It's so easy being a leftist politician, you can do whatever you want, give all the money you want to yourself and your friends and if the rich refuse to pay the bill you can just blame them for everything and gather even more support.

Can anybody explain to me why any leftist politician would ever be restrained and not drive the economy to the ground when it's on their best interest?

The rich don't pay for shit. EVER.

The middle class, what's left of it, always picks up the check.

>> No.18829438

The rich, or atleast the gulf between rich and poor that is caused ultimately by the rich, is responsible for everything bad in society though

>> No.18829464

It's amazing the right still thinks Reaganomics was a good idea when the middle class has it worse than they almost ever have. Plus we haven't had an actual progressive economic platform in the United States decades, just corporate cocksucking neolib bullshit

well, "leftist" obama made the rich even richer, didn't let banks fall and bombed/"intervened" the fuck out of some more countries. if that's a leftist in your definition, then "leftists" in the rest of the world are extreme leftists and right-wing liberals are their left.

"Leftist politicians" is made up of such a large swathe of people it's laughable people lump everyone together. There's actual infighting and disagreement between people on the American 'left.'

Not intentionally, but the dude's an egomaniac who also has no real interest in running a government which is why his WH staff essentially run free to do whatever they want
