So...Trump wants Republicans to raise taxes?

On a related note - thousands of FReepers will now begin embracing the writings of Paul Krugman, and quoting Thomas Piketty with abandon.

Walker let it get to a point where he had to raise taxes or stop a lot of work and let it get so bad.

And those same Freepers will be backing gun control, supporting Hillary, and deciding single payer is a neato idea

That’s my take away. Walker’s bad because work needed to be done and he didn’t raise taxes to do it.

Shouldn't be too surprising considering Trump proposed the largest tax increase in human history not that long ago.

Walker took on government labor unions in their place of origin and beat them. Wisconsin is actually doing quite well and whole heck of a lot better than it was.

On a related note - thousands of FReepers will now begin embracing the writings of Paul Krugman, and quoting Thomas Piketty with abandon.

Trumpsters see in Trump whatever they want to see. It's populism mixed in with a cult of personality. Trump has been out yammering on about rebuilding infrastructure. We just did that with the stimulus and conservatives considered it socialist nonsense, now that Trump proposes it many apparently approve.

Like I said, Trumpsters see in Trump what they want to see - not what is there. They will support almost anything he proposes simply because they think they know where his heart is and that he is "one of them".
