Trump’s Swamp is Big, Deep, Wide, and well funded.

Bernard Redinger Please do your research. 2008 ended in the deepest rescission America had ever experienced - largely due to GOP inactivity on regulating banks, insurance companies, and the mortgage industry. January 20th, 2009 Obama took office. You have multiple things going on here: 1. The bottom has dropped out of the American Economy. Tax receipts will be way down. 2. Obama enacts a stimulus and bailout policy - you can legitimately assign debt here to Obama. 3. The Iraq war and Afghanistan war costs continue to pile up in the Trillions of dollars. For the first 2 - 4 years it would not be reasonable to assign these cost to the Obama Administration. However, at some point his administration would need to become responsible for staying or leaving to stop the economic bleeding of trillions of dollars. 4. After the first 4 years I believe you can assign debt occurred from that point forward as Obama debt. Just as you can assign the health of the American economy for the first 2 years 2016 - 2018 to Obama. This is not a Obama vs Trump. This is a Facts based discussion. Please respond accordingly.

Bernard Redinger The answer would be yes, yes, and yes. Because of the Trump tax cuts the number of profitable corporations not having to pay taxes increased 100% from 24 to 48 expected to go up in 2019. Amazon was profitable, paid no taxes, and received $110 million back. Oil & Gas Corps were huge winners, Corp Ag big winners, Banks, and of course Defense Contractors. Yes I know some of these industries have always benefited regardless of Republicans or Democrats in office, but under Trump it has reached a new level. Trump was going to close the Corp & the 1% tax loop holes - campaign promise - and then give a tax cut. He and the Republicans gave the tax cut but closed no loopholes not even the Carried Interest Loophole he campaigned on. In 2018 we had a near 1 trillion dollar deficit - why because we cut taxes on Corporations and the Super Rich. Look at American debt charts vs American Tax Cuts over time starting with Regan. Deficits balloon and tax receipts as tax receipts go down. Bushes Iraq war added about 10 to 11 Trillion to the debt.

Levy Gant I know their won’t be a Trump Foundation. Currently Trump is barred by the State of New York from using his “Charitable Foundation” because all the charity was going to Donald and his kids personal use.

Bernard Redinger Please re read what I posted above - deepest recession ever in American History. I don’t want to get into defending or promoting Obama. But facts are important to me. What you stated is what call a fact with omissions. The entire Wold, minus China experienced the slowest recession recovery - some still haven’t recovered. This is why depth in knowledge is so important. Without context, or selective measure of history, you come to false conclusions. Take for example Obama’s first four years - slowest recovery ever. Take his second four years record unemployment, record stock market, economic growth around 3%, record corporate profits ( without a tax give away) etc... Trump inherited a phenomenal economy. But Trump deserves credit - for not screwing up the economy Obama gave him. If you are interested in this subject I would encourage you to read books on the topic. Look for good, well written, books produced by topic experts in their field. You will be amazed at how even things said here are far more complex than a “Talking Point”.

Bernard Redinger Never ceases to amaze me how Alt Righters always use name calling to defend there positions. I wonder if it is anything in common with men and Small Hands? BTY, you forgot to mention that Hunter Biden also sat on a Ukrainian Energy Board of Directors at $50,000 per month despite having no Energy Credentials. Or you could have mentioned that Rudy Ghouliani (sic) sat on the same board as Hunter despite not having any relevant experience. Or you might have mentioned Jared Kushner’s ties to the Saudi Wealth Fund for loans or Russian Banks with ties to Putin and the GRU. Further, you could have mentioned Jared and Ivanka having paid government jobs “advising” the president - or Jared’s security clearance. Washington DC has been, and still is, a sick place. Unfortunately, Trump has taken this sickness to a new level that is stratospheric in corruption.

Bernard Redinger To your post a say BS. Solid documentary evidence says others wise. I know you don’t read, or listen to, none FAUX or Rush L. Sources so I surest the governments own GAO web site. GAO provides ALL OFFICIAL government statistics. It is unfortunate that your news sources LIED to you but the good news is that it is never to late to learn the truth. Facts Matter, Words Matter, Character Matter, and Morals Matter.

Bernard Redinger Oh BTY, a 1.5 billion dollar Hedge Fund is small as Hedge Funds go - but this does not diminish your original point. However, I do believe that Hedge Fund management income should be treated as regular income and taxed accordingly. Currently Hedge Fund Managers use a loophole to pay far less tax on their salaries. Closing this loophole is a broken promise by Trump in his “famous” tax cut bill. In fact closing any tax loopholes is a broken promise on Trump’s tax bill. I believe Trump said of the tax cut “This is not good for me.”
