Let's Talk About Handouts Folks

He's your hero. Are you ready for what would come if he were reelected? They're coming for you as well as over 81 million Americans.

He is a leftist. I would never support a leftist. Those people are mentally ill.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Then don't complain when the refugees start crossing your Southern Borders, fool!!!!

only a small percentage are "refugees".....

 

[jotathought]

There is no invasion.

Better grab some propane for that gas light. Record numbers during the current administration, and even "sanctuary cities" are bitching about the financial outcomes, use of resources and crime.

This is 2024 .. get in your time machine and fast forward about 50 years.

He's a nutcase with billions to play in the sandbox. I lost a little respect for Haley when she temporarily jumped on the rump manure wagon but it's worn off. Why in hell didn't the GOP go with a decent experienced candidate instead. I am an Indy that leans to the right and I can't support the ticking time bomb who keeps going off over and over again. Anyone except tRump (the t is silent which is about the only thing about rump that is silent)

Haley is a war hawk. I have zero respect for her.
I didnt like any of the candidates running, really. Vivek was ok, but he seemed more like a used car salesman with the way he verbalized his ideas. Like he was a fake. But I did agree with most of what he said.
Cut cut cut, close close close. I like that.

With Vivek, I only saw tRump 2.1. 2.0 had already failed and went back to Florida. The other problem with both Vivek and tRump is that they are spoiled brats that has never had to work a day in their lives. Maybe we need to require all Presidential Candidates to have to work in "Scranton" (get it?)

Vivek isnt a leftist. He wouldnt have doen half the crap trump did. Attacks on the second, supporting DACA, giving money to communities because a majority is a certain skin color, rack up trillions in debt to give away to people for votes, supported closing businesses and such (which lead to the largest transfer of wealth in history) etc spent like a drunk leftist etc

Thank you for finally clearing up your actual stance. Truthfully, the only real difference from Vivek and tRump is tRump has the power and the funds to back his craziness.

 

[Dragonlady]

I do. American supremacy is why the world hates us. And while we worry so much about everyone else, we forget about our own people. Our own problems.

First off, the world doesn't "hate" the USA. That's the First Trumpian lie. Trump uses this lies to set up other lies. Your trading partners are "screwing you", your allies are "screwing you".

So Trump tore up your trade deals, and most of your strategic alliances, and stopped sending money to El Salvador and all of the Central American nations you were giving money to, and suddenly you have millions of refugees on your doorstep. Coincidence???? I think not.

If everyone in the world is taking advantage of you and screwing you over, why is the USA the richest, most powerful country in the World????? How did that happen if you were being treated so unfairly.

You need to start living in the real world. The USA has practiced a kind of corporate colonialism throughout the world. Instead of taking over countries, you bleed their economies white by planting American corporations who ship all of their profits home to the USA.

The most profitable company in Canada - Walmart. Those profits don't go to building wealth in Canada. Those profits get shipped home to the USA, where the Walton Family keeps getting richer. There are few areas in the world, where US corporations don't dominate. CocaCola, Disney, McDonalds, Walmart.

Stop listen to Trump's bullshit and lies about how you've been screwed over by everyone in the world. It's complete and utter BULLSHIT.

Vivek was a card carrying RADICAL leftist, before he saw the MAGA opportunity and jumped on the cult bandwagon of racism and stupidity.

Trump is the guy who racked up trillions in debt to give tax cuts to people for votes.

They already are .. a surge .. invasion ... and government is subsidizing them for shelter, food, clothing and other amenities .. which of course they are complaining isn't enough.

It isn't enough. They're coming with NOTHING but what they can carry. They need furniture, clothing, bedding, housing and food. If they aren't allowed to work when they get here, how are they supposed to get these things?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

What is now MAGA started with Reagan. Reagan was good at one thing, race pimping low to moderate-income whites. He used welfare as a racial issue whereby he created the lie that “working-class whites” were paying their hard-earned money to support lazy, shiftless blacks who wanted nothing more than a free handout. That was race hustle 101.

“Corporate welfare often subsidizes failing and mismanaged businesses and induces firms to spend more time on lobbying rather than on making better products. Instead of correcting market failures, federal subsidies misallocate resources and introduce government failures into the marketplace.”

The problem with making welfare about nonwhites and poor white people is that wealthy whites get most of the government handouts and always have. People yell and scream about welfare to the poor because they have been race-baited to envision a black woman with many little kids looking different following her around like baby ducks. But the major recipients of welfare are white men wearing black and blue suits who get up every morning and drive to work in their Mercedes or Range Rovers.

“The American government spends more on corporate welfare than it does on food stamps and financial assistance for needy families with children.”

The extent of the bait and pimp strategy to divert the attention of working-class whites away from who was taking from them is legendary. Welfare has been used to race-hustle low to moderate-income whites into voting against their best interest. For most of the last 30 years, Americans from one party have put people into public office at nearly every level of government with a philosophy of “government is worthless” and “we must cut taxes for the rich.” These politicians souped up the white working class with claims of how everybody else is getting benefits on the white man’s dime.

Meanwhile they get billions in Government subsidies annually. I'm gong to list the top 25. But the link will be to the top 100.
