      According to his biography, he was making much more money in the private sector before he went into politics--his profits were largest toward the end of his private career and he was on track to be a billionaire had he remained in that sector. Instead, he put himself to public service.

      If you took a minute to actually do research instead of repeating what you’ve been told, you would realize that they weren’t such a bad idea. Look up tax revenue by year. What do you know!! It went up when the tax cuts went into effect. I bet you didn’t know that because you like being lied to by the media. By the way, that’s based off the official government website. I’m not saying it was a good idea, however we didn’t loose revenue like the media portrayed. The problem is we still spent more than we were bringing in. Which has happened for the last 30 years so you can’t blame the debt on one president and turn a blind eye to the others.

      The great minds of ancient history warned us. Once the people (democracy) discover they can vote themselves benefits at others expense, it's over.
      It should be obvious, they have voted themselves benefits at the expense of our children and grand children and their children, with the borrowed money we have burdened them with, and all the interest that must be paid, FOREVER.

If people like Mitt Romney had grown a pair when they had the chance and properly stood up for their voters, maybe we'd have a more palatable political landscape right now. Trump is simply a Republican who refused to let the Democrats run roughshod over him. Nothing more, nothing less. The fact that that comes as such a shock to a lot of people only shows you how bad it was before.

Perhaps he can change the tax laws so that capital gains income is taxed at the same rate as W-2 income. The pretense that the tax savings will be used to create American jobs has proven to be a dishonest lie told to the gullible. Instead Mitt gives speeches about people living on Social Security, Veterans benefits, and disability being the problem.

      Such disregard is the providence of start 2 wars Joey Biden. First he supports Ukraine's entrance into NATO enabling same to place missiles on Russia's border. Then he arms and funds Hamass by leaving $8 Billion of military armaments in Afghanistan and giving $6 Billion to Iran via Korea. How do yo spell tree son Joe? His handlers aren't that dumb. This was purposeful.
