McConnell's Empty Threat

[Icarus]

One thing I give the Democrats credit for is being organized and voting the party line. I remember McCain voting to keep Obamacare. In contrast the Democrats have voted these atrocious inflation producing spending bills without any bipartisan support.

Earth to dumbass, over $2 trillion in stimulus was passed by Trump last year. Stop pretending you care about the debt or inflation.

Or one can run for President and do this directly, for the benefit of themselves and their own family, as Trump did with his businesses.

I find that funny given that when reading your leftist newspapers they talk about Trump's brand and fortune being destroyed. Contrast that with how wealthy the office has made Obama or Clinton.

But, you’d vote for him again in a second, so this problem doesn’t actually matter to you.

I'd do a lot more than vote for Trump. We're going to have a voice again on social media and break Zuckerberg's stranglehold on political speech.

Earth to dumbass, no President has made more money off of the office than Trump. Period. He's not only made a fortune for himself, but also his family members. What you're likely referring to is the fact that his businesses are suffering now that he's not in power.

Trump violated the emoluments clause, directed foreign dignitaries to stay at his resorts at inflated prices, etc. He's raked in nearly $2 billion in revenue because of this. He's also given favors to our enemies in exchange for cancelling his personal debts to them. How much do you think that airport he abandoned in Syria was worth when Russia took it over?

I’m sure that it concerns you that Obama, Clinton and/or any other ex-Presidents have earned millions through seemingly more legitimate means than Trump pocketing 175 million dollars since Election Day after telling you and your fellow supporters how he was going to supposedly use your donations to fight imaginary voter fraud.

That’s a pretty cool welfare gig he’s got going on. Maybe you should write him a few more checks while he continues to laugh at the folks who do so.

Just like establishment Democrats, McConnel has been brought and paid for by Wall Street. They have one objective which is to grow stocks and help the globalist oligarchs cement their control of the market by finding the cheapest labor either by shipping American manufacturing jobs to China or encouraging mass and illegal immigration to depress wages. This is why working class Republicans do not like McConnell. This was decided back in 2016 when McConnel and Paul Ryan could have done something to avoid the current border crisis. But cheap labor for cronie capitalists was more important than higher wages for the working class.

Ajax, without getting into every specific claim, your position is self-contradicting. Do Republicans believe in a free market, yes or no? You're arguing for socialism again. Albeit, a particular kind of socialism where wealth is redistributed to the white working-class.

What you don't get is that higher wages for Americans mean higher costs for Americans. One day you complain that wages are too low, the next you complain costs are too high. You can't have it both ways. Your fellow right-wingers on my walk have been convulsing lately over high gas prices. If Trump were president, according to them, gas prices would plummet as oil production flows such that -- wait for it -- American working-class oil industry workers salaries plummet.

Here is an interesting article about the cost of an iPhone if it were made entirely in the USA.

In this theoretical world, where only 1% of the population could have an iPhone (and assume alternatives don't exist for now), the cost would skyrocket. Not only can the 1% afford to pay significantly more, the iPhone would turn into an ultra-luxury item and just look at the order-of-magnitude price difference between say a Birkin bag and a Coach handbag — price differences in the 30–100x range. In iPhone terms that would bring us to prices in the $30,000 to $100,000 range.

Quit being a dumbass and learn something.
