Life in the Trump Era, Part 2

[Ma'ake]

You’re missing the point. Trump did not win because not enough people were outraged. The quote from the David French article I linked to pretty much expresses the way I see it. People on the left were calling Mitt Romney a fascist, and Joe Biden was saying Romney would “put y’all back in chains.“ ridiculous hyperbole. And it still going on. Instead of talking about how to make things better, we’re talking about how a perfectly rational tax bill is going to end up killing people. If you cry wolf all the time, your arguments run out of steam.

So, Trump is the real wolf, but it's the Democrats' fault?

About the rationality of the tax bill, we may be finding out sooner than later if that's true. The just passed defense funding appropriations were for ~$715B, where the Trump Administration requested $650B.

"Come on, Laffer Curve. Come on, Lucky Laffer Curve!"

It’s perfectly reasonable to debate the pros and cons of the tax bill. I am not a fan of it myself, and I have said so many times. But at least you’re not saying that poor people will die because of it.

Look, Trump is easy to attack and deserves most of it. I think we’d be better off if people on the left would choose more carefully what to go ballistic about.

Take a look at the French piece. He argues that both parties need to be better at this.
