Did you notice Washington Post is attacking only Trump in page long articles, but not Walker or Bush or Rubio?
What does that tell us? I am going to laugh very loud each time someone on FR posts that Trump is a democrat. Why the heck every left wing media is attacking Trump if he is really a democrat? They should encourage him to win GOP nomination. Then democrats have a win win situation.
Don’t use any logic ; they like their fantasies.
“See what happens when you speak truth?”
For most politicians, that’s completely unknown territory! ;)
Breitbart seems hard to classify. I saw perfectly good articles on Trump from Breitbart, and then some really horrible ones.
Why don't you share with us how that agenda even resembles Obama.
We would like to hear your thoughts on the matter.
Career politicians in particular.
Senator Sessions is the one exception who comes to mind.
Better bridges, highways, railroads.
China, for instance, would pay for new tariffs.
Trump’s idea to raise federal revenue through tariffs actually is actually how the federal government operated in Thomas Jefferson’s time.
“The rich alone use imported articles, and on these alone the whole taxes of the General Government are levied. … Our revenues liberated by the discharge of the public debt, and its surplus applied to canals, roads, schools, etc., the farmer will see his government supported, his children educated, and the face of his country made a paradise by the contributions of the rich alone, without his being called on to spend a cent from his earnings.” —Thomas Jefferson to Thaddeus Kosciusko, 1811.
H O W E V E R …
While Trump is envisioning the federal government supporting the country’s public infrastructure like Jefferson had, Jefferson had also noted that such federal taxing and spending needs to be established within the framework of the Constitution by proper amendments to the Constitution.
“The great mass of the articles on which impost is paid is foreign luxuries, purchased by those only who are rich enough to afford themselves the use of them. Their patriotism would certainly prefer its continuance and application to the great purposes of the public education, roads, rivers, canals, and such other objects of public improvement as it may be thought proper to add to the constitutional enumeration of federal powers [emphasis added].” —Thomas Jefferson: 6th Annual Message, 1806.
Patriots are ultimately going to have to demand that presidential candidates begin all their campaign “promises” of federal spending programs with the statement, “I will work with Congress to propose a highways amendment to Constitution to the states” for example.
What’s with Michelle Malkin? She is against Trump. What is their main gripe about Trump? They all claim he’s a democrat... that’s not news... more than one has changed parties.
If he’s the nominee, I’ll vote for him.
¿Jeb? Forget it.
The US had no income tax until they got rid of tariffs in the early 20th century. About the same time as the establishment of the Fed.
The only way you could expose a WP correspondent and something other than I suspected is to prove he is a patriotic, heterosexual, non-moonbat American.
Every site on Earth has an agenda.
Bingo!
If anyone is “Because I said so” is the Washington Post’s cuddle-puppy Obama.
And Trump may make a few mistakes - you know what, I can wait for him to admit it and change his policies!
Since they are here illegally any wealth that they have amassed is ill gotten gains, just confiscate it and deport them. Those that want to keep their stuff will leave. then camp out at the voting booths, those that can't speak English are most likely illegal. Opens lots of jobs for the EBT crowd, take 'em off welfare and put 'em to work building that fence to protect their jobs.
The same could be said for newspapers and broadcast news before the "Progressives" took over the schools of journalism. You would choose your papers because of their agenda. I used to really like The Evening Star from D.C. mainly because they carried Pogo. I was a bit younger then. Dad and Mom would read me the funnies on Sunday mornings as I sat between them in their bed. The 50s were great.
Are you reacting to the title or have you actually read the article? A little info is a dangerous thing.....
nothing says limited government and the Constitution like a massive government building project.
Shovel ready anyone?
Easy to classify: balanced and accurate....because there are some perfectly good things about Trump, and some damned troubling ones (from conservative perspective). I would say Breitbart is the only place where that balance has been achieved, and FTR, it's on balance about 10 to 1 positive. I'm sure I authored one you think is really horrible, even though my lead was all positive.
