Things Worth Pondering 2

This Democrat presidential candidate proves just how stupid and irresponsible their party is. They ignore facts right in front of them and tell Americans they will overturn all of Trump's policies to save our country, policies that have produced a miraculous economic recovery from the miserable Obama years.  In other words they will return to all the failed Obama policies that almost destroyed the country, and would have if Hillary had won. Quote: "Appearing at a forum hosted by a left-wing political organization and a Democrat-aligned labor union, California Senator and presidential candidate Kamala Harris insisted that the 2017 tax reform law must be repealed in its entirety.  Just in case there was any ambiguity on this point, she repeated her position for a second time."  And,  "Reversing the GOP-passed law would result in a significant tax increase for nearly every middle class family in America.  If many voters are confused or ambivalent on the impact tax reform had on their personal finances --- thanks to the aforementioned deliberate disinformation campaign (read this shot and chaser as an example) -- their minds will focus rather quickly if and when Democrats try to take away the tax cuts they've received, and from which they've benefited.  We've learned over and over again that it's hard to rescind benefits or policy advantages once they've been implemented.  And raising taxes on virtually all middle-income families and earners is politically toxic -- yet that's precisely what Harris is proposing.  Of course, massive tax increases on working Americans is an inevitable consequence of her wildly fantastical agenda.  Republicans should try to get as many Democratic 2020 hopefuls on the record in favor of this idea as possible.  They're walking into a trap set by their own bogus talking points."     https://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2019/04/29/kamala-harris-we-need-to-raise-taxes-on-the-middle-class-n2545507    Ask yourself this question. Does running on a platform that guarantees catastrophe sound like a smart move?  In effect Democrats are telling us they need our money more than we do. They will manage our money better than we do. Just trust them...if you believe that lie, check out the fiscal status of Democrat led cities and states and tell me just how well they manage taxpayer dollars.  And, remember Obama doubled our national debt in just eight years.  All by himself he irresponsibly increased our debt more than the combined efforts of all previous presidents. Now, that is a prime example of gross fiscal irresponsibility. That is just one of his legacies that will place him in the lowest level of presidential rankings once "real" history is written years from now and the damage he inflicted on the nation is measured through the lens of hindsight.    

This offers proof that Democrats believe they can do things that they forbid Republicans from doing. Democrats are irate that Trump says he will not submit to congressional subpoenas.  Mueller has spoken.  Remember when Obama claimed executive privilege in the Fast and Furious fiasco which resulted in the death of a Border Agent and untold deaths in Mexico?  Congressional Republican subpoenas were ignored and AG Eric Holder ended up being the first AG ever held in contempt of Congress. That would be a scandal, right?   Quote: "President Donald Trump has decided to cease cooperating with what he sees, not incorrectly, as a Beltway conspiracy that is out to destroy him. “We’re fighting all the subpoenas,” Trump said Wednesday. “These aren’t, like, impartial people. The Democrats are out to win in 2020.” Thus the Treasury Department just breezed by a deadline from the House Ways and Means Committee to deliver Trump’s tax returns. Thus the White House will invoke executive privilege to deny the House Judiciary Committee access to ex-White House counsel Don McGahn, who spent 30 hours being interrogated by Robert Mueller’s team."    https://www.theamericanconservative.com/buchanan/why-trump-is-right-to-defy-democratic-subpoenas/ 

More evidence of the total lack of ethics that filled the ranks of the Obama administration.   https://rawconservativeopinions.com/2019/04/29/ukraine-tapped-by-obama-admin-to-hurt-trump-help-clinton-and-protect-bidens/   The dishonesty and lack of ethics is evident in way too many politicians but it seems to be an epidemic in the ranks of the Democrat party. This is a reminder that Biden once had to drop out of a previous presidential race because he admitted to plagiarism.  Quote: "2020 Democrat presidential contender Joe Biden is a cheater. The former VP admitted to plagiarism while in law school, which caused him to drop from the 1988 presidential race."   https://flagandcross.com/never-forget-biden-exits-1988-presidential-race-after-admitting-to-plagiarism-in-law-school/    His accumulation of even more unsavory baggage since then will doom his third try and rightly so.  For more reasons read the next item.
