Trumps twitter account is a written confession.

Dumb fuck. He is going down.

How will Trump voters react when reality hits them in the face like a hammer?

They have been living in La La Land for a couple of years now. When everyone in the Whitehouse is charged and Trump is removed, fake news will no longer work. Denial will no longer work. Blaming Clinton, Obama, Democrats will not work.

I talked to a Trump voter yesterday about Flynn. He said it was no big deal. Trump will be president for 8 years. Reality is going to kick his ass.

If you go by Trumps history, he may attempt to do this.

If the tax cuts get passed Trump will have reached his goal, enriching himself. He and his family will make a fortune off these tax cuts.

Soon Trump will soon realize, if not already, that he cannot survive this investigation. He will lose. During Trumps entire business career he would always fight until he knew he could not win. When that happened he looked for a way out. He would make a deal and take the money and run.

If the tax cuts pass look for Trump to make a deal and resign. Take the money and run.

Watching all the rats turn on each other will be glorious to behold.

Trump demands loyalty from people. He does not earn it. It is a fatal flaw. All the rats will turn on him and each other.

I can't wait to see Damien arrested. When Trumps son in law is charged then will see Trump truly panic.

Cross of Gold speech. 1896. The long tragic history of Trickle Down economics.

The proven wrong belief of trickle down has been around a long time. Here is a quote from the speech.

There are two ideas of government. Those who believe that if you legislate to make the well to do prosperous, that their prosperity will leak through on those below. The democratic idea has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous their prosperity will find its way up and through every class that rests upon it.

People have been proving trickle down does not work for a very long time. We had trickle down in the 1920s which lead to 1929. We had it again in the 1980s, stock market crash. We had it in the 2000s, economic collapse.

This question needs to be answered. If it has been proven not to work time and time again. Why do people still want to do it?
