US Democracy Experiment Ended By An Actor and a Game Show Host

[Cellblock2429]

The two most destructive administrations to American Democracy were the Actor Ronald Reagan's and the Game Show Host Donald Trump's administrations. Entertaining performers are not qualified to run a country and susceptible to ultimate corruption.

Discuss.

Reagan

• Put the US in a debt death spiral with Reaganomics/voodoo-economics (cut taxes and raise spending)
• Destroyed regulations that kept the economy competitive for the consumer's dollar
• Eliminated protections for Unions that kept them on equal footing with companies leading to half a century of wage stagnation
• Started the pathway to cut needed public programs from education spending to poverty support
• Welcomed and recruited the religious influence into politics destroying the separation of church and state
• Led the way to the top 1% consolidating the money into the largest wealth gap in the industrialized world

Trump

• Waging an all out war on intellectualism, science, education and research
• Eliminating the remaining poverty support for children and the needy, criminalizing homelessness
• Destabilizing long term world alliances that have kept stability for 80 years
• Dismantling the administrative state in critical life saving functional roles and responsibilities of the government
• Undermining equal protection and rule of law that has created a stable US society
• War on immigration which had previously powered the US economy, population growth, culture, and position as world leader
• Appointed and embraced corporate oligarchy into power
• Led the way to the top 1% consolidating the power into the largest reductions of freedoms in the free world

I stopped reading at your first screwball, misinformed lie. Reagan didn't do that. He proposed it, but only Congress can raise or lower taxes and control spending. If you noticed today, Congress is battling over the budget, not the president. You big dope.

BTW, Reaganomics led the great expansion of the economy in history and ran through the Clinton administration.

So to you separation of church and State means religious people can't participate in government?

The rest of this is AI created horse-shit.

To be fair, all the Republican presidents starting with Nixon pursued reckless, irresponsible policies that harmed America.

But it's true Reagan and Trump were the worst.

It was never anywhere near as insane as you Trumpsters portrayed it.

250,000 a month is not insane? LOL

The president is driving the negotiations on the budget genius. So did Reagan. They can veto anything they don’t agree with. Welcome to America.

/----/No doubt, but it will be Congress who passes the budget. Trump can sign or veto.
