  1. You literally don’t know what you’re talking about at all. The WW II wartime economy was the most heavily regulated in the nation’s history. The Federal government controlled production, price, and distribution of virtually everything. People needed ration coupons to purchase gasoline and most food products. This was all managed by FDR at the Federal level. Free market. Geez.
  2. What you’re saying is nonsense. FDR lead the nation through WW II. So you point to one General and claim he was responsible for the victory; even though Ike had nothing to do with operations in Asia… so you give credit to Australia for beating Japan. The TRUTH about WW II is that the America First Republicans did all they could to prevent FDR from preparing America for a war he knew was inevitable. That’s where the GOP was. But when war came, FDR got us mobilized almost instantly. And we won because we vastly out-manufactured the enemy.
  3. Biden will hit a 1 Trillion deficit in 2022? I don’t know how to not call you stupid when I point out that Trump passed two deficits of 3 Trillion… but maybe, just maybe the simple fact that “three is bigger than one” can somehow permeate that thick MAGA skull of yours! Following the table YOU provided, the annual deficit was the highest in US history for each year of Trump’s presidency. Biden cut the deficit by 2/3 in his first year, something the MAGA Loser Criminal did not do. So… FYI… Everybody here can see that you’re just an IDIOT for going down this path.
  4. Consumption taxes themselves are regressive. It’s great for the wealthy. We’ve had a progressive taxation system and we should keep it.
  5. I agree with you. You admit that Trump created sky-high deficits. And you admit that deficits will “destroy America.” Therefore, you agree that Trump destroyed America and re-electing Trump would further destroy America.
  6. Electric cars get charged mostly at night, when there is a surplus of electric power available. The brownouts occur during the day, when air conditioning units create a massive spike of electric use. Electric cars don’t put a strain on the electric grid.
  7. According to Treasury.gov, you are full of crap. The deficit went way WAY up under Trump, every single year, and WAY down under Biden. Doesn’t it bug you the slightest bit that your political thinking is built upon easily disprovable lies? If your concern is deficit spending, it’s very easy to look at the US Treasury and see which Presidents increased deficit spending and which Presidents decreased it. And the Presidents who increased deficit spending the most since WW II were Reagan, Bush II and Trump. Here’s what I think: You could just look it up, and say, “Huh, that’s interesting. I didn’t know that.” But you won’t. Cause you’re MAGA, and everybody knows that MAGA is all about being full of crap and lying every chance you get. So the truth doesn’t matter, you’ll just brush off the facts and continue with your idiotic, moronic thinking that reducing the deficit is important and that we need a Republican President to reduce the deficit, even though facts prove that Republicans increase deficits the most, by far.
  8. MAGA President clocked up a massive massive all-time high deficit.
  9. If you have something intelligent to say, you don’t need to resort to the third-grader playground insults.
  10. None of those nations dropped a single bomb on Japan. The USSR didn’t engage Japan in conflict, and Burma & China had been invaded by Japan for the duration of the war. Australia kicked some ass for sure, and it is respected, but they reported to US command in the Pacific Theater. And that’s the real point: FDR was a master at mobilizing US industry for the war. The scope of the mobilization and the vastness of the manufacturing was unprecedented. No American leader ever came close to the urgency and the energy that FDR out into place. It was absolutely incredible.
  11. So which is it? FDR good or FDR bad? Eisenhower was far from the only reason why America won WW II. Unlike you, I give credit where it’s due, but Eisenhower didn’t win it himself. For one thing, America’s involvement in Japan was at least as large and we won that single-handed.
  12. What a bunch of crap. After that piece of crap Donald Trump, don’t tell us who started insulting and who started a “war.” That dumbass said that windmills cause cancer, and your people elected him leader of the free world. “Liberals want to destroy America”. We hear that stupidity all the time. Why? Because the mega-rich got Fox News to be their mouthpiece and con the poor into thinking that helping the rich would help the poor. And the result is the greatest gap between rich and poor in our nation’s history, massive, global environmental destruction that’s baking the South, ravaging Florida with tornados and the West with wildfires, outsourcing of millions of jobs to China, destruction of nearly every labor union, erosion of public education so severely that students graduate with debt equal to the cost of a house, and a fascist leader who insulted every person he meets and tried to overthrow the government. You say liberalism is a failure? We had liberalism. We had FDR, and he lead us to victory in WW II in just four years. Compared to that idiot Texan LBJ, Nixon and Bush II, FDR knew how to fight and win a war. And he lead us out of depression, built nationwide infrastructure, created worker’s retirement, and a lasting legacy of middle class prosperity. Liberalism is proven to work, and what destroyed it in America was the racism of Southern Democrats, who couldn’t stand the fact that the Federal government brought an end to Jim Crow. That’s why the South switched Republican and why they stay that way.
  13. Okay, but I thought the Mod closed the thread on this.
  14. I like Canadian truth and reason, like National Healthcare.
  15. You’re a bald-faced liar. Either that, or you’re so stupid that you believe whatever the Republican politicians and Fox News tell you without learning any facts. The FACTS are published by the United States Treasury, at the Treasury.gov website. Take a look. I realize this is extremely dangerous or you, but… you may actually learn something, believe it or not! What you will learn is that deficits go DOWN when Democrats are in the White House, and deficits go UP when Republicans are in the White House. Reagan, who promised to eliminate deficit spending, spent like a drunken sailor. And Bush II spent like mad as well, but none of them come anywhere close to Trump, who increased deficits every year and then had by far the largest spending splurge in his past year. Biden has substantially reduced deficit spending since then and will continue to this year. DEFICITS ARE CAUSED BY REPUBLICANS. https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/national-deficit/#deficit-by-year Remember: A President has no impact on the deficit his first year in office: That year’s budget was already signed by his predecessor. So we see Bush II spiked the deficit, which Obama reduced every year in office, and Trump increased every year in office. These are facts.
  16. It’s their own fault for being too damn stupid to report back that the cost is $5 a page, payable in advance, minimum 2,000 pages.
  17. I know, it’s hard to keep all of Trump’s crimes straight. The thirty subpoenas are related to Trump’s attempt to illegally overthrow the last election, not to his illegal handling of classified information.
  18. Let me prepare you: Hillary Clinton received over three million more votes than Trump, and Joe Biden beat his ass by over seven million votes. Donald Trump is unpopular. Among Republicans, only 40% want him to run for President in 2024. Democrats are spending ALL of their money in the primaries promoting Trump-friendly Republicans, believing they’ll be easier to defeat in November. And there is a very likely possibility that Trump will be convicted of multiple crimes long before 2024.
  19. Theft? Whst do you call it when somebody takes something that does not belong to them?
  20. “Trump will be vindicated” ”Your honor, he had stolen US Classified documents in his desk drawer, which is a violation of several Federal laws, including the Espionage Act and the Atomic Energy Act.”
  21. But I thought Trump promised to appoint only the very best. What is the problem with Wray? 1) He’s prosecuting Trump for something that is not illegal, or 2) He’s prosecuting Trump instead of other people? I think your problem is #2, isn’t it?
  22. Are you saying that Trump’s own court filings are propaganda? No… I get it. Like all Trump supporters, the only questions we can ask are rhetorical. You can’t answer questions because that would take skills such as reading and thinking. You’re just too stupid to read Trump’s own written legal defense and understand it. Anything more than 200 characters, and your comprehension fails.
  23. What about Trump stealing classified and highly classified documents from the Federal government? He should go to jail for that, right?
  24. Why did Trump appoint a “Libbie stooge” to lead the FBI? After all, the current Director of the FBI was appointed by Donald Trump. The current investigation into Trump’s theft of highly classified information has nothing to do with who’s in Congress.
