  • Your comment reminds me of cars with Lets Go Brandon bumper stickers. Which all started with “impeach, the president and her husband too” bumper stickers during the Clinton administration. That’s when people got so delusional. They started putting the opposition on their vehicle and letting them occupy space in their head full time.

    And I know that’s where you were going with your comment. The problem is in this particular situation you look like the person who is unhinged. The entire purpose of this group is about Trump. Every Post in it will be about Trump. Anybody replying to a post is replying about something Trump did. Any comment someone is replying to will be about Trump. This is like the one place where literally everyone has Trump on their mind because that’s the entire reason for existing. So you comment just doesn’t work. If someone wasn’t thinking about Trump while commenting in here that means they’ve gotten off topic.


  • A vehicle for grift. Buy shares in a company. Convince the government to buy it. Get paid.

    Remember when Republicans wanted to privatize everything because government is slow, bloated and inefficient? Now they are endorsing government takeovers of companies.

    When you follow a party it creates a shortcut in the brain that stops you from questioning if an action of theirs is consistent with its beliefs. Next thing you know the party has changed all its positions and the followers don’t even realize that it changed but they still follow it.

    People voted for Trump because they thought he would ban all abortions. But he changed the official party platform to only want to ban late term abortion. When you show them the text they refuse to believe it even when you have them read it out loud. The platform changed. The platform changed and those single issue voters didn’t care because they believed it didn’t change.






  • The difference between a millionaire and a billionaire is a thousand. Population isn’t 10 times larger than it was 30 years ago. Inflation hasn’t grown by a thousand percent in 30 years. None of the things you named can account for an order of magnitude increase in the number of billionaires. Nothing you said can account for them holding a larger percentage of the total wealth. It’s not like when there was 60 and now that there are 664 that they both had the same relative proportion of the wealth. The wealth gap is increasing. So that hundred-plus million number that they hold more wealth than keeps getting larger and that number is growing faster than the population.
