A vote for Trump is a vote for Putin / Orban / Kim Jong Un

Do you think it would be bad if Musk and Bezos would have less and some poor people in need would have more?

I think it would be great for "poor people in need" to have more. 

 

But what does Musk and Bezos' having less have to do with poor people in need having more?  Do you think the left raising taxes on Amazon or "the greedy rich" is going to improve the lives of poor people? 

 

I am not a fan of Bezos, but how many lives have been improved by Amazon?

 

Do you think that when corporate income taxes are raised, the owners are just going to take the hit? They are not. They will just raise prices. Revenue comes from consumers. Taxes come from revenue. It's only complicated for really high IQ individuals. 

 

The US Government is flushing money down the toilet as fast as they can, and the high IQ people think the problem is that they need more money to flush down the toilet. 

 

Actually, it would better serve the country if some of it were flushed down the toilet rather than how it is actually spent.

Is that what you really think?

Are you able to see a difference between the far left, the left, the center, and people who are conservative but still don't want Trump?

I.e. is Liz Cheney one of those people who want to have their communities overrun by illegal aliens, allow men in their daughter's showers, more welfare and higher energy costs?

 

Obviously, there are some crazy far left people out there, but there are not so many of them. They just seem to have very big loud mouths. 

 

Liz Cheney, Dick Cheney, Kamala Harris, Obama, the Bushes, the Clintons, Bruce Springsteen, Mitch McConnel, Jeff Bezos, Oprah Winfree, Magic Johnson et al, will never suffer the consequences of their ideology. 

 

The only immigrants in their neighborhoods are cutting their grass and cleaning their toilets. 

 

They are not waiting in line at the emergency room, and their kids are not in public schools, and do they care about the price of milk or gasoline. 

 

Illegal immigration benefits the rich, at the expose of the poor.

I think you mean Reagan.

 

Thatcher loved him as well - like she loved Reagan. Hayek was staunchly 'anti-socialism'.

 

Although what passes for 'socialism in the US is a joke. When people call Harris a 'Marxist' and The Economist a 'leftwing' publication, you know the world's gone mad.

 

Personally I think social media is mainly responsible. Not any putative 'socialism'.

It is all a big reality tv show to a big chunk of trumpers.  The crazier the behavior and words that come out of his mouth the more they cheer.  Unfortunately it is not a TV show.

 

I also laugh about this one - until it became reality.

You didn't answer my question. I guess you know why you did that.

It's got to be higher than when they elected a sleazy, corrupt old man with dementia, simply because he wasn't Donald Trump.

 

It's got to be lower than when they elected a lying, cheating narcissist, simply because he wasn't Hillary Clinton.

I.Q.? Because you may disagree with someone, it does not mean they have a low IQ, and you have a high IQ. That, to me, is appallingly arrogant and not a sign of high IQ.  Did you watch the dinner? Hugely funny and intelligent by Trump and embarrassingly cringe-worthy of Harris. I think it's very close, but silent voters might turn it Trump's way. It's exciting, and I will watch it all night. If Harris wins, I will not denigrate her supporters as having low IQs, although I have my suspicions.

They didn't Elect him. The 'electoral college' SElected him after he lost. He hasn't won one election so far.

 

That is the great danger this time as well. But as long as they are more frightened of real change in the US, they'll have to put up with their demockery - like the UK.
