Exactly.

Not true.

His peak was Inauguration Day.

With a few hills and valleys in between it’s been down hill since.

Libs will continue with the “all free today” routine. They will catch some with child-like minds and the gullible.

Leftwing populism is all based on the redistribution of wealth and destroying the rich which is what makes it so very dangerous to the stability of the civil society.

Right wing populism is based on equal opportunity rather than equal outcomes which is what makes it so very dangerous to the left.

I’m so happy that you care so much about the rich! They’re absolutely going to get DESTROYED if they get taxed at a slightly higher rate! Rich people make society stable, not the worthless plebs of society!

By the way, do you believe that the tax cut isn’t a form of wealth redistribution?

Both sides are based on declining prospects for the average American worker.

Left wing populism is based on remedying this by providing single payer health care and low to no cost higher education.

Right wing populism is based on a profound misunderstanding of global economics and a tinge of good ole fashioned racism.

I truly feel bad for right wing populists because their best outcome appears to be jobs in coal mining and auto manufacturing. It would suck to be so riled up by politics only to be thrown under the bus again and again by billionaires who only use you for your vote. At least left wing populists will be able to get sick and not go bankrupt if they get what they want, even if they have to be PC about it.

Speaking of redistribution of wealth, we had a big discussion on the situation in Alaska with the oil companies. Didn’t see you chime in on that one. What’s your opinion on that?

AngraMainyu · 2018-10-16T14:23:24.170Z

Nah. I’ll admit us commies will gulag all of you worshippers of inequity, but an important component of progressivism is to equalize the playing field so there is actual competition. You might have a point about their rhetoric concerning Wallstreet vs Mainstreet bailouts.

If the dems lose the mid terms, I wonder if they will shed some of their old failed leadership. Bernie may take it if dems don’t take the house.

Try reading what you are responding to.

his current approval numbers are now higher than when he was elected.

WildRose · 2018-10-19T09:14:59.476Z

Hillary lost.

What a steaming pile of gibberish.

The primary goal is the redistribution of wealth from those whose who earned it to those who haven’t to equalize outcomes not opportunity.

biggestal99 · 2018-10-19T11:37:15.887Z

That,s a lie.

Look at the Rasmussen chart and get back to me.

Yes it absolutely is and it’s ridiculous to claim otherwise.

Right wing populism is all based on the redistribution of wealth and destroying the middle class which is what makes it so very dangerous to the stability of the civil society.

Left wing populism is based on equal opportunity for all, regardless of where you were born or who your parents are.

About as ridiculous as the claim that right wing populism seeks to equalize opportunity. Absolute ■■■■■■■■■
