Of course not, Republicans spent years spinning that lie. Suddenly his "straight talk" isn't so liked when it matches up with reality.

We were talking about when he was nominated. I'm confused. I believe the moderator said Kennedy was nominated in 88, which is wrong. | ||

How often does he want to repeat that he's a great businessman lol Many of Trumps supporters literally don't care that his numbers never add up or that half of the words out of his mouth are half truths or flat out lies, or that his plans are illegal/nonsensical. | ||

His comfimation took place during an election year. Cruz was wrong because he said it has never happened. People looked it up and it's happened like 16 to times. | ||

"How do you try to save social security and explain the huge gap in your tax plan?" "China; Vietnam; Mexico; America; Great; Jerbs" It's literally just noise with those words thrown in in varying order | ||

Bush is old O&G money, they don't get along with wall street money, something about being resentful of how they don't actually have to create real products. O&G invests heavily in local governments (they have to because they make most of the decisions about what they can and can't do to make money) so they want the decisions made there. Basically, Wall street only needing to buy NY and the Feds is outperforming O&G despite nearly collapsing their own industry. What you see happening is different billionaire puppets arguing over who's billionaire should get a better deal. it's remarkably naked right now. | ||
