Are we taxed on wealth, or income?

Don, Jr.......someone with the worst judgement of just about anybody, and that's his father saying that.

I would take Barron more seriously. I certainly would take Eric seriously before either and I take Ivanka very seriously.....she's a serious person.

One of the core principles of the MAGA movement was the need to remove money from politics, but it seems this idea has completely gone off the rails, and no one here cares about it.
There is tremendous interest in it. IMO that is where Vance could blaze his trail to the Oval Office. There are numerous threads here about ActBlue, The SPLC, Corrupt Donors, Somali Kickbacks, Foreign Money, etc. All are campaign finance oriented.

Taxes don't cover the bill. It's paid with money printing, which becomes inflation. The bottom pay the inflation.


that's a great point maybe we should reintroduce the concept of paying income taxes back to the middle class our tax base has never been this narrow.

It’s ridiculous. I suppose it was also necessary to take most of the family along. I guess Don, Jr. will stare down the Chinese economic team unless they’re distracted while laughing…


Were you this upset when Biden took crackhead pervert loser Hunter along with him on such trips?

I hold Nvidia stock so it works perfectly fine for me after the news that came out today.

Stop bitching and moaning and get in the game. Complainers are the worst.

look at it this way boy the top 10% of tax filers pay 70% of all income taxes and the top 1% pay 40% of all collected income tax and you pay nothing, you're welcome.

Do you think that for a moment, these CEOs will be in any real serious international discussions with the Chinese?
They're there to show America's unity and seriousness regarding the trade situation with them.
PS-You obviously don't understand international politics very well. Get yourself educated on the subject before going public with an opinion.

How did the left get labeled as the party of the elite again?


They would tell you there are no elite lefties and no billionaires on their side.

The left aren’t elite. To be elite means to be exceptional, they are not.
