Maher: Trump won because of PC liberals

[Colonel Frank Grimes]

Those pundits didn't get the memo on Ford and Carrier lol. Many people outside of the USA don't realize that besides heavy employment and mfg regulations, out corporate
tax rate is 35%, super high for 1st World country. It is insane that our companies can build massive plants 50 miles south of the border and sell the product back in the USA.
Even office job get off shored in large numbers. All of the Tech firms employ a ton of Irish people over there. We also have those BS H1b worker visas that allow American
companies to import workers to the USA and and pay them 35% less than American workers, office jobs.

The pundits are correct with their other offerings.

Those gawd damn Irish are stealing our jobs...

She doesn't understand White Gentile males have problems too. Trump's victory is in part a big fuck you by White Gentile males to people like her. The're saying 'We exist and we have the numbers to impact an election.' She's not listening, though.

Everyone else is supposed to vote in what they think is their own best interest, white boys are supposed to vote out of guilt.

Her condenscending attitude, holy crap. Maher didn't even try to discuss with her. It was clear that she was interested in changing the discussion away from how the Democrats lost the working class.

The same happened in Argentina last year. The peronism kept talking about welfare needing low class and we working middle class people were like "i dont give a fuck".

I think its not a matter of white vs non white but a matter of welfare seeking low class vs working middle class.

I felt the same way during kirchnerism (last governament), like i had to work and pay taxes and shut the fuck up because some people (who werent even argentine in some cases) were having a worse time.

You mean the welfare class? Sure, they vote Democrat, but you have to have heard our media and democractic party scape goating straight white men. Hillary: deplorables, Obama: clinging to guns and religion, media: uneducated white men. Never mind the pundits. The woman in that video is how many people on the left react over white men.

Let's face the facts. The Democratic party went from the party that protected the working class and represented their rights, to a party that is beholden to lobby groups and insider elites. The Republican party was essentially the same, but Trump represented enough of an outsider appeal that he gained popularity because he was seen as leading a successful revolt against the Republican establishment. The media, which went on overdrive trying to demonize him, all of this actually ended up backfiring because it just made it so evident that the entire establishment, both Democratic AND REPUBLICAN, and the media, wall street elites were all on Hillary's side. I think the net effect of all this was not a landslide of support for Trump but rather a huge number of disgusted voters, especially the working class in the Midwest, staying in and not voting for Hillary. So her voter turnout for the Midwest states was highly inaccurate and that's why all the predictions were dead wrong.

I lost so much respect for Louis CK.



I didn't want to make a thread for this video.

About the corporate tax rate being too high. I actually think it's fine where it's at because although on paper it seems high, the reality is that most businesses can write off a substantial amount of their income. I've been a business owner for many years so I've experienced the reality of that. However, in general I do support lower taxes on businesses because entrepreneurs take a substantial amount of risk in investing their money into ventures that have no guarantee of panning out, and our economy is built on the backs of entrepreneurs who are providing jobs for everyone else.

I do agree with Trump's efforts to save these jobs even at the cost of more tax breaks, and although I do feel angry when I hear that the CEO's of companies like Carrier, who are making $50 million a year and enjoying record profits (I would personally never do this if my company was already enjoying great profits, I just think these people are extremely greedy fucks with no morals), are planning to move a substantial amount of their operations to Mexico just to save more profit, I also understand the business angle. Basically, our government has to work with corporations to make our economy work, and that's the one thing I really disliked about Sanders platform because he was too socialist in that regard and kept demonizing corporations.

700 US companies now located in Ireland as direct investment soars
Ireland has benefited from $277bn (£182bn) of US direct foreign investment in the past two decades – gaining more from American firms than Brazil, Russia, India and China combined.....................................The list of major firms operating in the Republic includes Intel, Boston Scientific, Dell, Pfizer, Google, Hewlett Packard, Facebook and Johnson and Johnson.The corporate tax rate, which remains a sacrosanct part of Irish industrial policy, has been so successful in wooing US investment that the country’s neighbours across the border want it too. The Northern Ireland assembly passed legislation this week allowing for corporation tax powers to be devolved, with politicians at Stormont aiming for a similar rate. https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...-us-investment

The Left see everything in groups and no one is ever an individual. It dehumanizes all races and people. Blacks to them are their pets who need constant help...whites to them, even common whites who's ancestors were mostly farmers, are forever Engrafted unto the ilk of imperialism and badness.

Bill Maher is the middle aged version of the pathetic twenty year old guy on the Internet who thinks being confrontational and insensitive is somehow proof of his superior intellect.

I think Maher is a pseudo-intellectual, Eminem in a suit and tie. I have grown quite weary of this perma-boy syndrome that has affected a lot of American men, potentially due to a combined cultural output of echo chambers for angry people on-line and the frankly now-boring-and-pointless-as-shit trend of "shock culture"...something that is now neither young nor edgy, it's really crossed the line into infecting people with the stupid idea that endless teenage rebellion is quite good enough on its own, that no further intellectual query has to be done, and that's wrong. Dead wrong. It's childish, arrogant and pseudo-intellectual to live in a perpetual state of pushing the envelope and never developing the maturity to open and explore the contents of said envelope.

Donald Trump won because Hillary Clinton was a bad candidate, the establishment left failed the American people, and apparently half of our nation is too ignorant to understand that rapid anthropogenically caused climate change is a much more pressing issue than the state of the military industrial complex.
