In an ironic twist, complaining about the wealthy has been the Democrats’ rhetoric for as long as I can remember. Here’s some pre Trump complaints I recall...
The wealthy don’t pay their fair share. Trump: New tax plan just took away a huge source of federal tax deductions.
The wealthy ship jobs oversees. Trump: attempting to put reciprocal tariffs in place to level the playing field.
The wealthy use the government to subsidize their business. Trump: let’s stop subsidizing companies doing bulk mail and abusing the system.
The wealthy use cheap labor and we need to bolster unions. Trump: cuts work visas and attempts to remove undocumented workers that depress unskilled labor wages.
I guess this goes to show that the medium is the message. LTDVB.
Equally ironic: kowtowing to the wealthy has been the republican rhetoric for as long as I can remember.
There's no question that Trump's motive here is to get back at Bezos for things that The Washington Post publishes. You're arguing in favor of a president using the power of the executive branch to punish a political foe. Do you really think that this is ok? Does the fact that Democrats are usually the ones complaining about the wealthy make you feel better about this?
