Major GOP donors with their Republican lap dogs in congress spent decades convincing conservatism faced enemies on all sides. The poor and people of color were to be blamed for the failure to increase in wages promised by “Trickle Down”, AND any increase in crime. Undocumented workers were blamed for stealing high-paying jobs from U.S. workers here at home, and any increase in crime. Regulations that protected consumers' rights and workers’ safety and employment rights were “forcing” corporations to move manufacturing overseas, where workers’ safety is unimportant.
The biggest scam of all were the massive tax cuts for the 0.1% and corporations, tax cuts that brought the nation trillions-of-dollars of debt and to working people, many, MANY unfulfilled promises.
People of reason knew none of these Republican claims were true. Increasing poverty does not cause wages to stagnate, in fact, the opposite is true. Undocumented workers weren’t stealing high-paying jobs, in fact GOP legislators fought to reduce penalties for employers hiring illegal immigrants. Why, because major donors rely on the unskilled cheap labor of the “wetbacks”.
For those decades the Republican propaganda machine taught their followers that, distrust of minorities, foreigners, non-Christians, and others not like themselves were the true virtues of conservatism.
It was a simple task for the Republicans to sell conservatives on the idea that massive tax cuts for the fat cats guaranteed jobs lost to other countries would come flooding back to the U.S., well that ain’t happened yet, regardless of how many times these GOP tax cuts are passed.
Now, major GOP donors AND most congressional Republicans have discovered their years of propaganda have backfired, putting them in a corner, for which they are unable to find a safe path out as the idiot trump threatens decades of U.S. trade policy.
Major Republican donors and the Old Guard congressional Republicans underestimated the idiot trump throughout his presidential campaign. They also greatly overestimated the loyalty of their conservative Christian voter base.
They learned they had greatly overestimated the loyalty of their conservative Christian voter base the hard way, as the idiot trump used the hatred conservative Christians had for African-American President Obama and his family and “Birthirism” to mine the ignorance and racial hate held dear by the vast majority of Christian conservatives.
To name just a few of these GOP voter groups, whose loyalty was overestimated by the Republican establishment, they include, traditional conservatives who believe in some perfect conservative world of the 1950s, where minorities “knew there place”. Where Mom stayed home, kept house and raised the children while Dad worked. This wonderful way of life would all come back with the idiot trump in the White House.
The male dominated White Evangelicals also saw the 1950s image promised by the idiot trump’s White House, as support for their belief that a wife should be obedient property of their husbands and remain barefoot and pregnant.
The business types who lack ethics and are corrupt sorely need their world free of all those pesky regulations progressives demand for the protection of consumers’ rights, workers’ rights and safety, and environmental considerations. (These business types alone would rattle the faith libertarians had in the idiot trump’s promises of smaller government, not to mention the open corruption in his administration. However, all provide evidence that the human utopia envisioned by libertarians is impossible to achieve in the real world.)
With tens-of-millions of the idiot trump’s loyal supporters, those voters will be lost by any Republican, politician or donor, who would dare oppose any proclamation handed down by the idiot trump. Despite past criticism of the idiot trump by many long-serving congressional Republicans, there are few, now, who are willing to contradict anything said or done by the idiot trump, fearing voter backlash.
This fear of voter backlash by most of the congressional Republican Majority, permits the idiot trump to go “largely unchecked by Congress as he swipes aside decades of U.S. trade policy, goads allies and imposes tariffs that threaten to punish American producers and consumers as much as they hurt other countries.”
The idiot trump and his mindless minions believe he can do no wrong, even as he caused a, “weekend of chaos at the Group of 7 summit in Quebec.” While there, the idiot trump, “doubled down on his tariffs against Canada, Mexico and the European Union and lashed out at the Canadian prime minister over Twitter.”
“For months, as Trump has threatened to engage a trade war with U.S. allies and antagonists alike, some GOP lawmakers have voiced regret that Congress has ceded so much authority to the executive branch over trade, an area that the Constitution assigns to the legislative branch. That approach worked well under previous administrations, at least in the view of most congressional Republicans who hewed to the party’s traditional support for free trade.”
People of reason cannot have understood for may years the Republicans’ trade policies that served the fat cats at the expense of consumers, workers, and small investors.
Now with the self-proclaimed Monarch of the U.S. sitting in the White House, using his position to profit his own companies and family, while he burns his supporters, major Republican donors, and most of the Republicans in local, state, and federal seats.
How long will the idiot trump’s mindless minions defend his stupidity? Few are known for their analytical ability, and Karma is a b!tch.
After many, many years of useless wars, conservatives’ blanket approval of corporate caused environmental devastation, Republican policies forcing a widening income inequality, over-priced healthcare to serve the needs of Big Pharma, and the general screwing of average Americans, perhaps the idiot trump is the tool of Karma to screw the fat cats.
Wouldn’t that be nice? No, the conservatives won’t like seeing their super-rich gods get their well-earned comeuppance.
As Trump threatens decades of U.S. trade policy, Republicans are largely silent
And about the Wonderful 1950s, here's a surprise for conservatives under the age of 60.
