  1. Help more than hurt. Trump haters are already Trump haters and there is nothing changing their mind. Same goes for his supporters. Maybe the polls are wrong but he is picking up significant gain with minority voters and overall his support seemed to increase with each new charge. Increase in support for Trump also has a significant amount to do with Biden failing so miserably.
  2. I agree....raise taxes on those that want higher taxes. Make it a simple check box that puts you in a higher TMR. Boom more tax revenue. In case you need this. https://www.fiscal.treasury.gov/public/gifts-to-government.html I wonder why the great philanthropists of our time like Gates and Buffett don't give to the govt? Would it be they also know govt just wastes it.
  3. Wow...you got me....damn smart of you copying what I did.
  4. Amazing historical times coming for the US Supreme court with more huge decisions to be made. Just wait who comes into this post and defends what she said. Same people that hate Trump, defend almost EVERYTHING COVID and want us to spend 100's of billions more in Ukraine. https://www.foxnews.com/media/justice-jackson-ripped-worrying-first-amendment-hamstringing-government-literally-point "My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the federal government in significant ways in the most important time periods," she told the lawyer representing Louisiana, Missouri and private plaintiffs. "And so I guess some might say that the government actually has a duty to take steps to protect the citizens of this country, and you seem to be suggesting that that duty cannot manifest itself in the government encouraging or even pressuring platforms to take down harmful information," she continued. "So can you help me? Because I'm really – I'm really worried about that because you've got the First Amendment operating in an environment of threatening circumstances from the government's perspective, and you're saying that the government can't interact with the source of those problems," Jackson added.
  5. And the flow of investment firms out of NY continue to surge. In the end this will cost the state far more than what they ever will get from Trump.
  6. These bonds generally aren't backed by real estate. Much of his net worth is likely in real estate. Take off you biased glasses for a second. You really think something like this where there was no victim and the group supposedly defrauded testified as such and even said they want to do more business with Trump is worth 1/2 billion in fines?
  7. Even some of the wealthiest don't keep almost half a billion around in cash nor have that readily liquid in 30 days. I doubt even the likes of Musk, Zuckerberg or Bezos could come up with that kind of cash that quickly.
  8. Just think all those wealthy people could balance the budget on their own if they just gave a little extra. https://news.bloombergtax.com/daily-tax-report/democrats-tax-hike-bet-relies-on-their-new-500-000-plus-voters?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=taxdesk&utm_campaign=5B08EF5E-A165-11EB-8C78-8C0750017A06
  9. To douche bags such as yourself...absolutely.
  10. You fit in well with the left looking down your nose at others. The 3 most successful people I know never went to college and all likely contribute more to society in a year than you have in your lifetime.
  11. What a mockery the justice system has become. $464 million in fines for valuing property that the banks agreed upon and even testified that it worked out well for them and they wanted to continue to do business with his organization.
  12. I tip very generously but honestly I wish they would just put the cost in and pay staff a standard wage. If its too expensive for the food they serve I'll just go somewhere else. Tipping has gotten out of hand. I've even seen it a few times for online merch purchases for the "packaging" people. FFS enough already. When I do use a card I usually tip with cash. I put TIT in the tip line on the receipt. Taxation is Theft.
  13. He says because of the TikTok ban and Trump's move to the center on abortion.
  14. I was agreeing with you just adding in that how kids are raised can make them killers as well. How do we prosecute that? What about parents who give easy access to alcohol and a kid kills people in a DD accident? No doubt I want some parent responsibility its just where do we start and stop? Hell my parents had these cool wildlife whiskey bottles that they never drank out of. They were basically water because we would drink them. There is a difference between giving a kid a gun and just not locking it up. I think in this case they bought him the gun(s).
  15. Yeah access to guns isn't the only way kids become killers.
  16. Inflation is both parties fault which means its the American people's fault. If enough American's simply stopped paying taxes they would have no choice but to spend less.
  17. So typical of people when looking at big corps financials. Oh my god they paid a $300 million dividend! GM's net income from normal operations is about 12% and normalized EBITDA around 18%. If you don't like how a company is ran don't buy their products. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GIS/financials/
  18. I've never claimed the counts or recounts were wrong. Both sides especially the dems use to complain that mail in ballots were ripe for fraud. My debate has been related to sig verification, voting rules changing without passing the legislature (per the us constitution) which included taking ballots that weren't filled out right or changing the dates they could come in, illegal drop boxes (Wis supreme court ruled they were illegal). This goes without mentioning the interference by the DOJ or IC on numerous levels. In any case Biden won and the country has had to deal with that.
  19. Good point.. Funny how those three closest states stopped counting and had significant vote dumps. Imagine the coincidence.
  20. How much more are you willing to pay to pay down the debt. Serious question.
  21. Oh FFS. Hold your little curser thing over those states and subtract the differences or do you need me to do the math for you? Trump had 232 EC votes. Those three states are 37 votes. He was only about 40K votes from 269. https://www.cnn.com/election/2020/results/president
