"In northern Minnesota, a region hit hard by the steel slump and layoffs in the iron mines, 70 percent approved of the way Trump is handling the economy and job policy." - Star Tribune, 1/14/18
Red Alert:
The Florida State Legislature has just approved Amendment IV - The Right for Felons to Vote Act to be on the November ballot after the nigger rights supporting the measure claimed it got around 800k signatures on its petition. The GOP-controlled State legislature is thinking of passing a bill that will restore the nigger's rights only if jewdge grants his/her approval. If not, this amendment requires, I believe, a two-thirds majority (if not just sixty percent) to officially pass so it's a tough sell, but it's Florida - there's enough cucked-up people down here for it to pass.
NEWS: Per a GOP aide (via a member on the train), the train carrying members of congress to the GOP Retreat just had some kind of accident.
wow
this could be maybe the large GOP bill you said they would need
indeed
A thing about it is that Dems would most likely join in to vote, which would make it less of a GOP achievement.
The way I see this working out like the tax bill is if they're so obstructionist they don't vote for infrastructure
Well, it's official, the stock market is now 100% irrelevant
He cannot be crashed
Lol
Yeah since the election djia was up 45% now it's up 43% so lol whatever
The collapse wasn't as big in perspective
It'll be back up
I think that the subtext is far more interesting
Because you had MSM report on this, the 1000 point fall, it seems to have done nothing.
I think it's a huge deal, if they try something like this which I'm not sure they can do in many other sectors, it won't affect Trump's popularity whatsoever or even the confidence of the economy.
Some really great news sites:
I think this section is for providing news, not news sites lol
lol
but da illegals are good for muh gdp
that's something people are going to get triggered by
when we deport the illegals the GDP will decline
but GDP per capita will increase bigly
current GDP per capita is 60k
without illegals it would at least hike to 62k
Dershowitz on the Libertarian ticket, huh?
Well, in a state like NJ, that may be our best bet
I don't know, it just may work
Menendez is a crooked enough figure,
NJ and the vacant MN seat could serve as a path to 60
I think having some 3rd party blood in congress would be interesting
Dershowitz is old and I know he's not /ourguy/ by any definition of the word, but it would be interesting and better for us to have him over Menendez.
a libertarian would likely caucus would Republicans
Perhaps, Dershowitz has been making more inroads w/ the Fox crowd, I know that
The NJ Republican party isn't in good shape after Christie
I'm open to this
This is of course, all theory and speculation, Dershowitz himself I don't think's displayed any interest in running and I'm not sure the Libertarians are the first thing he'd have in mind.
But it's an interesting thought.
I'm not sure if he could win on the Libertarian ticket
people generally aren't willing to vote for a 3rd party candidate in large numbers
If there was a way to do it, that would be it, IMO
heh
A new bill proposed by Todd Rokita, US Rep and candidate for US Senate would make most bonuses resulting from the Trump tax plan completely tax free, this bill would be named the 'Creating Relief and Useful Middle-Class Benefits and Savings Act' or CRUMBS Act, a swipe at Nancy Pelosi's comment after the bill was made that bonuses obtained from the tax cuts were simple crumbs.
I hope it passes, it'd be another successful piece of GOP legislation, which would help their image overall, and would specifically help Rokita's campaign for Senate in Indiana immensely.
Also, it's some good bantz tbh
that's a good PR stunt too
@๐Boo-ton๐ that's good news
I wonder if it'll have much of an effect on Romney's senate run though
HAHAHA
YES
You know what this means?
The Bushite/McCain Republican wing is now officially dead.
They cannot even show their faces anymore, this is now the Trump party.
The only major mormon presidential candidate in history cannot even get backed in fucking Utah.
That speaks volumes about the state of the neocons, there won't be any new ones, only nationalists from here on out.
This is incredible economic news
He cut taxes and then the next month ran a SURPLUS
Holy shit
makes sense
as businesses invest more of the money they save, their profits go up and they end up with more in percentage to give to the fed
It's going to bode very well if it keeps up
Democrats may have shifted the American mindset on healthcare,
The only negative people have on the tax cut is how much it'd drive up the deficit
but Republicans have now forever changed how Americans think about taxes
If the deficit for fiscal year 2018 really will be only $176 B like the treasury report says it is, the we've got some amazing news on our hands
I think the federal shutdown may have had something to do with the surplus
Anyways, if stuff like this keeps up alongside the bonuses and the cuts in taxes, CRUMBS act, then there's absolutely nothing they can do with the stock market to fuck over Trump.
I'm having a good day
@FLanon when was the last time we ran a surplus ?
under Clinton
so, on a month by month basis, it's never been a surplus since then ? I know it was a surplus on a yearly basis under Clinton
@๐Boo-ton๐ I'm not sure about that on a month to month basis
Yearly, yeah, it was Clinton. I think between then and now we must have had one month which was a surplus.
Trump's not really fiscally conservative tbh
he thinks the debt can go away by increasing revenue,
but it will never enough for that, he'd have to make significant cuts to the healthcare programs
Unfortunately
Looked it up, Sept. 2017 was a surplus month
We definitely have to be much more efficient on healthcare programs, that's the main issue with the system
