    Ok, but that really isn’t what I asked.

    I don’t care if you don’t vote for him. I’m just asking why you think he is unreasonable and doesn’t vote in the best interests of the country, at least as he sees it?

    The liberal agenda is all about taking wealth and redistributing it.
    It will never be in my children’s interest to see their inheritance squandered for the latest govt failed program.

    Your children will the paying for the $1.9 trillion Trump tax cuts that went to corporations and top tax brackets.

    Maybe you are fortunate enough that some of that giveaway money and corporate welfare went to you. If so, make sure to thank them for paying for your tax cut!

    What do those corporations then do with their now reasonable tax breaks?

    We saw. Stock buy backs.

    Works out well for top earners and stock holders. Not so much for the low income rubes Trump conned into believing he was looking out for them.

    Interesting. So none of that savings was invested back into the said companies? How then was the economy under Trump, pre Covid, considered one of our country's best historically, with Blacks and women earning higher wages than ever before?

    None? Sure, some. It'll just all need to be paid off later. Borrow and let someone else pay the bill. And be sure to take credit. That's the Trump way.

    It's laughable to think that the strong and improving economy in 2017 needed deficit-fueled, inflationary fiscal stimulus. But we knew that then.

    About the same as it is now under Biden. Obviously. As anyone who ever glances at economic statistics would know, and not need to ask.

    The Trump way (?), ignoring eight years of recession while also bailing out special interest companies like Solyndra only to blame Trump for four years of inflation ... wow! Rock on dude.

    What would I call what? 8 years of GDP, employment, and capital market growth? You clearly don't speak economics. There has been 1 recession since June 2009. It lasted 2 months in 2020.

    A little bit sensitive to anything critical of Trump are you? So much so that you're digging pretty deep for the irrelevant Solyndra reference, lol.

    Look, Trump's economic performance is patently obvious, and was at the time; borrow and spend. It's called fiscal stimulus, and it's both inflationary and NOT what the pretty strong, improving economy needed in 2017.

    If you were paying attention, you'd also be aware that Trump was calling for interest rate cuts the entirety of his term. Another INFLATIONARY measure, to be dealt with later by someone else, had he gotten his way.

    And yes, that's the Trump way - borrow, then scurry away before the bills come due. Why do you think he's had so many bankruptcies? Why do you think he bankrupted freaking CASINOS? Why do you think he just got slapped with a nearly $400 million fine for defrauding lenders? Because he just wanted to borrow and pocket the wins while letting someone ELSE pay for the losers.


    Sorry to burst your bubble about the Great Orange Guy. But he's an economic fraud. Every economically literate person in the world has known that for decades.
