Geron is right. Trump is not a conservative. He has really never been very conservative. I like him but certainly not going to vote for him for the nomination. Not many conservatives will.
Pack of thieves....lol..... I am loving it. Club for Growth ain’t all bad but they basically are hyper-libertarian propagandists for Chamber of Commerce type policies such as free trade über alles and open borders and anchor babies.
TRANSLATION:
Trump is saying I don’t need your money so FOAD
mega-dittos!!
You are right! Trump is better than conservative and beyond conservative. At least the versions of conservative you have in mind.
Yeah our great Free Trade deals had done wonders for the US. /sarc
They are a pack of thieves.
They want to ship American industries overseas, depriving Americans of jobs. But they still want Americans to buy the products made overseas until our wealth runs out. They care more about lining their pockets with a temporary profit than about America.
All said better than I could say it.
Club for growth forgot Free trade has not been Fair trade to the 94 million fellow Americans out of the workforce.
If we don’t get them back paying taxes soon we won’t have an economy, just debt.
You are a dinosaur. Most freepers are against the current loser version of free trade which has us piling up annual trade deficits. Free trade has made China, Korea and Japan great and they don't have open borders either.
Damn straight I am a native American and a nativist too!!!
“Do we want to go back to the 1950’s”
God, yes, I do!!!
Trump is starting to remind me of Clint Eastwood and Steven Seagal movie characters rolled into one.
The CFG has certainly done a lot for conservatives.
Why they endorse the likes of Rubio, Paul and Bush this year (along with Cruz and Walker) is beyond me.
I have no reference for this one, I've not heard this accusation before. Is it true? It would be very disappointing if the Club for Growth were throwing out wild, baseless accusations.
but they DO have $300-$500 million to spend on attack ads against Trump in the PRIMARIES.LOL! that's Trump change and in comparison he'll spend next to nothing.
But go ahead. Spend all of your money telling the people how much better off they are when Ford, GM, Nabisco, GM etc., etc. leave the country...Of course we all know you could never be that honest...That's why you have to use (your words) "attack ads".
Other than you're all dishonest frauds, is there some reason you have to resort to "attack ads" and not use the merits of your so called "free trade" to discredit Trump?.
Of course Congress can levy duties on imported goods. In fact, Thomas efferson had written that the federal government had originally raised all of its revenues through import tariffs.
“The rich alone use imported articles, and on these alone the whole taxes of the General Government are levied [emphasis added]. … 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.
But based on the Supreme Court’s early clarification of Congress’s limited power to appropriate taxes, the flip side of the coin is that the corrupt federal government has no constitutional authority to tax and spend for nearly all of the social spending programs that it has established over the last 70+ years imo. This is because the states (asleep at the wheel) have never amended the Constitution to grant Congress the specific powers to tax and spend for such programs.
I think that all citizens, including wealthy people, who paid taxes after the 16th Amendment was ratified were clueless that the Supreme Court had clarified limits on Congress’s power to raise revenue.
The reason that the federal government is now regularly establishing unconstitutional taxes is because the corrupt, post-17th Amendment Senate is not doing its job to protect the states as the Founding States had intended for it to do by not killing unconstitutional House appropriations bills, bills which the House cannot justify under Congress’s constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers. Such bills have effectively stolen not only 10th Amendment-protected state powers, but also state revenues associated with those powers.
So even if Trump raises import taxes for products that USA manufacturers make with foreign labor, if Trump leads the states to grow some and put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes, taxes that corrupt Congress cannot justify under its Section 8-limited powers, then the overall effect for such manufarturers may be lower taxes regardless of Trump’s higher import tariffs.
Nope. Are you familiar with the American government and legal system?
They have been selling out America for a long time...way before Bush.
Clinton was big into shipping out US industry with the idea that we should not be so rich (greedy) and transfer our industry (wealth) to third world nations like Mexico, China and India. Since Clinton no President has lifted a finger to protect American workers and industry. I think it was a globalist plan. Clinton is the one who began it as far as I can tell.
He also worked with Rubin to give loans to people who could not afford them. It was Clinton’s “housing program.” Bush allowed it to go on even knowing it was going to inflate prices of houses and crash the real estate market. The banks went along because they saw profit in the scheme are crooked and lefty globalists. Clinton began the process by threatening to sue the banksters for civil rights violations (red lining poor neighborhoods, omitting them from home ownership.)
You know how that turned out for the middle class whose biggest asset was their homes and they also were tricked by the falsely inflated house values to take out second loans on their pot of fake gold and the bank crash.
The globalist organizers/leaders are leftists(except for protecting and growing their own wealth) plus it has been the Americans who have fouled out their effort to progress the NWO - UN government over all “states” and their resources, of the globe. So they want to bring down America. The middle class was the biggest blockade so they want to dissolve the middle class and fill our nation with third worlders who don’t know squat about what they are up to. A bunch of gimme girls.
Surely you were speaking to the metaphorical "them", and not me.
Amen legs to die for
Or the dream car of every red-blooded teenage boy - a ‘57 Chevy convertible or hardtop, two-tone red & white, V-8 and stick shift. Arguably, the best car GM ever built.
BTW, had to order the radio and heater as an option.
Naw...It better technology that allow vehicles to be better...The shareholders are giggling all the way to the bank every time a new vehicle is sold...
American produced Japanese autos did cost far less to make than American made due to Union and Management wages and benefits...However, the cost of the vehicles was the same as the American made...
And now, with the union wages and benefits greatly decreased did the cost of the vehicles decrease??? Of course not...They are robbing us more now than they ever were...
So taking jobs away from Americans is good for America, eh???
Nope...I'm sticking with Trump to fight you globalists all in it for the mighty buck...
This may be one of the Trumpsters first fails with the readers on FR
We are so stinkin' far in debt because of you unfair (free) traders our grandkids will never get out of debt...
You have free traded so much of our industry out of the country we'll never be able to build up our military without the help of our enemies...
Trump is right on the money with this one as well...
Nonsense...Where do you guys come up with this stuff??? Quality control is a management function...Nothing goes from one work station to the next without being inspected by management...
It is my experience that people, union and non union take pride in their work...It is management that is always trying to cut corners trying to save a buck every where they can...
