Economics Of The Election

[steve dave]

Good listen from my boy Down Town Josh Brown and guests. Goes over the economic and tax impacts and what you should do now if you believe Trump, Biden, or Trump refusing to leave occurs. Also Biden's tax and economic plan and the overall impact. Also ends with laughing at NKLA and some other stuff.

Also Goldman's take on a Biden tax plan which talks big sense imo

Trump not leaving isn’t really a thing right?  I assume that would be a one way ticket to the gulag. He is dumb but not that dumb.

I think Pelosi is going to slam something home because of this very thing. Maybe I'm too optimistic. Trump will definitely burn down the place on his way out though which will be grizzley bad. Markets went gangbusters on the Biden widening his lead news based on just not wanting a contested election and at some point even Trump will have to accept defeat (maybe). I don't think this is considered in that though.

[Kat Kid]

I agree that Pelosi wants to get something done despite her public facing statements playing hardball, I also think Mnuchin and Trump would like to send out some checks, I don't think Meadows or McConnell/Senate R's want to get anything done though so that seems like a pretty big set of road blocks.

Trump did tweet out something about getting the deal done, but I don't think he has that strong a commitment to it, while McConnell/Meadows/Senate R's all have a pretty strong commitment to not doing anything.

it is almost like Trump not actually being a conservative is causing frictions within his party...

You guys keep saying this... But it's not true at all.  He is the definition of conservative now.

[CHONGS]

In fact Trump has advanced conservative causes further than any other president in my lifetime (or likely any other poster's lifetime).  He's been incredibly successful.

tax cuts may be temporary, but judges are for a generation.

Reagan's tax cuts are responsible for the continually growing economic inequality we have now. And that won't be ending anytime soon.

I find it hard to understand what conservatism is now.

it's suddenly very fluid for a lot of "conservatives"

It's because it is. All the "norms" Reagan established are either bastardized or taken to non logical conclusions.

It all boils down to pissing off the libs. That is it. When your entire goal is to do that, that makes you a conservative.

Even if it means dropping free economic policies, trying to establish protectionist trade, undercutting your religious beliefs by basically putting into power a guy who is the antithesis of everything you stand for (which I am fine with in the sense of I forever will get to laugh at evangelicals for this), and treating the poor and immigrants like doormats. Just like Jesus told them to *insert nonexistent Bible verse*

he is definitely taking hostages, but I do kind of wonder if he thinks he will win.
