IMO, part of the reason Cruz abruptly dropped out yesterday was to flush this sort of liberal idiocy out of Trump as soon as possible, and before the convention. Trump’s initial instincts on virtually every issue seem to be almost completely in line with the north east liberal democrat orthodoxy.
“You have to have something that you can live on.” Since when does how much a job pays depend on what some politician thinks people need to “live on”? Raising the minimum wage will only accelerate the pace of automation and deny jobs to the very people liberals think they are helping. We are so screwed.
It also drives inflation. If they can't seize your retirement savings outright, they'll just suck the value out of them with a printing press.
Oh no, it’s going to be yuge. Trump told us he would make America great again. And this is just him talking trying to get votes from “the other side”. See, before he was telling the truth and is absolutely conservative, because you know, a federal minimum wage is one of those core conservative values...depending what you mean by conservative today.
Hilarious reading all the excuses from the supporters as to why Trump is now willing to look at raising the federal minimum wage and why it’s such a fabulous idea now.
