16. "republicans wipe the floor with democrats because theyre honest?" In response to In response to 15 Tue Feb-08-22 01:04 PM by Reeq
and authentic?
you really typed that?
the entire republican brand is ivy league educated wealthy white people inventing mechanisms to lie and deceive poor and working class white people to vote for the most extreme oligarchical agenda in the western democratic world.
trump is a silver spoon ivy league educated coastal elite billionaire who inherited hundreds of millions of dollars from his father and stiffed workers his entire life. but white folks felt he 'told it like it is' because he lied in the ways they wanted to hear. while he felt to them like a 'populist' champion for the forgotten/working man...he cut taxes for wealthy people so sharply that...for the 1st time in american history...the wealthiest 400 americans paid a tax rate lower than every other income group.
like even the most racist/nativist right wing parties in europe dont make it their trademark to destroy public education, defund the social safety net programs, espouse trickle down economics, eliminate campaign finance laws, give corporations the same rights as private citizens, etc.
but those are all successful republican mantras with working class whites because they have perfected the art of lying about them.
