Republican do conomy good

I cannot understand how this lie persists to this day. Republicans have trashed the economy in every single administration they had for at least the last half century. I'm an adult with children and my lifetime has not seen a Republican that was good for the economy...

Why do you think the example being trivial means that they all have to be trivial to apply? Examples are not all encompassing, nor do they seek to additional constraints that were not part of the definition.

The whole point of the fallacy is to disingenuously distance the group from acts that members of the group have done.

This is the opposite in the US. Government housing, when it was even attempted, was concrete trash, left to rot for decades.

Where are they living while they save up the several hundred thousand it costs to build one?

You'd vote for a president running on a platform they would have zero authority to enact?

You're assuming I didn't.

And my entire point was on those rare occasions where we did vote enough of them in to have a diving super majority (this shouldn't be necessary to get literally the most basic shit accomplished), they DON'T do those great things.

They do the half assed bare minimum, which has not been enough to combat the backwards March whenever Republicans are even in anything other than the super minority.

I was just saying, that's like 3x the drop the rest of the market saw, so you must have had a few very specific stocks that only had their supply chains through the hardest hit tariff countries

There's a bipartisan bill in the Senate right now to force the tariffs to expire after 60 days if not approved by Congress. So they're at least putting on a show of doing something. It mentioned it on the blurb up top

...but they're ALL defective

It also costs a few million just to fly him to maralago. Each time. Plus charging secret service for the rooms they stay in at his properties. He's just funneling taxpayer dollars into his own pocket.

S&P500 needs to drop at least 7% to halt things for 15 mins. It only drops 5 yesterday

To sell it later because he thinks it'll be a collector's item. His only thoughts are ever about making money.

Dozens of Bomb threats suppressed the election day turnout in Blue areas of swing states.

40%? Were you all in on Nike or something?

Rudy pulled the same maneuver and it didn't work out for him.

...and some say, to this day, the apple is still there.

No way Leon would let that Mars tariff slide

They used big words so The Dipshit won't understand enough to get mad at them for it.

They're going to hate women even more because you said this

So the cut that went into effect in '83 was passed in '81, just before a recession hit. So the US seeing an increase in revenue compared to the few years before that where unemployment was up over 8% and gdp dropping, is really more about the economy recovering than tax policy changes.
