Trickle-down economics was the dumbest economic policy ever proposed by a president.

The theory that people invest more of their money into the economy instead putting it all in tax shelters when the top marginal rate is sane ended up being completely true.

Prior to the Reagan tax reform, you were better off with perks instead of salary, and starting a business was a suckers game with how bad taxes raped you if you had the misfortune to do halfway decently.

Honestly, I want Trump to win for the betterment of the country I love, but that one gimmick poster than gets a pass because his "elder conman bible humping" jokes makes the owner of this website laugh.. I want to see him sperg out and I want to see him doxed, and shamed to the point of killing himself. A couple of the other retards in that thread would be funny to see get threads woudl work too i guess.

Zach Hadel, the artist known as Psychicpebbles and co-creator of Smiling Friends (probably the most popular adult animated show this year), posted this a few hours ago. It's pretty much a Trump endorsement with how generously he's drawn, there's already shitlibs seething about it in the quote tweets.

Don’t answer that.

If you read a letter, she has a point. The LAT has been raging against Trump for 8 years, smearing and defaming him every step along the way. Would’ve been more honest to just come out and endorse Kamala, instead of putting on this fake veneer of neutrality.

They‘re clearly not doing it out of neutrality since they’ve endorsed candidates before. It’s at best a vote of no confidence, at worst an implicit endorsement of Trump.

Unironically the left's gestapo tactics against the right did long term damage to them in a way no one expected.

The right has had to purge their idiots. People who can't play the optics game, the ones that are "stupid-right," they were all thrown off of social media for offending the left. That means the only ones left are the ones who "clean up nicely" and can at least speak properly.

The left didn't have to do that. So the "kill whitey," "yes we ARE coming for your children 🌈," "yes we DO want to destroy the west hehe he" types, they never learned to shut the fuck up. And the left never learned to purge or shun them -- in fact, they learned the opposite, to flinch when some gorilla screams "racist" at you, or else. Meanwhile, Libs of TikTok is there, documenting all of this shit.

The result is a right wing that knows how to speak "normie" and even can speak a passable "leftist" and a left wing that doesn't even have a functioning theory of mind about what normies think, yet along righties, and has no fucking chance of being able to communicate with them. They literally think the only reason you could ever disagree with them, even for a second, is if you're some form of nazihitlerfascist.

This is serious long term damage to the left in a way they can't even understand yet. The left can't even communicate with the middle or right anymore, and thinks the problem is everyone else. Forget Obama and Clinton destroying the party apparatus, this is "can't even begin to rebuild" level damage.

For examples of this, go hop on imgur or reddit or dailykos or resetera or something, and try to speak to them from anything other than a true believer leftist POV. They'll rip you a new asshole, call you everything but a human, and then drive you off the site if they can.

ANITA FUCKING HILL WAS ON THE ZOOM?


We need to know what CODEPINK is doing. NOW.

Reason: shitlib AWFL women are behind this and they already know they need to bring out a litany of accusers.
Click to expand...

Still need an eye on CODEPINK. This 1993 accuser came from Steve Jobs's widow
(left), who was part of the Epstein network, and she owns The Atlantic. They have been burning their reputation for being a premiere long-form liberal outlet by peddling this trash.

As soon as Jobs was being mentioned over the "fucking Mexicans" story, it's no surprise that story runs in her outlet while they are frantically trying to land the MeToo story in another outlet.

Whenever there is MeToo going on in Washington, CODEPINK's little army of retarded AWFL condo-fee women are there too. And they have a scratch street protesting operation to go with it. They're not internet shitposters; they do professional ratfucking.

To explain, after the first Trump assassination attempt broke his brain, Destiny turned to January 6th as his #1 pet issue, so much so that (from what I've heard) he recently took a couple of weeks off from streaming during prime election coverage to instead work on a January 6th video as his magnum opus.

Bullshit. Supply-Side wasn't a bad idea. The Laffer curve is one of the most non-voodoo economics theories ever.


Even fucking wikipedia has a hard time totally bashing it. The problem is using it without spending controls.

Trickle-down economics isn't even a real idea. It's a term coined by the left as an attack against capitalism. There have been numerous more thorough explanations as to why it isn't a real thing, but the following example illustrates the idea quite well:

Suppose you wanted to start a new business. With either your own money or a loan you pay workers to construct a building. You purchase equipment for your business from other companies who manufacture it. You hire laborers to operate the machinery to produce the goods your business will sell. Suppose that your business fails. Who is out the money? The workers who constructed the building were paid, as were the companies you purchased equipment from, and the laborers who operated it. The only person who is out money is you. Wealth does not trickle down, but rather flows upwards in the form of profits generated from a successful investment in some enterprise.

Like most things dreamt up by the left, it's backwards from reality.

Reagan wouldn't recognize America itself today. The guy who won California twice, briefly got the Moral Majority into power, and foolishly thought he got a deal stemming illegal immigration, would be utterly appalled at what the culture and the country was like 36 years after he left office.

He wouldn't recognize the GOP before Trump either. Last he left them before Alzheimers took him, they were still winning elections, stomping on Democrats in the press, and putting out policy ideas that actually made it into law.

Reagan wouldn't like Trump, but if he woke up and saw the GOP in 2016, he'd start trying to overhaul them the same way he started trying in 1964.

It's been 4 years since January 6th. What do you think it would take to get Democrats to shut the fuck up about January 6th?

Great idea, Mitch. Bring up a president from 40 years ago that half of the electorate has no memory of. Way to stay relevant, homes.

It's Trump's time now Mitch. The age of Reagan ended when Trump announced his campaign in 2015.
