It’s a video. So watch for yourselves, straight out the horses mouth.

God you gullible ass conservatives and your trickle down economics BS is beyond tiring. Y’all JUST gave the elites tax cuts, yet that wasn’t enough?

This kind of crap is why Americans are increasingly attracted to socialist style policies. Y’all are hellbent on moving this country so far right to the point where we will never remotely recover from the income inequality gap.

People are sick of y’all bending over backwards for the elites while trying your hardest to cut programs that actually help the 99%. This is exactly why mayor Pete, Yang gang, Bernie and warren are increasing their popularity.

What Trump and his minions don't understand (or perhaps they do) that lowering taxes on corporations and the wealthy only serves to shift the burden to the middle class.

So great we're working but we're not making enough to shoulder the burden...

Freaking asinine - the unemployment rate is basically as good as it is going to get right now.

"Trickle Down Economics" is a lie that doesn't work - but have no fear the stooges will parrot faithfully while they are exploited.

I too think trickle down economics is a boomer scam, but sheesh.

Blaspheming at others posting their opinions? You should take a breath and go outside for some air! Goodness!

I agree that such labels aren't helpful and do nothing to support healthy debate. Yet at the same time for some of his followers it is a pretty accurate description. They parrot everything he says. Even the most stupid of things he says.

Some of them never attempt to fact check anything he says and insist, even when he does something that's foolish, they must support him lock step on everything.

Let's take his latest Fed Chair nominations of Cain and Moore. I'm not sure why this issue hasn't been brought up in this forum, but you can bet your bottom dollar that those who do fit under "the Trumpian umbrella" will fight tooth and nail to support such a stupid move to the bitter end.

So while I agree that those labels do not support healthy discussion, there are certain Trump supporters which those labels do accurately describe.

The biggest problem I have with those labels is that not everyone who voted for Trump fits those labels. I can see where everyone who voted for Trump may take that as if you're trying to label them as well. So it's not like I don't see the point you're making.

You can only reference "stooges" on this website when referring to Banner, Lombardi, and Haslem.

It is known.

At no point in the video does he even mention giving anybody additional tax cuts.

Exactly. Nobody will get any additional tax cuts. Those will all go to businesses as usual.

right, i watched the entire interview beyond the yahoo article. he clearly states they're gonna continue pushing those policies for business.

since DC loves running interference, perhaps he can tell us when is infrastructure week. or healthcare. or anything that actually benefits the majority.

So CNBC inferred from that the headline, which he didn't actually say but it got you to click on it and bite off on their inference... win for them.. he just that they plan to continue to push some pro-growth policies..

infrastructure week is usually in May. If you can tell me what the rest of that means, I'd be glad to answer.

Lol... the wall is what many of the sheep consider all the infrastructure we need.

But Obama...pfffft...Turned around the Great Recession, had lower taxes, lower gas prices, less golf, healthcare coverage for all, student loan relief, and Osama Bin Laden DEAD.

All names aside, they aren't wrong in their assessment(s). So I have a (serious, non-snarky) question:

Why don't you add your voice to the chorus, without the names they used? You might be able to reach some posters who are put off by the names, but might be open to the opinion? From many of your comments, you seem to share their opinions on 45* himself, as well.

So if the names are your only objection, why not use your own words to put a better paint job on the same product? Seems to me that you are actually on their team, at least in this narrow scope.

Here's what catering to business while trying to make excuses for low wages comes down to. These are the current prices in California and what one of the wealthiest banks in America pays. This is the result of greasing business while ignoring workers. This is a freshman congresswoman who previously lived on an income from a low wage job. And yes, she actually drives a 2008 mini van.
