Rudy pulled the same maneuver and it didn't work out for him.

They used big words so The Dipshit won't understand enough to get mad at them for it.

They're going to hate women even more because you said this

So the cut that went into effect in '83 was passed in '81, just before a recession hit. So the US seeing an increase in revenue compared to the few years before that where unemployment was up over 8% and gdp dropping, is really more about the economy recovering than tax policy changes.

Stocks are down all over the globe, not sure if you noticed.

You're like 6 levels deep into a thread, being vague like this is completely inscrutable.

I didn't act like it was nothing. It was a band-aid on a gushing artery that further cemented health insurance companies into our lives. It briefly slowled the continually rising costs people continue to struggle with today. But they pretty much called it a day for the next decade and a half-where now those same companies are auto denying 30% of their claims hoping no one fights the ruling. Without the public option Obamacare wasn't the solution we needed. It just kicked the can down the road to our current disaster.

If the goal was actually stalling things, he'd have gotten more mileage not starting it at night, after all the real business had included. Could squeeze an extra half a day of RESISTANCE in there before...checks notes the Democrats help confirm yet another fascist piece of shit appointee into power.

Like I said. It was performative.

You do realize you just admitted to this being an assumption on your part, right? This is YOUR racism projecting onto this whole thing.

The fear of sexual assault that women share is not limited by skin color. They're not feeling at ease walking to their cars in a parking garage just because the man they see is white.

Seriously, do you even talk to women?

Decades? They had the presidency and both halves of Congress for the first two years under Obama and all they gave us was Mitt Romney's health care plan. And again during the first half of Biden's term.

The Democratic leadership keeps actively stopping attempts to corral the ability of congressmen to get rich off inside trading. They spent the whole campaign season last year supporting and assisting in a very public genocide. Trustbusting has basically been forgotten - we only have the illusion of choice in our much each industry from the media to even our food products are dominated by like 3-4 companies within it.

Whenever they do happen to get power, they do nothing with it, and then act surprised when they immediately lose it again.
