Personally, I'm a real OG Jeffersonian on trade. Classical economics is more or less correct about how to accumulate wealth, but any country with a shred of dignity would subject itself the poverty of autarky before it allows hostile foreign powers to corrupt it. See his embargo against Britain and Madison's little war and how the shitbag traitor federalists freaked out over muh trade being disrupted. That's how I feel towards China.

TAX FREE OVERTIME WHEN?

OH AND ITS ONLY FOR CITIZENS. NOT H1B OR TEMPORARY ILLEGALS
I'm confused, I'm seeing it's not happening but also that it just passed the senate? It's not one of my issues really but I hope he gets it through. Glad about Golden Dome and hope he'll talk more about Artemis soon since that's another of his science babies and it really seems to be struggling.

ETA Oh duh, can't read.. Tips not overtime. Hopefully SS, Tips, and Overtime all go through.

ETA2 and the emotional leftists on DU are really starting to whine again. They really needed a quick economic collapse and are starting to realize it's probably going to be a soft landing at worse now.

I've just been considering something weird. The current most likely Republican candidate after Trump is Vance. Now a lot can happen in 4 years, and he may or may not win, but consider this: The office of the President may completely skip over Gen X.

Good. We need a leader for the 21st century. Gen X had its chance. Get fucked.

Gen X, ignored yet again?
Whatever, not like they care. #disaffected

Gen X really is kind of a lost and forgotten generation. There weren't as many of them as others. The best you can say is they grew up during Reagan and aren't as shitlibby as their parents or millennials in general. The good news is Trump almost has to be the last boomer president no matter what unless we really get screwed in 2028.

Pretty much the only Gen X'er that's made much of a societal impact is Elon, weird to think of that too. And I guess Jeff Bezos.

May happen. It will be like never having a president who served in Vietnam or was born in the 1950s which is more and more of a possibility every year.

Thank God.

Millenials are either coastal theater kids or blackshirt chuds but at least they're not mopey losers.

Now that the boomers are finally getting out of the picture there will be plenty of Gen Xers coming out and trying to throw their weight around (Gavin Newsom comes to mind). But unlike the Boomers who had clear seniority (in every sense) over Gen X, Gen X will need to directly compete against not only Millenials, but also Zoomers who are both more politically active then Gen X.
 
George W was not smeared by the media nearly as much as Trump was, it's not even a comparison.
They straight-up fabricated National Guard memos and ran a 60 minute special on them to try to flip the election to Kerry. This was after four straight years of calling him Hitler and Code Pink bleeding out the wherever all over the Capitol.
