Jonathan Chait: “House Republicans worked through the night to advance a massive piece of legislation that might, if enacted, carry out the largest upward transfer of wealth in American history.”
“That is not a side effect of the legislation, but its central purpose. The ‘big, beautiful bill’ would pair huge cuts to food assistance and health insurance for low-income Americans with even larger tax cuts for affluent ones.”
Politicalwire….
Straight out of the Republican playbook .
Gee what happened to the so-called “ populism?”
However I do enjoy Trumps total contempt for these MAGA idiots.Hes sticking it to them as they figuratively yell” Stick it to me Don I like it!”
Sad on so many levels.
I ALWAYS SAID he was one way….
As for the ‘Party’
I stand by MY. View that Donald is NOT. A true Republican
Never was or will be
The party is just the vessel…
He confirms my view every week.,,
Who the Hell are the likes of you,someone who has never been a Republican , to declare who is or is not a “ true Republican?”
Trump has been the Republican nominee for President three straight times.
He enjoys overwhelming support among those who identify as Republicans as polls consistently show.
His movement ,what we call MAGA,is,by far the largest grouping in the Republican Party and they are all in with Trump.
Your comment may at least have been an arguable point ten or so years ago.However,now, ten years or so after the advent of MAGA and Trumps now almost total dominance of the Republican Party it’s laughable and totally without merit.
I STAND BY VIEW….
Donald John Trump is just about
Donald John Trump
No MORE
NO Less
Like a little baby
He just wants to get attention and HIS WAY…
As you point out?
He would and HAS done good and BAST BAD for ‘his’ party members…..
His actions
Even on this bill ARE HARMFUL
I’m gonna be laughing next November when the AP reports that the House has gone to the Democrats BECAUSE Trump fucked them for his own wants….
I nailed it about Rudy being a piece of SHIT
Trump , the crook , keeps THE STEAL going
Laughing all the way cept for the Manhattan FA and NY Judge
Inane
You addressed none of my points,just saying he’s all for himself.
So?
One can say that about many politicians from the village council to the White House.
Doesn’t prove he’s not a “ true Republican.”Thats ridiculous.
How about like 99% of the Republicans in Congress?Are they uh “true Republicans?”
How about the over 95%of Republicans who voted for him last year?Are they “ true Republicans?”
Indeed ,are there any “ true Republicans?”
My final post on this discussion.Totally nonsensical,idiotic and a few other adjectives I could think of .
Just because the knuckleheads LIKE HIM DOESN’T MEAN he’s a ‘True’ Republican
Donald Has signed up as a Democrat , Reform AND Republican Voter….
Why is this a discussion? Trump has controlled the Republican Party for approaching a decade now.
He being a Republican is why I am not one.
The Party that I used to belong to and the rest of you grew up despising does not exist anymore.
I agree with the wording…..
‘Controlled’
CG,
Have you read the biography of Mitt Romney by McKay Coppins that came out in 2023?
I had been meaning to to read it and just got around to it.Gave me a new perspective on the man.
Yes, I had bought a copy of that. It was very insightful.
Please explain guys?
Nothing to “ explain.”
I was just asking CG if he had read the Romney biography which actually came out in 2023.
I had just gotten around to reading it.
I might suggest that you do so.Romney was very forthcoming about what has happened to the Republican Party and,unlike most subjects of biographies ,cooperated with the author,even opening up his personal journal wherein he makes several devastating comments on Republicans who literally prostrated themselves to Trump.
Such would be a much better use of your time than some of the ill informed tripe you daily dish out here and the silly “I stand behind” proclamations after your “ revelations” are thoroughly debunked by one or another posters here.
I will try to take a look at ole Mott’s piece while I continue to entertain you with my views and knowledge!
I do find your “ views” entertaining as they are usually off the wall with little ,if any basis in facts,mostly just your emotional response to whatever is the matter at hand.
As to your uh “ knowledge?”Why you may be knowledgeable on other subjects,I have found you to be lesss knowledgeable on political matters than any other poster here presently ,or for that matter ,any former poster.
He, he, he….
Ah?
I back up my ‘views’ often and you jump to something else….
As I have said ….
I like our back and forth….
It makes me Better….
Sometimes?
It even makes me change my mind…
