Because he stood up to Trump and poked the bully in the chest 😂 Isn't it cute the way his wife and the military mook are all copying his 'leaning tower of pizza' (sic) body language? You'd think they're on a ship and Gavin is standing up like a normal human being on the dock.

Trump Wants to Remove US Citizens from the US
SiSePuede419 replied to Etaoin Shrdlu's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
No law, except 14th A, SCOTUS decision Afrorim v. Rusk (1967), Vance v. Terrazas (1980) These rulings established that the government cannot strip citizenship unless the individual voluntarily gives it up. But as you know quite often the government ignores the law and you have to sue them in court to uphold the law. ChatGPT: While the law protects citizens from removal, there have been documented instances of U.S. citizens being mistakenly detained or deported, often due to errors in immigration enforcement. For example, over 4,000 U.S. citizens were wrongfully caught in the immigration system in 2010 alone. Obama was president then, mmmkay. I'm no Trump supporter, but this is more about the camera on GOP TV than reality. -
Trumps updated approval ratings compared to Biden
SiSePuede419 replied to thesetat's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
Trump's followers easily make it out of the shower in the morning... Because they can't read the instructions on the shampoo bottle "Shampoo. Rinse. Repeat" So they don't get stuck in an infinite loop! See? They knew not being able to read would come in handy someday. Gotcha, Libs! 😀 -
S&P 500 -8+% since Trump inauguration Cost of Living up+, average dozen eggs $6.20 Guess you dumb racists are happy, however because he's rounding up the "right" people. 👋

Renaming something to rebrand because of a bad history doesn't mean anything else changed. Now the KGB has an agent inside the house. Who appoints unqualified Fox Camera Monkey who literally has the temperament of a howler monkey. Just wait until we're at war and he's under pressure GLUG GLUG GLUG Nothing to worry about! NOTHING! 😄 Your team is the best, da. Russia won. Congratulations 👏

Me: How much did Donald Trump run budget surpluses every year and pay down the debt like a fiscal conservative would do? ChatGPT: Donald Trump did not run budget surpluses during his presidency, nor did he reduce the national debt. Federal Budget Deficits Under Trump (approximate figures): 2017: $665 billion 2018: $779 billion 2019: $984 billion 2020: $3.1 trillion (pandemic year) 2021: $2.8 trillion (partially his budget; Biden took office in January) Total deficit added during Trump’s time: Around $7.8 trillion to the national debt. National Debt: At the start of Trump’s presidency (Jan 2017): ~$19.9 trillion At the end (Jan 2021): ~$27.8 trillion That’s an increase of about $7.9 trillion, the third-largest increase in U.S. history in dollar terms, behind George W. Bush and Barack Obama. Fiscal Conservatism? Despite campaigning as a fiscal conservative, Trump: * Signed a major tax cut in 2017 (TCJA) that reduced federal revenue. * Increased military spending and maintained most domestic spending. " Did not propose or enforce substantial spending cuts. ChatGPT is "artificial intelligence", or basically crowd sourced information. The response to this from butthurt conservatives who feel bad because they're been exposed for liars? "Natural Stupidity" --The most dangerous and destructive force known to mankind. Truly impressive. Salute 🫡

What is a Gish Gallop? A long string of lies. Everything here is just another lie. Won't bother to address any of them because they'll just respond with another GG. Standard Russian Propaganda method. Busted, KGB agent #65376 🤓

The reason Republicans can't admit the Truth? Because no Republicans have ever had a balanced budget, ran surpluses and started to pay down the debt. Like Bill Clinton actually did. Admitting the Truth would make Republicans feel foolish, gullible and used. AWWW, POOR BABIES BINGO. 😭
-
You avoided telling us what surplus means and how it's possible to run a surplus and not pay down the deficit, which is physically impossible. Except if you are crazy or mentally ill. Then I guess whatever you claim is 100% possible. It's called delusions. Man, Trump supporters are carrying a heavy burden, folks. They're like homeless people pushing around shopping carts, but instead of cool possessions, they're just Russian talking points. They think they got it all. Just ask 'em. They'll spew out the KGB Firehose of Falsehoods.

How to say you have no idea what the word surplus means without saying you have no idea what the word surplus means. 👍

Duh. This is why I come here. For so much wisdom that I can't get outside of elementary school. Next, tell us which Republican President didn't run an annual deficit and began paying down the debt? "None, in my lifetime" Which Democrat President didn't run a deficit and began paying down the debt? Bill Clinton. Now <deleted> about Democrats not caring about the debt or less deficit spending. 😭

Partisan liars don't care about facts. They will churn out more lies "Gish gallop" and shovel out more biased questions that if you answer honestly it makes them look ignorant and foolish. ✅ Bill Clinton (1990s): Under Clinton, the federal government ran a budget surplus for several years. His administration focused on deficit reduction, partly through the 1993 Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, which included spending restraint and tax increases. Barack Obama (early 2010s): During the push to recover from the Great Recession, Obama supported stimulus spending, but later backed spending cuts in negotiations with Republicans—like the 2011 Budget Control Act, which imposed caps on discretionary spending (a.k.a. the "sequester"). Joe Biden (recent years): While the Biden administration has passed major spending bills (like the Inflation Reduction Act), it has also claimed deficit reduction—for example, in 2022, the White House pointed to a $1.4 trillion drop in the federal deficit from the previous year, largely as COVID-era emergency spending tapered off. Individual moderate or fiscally conservative Democrats (like Sen. Joe Manchin or former Rep. Stephanie Murphy) have also pushed back on large spending proposals, advocating for smaller packages or more targeted spending. So, while Democrats often prioritize different areas of spending than Republicans, there are moments where they’ve advocated cutting or restraining spending—especially when deficits or debt become politically salient.

Just like your hair, Critical Race Theory isn't creating any problems. Just think about all the money you're saving on haircuts. And donations to Donald Trump to "win" dinner with him, which weirdly enough no one has actually won. 😄

You keep on ignoring my questions and not answering them. True or False? Only Congress can pass laws. True or False? Congress has been controlled by mostly Republicans for decades True or False? Republicans in Congress have never attempted to simplify the tax code only talked about it Answers: T, T, T. 😭

Your hero Donald Trump really does have a "superpower"... It is being so brazen and insistent in his dishonesty and stupidity that his lackeys, sycophants and credulous marks HAVE NO CHOICE but to adopt his stupidity and dishonesty as their own. Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, may I present the above for your consideration. 😄
-
So you want to keep ignoring that all 100% of Republicans in Congress don't want to do this and ignore the fact that Republicans have controlled Congress most of the time since the 70s? 😂

Hauser’s Law is often cited in debates about taxation, but it's frequently misunderstood or misapplied. BINGO 😄 Here's a breakdown of why it's insufficient to argue against raising taxes on the rich to boost prosperity: 1. It’s Descriptive, Not Prescriptive Hauser’s Law is an observation, not an economic law like gravity. It doesn’t prove why tax revenue remains stable—it just notes that it has. Using it to argue that tax policy changes are futile is a leap in logic. 2. Revenue Stability Can Be a Result of Other Factors The percentage of GDP collected in taxes may stay the same for many reasons, like: Tax loopholes Shifting income categories (e.g., from wages to capital gains) Tax avoidance or evasion by the wealthy Changes in economic behavior due to tax rates So if revenue as a share of GDP stays constant despite tax changes, that might signal a broken system, not that tax policy doesn’t matter. 3. Hauser’s Law Doesn’t Address Distribution Even if total revenue as a percent of GDP stays steady, how that money is collected matters a lot. Shifting more of the burden onto the wealthy can: Reduce inequality Increase effective demand (since lower- and middle-income people spend more of their income) Fund public services and infrastructure, which support long-term prosperity 4. It Ignores State and Local Taxes Hauser’s Law only looks at federal revenue. But many tax policy decisions happen at state and local levels, where the impact of progressive taxation can be more pronounced and meaningful. 5. GDP Isn’t a Perfect Benchmark Linking revenue to GDP alone ignores broader impacts like: Wealth accumulation at the top Underinvestment in education, health, and infrastructure Long-term fiscal sustainability I RECOMMEND YOU LEARN HOW TO USE CHATGPT SO YOU DON'T LOOK SO GULLIBLE TO FAKE GOP TALKING POINTS Let me know if you need any help setting up ChatGPT. 👋

Sesame street can help you clear up your confusion about how tax laws are passed. Hint: Democrat Presidents can't pass laws. Hope this helps!

According to ChatGPT, the US debt problem is caused by Republicans Gaslighting us. When Democrats are in charge, they whine about the debt. When Republicans are in charge, nothing matters and they keep blaming Democrats. Tired old and stupid is no way to go through life, son 😂 The U.S. national debt has grown under both Republican and Democratic presidents, but the largest increases in raw dollar terms and as a share of GDP have often occurred under Republican administrations, especially in recent decades. Would you like a chart showing debt growth by president or adjusted for GDP? No thanks ChatGPT, I think all the losers here just want to lie to us and gaslight using their bloviations they put out of their bums. 😁

Gaslighting chorus. Are you an alto or soprano? 😭

It could be done tomorrow. If Rich people want to do something, it can be done very quickly. But they don't. And Republicans won't. They're in charge now. No way are they going to simplify the tax code to a simple curve with no deductions for anything.
