Oh good, just what we needed: More Ruling Class B.S.

I blame Harvard.

It’s The Establishments Fault.

Trump warned us about this (Chiner), long ago.

Yes of course.

The higher you tax something (including capital and investment) the less you get from it.

My biggest issue with DT, I perceive him as more of a populist and not so much of a real conservative.

His delightful lack of political correctness is a breath of fresh air, but his populism on such issues should be concerning. I believe in the not too distant past, DT favored single payer health system like they have in Canada, a wealth tax to be charged on privately held assets. He also lavishly contributed to Democrat campaign committees in 2006 which brought in in House Speaker Nancy Pelousy and Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid.

I am suspicious of the Donald for the reason you state. I am waiting and watching. Not against him but just not ready to jump on his bandwagon.

I don’t deny for one moment that there are shenanigans in the market place. There are always have been.

What troubles me, as always, is the proposed and eventually enacted government policy solution.

We certainly had problems with private health insurance coverage. The government solution was Obamacare.

We had some problems with our banking and financial system, the government policy solution was Dodd-Frankenstein.

We had some problems with pollution, the government policy solution was Crap and Trade and a dictatorial EPA.

1 person in all the world markets is causing this. Yep sure.
Do these “experts” ever listen to themselves or are all the other voices in their head drowning out their own comments.

On the plus side, they finally stopped blaming Bush.

Ditto here.

If DT becomes the GOP POTUS nominee, I will support him unconditionally.

But right now I have serious reservations. Biggest issues:

1) Narcissistic, egomaniac, thin skinned personality-—not unlike the current POTUS. It’s all about ME!

2) Past policy positions and numerous political contributions to many many Dems.

3) Closeness to the Clintons.

4) Populism over genuine conservatism

All are issues with me.

But I love his political incorrectness.

The author may have a point. (/s)
Just look how the economy tanked after we elected a Marxist with a class envy problem.
Unemployment was at 5.6% in early November...over 8% by mid January.

I agree with what you’ve said.

I’m not sure if DT’s past populist positions were thought out or just off the cuff attention getters in 2006.

But no one is saying what he’s saying about alien invasion (a/k/a immigration) or the inefficiencies of the government.

On the other hand, I think that some of his “big stick” foreign policy statements about the MidEast, or about China, don’t seem to me to be well thought out.

But, aside from Cruz, I don’t see what choices we have.

Cruz, I think, would be the more responsible and reliable choice between the two.
