In an attempt to strengthen his populist base, Trump is considering letting his previous tax cuts expire to eliminate taxes on tips.

does anyone really think Americans will rush to sign up to "screwing in tiny screws" on iPhones for the same measly wages and no benefits that foreign workers currently get?

They will if we're in the worst depression in history, and there's no other work.

It was a ---- show everyday single day.

No it wasn't! Until January 20th this nation was in pretty fair shape. The ---- show just started in the last couple of months.

Moving further left will lose more Democrat voters.
#6 | Posted by oneironaut
Further left? All the Dems have done is creep to the right for the last 40 years. It certainly can't be any worse than what's currently happening. I'm willing to risk it.

Honest question for everyone here...
Why do you think the Trump regime skip tariffs on most oil producing nations?
I really haven't found any reasonable answers to this question, on the interwebs.

Perhaps someone with more civics knowledge than me can answer this....
Does the minority party have any power to demand that "Ron Vara" appear for testimony?

At some point, dear leader said the tariffs were about bolstering US trade positions. He has also advocated for American energy independence. If his policy is right, wouldn't tariffs on other oil producing nations help accomplish his goals?

Here's a question for the Trumpers...
Why aren't any of the Tariffs on major oil producing nations, like Saudi Arabia?

I imagine his concern for their funerals will go something like the following....
Reporter: Mr. President, will you be attending the funerals of the four recently returned dead soldiers?
Trump: Why? They won't be attending my funeral.

You mean that same working class that voted for Trump because they needed to spend their entire paycheck to live while Biden/Harris were in office?
#7 | Posted by fishpaw
Yes. That same uninformed lot.

It sounds like Wall St. is worried about share values, as usual.

MAGA is looking for a new brand, where under age boys comprise most of the service staff.

Trump doesn't care because this "tax increase" effects the working class FAR more than the wealthy. Those who need to spend their entire paycheck to live will be effected way more than those who don't. Such wide ranging tariffs are actually a way to pass that libertarian wet dream, the so called "fair tax". Where only purchases get taxed.

In a world of significantly inaccurate polling. I'll wait until Tuesday to see what happens.
Since Trump pulled the plug on Elise Stefanik's nomination, no matter the outcome, these elections could not give Democrats control of the House.

There only needs to be ONE peace deal. Russia needs to get the hell out of Ukraine. Then there will be peace.

Not sure, but word is he's sometimes called upon to blow into the breathalyzer when Pete's feeling a bit off his mark.

Massive protests didn't work there. What chance do they have here?

I'm actually kind of tired of Hillary. It's time for her to enjoy a quiet retirement.

And who's going to implement that? Certainly neither of the current major political parties.

FTA:
"PBS news is not just left leaning, but is actively uses taxpayer funds to push some of the most radical left positions," Greene said in her opening statement. "Like featuring a drag queen on the show 'Let's Learn,' a show targeted toward young children ages 3 to 8 years old." Kerger, the PBS CEO, later responded to Greene's assertion, saying that the drag-queen "was not actually on any of our kids' shows." "It was mistakenly put on the website of our New York City station," she said. "It was immediately pulled down. It was never broadcast." Greene echoed other Republicans on the committee, saying "For far too long, federal taxpayers have been forced to fund biased news. This needs to come to an end and it needs to come to an end now," she said.

And the perceived bias the right has about public broadcasting? ...I can certainly see how the current crop of conservatives view anything factual/truthful as having a liberal bias.
