But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that - because child care is child care. It’s, couldn’t - you know, it’s something, you have to have it. In this country, you have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to but they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us, but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s gonna take care. We’re gonna have - I, I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time. Coupled with, uh, the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country - because I have to say with child care, I want to stay with child care, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth.
No worse than Nancy and Kabala and the State of the Union address when Minister of Propaganda Nancy Pelosi stood up to applaud and had to just stand there like a bafoon because she was reading the teleprompter faster than Fuhrer Biden.
Thank you for that comment. I don't think for one second thousands of haters on social media represent the "far left". (=no sarcasm, I mean it) haters are just haters, whatever political dircetion they follow.
As Bill said, the actual democratic politicians are sane, reasonable, rational people who mostly speak respectfully and urge people to find compromise and focus on solutions. IOW, boring. GOP politicians have largely abandoned that because it's boring and doesn't get them views and donations. Thank god democratic politicians haven't gone down the same road but the incentives suggest they probably will at some point. People are bored with sanity and rationality and courtesy and respect. They want drama, controversy, and conflict. Social media provides that in spades, and now GOP politicians do too. It may be just a matter of time before Democratic politicians follow suit.

@@highdefinist9697 Respect is the important thing. Liberals used to have the starting point of assuming that people do NOT have ill intent, that every human being is owed a basic minimum amount of respect and human dignity, and that dehumanization of any sort only ever leads to degrading humanity as a whole. Yes, speak out against the ills of society and problems facing those within it, but do so in a manner where opposition is heard and afforded the chance to express themselves. Losing this mindset is how atrocities have ended up being carried out by people who are certain their truth is more important than anything and who fervently believe in their own superiority.
Yeah, agreed with this. Something about Twitter brings out that kind of smug dismissal tone too (not just on the left, though yes, certainly on the left).
It's a problem with the microphone placement. The audience is fairly distant from the stage so they mic the crowd. Whoever is doing it is always keying on one or two individuals which makes them seem overly present and too loud. Poor sound design.
You are on the political left, I am not... you still make me laugh constantly. You have the gull to call out the left when nobody else does! Sir, you will forever have my respect! Keep fighting the good fight, even when I disagree!
I always say that true American liberals shouldn't just be protesting systemic racism or corruption in the government and corporate spheres. They should be defenders of free speech and expression and be willing to criticize regressive ideas like jihadism without shirking away for fear of others calling them "racist" or "Islamophobic". Personally, I identify as a moderate, but I share more liberal ideas than a lot of people on the left. Yes, I groan when I hear my uncles express their opposite yet equally extreme beliefs, and I do attack online comments that demonstrate unhinged Trumpist attitudes, but I don't let myself be swept in bandwagons and hate mobs. Unless they're genuinely disturbing or obnoxious, opinions should be respected.
I agree. The same people - think squad - who protest against Islamophobia (not just within the U.S. but outside) do not protest how non-Muslims are treated in the Islamic world. The same for how LGBT people are treated in the Muslim world. It is double standards as they often criticize not just the U.S. or even the West but other secular countries for some of these rights - but they are not ready to shame the Muslim world. There is a double standard. Wrong is wrong.
@@renegadepuppy Because the Muslim world doesn’t come under their remit. The Muslim world wouldn’t be “shamed” by anything they could say. You vastly overestimate how much their protests would achieve.

BTW: If you ever change your mind…… I’ll divorce my husband, and accept your marriage proposal🤣🤣🤣🤣👍.
I was surprised at how mean Robert Kennedy’s family is about it, too. Everyone is free to support the candidate of their choice. That’s the basis of any political discussion.
It was like 4 ppl in his family of hundreds. He has many family members working on his campaign. That was just a hit piece to discredit him before his campaign even got a start.
@@BridgesOnBikes BS. It's more than FOUR people. And no Kennedy is working in his campaign - he doesn't have one. He dropped out because he knew he didn't have a chance in Hell of getting elected.

It's the far left that make the headlines and get the interviews. You won't see someone being interviewed on national television for saying "we really should be acting civil towards each other, especially when we disagree."

I fully agree. (Retired Army Here) I have several friends all over the political spectrum. We can discuss politics, and we can agree to disagree and still be friends. There are some subjects we just don't discuss because there is no changing each others minds, and we recognize that. We do not call each other names because we disagree with each other. We treat each other with respect. respect goes both ways.
You mean like denigrating with nicknames on national television as part of campaigning strategy? Like calling Hillary Clinton "Crooked Hillary," Joe Biden "Sleepy Joe," Elizabeth Warren "Pocahontas," Marco Rubio "Little Marco," Ted Cruz "Lyin' Ted," Jeb Bush "Low Energy Jeb," Bernie Sanders "Crazy Bernie," Michael Bloomberg "Mini Mike," Adam Schiff "Shifty Schiff" and "Pencil Neck," Nancy Pelosi "Crazy Nancy," Steve Bannon "Sloppy Steve," Kim Jong-un "Little Rocket Man," Omarosa Manigault Newman "Wacky Omarosa," Stormy Daniels "Horseface," The New York Times "Failing New York Times," CNN "Fake News CNN," Jim Acosta "Crazy Jim Acosta," MSNBC "Concast/MSDNC," Mika Brzezinski "Low I.Q. Mika," Joe Scarborough "Psycho Joe," Jeff Sessions "Mr. Magoo," and Jeff Flake "Jeff Flakey”.
@@michaelvirgini2388 While I agree that Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich were polarizing figures - they cannot hold a candle to the anti Trump left of today. I am not particularly a Trump fan, but it is utterly 'Icky' what today's left is throwing at him - and more so at his supporters. And credit where it is due, I have never seen or heard Trump calling supporters of the left anything close to 'deplorable, uneducated bunch of lunatics'.

This is what is so great about Bill (and what a lot of people don't seem to get about him), he justifiably gives it to BOTH sides when they are deserving of it.
It’s not at all an equivalency…. I appreciate sticking it to both sides in a sane society, but the bullsh*t bill complains about on the left is nothing compared to the active harm the majority of republicans are doing to this country.

So true.
But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that - because child care is child care. It’s, couldn’t - you know, it’s something, you have to have it. In this country, you have to have it.
But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to but they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us, but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country.
Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s gonna take care. We’re gonna have - I, I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time. Coupled with, uh, the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country - because I have to say with child care, I want to stay with child care, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth.

Thank you for that comment. I don't think for one second thousands of haters on social media represent the "far left". (=no sarcasm, I mean it)
haters are just haters, whatever political dircetion they follow.
Speaking of which, Kamala pulled back on a proposed higher capital gains taxes. She is not a progressive fighter.
As Bill said, the actual democratic politicians are sane, reasonable, rational people who mostly speak respectfully and urge people to find compromise and focus on solutions. IOW, boring. GOP politicians have largely abandoned that because it's boring and doesn't get them views and donations. Thank god democratic politicians haven't gone down the same road but the incentives suggest they probably will at some point. People are bored with sanity and rationality and courtesy and respect. They want drama, controversy, and conflict. Social media provides that in spades, and now GOP politicians do too. It may be just a matter of time before Democratic politicians follow suit.

@@highdefinist9697 Respect is the important thing. Liberals used to have the starting point of assuming that people do NOT have ill intent, that every human being is owed a basic minimum amount of respect and human dignity, and that dehumanization of any sort only ever leads to degrading humanity as a whole. Yes, speak out against the ills of society and problems facing those within it, but do so in a manner where opposition is heard and afforded the chance to express themselves.
Losing this mindset is how atrocities have ended up being carried out by people who are certain their truth is more important than anything and who fervently believe in their own superiority.

You are on the political left, I am not... you still make me laugh constantly. You have the gull to call out the left when nobody else does! Sir, you will forever have my respect! Keep fighting the good fight, even when I disagree!
Maybe the best I've seen.
I always say that true American liberals shouldn't just be protesting systemic racism or corruption in the government and corporate spheres. They should be defenders of free speech and expression and be willing to criticize regressive ideas like jihadism without shirking away for fear of others calling them "racist" or "Islamophobic". Personally, I identify as a moderate, but I share more liberal ideas than a lot of people on the left. Yes, I groan when I hear my uncles express their opposite yet equally extreme beliefs, and I do attack online comments that demonstrate unhinged Trumpist attitudes, but I don't let myself be swept in bandwagons and hate mobs. Unless they're genuinely disturbing or obnoxious, opinions should be respected.
You sound like a 19th century liberal--and I mean that as a compliment.
Free speech and lies are two different things. Allowing clear, obvious and abject lies under the banner of free speech is a slippery slope.
People on the right have this notion that others are supposed tolerate their intolerance. Which is just a logical fallacy.
I agree. The same people - think squad - who protest against Islamophobia (not just within the U.S. but outside) do not protest how non-Muslims are treated in the Islamic world. The same for how LGBT people are treated in the Muslim world. It is double standards as they often criticize not just the U.S. or even the West but other secular countries for some of these rights - but they are not ready to shame the Muslim world. There is a double standard. Wrong is wrong.
@@renegadepuppy Because the Muslim world doesn’t come under their remit. The Muslim world wouldn’t be “shamed” by anything they could say. You vastly overestimate how much their protests would achieve.

You are correct in saying "The liberals he looked up to, though, never had social media", but the thing with social media is that you don't have to comment if you don't want to. Or in the case of those Twitter/X hatemongers, if commenting will make you look like a mean-spirited judgemental turd.

A lot of the Hollywood had been silent on that and they are so hot and bothered about a wife not saying anything about her husband’s political position. Fourth, unlike conservatives or even progressives, a true liberal believes in freedom of expression. This means they would first be ok with anyone including their family to choose or vote or support whoever they want. That is the first choice.
A lot of liberals (PS we are not progressives who cannot criticize obvious wrong) vote Dems because we feel it is better for democracy at this time. That does not mean most of us or even most of Dem voters would stand up for asinine things like defund the police.
