We Must Have Donald Trump As President Because Kamala Harris Is A Communist And Joe Biden Is A Communist Stooge And They Will Let Communists And Anarchists Destroy America
Trump is becoming like a cornered rat, as are his supporters by osmosis. They have little in the way of Trump accomplishments  , that would appeal to anyone outside of his 35 - 40% base, to brag about in this campaign. They are losing, in some polls by a considerable margin, and are down to fear mongering in the worst tradition of Joseph McCarthy, a man whose memory Donald Trump admires.

We MUST Have Donald Trump As President Because Kamala Harris Is A Communist And Joe Biden Is A Communist Stooge And They Will Let Communists And Anarchists Destroy America

This is , at long last, what it has come down to for the Trump campaign and it's army of faithful followers. Interestingly, it is BECAUSE Trump strategists know that Biden and Harris are not radicals that the Trumpsters call them radicals.  The reality of it does not exist, so they must create the perception. If Harris and Biden were committed leftists there would be a history of it. There is none. Trumpism wants to create a fictional history of socialist and communist connections to the Democratic ticket. 

Joe Biden had been in the Senate or the vice presidency for 43 years. Never once in that long period was he considered a radical. It is ludicrous to say that Biden will lean toward socialism or communism. 

Kamala Harris became a government prosecutor one year after she graduated from law school, and held criminal justice positions in California up until the time she entered the U.S. Congress. Here is her wikipedia page.   There is nothing on there about Harris being a member of a subversive, radical, socialist or communist organization. Ever. She spent her entire career prosecuting criminals or managing the Attorney General of California's office, or in the US Senate. These are establishment positions, not radical ones. Harris is a member of the establishment, you know the people socialists and communists oppose. 

Trump is becoming like a cornered rat, as are his supporters by osmosis. They have little in the way of Trump accomplishments  , that would appeal to anyone outside of his 35 - 40% base, to brag about in this campaign. They are losing, in some polls by a considerable margin, and are down to fear mongering in the worst tradition of Joseph McCarthy, a man whose memory Donald Trump admires. Indeed one of Trump's best friends and confidantes and henchmen was the infamous Roy Cohn, who was Joseph McCarthy's legal attack dog.  Trump does not hesitate to employ McCarthy-like tactics, and by all appearances he loves to do so. 

I don't really expect Trump loyalists to stop with this insanity, in a sense it is now all they know. It is up to the rest of us to turn out to the polls in mass and send this atrocity known as Trumpism into the political version of the pits of hell.

The stock market, at this point, has already factored in a potential Biden presidency.  The net message is that losing Trump is not a big concern.   Taxes certainly will be raised at some point, but until there is some clarity on the balance of power and the nature of Biden-administration legislation, I would not expect much of a change based on the presidential election itself.

If Biden is elected and the Senate remains R, we will have a conflicted dynamic that will make it difficult to make significant changes.   If the Senate goes D (and presuming the House remains D) then biting taxation will be a serious concern and it will likely have a negative effect on the economy.   The forces underlying the deals made to rally the various factions of the Ds behind Biden will be able to manifest into some legislation and the economy will take a hit.   Good might come out of it (e.g. a sensible, responsible energy policy), but the economy will certainly suffer.

I would prefer, in 2021 that is, to see Biden as PotUS with an R Congress.  That way the great many unknowns of a Biden-Harris administration will have a serious check to help prevent destabilizing movements and the nation will be rid of Trump.   I suspect that I will favor near gridlock until we see a marked improvement in the quality of those we elect to be in charge.

Increased spending on green infrastructure investments would boost the economy. 

The general rule is that taxes are pretty much neutral for the economy. The money that is withdrawn being reinjected.

Emmanuel Saez has shown that the most efficient tax rate is around 70%, and that below 90% taxes do not brake the economy.

I agree.   My point was that we do not know what will actually happen if both the Executive and Legislative branches are D given the factions at play in 2021.   That is, I cannot go by what I think Biden (the individual) would naturally do because I am confident that he has made deals to rally support behind him.   If Congress is fully D in 2021 we have an unchecked system given the prevalence of power-hungry partisans and the absence of states-persons.   To wit, given we do not and will not have states-persons, the most effective check remains to be the partisan opposition check.

The general rule is that taxes are pretty much neutral for the economy. The money that is withdrawn being reinjected.

Depends on who is taxed and the amount of taxation.   In general principle, taxing consumers will diminish demand; taxing businesses will diminish supply.   In reality this is a very complex, nuanced matter so I have just stated the most basic principles.   We do not know what specific taxation might take place, but I would bet on an unsophisticated tax that affects businesses and the middle class.   I would be surprised if Congress had the balls to tax the aristocracy of the USA in a meaningful way but it would be good to see some movement in that area since that is one measure to mitigate runaway capitalism (the rare spikes of incredible success that results in leverage multipliers which produce extreme wealth measured in the tens of billions).    Again, I doubt Congress has the balls (other than a short-term, sunsetted tax), so we will likely see taxation that goes after the far less wealthy masses who have shown to endure this (and oddly defend runaway capitalism) with no real consequences to Congress.

Emmanuel Saez has shown that the most efficient tax rate is around 70%, and that below 90% taxes do not brake the economy.

To be clear, you are speaking of a tax rate on the top 0.1%.   Taxing the uber rich will have little impact on the economy.   I am not concerned with the upper tax rate but rather taxes on the middle and upper classes (the masses which lack direct pathological political influence).

If people in this country want European style government they are going to have to pay for it like they do in Europe. 

Correct, social democracy requires higher taxation (businesses and individuals) to fund the social programs.

No. On the top tax bracket. Top 15% if there are six brackets. A tax must be applied to a large enough population, if it is to be efficient.

Politically, a rate at 70% is inaccessible. But Saiz's work is important because it explodes the myth that "the rich would just stop!"

No.

Yes, the 70%-90% is regarding the top bracket.

I was not saying that taxation itself would ONLY be applied at the top bracket but that your percentage, per Saez, applied only to the top bracket.   He has made other statements such as 75% applied to the top 1%.   Point is, he is talking about the top bracket.  

Politically, a rate at 70% is inaccessible. But Saiz's work is important because it explodes the myth that "the rich would just stop!"

You do not understand that anyone can be unfairly attacked?   Certainly you must realize that there exists an almost unlimited supply of unfair attacks available.   If one were to accuse Trump of being a closet Nazi who secretly desires to complete Hitler's genocide, is that a fair attack in your world?

Extreme positions such as "It isn't possible to unfairly attack Donald Trump" lessen the credibility of the fair attacks.

Well that is entirely different.   Yes it is quite fair to attack Trump (or anyone) without softening the attack with a "but, he did this well".

Those who attack Biden and Harris do not seem to offer a "but, he/she did this well".   When some call Harris a slut, they don't seem to also offer that she is a very smart slut.  /s

Joe Biden had been in the Senate or the vice presidency for 43 years. Never once in that long period was he considered a radical. It is ludicrous to say that Biden will lean toward socialism or communism. 

What he has done, said, or supported over the last 43 years clearly doesn't mean much in 2020.

Joe Biden Denounces Hyde Amendment, Reversing His Position

The Real Reason Joe Biden Won’t Release His Papers

Biden voted for welfare reform and the Defense of Marriage Act and an “ immoral ” border wall

he advocated  against  green-lighting the raid that killed Osama bin Laden

Biden likes to pretend he was a fierce opponent of the invasion of Iraq, when in reality he turned critical only after the democracy-building went south. Biden stood in front of Congress in 2002, as chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and  argued  for war.

The historic  record  already shows that Biden was far more than just “civil” with segregationists early in his career: He engaged in obsequious efforts to gain their trust for committee seats and worked with them on issues such as busing.

While in the Senate, Biden supported virtually every expansion of the drug war and mass incarceration, co authoring   the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act. Biden gave passionate speeches on the Senate floor arguing that one could be a “progressive”  and  “ lock the SOBs up .” Now Biden claims to regret 1990s crime bill, calling it a “big mistake.”
