Trump Policies vs. Harris Policies

[Mik]

They will blithely ignore any past position that contradicts their current position.

[Jolly]

And most of the American public, who do not pay attention until past Labor Day, will never know the difference.

Now here’s a real policy with impact:

President changing interest rates.

He's not the only President who has wished that.

[xenon]

Wishes and policy proposals are very different.

Whoopee. I don't think it will happen. And it ain't like it hasn't been tried before. Get over your TDS, Trump is just spitballing.

So there are no policies at all.

Which leaves us with nothing but virtue.

Mr. Trump will win easily.

[Jolly]

Yes, Ms. Harris lost her virtue a long time ago...

I didn't even comment on it. I just said it'd be a policy with massive impact - dwarfing most of the other stuff candidates drone on about.

Maybe it's your TDS that's showing...

Since she's co-opting many of his policies as her own, maybe they need to relick their calf.

From noted socialist, Goldman Sachs.

What policies that Harris proposes is Goldman Sachs saying are good for the economy?

Or is it simply that Orange Man Trumps polices are bad?

[LuFins Dad]

I know that Goldman Sachs paid back the US Government for their bailout, but what about Buffet? Does he still have a lot of money in them, or has he sold off and pocketed another couple of billion?

Still this is valuable information coming from a company that does not have a long history of exaggerating data and manipulating stocks and prices for their own profit.

They clearly don't like tariffs, so a lack of those would be good.

Did they work last time?

[xenon]

Hard to say if they worked. Anti-trade sentiment is pretty high. Trump drove a lot of that, so did the covid supply chain disruptions.

On the other hand, they're inflationary - so didn't help on the prices front. Probably not a huge driver though.

THat's one. I suppose you could say not imposing new tariffs is a policy.

You know, I bet there are several folks in the ME today, that wished they controlled their own supply chain for pagers.

BTW, a thought...Wonder what some bad folks could do to American leader's cell phones? Malware, spyware or boom-ware?
