I didn’t vote for Trump the first time. I voted Third Party. I voted for him this time and had no second thought about it. He didn’t do a bad job of campaigning at all. He had HUGE turnouts to his campaign stops (Biden did not), record turnout, historic number of Hispanics and blacks voted GOP... You’re wrong. Democrats were on the take and dishonestly painting Trump ouT to be Hitler, KKK. Sadly, that’s all liberals need to hear and think to win their votes. Lemmings. frick em.

Don’t buy into that gaslighting.

1. Make Trump’s tweets seem mean.
2. Say Suburban women don’t like mean tweets.
3. Say Suburban women won’t vote for a mean tweeter.
4. Steal election.
5. Say it’s because Suburban women voted for a dementia upped pedo.
6. ??????????
7. frick up a great nation.

Im against the tax raises, but this statement makes no sense. It's a raise mostly on corporate rates for infrastructure.
No. Your statement makes no sense.

Where do businesses primarily get the money to pay corporate taxes?

An increase in corporate tax rates is a tax increase on everybody.

ETA: The corporate tax rate should be zero.

Our infrastructure projects would be far more cost effective if they could be done without all the studies, litigation, etc.

China gets a ton of huge projects done. We waste way too much time and money getting ready.

I agree that our infrastructure is world-class and needs no updates whatsoever

Our infrastructure has been deteriorating for decades. The guy that has been in office for decades will fix it.

The government that ignored maintenance and upkeep is now going to save us!

I don't think people understand just how brutal this is going to be. Companies don't just eat that 7%. Lot of jobs are about to vanish overnight.


I'm not a fan of corporate taxes in any capacity, but the reality is, even at 28% they are still less than they were just a few years ago (most corps paid effectively 35%).

Can you say with any certainty that after the rates were cut to 21%, we had a bunch of job increases or pay raises?

While I agree with your points here, it is worth noting that their husbands are voting the same way. I'm a "suburban wine mom" and the only Democrat I've ever cast a ballot for was Kip Holden.

What we're witnessing is a softening of Americans, in general. They don't want freedom, because that has turned out to be kind of hard. They want to be taken care of, men included.

It was only the hottest job economy since they've been tracking statistics.

We did at my company. We increased our employment by 10%, and year end bonuses were up after the tax cuts. I doubt we have to lose any employees, but they can expect a decent chunk of their year end bonus to be missing

Meh, I've heard from enough women - in the south, no less - who voted for Biden because Trump was mean.

Women vote their feelings no matter where they are. It's why our wiser forefathers saw fit to keep them out of it. It's been downhill since the 19th.

I didn’t ever get ahead till I was able to get off Obamacare plans and Trump’s tax cuts kicked in. My company increased its workforce 20% and I got more in bonuses than ever before.

My story is anecdotal, but Trump’s presidency was really good to me and I didn’t vote for him in 2016.
