@AverageJoe1 saidyes, there are few worse than trump. Stupidity coupled with narcissim plus a cult like following make for perhaps the worse garbage you can have as president.
So, you are saying anyone but Trump. Forum gold.
even if there would be others more evil than trump, at least some of the spineless republicans currently backing him would go against some of the worse policies. Or maybe they would be less stupid than trump and not throw tarrifs at the wall. Or maybe less narcissistic and accept advice.
So yes, anyone but Trump. Absolutely anyone currently in the democratic party including joe manchin and most of the republican party.
@sonhouse saidShouse wants us all to recognize that when the japs send a Sony TV here on a boat, and we charge say 20% tariff, then Sony just adds 20% to the price.
You are showing your incredible lack of brain cells. Tell me. WHO PAYS THE TARIFFS?
Sonhouse sees somethign wrong with this.
But he never mentioned before that when the USA raised corpoorate taxes by 6%, that the corp 'passes on' this amount to the consumer by raising their product prices by.....you guessed it.....6%.
So Sonhouse, you have known this, as we all do, same concept...corps and Tariffs are passed on to the consumer. Please take your comment to a conclusion.
To answer your question, the ultiimate consumer 'pays' the tariffs. duh

@shavixmir saidSo, Sanders. You don't fool me, you want FREE HOUSING, you silly goose. If i were a dependent, I would want him too
Sanders.
Anyways… anyone who’s not a bloody paedophile, narcissist, ignoramus would be better than what you have now.
Here is a question.......Would a dependent be more likely to vote democrat, or republican. Further, would an INdependent vote for a republican, or for a democrat.
( i spect that the concept that 'some people work harder than others', and also the adage 'you eat what you kill', would enter into their decision!!)
@Zahlanzi saidBernie Sanders would make a reasonable President. For one, he wouldn't take any sh** from businessmen and would re-orient America towards "We The People." 😆
Bernie Sanders
Bernie Sanders would Make America Great Again - we aren't great anymore. Trump has killed our greatness, with assistance from others of course, who should be lined up against a wall and shot.
But Bernie would probably just exile them along with all the hardcore Trump supporters. 😆
@AverageJoe1 saidI guess the idea those billionaires will get favors done as payment for their service never occurred to you.
This one says we should have the common man in the cabinet. However, some think that accomplished leaders should be in the cabinet.
To be clear, the amount of money they have is simply a measuring tool, we measure success by how much money we generate. Some, like 40 of the posters here, think that there is simply something wrong with success.....is it because of the ...[text shortened]... cabinet choices, money comes along as part of their makeup.......what do you fellers want us to do?
Like a dude who used to be a plumber say, gets posted as some official cabinet job, whatever, sec of education, now he asks Trump for a favor, My grandkid needs a letter of recommend to get into college.
So then we take a billionaire put in the same post, HE asks trump for a favor,
I need your 50% tariff cut way down on MY aluminum I need for my bicycle company.
No difference, right?
@AverageJoe1 saidSo why does your Lord Trump keep spreading the lie that it HELPS consumers?
Alright!!!!!! The consumer. You got me!!! Who knew!!!!
He spreads the lie that say tariffs on Chinese goods hurts CHINA.
It HURTS AMERICAN citizens who buy the goods so how does that help ANYTHING?
@AverageJoe1 saidWhat YOU cannot accept is a LOT of people feel just like me.
Could someone NOT write like SHouse. We GOT Sonhouse.
A growing number that will run those 'sinister zombies' out into the street and REAL humans taking their place come next year.
Like people in congress who actually listen to their constituents as opposed to what we have now, a town hall meeting happens and the republican congressman or senator refusing to even show up. Or the ones that do, when presented with "People will DIE'" she goes WE ALL DIE. And then the next day she makes a fake apology, 'I'm glad I didn't have to talk about the tooth fairy'.
So when are we going to get republicans in office who actually listen to constituents and work to resolve those issues?
What we have now is a bunch of power mongers a LOT more interested in continuing their power and SCREW the wishes of constituents.
@sonhouse saidUhhh, Sonhouse.......Your references to 'favors' is no more than what is going on AS WE SPEAK......Porkbarrel stuff loaded into the Big New Bill.

Pork. "If you will vote for my bridge-to-nowhere, I will vote for you to get your tuition loans paid off by taxpayers".
Same thing, you need to polish up your comments.

@sonhouse saidSonhouse implies that Trump is not trying to get good deals, which will benefit his country, its citizens, its losers and its winners.
So why does your Lord Trump keep spreading the lie that it HELPS consumers?
He spreads the lie that say tariffs on Chinese goods hurts CHINA.
It HURTS AMERICAN citizens who buy the goods so how does that help ANYTHING?
Who else thinks that Trump is not trying to get deals for the USA? Sonhouse, man, you are getting tiresome.
EDIT: Are you perchance of the Marauder thinking, that you want free stuff, and that you want it Now? Maybe that is our impasse here??

Sorry you have reading comprehension problems.
For instance, do you really think Musk giving Trump near 300 MILLION for his election was a GIFT?
@sonhouse saidHuh? I certainly know a lot of people who think like you do, you need to settle down. Take this forum.....probably 85% of it think like you. RHP pays me a small honorarium to make Forum interesting, ....that is, to present the opposite sides. Guess what....That is not the real me.
What YOU cannot accept is a LOT of people feel just like me.
Actually, I have always agreed with everything you have always said, even that, after a swim meet against women in a women's event, that a guy can watch them undress and cozy up to their shower stalls. I don't believe in touching though, you probably agree with me on that one.
