SERIOUSLY: LETS GET REAL FOR A MOMENT. I HAVE JUST A FEW ITEMS TO POST ABOUT THIS MORNING, SO I'LL GET ON WITH IT AND THEN GO DO SOMETHING CONSTRUCTIVE.
I realize that the national news people are very anti Trump. They try not to show it in the news casts, but it comes through any way, so lets look at a couple of things. In a rally President Trump said, and I quote, Next year we will put in a tax cut for the middle class. This morning the today show said, and I quote, President Trump said he would put in a tax cut for the middle class before the mid term elections, but he can't because congress is not even is session. Will a tax cut for the middle class be put into effect? I don't know. Maybe and maybe not, but at least report what he said.
There is a horde of people marching from Honduras to the United States. At least that is what is being reported by the media. And they show pictures of them marching and packing children and "all" their belongings. What they don't show is all those people riding on 18 wheeler trailers. They did include a short bite of news about one person who died when they fell from a trailer.They didn't go into detail on that though. One has to wonder how this many people got together at this time to march to the United States, why do they seem to have clean clothes every day, where did they get the money to fund this march of days and weeks, since they do need food and water. Today it was reported that they will rest a day and then march to another city in Mexico where they will board a train for Tijuana on the California state line. How did they get reservations for the train for over 7000 people and where did they get the money to pay for the tickets? Or are they just going to hijack the train? If they really want to seek asylum in the United States, why are they flying the flag from there old country. Seems like that many people, that well organized, could march on their own government and demand change. Having said all that, I feel sorry for the children that are going through this.
And finally. Really people. Watching a TV shopping channel this morning, they were selling a blanket that you can get up and wear as a coat since it has a hoody on it. Guess you can wear it in cold weather with the pajamas you wear to wal-mart. I fear for the world when people can't get up and clean up before going out in public.
AND THAT'S THE VIEW FROM THE DITCH BANK
But...he DID say before midterms. He may have changed it after being informed that he was (again) wrong, but he did say it. Here's a quote: : "We're putting in a resolution some time in the next week and a half to two weeks [and] we're giving a middle-income tax reduction of about 10 percent," Trump told reporters at the White House. "This is not for business, this is for middle income, and that's on top of the tax decrease that we've already given them."
ReplyDeleteCongress is in recess until after the election, but Trump dismissed the idea that he would try to use an executive order. "No, I'm going through Congress. We won't have time to do the vote. We'll do the vote after the election," he said.
