So who supports Bernie’ s propose 60% tax on billionaires.  Zucjerburg would pay 27.5 billion. Or was it Elon Musk?

Either way I personally think it’s a horrible idea, and really moves the needle towards complete socialist government.  I also think it would just be the beginning of the end of any form of meritocracy. 
I don't, of course.
But Bernie is not the Democratic nominee.
Joe Biden is a lousy campaigner, as I pointed out upthread, but he's not going to come out for anything that stupid.  Not before the election, anyway.

So that group you cite at the end of your post.....how many of them are there?  How did Trump take over the party?  How does he (somewhat?) still have control of it?
I don't know.  I used to think that there was a critical mass of them, but then most of them seem to have discovered that they like "owning the libs" and "winning" more than they do those small-government, classical-liberal principles they espoused for decades.

"Chicken farmers" is what I posted.  But maybe Williamson wrote "pig farmers."  Memory is fallible.
POTUS was occasionally leading in some pre-COVID polls, but mostly not.  He had a good chance, but it was no slam-dunk.

Slam dunk.
hard to take someone out of office when the economy is riproaring great.

due to the pandemic it now it’s not. But it’s probably doing better than it otherwise would be hadn’t been in bad shape to start with.

Now if you believe, as the narrative is portrayed, that POTUS is the one and only reason the pandemic exists then your conclusion has merit.

Exactly.  Once he is in, and being controlled by whomever due to his lack of senility, all bets are off

So who agrees with the executive actions taken today to benefit people hardest hit financially by the pandemic including new stimulus weekly money, extended relief for student loans, and extended relief from evection for renters.


I support all of the above because our members of the house can’t come to an agreement.
I don't because it's unconstitutional and should also be illegal.  I didn't support it when Obama did his "pen and a cellphone" thing when Congress wouldn't do his bidding, and I don't like it any better when Trump does it.
If I were the Dems, I'd introduce another impeachment resolution on it.  They won't because Obama did the same thing and they cheered.  Also because winning the election is more important to them than upholding the Constitution.  Just like the Republicans showed about themselves in January.

And people are afraid Trump won’t leave office when he loses LOL. More fake news. People are still whining about 2016
Trump has made repeatedly allegations that the vote was fraudulent or will be fraudulent with no evidence.

It's not all Trump's fault.  But he bears his share of the blame.  He's the only guy whose executive decisions affect the whole country.
Makes me wish for someone like Harry Truman, without Truman's politics.  With a sign on his desk that said, "THE BUCK STOPS HERE."
With Trump, it's the opposite.  He claims credit for everything good and accepts none of the blame.

No evidence?   Dude you got a watch some other stations besides CNN so you can see the massive male voting frogs that have taken place just in the last 30 days

Well he gets no love for me for his communication skills or the consistency of his message.

Having said that I think it’s hilarious how certain people ( media)act like the pandemic wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for him. They also act like some of the retarded leader ship at the state and local level that has absolutely caused unnecessary deaths, never happened

You are correct that there are some “Republicans “who aren’t for the traditional Republican things but rather want to on the liberals. What I’m saying is it’s the exact same way on the left where the normal things Democrats stand for like free speech for example are the furthest thing from their minds they just want to own the conservatives.  In fact I would say today’s Democratic Party is totally unrecognizable
