Reading today’s Washington Post, it sounds like some cracks in the GOP facade my be appearing among the farm belt senators. Their constitutes are starting to howl about the financial hurt the tariff king is inflicting on them. Running for re-elections may be getting a little dicy if they have to defend Tiny’s trade and foreign policy.
Oh, there’s already enough for an impeachment investigation. It’s right there in the Mueller report. If you don’t see it, you’re not looking. But that’s not all, folks…..
The “wages up” part of that headline is a little bit true, for some (high wage) workers. There are, in fact more workers. That’s nice, but not as nice as if the new jobs had big wages. The “booming” economy looks awful brittle to me, not to mention that high stock prices don’t do a damn thing to help 90% of us.
Who’s getting richER as a result of the BOOMING economy (in anticipation of a classicly DISTRACTING war, e.g., with Iran)?
When the sly GOP Leadershit tax scams EXPIRE for the 99% in a few years, the scraps of wealth we in the middle and lower classes have managed to claw from this so-called booming economy (gigs, non-career careers, house-of-cards, etc.) will dissipate, like the air slowly leaking from party balloons as the night wears on.
If we’re not part of the 1%, our collective future will comprise flat, limp balloons at the whim of the world’s most cynical, nativist, mendacious, ruthless, authoritarian, dystopian, and despotic corpocracy, far beyond the imaginations of mankind’s most pessimistic Cassandras.
The Trump economy is based of Borrowing $2 Trillion dollars per year. That’s $6,300 per person or $15200 per household. You don’t have to worry about it… If you don’t have children.
Yes, true, this toon is stupid. There wouldn’t need to be all this drama if Trump did as other presidents did and give up his records. You Trump sheep would be clawing your eyes out with rage if a democrat just THOUGHT about pulling this BS. And it isn’t a matter of “finding something to pin on him,” dummies, we already know he is a crook. So save the crap and open your eyes.
We have to remember that the “followers” are motivated by the Prime Directive: “Any Republican is better than any Democrat”. It follows that the followers of Jesus – who mainly believe that they are the one true religion (unlike all the other True Religions) would become the followers of the One True Political Religion. This agenda has been going on for decades – finally brought to culmination by the the Southern Strategy, Joe Six-Pack, “your ideas are as good as any Democrats”. Remember them? Then the “ideas and opinions” became facts. Sound familiar – get out your catechism, your Sunday School bible. Don’t forget God/Jesus DIDN"T WRITE ANYTHING DOWN . The Ten Commandments were brought by Moses who spoke to God( sure) on our behalf. Just like Mitch, Robertson, Falwell, and all the other true prophets. – Now… give me 10% of all you own. I’ve brought you the truth.
When it all falls apart they will blame someone else. The president, regardless of party, only has limited impact on the economy. Rump will take the credit and shift the blame.
Ariall… you’ve missed the whole point. Your cartoon should have the Democrats holding “hearings” on Russiagate. The Democrats don’t have to DIG up anything…. all WE the PEOPLE and the Democrats need to do is peel THE BLANKET REDACTION from the Mueller investigation, and let the cockroaches (GOP) scatter. Already, a judge has ordered Billy “BOY” Barr to un-redact the Mueller report on ALL sections on disgraced General Flynn.

Dig up?… Republicans are definitely trying to bury it alright, but its in plain sight now.
