@georgetakei Yeah, it's baffling that people keep believing it. I guess there is a lot of truth to the saying that refuting a lie is a lot harder than making the lie.

@georgetakei Not before the mass media stop licking the fascists' boosts and uncritically printing their assertions that the opposite is true.

@georgetakei Absolutely never. In this era, technology has shown us that a large majority of the demos is stupid.
We can accept the damage that they cause by being fiscally stupid.
We can not accept the damage that they cause by being pro-tyranny.

@georgetakei
Mark Twain once commented, and this is a paraphrase, that the easiest thing in the world to do is to fool a man, and the hardest is to convince him he's been fooled.

@georgetakei Trump has a good chance to leave us with a deficit we can no longer borrow for.

@georgetakei
History never lies (unless “revised”)
Republicans shouldn’t be anywhere near the writing of history

@georgetakei Ultimately, the right control the media so the GOP being the pro business side is the lie that gets pushed. By pro business, they mean slashing taxes for businesses, slashing the barriers that stop them out sourcing jobs, letting VC do as they will and allowing mega mergers that are bad for everyone except the biggest shareholders. The investor class gorge themselves bloat like a tick under GOP until the whole thing falls over and needs to be aved by Democrats, who are akways xondembed for not doing more, faster when having to deal with things like obeying the rule of law, supreme court justices striking down every regulation they can and the GOP refusing to do anything but scream, lie and fillibuster, even on republican policies like Obamacare.

@georgetakei
It's like the fiscal stuff is a smokescreen and their real desire is for more bigotry or something

@georgetakei deficit is only one measure of fiscal responsibility. Both parties fail at being fiscally responsible, just in different ways.
