Like Mitch McConnell or Paul Ryan? That's Republican? Not reducing taxes is GOP? I was 3 when he died. You weren't even born, were you? Doesn't sound very Republican to me
Those two are not very conservative, imo.
So, how has that fight against tyranny, poverty, disease......and especially WAR gone thus far? Has the US stopped to even take it's breath in the decades after whacking JFK?
There isn't much sacrifice going on from the average American these days. They need everything NOW....and preferably at someone else's expense.
Just that balanced budget alone would make him an extremist outcast in DC today.
That's why Ike warned everyone of the Military Industrial Complex. And Kennedy vowed to bust up the CIA. Well, look who's still around......and running things.
Then you're in denial about what real conservatives want and prioritize. You just buy that line of bulllshit that 'caring is what matters most'........while most of those social programs and irresponsible spending doesn't fix a thing (aside from elections)

Wasn't Clinton the last president with a balanced budget? Doesn't sound like Republicans care all that much about it.

IIRC, even THAT 'balanced budget' was a DC Budget Office game of cups. They spend more and more and drive the Debt ever higher. You think the Plan is to just declare bankruptcy? What else could it be?
As I've said, McConnell and others are not conservatives. THAT's part of which made them undermine Trump so much.

You think Donald cared about balancing the budget? www.yahoo.com/entertainment/kiss-gene-simmons-donald-trump-142148190.html

I've already given you that Trump failed in the area of Budget/Spending. His big mistake was even trusting the GOP to be conservatives.
Gene was friendly with Trump. NOW he's not? And I think he forgot to mention the racist president immediately before Trump. THAT guy got the ball really rolling. Which is a big part of the reason Trump was elected in the first place.
What 70 million bought..........was the actual change in direction for the US. And it was working. Unlike what we now have. Back to the Establishment and all of their expert ways.
Ethics? Joe? The Big Guy that gets his cut from his junkie kid? THAT ethical Joe?
Gene is a great example of a fella that'd do anything for a buck. Can you recall ANY other musician that has marketed their band harder than him and all of his KISS gear?

For someone who claims he wasn't all that much a Trumper, you sure get pissed if anyone disses him. How was Obama racist? Being black? No. Trump's solid core, that 1/3 core base, are fans. Not voters. Fans. They are cheering their team. Team Trump. Yes, Simmons is a consummate businessman. Isn't that what you voted for Trump as? Someone who would run the government to be run as a business? I seem to recall arguing how that doesn't work because unlike business, government has to offer unprofitable services rather than cut them like my cherry vanilla diet Dr Pepper only sold somewhere in New England or my lime Kickstart only sold in Australia. Trump polarized things.

Where's the pissed off part of my post? I just like pointing out people and their inconsistencies.
He was racist against whites.........even the white grandparents that provided him with a better than average life.
He's an entertaining speaker in person. Why be so grumpy about it? I've never been to one, but I did give one rally on TV about 40 minutes. It was like a raucous rock concert. My sister who wasn't even into politics really went to one in GB.....and she said it was great and he was very funny in person.
Consumate? You saying that in a positive way? I think Gene has been very successful.......but he's also been quite the character over the years, too. Which of the two guys would you rather associate with, Headbanger?
I more voted AGAINST Hillary than had any confidence in Trump, to be honest. It really was almost a last minute (hold my nose) and vote situation. But then he pleasantly surprised me and millions of others by actually delivering on a lot of things that previous GOPers said they just couldn't get done.
I don't need Govt to make a $Buck........but it'd be nice if it didn't treat OUR money like it was free. And there are tons of ways for the Govt to do a much better job of that.......but they choose not to because they do not care about you, or your child and especially future generations that'll end up paying for all this crap. How's that Inflation doing in your hood these days? You feeling that burn yet?
Obama polarized things. Trump was a direct reaction to that. Polarizing in the opposite direction. Ask others here if I'm mistaken about Barack and how he left things. He did all he could to be divisive. Just because he didn't obnoxiously tweet it all doesn't change that fact.

I will feel only slightly more disappointed that Americans are truly this dumb.
Either way, I hope they enjoy their new norm of higher gas prices, energy and food costs and ever more Govt involvement

I hope the Inflation goes down........but these prices? higher rents? More Govt? That ain't going away anytime soon. Buckle up.
Here's 3 Headlines telling the truth that's obvious to most......and the last one is the typical denial riddled response from hardcore leftists.
Pessimism confirmed: Consumer sentiment plummets to 40-year low
Americans Could See Grocery Store Prices Skyrocket Even Higher: REPORT
Inflation hits new 40-year high of 8.6% as gas, food prices
Progressives Rip Corporations for 'Using Inflation as a Cover Story to Jack Up Prices and Pad Profits'
