"no heat about any on the SC list". You look really uninformed. I dont care about "heat" from corporate media. They LOVE the concept of making it impossible for ordinary people to have an influence in the political system. And when these SC nominees have a long track record of opening the floodgates for the billionaire class to buy elections, like Justice Scalia, then that is what you get! What is so great about the donor class buying elections in your opinion? Are you a member of the big money donor class? Is that why you support it?

Yes, in fact here's a copy of it

Where in this plan do you see "trillions in breaks for himself and his cronies"?

To balance that budget, as he gives himself HUGE tax cuts, he will have to cut federal spending by about $1 trillion per year! The entire Medicare and social security is about $1.4 trillion per year. It will be BRUTAL!

Perplexing . . . . I thought the LAT and other legitimate media only published twisted lies.

You are underestimating the revenue that will come from the additional jobs that will be created when businesses are discouraged from continuing to move overseas

Will these "additional jobs" make up for the trillions of dollars in revenue and life-changing innovations that Trump would dismantle by denying immigrant workers and investors entry?

Trump is utilizing the very innovations that were founded by foreign entrepreneurs that entered US on visas (e.g. Instagram) to disparage foreign entrepreneurs.

Yeah, it doesn't work that way. They aren't going over seas for the tax cuts but the offset in expenses related to employment wages. Plenty of ways to reduce your tax burden in a country without moving to another.

I think the same poll indicated Obama was ahead of Romney if I recall.

Call the RNC.

Demand that they move the election up to next Tuesday.
