Mrs. Trump should start looking for a high school near the White House for Barron.

Democrats faked a yearbook, forged Roy Moore’s signature and paid several women to lie against Moore and Trump

The media and democrats are doing a coup in Alabama

Democrats are pure evil and they are all marxists.

And Hannity calls for Roy Moore to resign. I’m done with Hannity.

But the Reagan tax cuts produced the greatest boom in America’s modern history. The results were so sensational that Reagan carried 49 states when he ran for re-election in 1984.

Trump is well on his way to doing the same thing so they need to dilute his success now with propaganda.

Reagan trickle down wealth was a lot better than obama trickle up poverty.

The only trickle I’m feeling from the tax-shift (really a tax shaft!) bill belongs in a urinal.

Raising taxes on the middle class, destroying or capping most of their deductions, and making laws that cause home prices to drop is not exactly a formula for economic success either.

Yup.

Here is your postcard. They have eliminated those pesky deductions that previously took minutes of your and your CPAs precious time to put into a form. Now all you have to do is just send more your hard earned $$$ in to the IRS, so that Mark Zuckerberg can pay less in taxes.

I am sure you don't mind chipping in.

I find I am reading the National Enquirer less and less as the weeks go by. All sex and child molesting.

I find myself watching Fox News less and less as the weeks go by. All sex and child molesting.

I find I am reading Free Republic less and less as the weeks go by. All sex and child molesting.

I miss our old Free Republic where politics was the primary focus.

Sigh ...

Knowing the history, means acknowledging effects of the 1980-1982
tight-money policies of Fed Chairman Paul Volcker (a 1979 nominee by Carter) followed by huge loosening of M2 in 1983-1984.

The failure of OPEC in the mid-1980’s also boosted GDP significantly.

Systemic changes saw the decline of major industries such as textiles and auto manufacturing in favor of imports, retroactive amnesty for millions of illegal aliens in 1986, and a widespread termination of middle-class employee benefits such as pensions in favor of financing of merger and acquisition activities into 1987.

quite the god damned whining

If this bill gets defeated, I will post a gif of fireworks exploding in celebration. Then, I will tell you to “get to work” changing the immovable forces of government if you don’t like it, and for you to quit your whining. But unlike you, I won’t blaspheme God doing it.

That's why I call this tax bill a tax-shafting.

Eight years of ZERO net new jobs. That’s what Ozero gave us with his massive tax increases.

And let’s not forget that the “Great Recession” and the Wall Street collapse happened only because the productive class realized that we were about to elect an anti-colonial, foreign born, Marxist non-citizen as president. The smart money left the country in a hurry and is just now coming back.
