Using simple logic will tell you that the extra money business will have will have to go somewhere. Thinks will trickle down.

A. The argument assumes that because a certain outcome is merely possible, that outcome will result.

OR

B. The argument fails to account for the fact that the extra money could possibly go somewhere other than to the middle class.

Tough choice...both very good answers.

Just figured I'd help you out there with your reading comprehension issues, bruh.

I think he comprehended it just fine, but he simply knows that it's BS. Kinda like when someone on the right posts a link and you call it fake news, like that. Enjoy his full term and re-election, it's only gonna get better. Do you guys have jobs or actually live in your parent's basement?

Oooh, such clever rhetoric! Where did you attain such skills?

Middle Class Tax Cuts wrote:

It's funny how every big tax cut is touted as a tax cut for the middle class. If they wanted to help the middle class why not just pass a simple tax cut reducing taxes by 10% on those earning between $30k and $150k. You know - the middle class.

Too complicated, I guess. Somehow targeting 90% of the tax reductions for businesses and the rich must be better for the middle class.

Its the trickle down that never trickles anywhere

As expected, no answer.

Wait, so Flynn isn't a crony? Or perhaps you are not aware of the meaning of the word, 'indictment'. Or is it that you are not aware that Flynn has been indicted? Or perhaps just general reading comprehension issues as I suspected the first time.

What was that about 'no answer', bruh?

I have not said there is one...yet. It's coming, brother. Collusion and obstruction of justice are likely end games.

You need to rethink your allegiance to Trump. He is a bad bad person. He has lived his life by doing things that are criminal and daring people to sue him, and then he uses lawyers to defend him. This is not the action of a good person. He's a liar, he's a criminal, and he will face the music. Mueller is coming...tick, tick, tick.

Manafort

Gates

Papadapolous

Flynn

Who is next? Kushner? Trump Jr.? Page? Stone? Sessions?

They always get the smaller fish first. Trump is the big fish, and his day to be charged is coming. Tick, tick, tick.

The biggest cut will be corporate taxes. Hopefully, that will trickle down in the forms of more jobs (less welfare) and higher wages (more income).

Yep - helping the rich and corporations does not translate to helping the taxpayer. The examples are plentiful... remember when the government claimed cutting rates was going to incentivize banks to led more? Never happened, they hoarded cash. Rich people generally do everything they can to keep their wealth, and there are plenty of ways, so to expect them to volunteer their money to others is right-wing insanity. If you want to help the taxpayer, help them directly.

So there are four people with ties to Trump and his campaign that have been indicted or plead guilty to some crime.

If any or all of them have information about Trump colluding with Russia, they could give information to lesson their punishments.

If Trump is innocent, he's fine.

If he's guilty, are all of them going to do time to protect him?

No, they are all sleazy slime balls. They have already shown they will do anything for personal profit. So, it is highly likely one or more will rat out Trump and/or his administration for personal preservation.

You need to take economics 101.

Flagpole, this is one of your best posts ever. The Dahmer analogy is a classic.

I couldn’t have said it better myself.

I appreciate the comment, but don't doubt yourself, brother! I believe you could have said it as well or better.

Hey look, it's all a leftist conspiracy - Flynn works for the Clintons and is lying about Trump to get him impeached! What a great day for America.

Actually, you did say there was a charge. Here's exactly what you said (from your post above):

"3) While Democrats are capable of committing crimes as bad as what is going on with Trump and his cronies, currently there is nothing to show that they have done anything approaching what this administration has been charged with and is under investigation for."

This administration has still been charged with NOTHING. All they're doing is trying to show that the investigation was worthwhile by catching some bad guys doing bad/wrong things. Manafort/Gates from 2012-2014? LOL. Ok. The Greek kid lying? LOL. Ok. Flynn lying after the election? LOL. Ok.

It would help their case immensely if they could provide ANYTHING from 2015-Nov 8 2016 though. And in particular, maybe make it have something to do with COLLUUUUUUSSSSION.

Because of your stubborn stupidty and ego, you're well on your way to your next crash and burn ("Flagpole"). Tick, tick, tick.

1) You are not that interesting, so don't be surprised if I don't respond to you frequently unless you become more interesting. I will respond this time though because I'm in the mood to.

2) I don't post anything in the hopes of making anyone believe I am full of confidence. I don't use smoke and mirrors like other people do, because I am not weak and don't need to do that. I will tell you how things are, and you can choose to believe it or not. I don't care if you think I'm confident or not.

3) "Doubling down" is a stupid term with no real application here, so I reject that I am "doubling down". I am just telling you how things are.

4) I wasn't posting much immediately after the election because a Trump not in trouble isn't interesting. I only post when things are interesting. Things are REALLY interesting now...just as they would be if a Democrat were in office under the same circumstances as Trump. Not sure what you are getting at here, but probably you think I was in hiding. Couldn't be the furthest thing from the truth. My knowledge and opinion about things isn't shaped in any way what those of you here think...the vast majority of the time. Once in a while one of you makes a great point, but those usually strengthen a view I already have. I certainly couldn't care less about any criticism.

5) Manafort, Gates, Papadapolous, Flynn...so far. At a MINIMUM this shows the kinds of people that Trump chose to surround himself with. He said he would get the "best people". Nope.

6) You and other Trumpers like to say we are "a year in" and there is nothing yet. Well, Mueller has been investigating ONLY since May 17, 2017 (that's when he was appointed...he didn't start that very day), so really we're less than 7 months in. And Trump hasn't even been in office for a year yet. Actually quite a lot of movement in such a short period of time. Besides, what is your fascination with time here? Nixon was two years into investigation before he resigned. I would rather we get to the truth, so I don't mind if Mueller is thorough. Maybe Trump will be proven innocent. The longer it takes to show innocence, the bigger 'f*ck you' he can wield to all the doubters. Methinks you want it over because you know the longer it goes on the greater chance there is of getting dirt on this very dirty president.

7) These charges that have come out are not disappointing to me at all. On their own, these are bad actors who are being punished, and that should be cheered by all law-abiding people. Then, it does show Trump's bad judgement to be associated with these people, and finally, it is just showing a very likely pattern of behavior that makes it increasingly more and more difficult to believe that it doesn't reach up to Trump.

8) Mueller is coming to get Trump. Tick, tick, tick.

[linkl]

Let me know if you need any help comprehending the charge against Michael Flynn.

Wow Flagpole, talk about needing the approval of others, albeit filled with lies, innuendos, hearsay, 3rd party fodder, fake news, ...you're one insecure chubby little guy.

What a waste of life to spend that much time trying to get others to agree with you. You liberals support corruption yet point the finger at everyone else. I hope you're not married with a family as you are one sad chubby little guy.

No - he is too dumb and hypnotized to process something this simple. Trump's minions are mostly criminals, but he's clean right...

Ok, guess I did...well, that was clearly in reference to those who were part of the administration who have been charged. Trump himself hasn't been, but it's coming.

You are grasping at straws, brother. Flynn is a big deal. He was the National Security Advisor! He lied to the FBI while in that position. Too many people with Russian ties way too close to the President. Collusion has already been proven with the Don Jr. Russian meeting and his interaction with Wikileaks. Collusion is not a legal term, so it doesn't matter really about collusion. It matters only if it rises to the level of criminality, and I believe it will be shown that it does.

Mueller is coming...tick, tick, tick.

1) Ha!

2) Anyone calling anyone other than Trump and his inner circle Fake News at this point has serious issues with knowing truth from fiction.

3) I do not support corruption in any way. Democrat or Republican, go get the law breakers. Gotta get the most dangerous of the law breakers before going after others though, and the lead up to getting Trump is the correct course. Once that is done, I'm all for charging anyone else who has done wrong.

4) I am married with a family, but not sure why that would bother you so.

5) Mueller is coming...tick, tick, tick.

To clarify the charge against the administration comment a bit further...it is fair to call a charge against Flynn as a "charge against the administration"...he was in the administration, so that should count in this context. If you'd rather, I am fine with saying "former administration officials". Either way, it's bad for the administration, and as someone already said, all these crooks surround the president, but he is clean? Yeah, right.

Collusion has already been shown. Whether it leads to charges is yet to be seen.

The Russia investigation was called "Fake" and a "hoax" by Trump and a "nothing burger" by others, and Trump and others still say there was no collusion.

Facts:

Fake? NO.

Hoax? NO

Nothing burger? NO.

Collusion? YES

Mueller is coming...tick, tick, tick.

Flagpole is RULING this thread with facts and reason. It is awesome to watch your richly deserved comeuppance unfolding. He owns each and every one of you shysters. Heed it. Know it. Accept it. Trump is going down. Tick tick Tick.
