I think Trump will wear the impeachments as a badge of honor, and a symbol of what the political elites in the swamp do to the middle class. It is a great opener, to talk about the impeachments, and what they really meant, and use that to rally a crowd.
Trump will still attack the elites, even though he is one with bags of money. He is the only one that represents the flyover country. Nobody else does. Not Republican, and especially not Democrat.
But, people are moving, socialism creeps in more and more.
Democrats are now far-left or shut up.
And there's a couple of years for the Dem's to get away with whatever they want, and that's a couple of years to plan, and to build. Maybe. Certainly will be entertaining to see what Trump does.wrote on 28 Jan 2021, 03:09 last edited by@rainman said in Office of The Former President:

At some point, you run out of other people's money. I don't buy into MMT. I don't think socialism can work.
And I think that as Joe taxes and tanks the 401k market, he's going to run into a political buzzsaw.

Posted the link in another forum thread, but fits here too.
QUOTE
Eight years and one economic disaster later, America took a hard left turn and elected Franklin D. Roosevelt, the anti-Coolidge. Barron’s warned that the Democrat was a “public-ownership” devotee at “the ‘red’ end of the spectrum,” and Roosevelt did indeed usher in the era of big government.Yet during FDR’s first term, the Dow soared to 185.96 from 53.84—a jump of 245%, surpassing Coolidge’s bump by a wide margin.
If this tells us anything about presidents and their economic success, it’s that timing is everything. Take Herbert Hoover. He assumed office at the Coolidge peak and got buried when it collapsed. War and disease upended other presidencies. All administrations are subject to larger global forces that often scuttle even the best-laid economic plans.

If you think Joe taxing 401k funds is not going to have a major effect upon the market, you need to think that over again.

I don’t see any reason why President Biden would be that different from the historical average.

Then you have to ask yourself the question, what reason might you possibly say?

What I have always said. The president does not have as much affect as people say. The president gets too much praise when everything goes up up up, and too much blame when everything goes down.

I mostly know this due to my study and knowledge of history.
Don't you mean, herstory? You sexist pig.
I am TNCR's preeminent herstorian. By understanding the past, I can predict, er, prevagina, the future.

I’m totally on board with the change to a tax credit instead of a deduction. Makes sense. I like the refundable part.
