Why do working class Americans vote against their self interests?

Moron. The disinfectant they were talking about was bleach.

Trump remarked on the effectiveness of those methods and wondered if they could help address infections in the human body.

Here are his full comments:

"A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. (To Bryan) And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right?"

He continued.

"And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful."

Moron = Stann

How big of an idiot do you want to make yourself out to be ? Most disinfectants are chlorine -based aka bleach.

One of my favorites.........

The worst thing I heard was this plan to get rid of the death tax. That will , in just a few generations , allow the super wealthy to OWN everything and everyone. We will be totally enslaved. It was thrown in their with no taxes on tops , and all the other giveaways. They probably hoed no one would notice their end game.

Ghostocracy

As usual, political terms mean the opposite of logical English. The dead can't be taxed; they have no money. Therefore, it is a Daddy-Moocher Tax.

Another filthy lie told by the Rightist Preppy parasites is that the Left is all in favor of defunding the Fortunate Sons. That's a contradiction. Americans have to wake up, quit listening to the misdirecting cover-up by the Leftists' Right-Wing fraternity brothers, and we would finally realize what Leftists really are and exclusively have been for 200 years: pushy bossy heiristocrats whose unmerited attitude is that they are born to rule and to rule absolutely, whether in business or government.

Do the math you fucking idiot. You can't argue with facts.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

Like you are hoping no one notices your painfully obvious promotion of socialism? GTFO.

Typical retarded lie from a Preppylover who enforces their fear of White Americans. Socialism is a power fantasy of HeirHeads and always has been.

You loyal peasants stubbornly refuse to look at proof, such as the fact that is preached most fervently at the Ivy League country-club colleges, which are designed solely for rich boys and their nerdy boytoys.

How much does the death tax raise every year?

Go Back to the Crumbling Castles of Europe Where You Belong

Take all inheritances over a socially harmless $100,000, and it would gain us $10 trillion a year, which would eliminate all other taxes and pay down the debt. De-funding only those born in the 1% would give us $3 trillion a year.

You hypocrites always tell us to do it on our own, but never follow through about those who'd be nowhere without their trust funds.

Quit groveling before the Young Masters like some gutless peasant. You know perfectly well that their Dead Daddies aren't being taxed.

Working class Americans making $40,000- $50,000 a year proudly fly their TRUMP flags from their Pickup Trucks

But it is Bidenomics and the Harris economic plans that focus on stimulating the middle class. Do what is best for the working class.

The Trump economic plan is focused on what is best for Elon Musk

They are not stupid and they do not buy the pie in the sky, the future's so bright I gotta wear shades, the stock market is giving millionaires a lot more money, I'm going to fix everything but I can't think of a thing I would change message Harris was spouting. That means nothing to a guy who had to take a second job just to keep the same standard of living he had just 5 years ago.

In short, there is a very big sea change going on in which the GOP is becoming the party of the blue-collar worker while the democrats are embracing the rich, purple haired agitators and looking at the blue-collar worker with contempt. Here's a hint, just saying you're for the little guy while stabbing him in the back doesn't work anymore.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

Record number of Blacks, Latinos, women and young people voted for Trump. He won both the popular and electoral vote, flipped the Senate by up to 5 or more seats, and on the way to keep the House.

People got sick and tired of Leftists and their warped, depraved ideology. This was a generational shift.

The fact that you and the rest of the Leftist nut jobs are still in denial over what actually happened is only good news for Trump and the GOP, it means the American people will keep teaching morons like you the lessons of the 2024 election over and over.

Liberal Logic 101

FACT: The American people voted overwhelmingly to put Liz Cheney before a firing squad.

CONCLUSION: We lost because we took Ms. Cheney's side. Never again should we criticize Republicans for wanting to execute other Republicans; that is what the Ameican people want to be done. Pretty soon Democrats will be the only candidates left for them to vote for, and Kamala Harris will finally become the first woman President. The joy!

Stann, you can admit that is happening. I know you're still stuck on the narrative that the democrats are for the little guy, but they're just not anymore.

And you have been totally deceived IF you believe these new republicans under trump are actually working for you. trump works for trump only , giving people a few crumbs to survive. You will end up being worse off under him in the long term. Short term is the big con. You just don't see it yet.

Yeah, yeah, we heard all about how he was going to do that, then he turned around and actually lost wealth while in office. What democrat can claim to have done that? The bottom line is the average working guy is not stupid. He knows he had to take a second job to keep what he had just a few short years ago and all the rhetoric in the world about how the rich are doing better doesn't change that at all.

Both parties are working for the little guys in degrees. The republicans are offering unstable growth , unsecured funding and poor leadership. Schemes are never better than practical and pragmatic leadership. You won't realize what is going down until it,'s too late. I don't care to gamble with the US future.

No, it really isn't. Hell, if you don't believe me, read "The Big Short." It doesn't talk as much about the CRA, but it covers the bank side of it.

I've read The Big Short several times. Michael Lewis makes no mention of the CRA.

In fact, in the movie version, Mark Baum says assholes like you will try to blame the poor.

I wrote a comprehensive explanation of the GLOBAL derivatives bubble in 21 parts, with an appendix.

You can start here: Banks should never be forced to give subprime loans.

 

[DBA]

Ya know why it doesn’t talk much about the CRA? Because it had nothing to do with causing that debacle

Anybody with more than 1/2 a brain and apolitical could see that the CRA most definitely had a hand in the 2008 crash. Seriously, you need to start thinking for yourself instead of letting others feed you information.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

This is my own observation too.

In fact, I think that currently, there is a void in the "market", so to speak. The middle class has been ignored by both parties; if a new party comes along and says it represents them, it can potentially get a lot of votes.

A Republic Is a Foster Government

Parties are the problem; expanding what the citizens can vote on is the solution. All the proposed alternatives are bait-and-switch tricks from the elitist and self-appointed ruling class. In fact, all the foreign and domestic policies those pompous pundits propose are shallow and ignorant. Those who control the fake debate give us multiple wrong choices, all of which serve them and never us.

I don’t blame the poor any more than the rich. Much of the blame should be placed with the dimwits that loosed the restrictions without taking into account the obvious fact that some would take advantage. If a politician makes robbing banks legal and people start to rob banks, who fault is it? In my mind, it is both, but more so the politician’s for being so naive and shortsighted.

For you to be making that claim points out that YOU are repeating what others have fed you

Biden Harris didn't stimulate anything.

Wrong.

The CHIPS Act has resulted in all five of the global chipmakers committing to building plants in the US.

The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company built a plant in Arizona which is already exceeding production yields of its factories in Taiwan.

Investment in factories has more than DOUBLED since Biden took office. For the electronics industry, it has nearly QUADRUPLED.

Trump's 2017 tax cut inspired ZERO investment.

The Inflation Reduction Act is investment in manufacturing. As a result, factory construction has been skyrocketing and manufacturing jobs will also experience a boom.

Trump will take credit for all the benefits we will reap down the line from Biden's hard work. You can count on it.

The restrictions in this case had to do with allowing banks to gamble on mortgages.
