perceived. :) It's going to be a fun filled four years! :)

    We can now have different arguments. Though per say, it's not that I'm the biggest fan of Trump. I'm a Nationalist, but I'm far more secular than he is. I see myself as socially liberal, but fiscally conservative.

    And by that, I mean that I agree with the basic tenant that if it doesn't hurt myself or others then there's no logical reason to oppose it.(IE: I support marujiana decriminalization which just won in California and I think Nevada. More baby steps :)). On the other hand, I think for every dollar we spend, we should have a dollar invested in the middle class.

    I think we should be able to work in a fiscally prudent way to maximize the utility of our costs and therefore to lower the Debt-GDP ratio down to an acceptable size. Our most prosperous years, the percentage was 70%. Which means we need either a 30% increase in GDP, or a 30% cut in the debt.
    My policy is to try and get a 30% increase in GDP which I believe is possible. If we achieve that, the economy will be rocking.

    The new privileged class.

    The one who was supposed to be the savior of those in the inner cities did nothing for them.

    Oh a link to an establishment institution on special interests payroll, no less, because after all that nonsense and garbage they've been spewing for years, all the lies and failed predictions we've heard from them during this election cycle some people are still not bright enough to tune them and their lies out. Duh

    Here's Trump's real plan
    https://www.donaldjtrump.com/policies/tax-plan

    See for yourself. Simple, progressive, taxing the rich higher percentage on already significantly higher incomes, just like I said. Where is your liberal tax reform proposal to resolve the existing 500,000 page mess of a tax code btw?

    I already hate the term "nationalist" because it's already being equated with "white nationalists" which is the equivalent of "white supremacists". I really don't know how the term "nationalist" differs from either party in terms of policy. Also, I don't even believe in the term xenophobic but it gives credence to that word in the minds of the progressives.

    COngress chose to not let him do that. The president needs Congressional approval to close military bases and prisons and Republicans wanted G-Bay open.

    Then why did he promise to close it? Why make a promise you can't keep?

    Sounds stupid as hell if you ask me
