they have a macro financial game plan down, so they win either way.
If they lose the election, they are so rich they just ride out the 4 years pampering themselves like they do everyday, on the money thy made under the last gop president. Pres Obama had to put bushes war bill into the budget bc, it was funded OFF the books by borrowing, to not impact gop rank and file. Then they scream about dem "spending' like WE ran up the bill. The butchers bill did go up under Pres Obama, but, it wasn't a vast increase in spending on the 99%. It wasn't "socialistic", spending (their term), It was paying for the bush years.
ps..Red don isnt the rarity, he's the rule in the upper classes. This is how they behave. Privatize the profit, socialize the loss.(they really do love socialism.) this is the kind of people we create by allowing them to harvest the economy for a small group of people. They aren't better people for it. They are worse. By and large, trump like behavior and worse is the family life of a vast percentage of the 1%. (And no, I don't have a statistic, just eyeball knowledge.)
Repubs run up the bill and corporate right wing media (All of it), utters not a word, lots of other stuff to talk about. Throw out a bunch of stuff everyday, that they want you to hook in to, bc it effects OUR bottom line. A little micro aggression delivered to each of us, that aren't so rich that we can absorb fluctuations in our monthly bills. Without a certain amount of angina, or plain going without.
We are subliminally terrorized by these things that could all be fixed. ALL BE fixed, if the 1% paid 10% more taxes, and corporations paid more than their employees.
CEO pay is out of control, corporate trustees think absolutely no action is out of bounds bc the goal is to make money. Even illegal stuff. Ugh. Corporations, and the gop, are a license to steal, and never go to jail.
