    bull . He won't get a single item through the Repug House that hurts the income of BigCorp/1%.

    Reports show that he has used tons of loopholes to avoid paying taxes. He won't hurt himself.

    iow, Trash is lying.

    So he wants to reduce income taxes, reduce corporate taxes, repeal the estate tax, spend a boatload on infrastructure and the military, all the while magically paying down the debt at the same time. He will pull out of existing trade deals and make great new ones. American factories and mines will magically become more compe ive than those in the developing world, and employ tens of thousands of workers with no automation whatsoever. And while Hillary is the one owned by Wall Street, Comrade Combover is the one who will repeal Dodd-Frank and put a moratorium on regulations.

    He could probably promise a free Rolls-Royce for every American and his supporters would still believe him.

    Former GOP national security officials: Trump would be ‘most reckless’ American president in history

    A group of 50 former national security officials, all of whom have served Republican presidents from Richard M. Nixon to George W. Bush, have signed an open letter calling Donald Trump unqualified to be president and warning that, if elected,

    “he would be the most reckless President in American history.”

    The letter offers a withering critique of the GOP nominee, saying he

    “lacks the character, values and experience” to be president.


    The signatories declare their conviction that

    he would be dangerous “and would put at risk our country’s national security and well-being.”


    They state flatly that none of them intend to vote for Trump in November. Some have decided to vote for Hillary Clinton, while others intend to sit out the election or write in another name,

    Trump’s Speech on Fossil Fuels Was Riddled With Lies and Inaccuracies

    In classic Trump form, not a single policy was ever named during the address, but the sentiment was self-evident: more drilling means more jobs.

    However, point by point, Trump’s promises and allegations about an energy revolution were riddled with inaccuracies and bunk data.

    What he calls an

    “America first energy plan” is no more than a strawman propped up by xenophobia, limited government, and the idealization of a dying coal industry.


    In his speech, Trump proclaimed the following: “The Obama-Clinton war on coal has cost Michigan over 50,000 jobs. Hillary Clinton says her plan will ‘put a lot of coal companies and coal miners out of business.’ We will put our coal miners and steel workers back to work.”

    Several falsehoods in these accusations were brought to light by fact-checkers at theWashington Post and NPR. According to a study published last year in Energy Policy,approximately 50,000 coal industry jobs were lost nationwide between 2008 and 2012. Trump’s data point appears to have been excerpted from a 2011 report issued by the Sierra Club that estimated the hypothetical number of jobs that would have been created in Michigan if a series of coal power plants had not been blocked by environmental regulations.

    In regard to putting coal miners “back to work,” the job destruction that Trump attributed to the Obama administration was more likely a symptom of cheap natural gas supplanting coal.

    This year, the Energy Information Association published data that showed between 2014 and 2015, coal-generated power dropped by 226,000 gigawatt-hours in the US. In its place, natural gas rose by 208,000 gigawatt-hours. And, as Philip Bump pointed out at the Washington Post, more mining jobs were eliminated during the Reagan and Bush administrations than during Obama’s two terms.


    It’s also worth noting that almost all of the “facts” that Trump cited during his address were credited to the Heritage Foundation, a right-wing stink tank whose benefactors include Charles and David Koch.

    According to SourceWatch, the ins ute received more than $6 million in funding from the Koch-owned Claude R. Lambe Foundation, and more than $700,000 from oil company ExxonMobil.


    The Heritage Foundation, with whom Trump is not shy about his affiliation, has been flagged by climate experts as one of the organizations most committed to spreading doubt about climate science. According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, the foundation once said in a report: “The only consensus over the threat of climate change that seems to exist these days is that there is no consensus.”


    On the fossil fuel industry’s ability to stimulate job creation and economic growth, Trump had this to say:


    According to the Ins ute for Energy Research, lifting the restrictions on all sources of American energy will:


    Increase GDP by more than $100 billion dollars annually, add over 500,000 new jobs annually, and increase annual wages by more than $30 billion dollars over the next 7 years;


    Increase federal, state, and local tax revenues by almost $6 trillion dollars over 4 decades;


    Increase total economic activity by more than $20 trillion dollars over the next 40 years.


    What he omitted from these figures (which were attributed to another Koch-funded, anti-climate science organization), however, was the fact that this year, for the first time ever in the US,

    solar energy jobs surpassed those created by the oil and gas industry. There are now more jobs related to solar power than oil, gas, and coal extraction,

    according to the International Renewable Energy Agency.


    Another report, published by the Global Green Growth Ins ute and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization in 2015, found that investments in renewable energy sources yield more jobs per dollar than equal amounts contributed to the fossil fuel industry.


    Today, Trump turned a blind eye to truth that while renewables continue to find their footing, the nation’s declining coal sector is drawing its last breaths. As more homeowners adopt clean energy alternatives, such as installing solar panels on their roofs, the shift away from fossil fuels is palpable. And now, with policy adviser Rep. Kevin Cramer at his side, it’s evident that

    Trump’s energy plan is just pandering to corporate interests.

    So while Trump has sworn to rebuild the nation using “American energy—mined from American sources,” what

    he’s really pledged is to construct is a shaky platform on a dying industry.

    Actually Congress' approval rating was fairly higher when it was establishment only... once you added the teabaggers and pseudo-martyrs like Cruz, it's been going down ever since. And why not? You send people there to try to find solutions, not to do nothing at all.

    Trump’s economic plan shifted from ‘lunacy’ to regular Republican ‘nonsense’

    While Trump promised that his plan — which involved cutting the estate tax, among other proposals — would “those who have the very least,” Reich argued that it actually followed through on the conservative tradition of hiding benefits for the rich inside ostensibly populist rhetoric.

    “Like the benefit for child care: it looks good on the surface, until you actually look at the details, and it’s a big giveaway for the rich,” he argued.


    Reich’s fellow economist, Daily Beast columnist David Cay Johnston, explained that Trump’s promise to deliver “unlimited deductions” for child care expenses also stood to benefit the rich more than the middle class.


    “If you’re rich enough to have three nannies for your kids, when you fly them around on your private jet, you get a tax break,”

    Darrell Issa: Congressman, R-Calif., Reportedly Loses Popularity Due to Support for Donald Trump


    “There are growing signs that veteran Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Vista, could be headed for an election dogfight...The polling and Applegate’s strong June fundraising convinced the DCCC to put Applegate on a watch list of 10 ‘emerging’ Republican districts that could be moved to their tally of targeted GOP seats.”

    Will Delegitimizing A Clinton Presidency Outlast Trump's Campaign?

    Trump's insistence on delegitimizing a Clinton presidency in a generic sense is in some respects a continuation of the GOP congressional strategy of the Obama era.

    “There was an effort not just to vote against everything that Obama and Democrats were for, but to delegitimize the process and and then take advantage of the anger that would result.

    And it worked like a charm in the midterms of 2010 and 2014,” Norman Ornstein, a congressional scholar at the American Enterprise Ins ute, told TPM.

    “A lot of this anger that is being churned up against Clinton is going to be used in the same way.”


    But it's undeniable that Trump goes beyond the dog-whistle intimations of past politicians by specifically suggesting that Clinton could only be elected thanks to a "dishonest machine," or that she should have been ineligible to run in the first place because of what he and his supporters see as her criminal use of a private email server.


    Chants of “lock her up” became the unofficial refrain of the Republican National Convention, with more than a few current or former elected GOP officials egging on attendees in their speeches.

    More recently, Trump has floated the idea that if he loses, it’s because the election is “rigged.”

    Now, Trump is also touting the idea that Clinton could have mental health problems and may not be “all there.”


    “It’s definitely going to set the groundwork, if Hillary wins, for an ongoing, sort of at least simmering question about how she won, whether she should have been in the race,” said John W. Patty, a professor of political science at the University of Chicago.

    “That’s part of the narrative among some of the people chanting ‘lock her up’—it's that they really believe that she got away with a crime."

    http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/trum...+%28TPMNews%29

    Just like the Christian Taliban, the Repugs refuse to recognize any non-Repugs. If you're non-Repug, your legitimacy is denied.

    And it's all emotional appeal, based on anti-science, anti-rationality, anti-education, anti-elite, all pure, primitive emotion, with hate and anger being the primary emotions.

    In fact, Trash is the ideal Repug candidate in his lying, bull attacks, slander, innuendo, "many people are saying ..." .
