End, OK, California specific. There was never a deficit under a Democratic administration that the elephants did not hate, nor was there one under an elephantine administration that they did not love. And that specificity really is nationwide. Tax Cuts for the Rich, Tax Hikes for the middle class and poor. Remember Grover Norquist?
The actual quote: "“Reagan proved that deficits don’t matter,” Vice President Dick Cheney said when the Bush administration sought a second round of tax cuts in 2003. This fits with a rich tradition of conservative tax-cutters abandoning deficit hawkery when they want to hand money to favored groups
The elephants LOVE huge budget deficits when they are in office. Quoting Dick Cheney: “Budget deficits don’t matter. We proved that under Reagan” (and I paraphrase). They HATE deficits when Democrats are in office. Wonder why that is?
We all know that the elephants forgave billions in debt during covid, mostly to their millionaire-billionaire backers. Why is student debt so special? We also know that the elephants fear an intelligent and informed electorate. Hmmm, maybe there is a cause and effect here?
Don’t feed the trolls
