The 2020 USA POTUS election politics, the civil war, and the world war (Part 1)

Texas is getting some socialism to bail them out of their poor decision making.

Was 1953 when America was great?

He’s fine with taking money from non-Texans to pay Texas utilities, instead of simply changing the regulations. The utilities don’t need the money. Why not take the money from them (the utilities)? If they refuse, institute a special tax on utilities to pay for it.

They are so big on Texas energy independence except when they can’t handle it. Then they want others to pay for it.

"“Since 1980, American tax policy has increasingly favored wealth over work.” That includes things like the maximum rate of income tax on dividends falling lower than the maximum rate of income tax on wages, an increase in the estate tax exemption limit, and a decrease in the tax rate on corporate income.

The richest have also gotten a lot richer. In the midcentury era,an average member of that elite group held 200 times the wealth of an average American. Now, according to the paper, they hold an average of 1,000 times more wealth than the everyday American."

Hmmm… so the Oath Keepers lawyer says the Oath Keepers are Trump’s Brownshirts.


A leader in an alleged Oath Keepers conspiracy in the US Capitol insurrection claims she was given a VIP pass to the pro-Trump rally on January 6, had met with Secret Service agents and was providing security for legislators and others, including in their march to the Capitol, according to a new court filing.

Attorneys for Ohio Oath Keeper Jessica Watkins detail how the efforts among paramilitants who are now accused of conspiracy on January 6 were closer to the apparatus around then-President Donald Trump and his rally than was previously known.

I already told you he’s a Republican!

What a bunch of left wing idiots!! They just go on & on, repeating & posting. Like a group of nit wits! :cold_face:

Prosecutor investigating corruption by Chicago Democrats. “Well son of a bitch, he got fired.

This is the verified account of the utility btw.

To be clear, this is one of the municipal utilities (opt out/grandfathered of the dereg). They have generation and sell at fixed price. Customer bills will be $0.12/KWh this month. But they evidently had to buy some poer at $9k/MWh too, so they will have to pay for it over time.

Pence knows if he attends there is a non-zero chance a Trump supporter will try to kill him.

/something he learned on January 6.

I do not anticipate you will agree with anything I write . . . and that is OK. It is fine. But you should try to understand the politics on the other side, which is strictly an INTRA-party thing and not a comment, or an attack, on your beliefs. Start with this:

I am not a Republican. I am a Conservative.

In recent times, with the exception of Presidents Reagan and Trump, I have been forced to vote for candidates who did not represent my views. These candidates happened to be Republicans far too left wing for my taste.

Try to understand that, for many Republicans, both Reagan and Trump were not/are not welcome as their party’s standard bearer. The lesson for you is that there is a serious split in what you erroneously view as the monolithic “Republican Party”. Since you’re on the other side, let me try to explain this way:

If you dislike Republicans, you should make special effort to dislike people like me much more. They are far closer to your political positions than I am. That’s why I detest them.

So finally

President Reagan was on my side. Thus many Republicans did not find him at all acceptable. I hope this helps you better to understand your opposition. You have far less to be concerned about with Republican squishes than you do with Conservative people like myself.

Ruh-roh. Capone scale fraud about to be substantiated?

Why such an interest in a man’s tax returns? Such happiness! Maybe proof, excitement abounds… :anguished:

Numbers aren’t subjective. If/when the two columns don’t add up, they objectively don’t add up.

I wonder how long it takes from when the opposing NY lawyers get his returns til when they are anonymously leaked to the NYT. My money is under a week.

Kamal, 16 days ago: “I’m an actual conservative

Shinobi " I am not a Republican. I am a Conservative. "

An actual conservative is in favor of doing things that are shown to work once they’ve been tried on a smaller scale. You are a Republican.

Stahp. Next you’re going to say Lincoln was a Republican. Of course that was before the two parties swapped places…
