I’ve been in an IRS hub. Let’s just say the DMV has the same pool of employees. Same for the social security offices.

And every city. And every urban county. And every organization that relies on government funds for more than 50% of their revenue.

Why does a 3rd party list sway you so much?


because that “3rd part list” contains candidates that would have 1/9 control over 1/3 of the government

that list is the most important issue to me in the election

that 1st list that Trump put out in 2016 is why I voted for him

Trump’s commitment to honor his word and select SCOTUS justices from that list is why the states are in control of abortion laws, and why we still even have a small chance to save this once great country

Congress controls spending. Here is a article that explains it well.

But voting for Trump because he's going to "drain the swamp" after doing nothing but filling it with even more swampy people IS possible?


Nice deflection attempt.

Quick, look over there.

It’s not deflection when we’re discussing pros and cons of the two main candidates for the nomination.

You just don’t like what I posted.

yep

trump wanted to defund PP, NPR, PBS, and many other democrat groups living off our tax dollars.

the rinos refused to do that and told trump to kick rocks.

there are certain things a president can do by himself, defunding programs and/or cutting funds to end them isnt one of them.

this is just a straight up political stunt statement knowing he cant doi it but he will lie about it to get votes. thats what politicians do and they aleways lie.

trump isnt a politician and thats why he only says things he will do or try to do. he wont just say something he has no intention of doing just to get votes

I agree that most Americans are too stupid to understand tax policy.

The IRS was created by law, that is, by Congress. The president cannot just ignore the laws that Congress has passed and do the opposite.


THUS the reason why bills have been introduced to eliminate them.


True. Bills that have to be approved by the Senate then sent to the President to sign. That is a lot of swamp to travel thru.
We need a third political party to disrupt the status quo.
This third party needs to true to the Constitution and for the people.
I know.... dream on!

If that were remotely possible he’d be disposed of before the primary.


Shortly before the end of his term in office, GWB II proposed setting up fully funded IRA's for every American citizen. The cost? $1.5 trillion. I thought it was a great idea, given Joe Biden and his crooked pals in Congress basically stole S/S Trust Fund. I saw this proposal as a payback. But alas, the proposal never gained traction. Instead, the money went to fund the Troubled Asset Relief Program (T.A.R.P.) to bail out the banks and lending institutions.

A course of action necessary due to Bill Clinton's massive giveaway to minorities in the form of grants and/or low-interest loans. Minorities who defaulted on their mortgage loans leaving the lending institutions holding the loans.

IMO this whole house of cards is about to collapse. Medicare is already showing signs of collapse. Huge copays and deductibles make it almost impossible for the elderly on fixed income to get decent medical care.

In the meantime, our pal Joe Biden and his warmongering RINO pals keep pumping billions and billions to fund Ukraine's war against the Ruskies.

Elections have consequences. Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.

What sort of fricking idiot this this nonsense is remotely realistic in the next 10 years at least? This bull shite reminds me of Boys State back in the day. Do we select a president based on hypothetical debating points or based on what one might actually DO?

I wish him success in that endeavor if and when he’s in the position to do so. But he’s also now in a situation wherein it will be a broken promise and irredeemable failure if it doesn’t turn out precisely as you’ve described - IRS no longer in existence in the slightest way.
