The Atlantic: “Trump’s populism offers nothing to working class”
This is of course obv to anyone with a brain.


The Utter Emptiness of Trump’s Populism

In Europe, right-wing demagogues steer material benefits to working-class supporters, but the current U.S. president has delivered nothing of the sort.

Peter Beinart Nov 5, 2019




Other than on trade, he’s utterly abandoned the economic populism that he touted during the 2016 campaign. As a candidate, he vowed not to reduce Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid. In office, he endorsed a push to turn Medicaid into a block grant, thus leaving it vulnerable to dramatic cuts. On the campaign trail, he pledged to end the carried-interest deduction that benefits the private-equity and hedge-fund industries and promised not to cut taxes for the rich. As president, though, he signed a tax cut whose benefits go mostly to the wealthiest and offered little support when Republican Senators Marco Rubio and Mike Lee pushed for a child tax credit vaguely reminiscent of what Poland offers. Candidate Trump suggested raising the minimum wage to $10 an hour and instituting a $1 trillion infrastructure plan. In office, he has backed off both.

Trump has done all this even though his populist economic rhetoric probably helped him win the presidency. As Vox’s Matthew Yglesias has pointed out, one of Trump’s selling points to working-class whites was that, in contrast to Mitt Romney, he “was a culture warrior instead of a plutocrat.”

Wrong answer^. The article states Trump had no problem keeping his promises to the standard GOPe voter groups (ie The Paul Ryan constituency). But he’s kept virtually none to his white working class voters.

I sometimes wonder if these anti-trump ****s ever actually talk to a middle America, working class person before vomiting on their keyboard.

I know quite a few people who were anti trump a couple of years ago that are coming to the light....

All the 2019 polling data on the white working class shows your acquaintances are the minority. But if whistling past the graveyard makes you feel better, go for it.

Given your history and accuracy on this topic, it makes me feel even more confident to disagree.

The working man is tired of the liberal bullshit and congress that is doing NOTHING but chasing Trump....He's going to be running away and giving the peace sign as we walks into the endzone next November.

The market is at an all time high.....retirement funds are through the roof.....Imagine how well the country would be doing if Congress would actually do something like pass the trade deals.

The working man knows who is sodomizing them.

Vast majority of Pube voters spew opinion. It’s rare to see one post any evidence or data for their viewpoint, so it’s no surprise at all you didn’t either.

I'll use the evidence that in 2016 you and the libs were giving Trump no chance and he beat that ass until the candy came out. The only fact you'll understand is the W on the scoreboard.

I'm sorry he grabbed you by the pussy, actually I'm not.

Libs are spinning and manipulating numbers and charts and using crayons to try to give their voters some hope.

Which of Trump's policies led to your economic good fortune? I ask because I'm doing better now than in 2016, but only because of my own effort. No president has ever had a hand in how much I make.

Biz2Credit’s report recently noted:

The average revenue of Latino-owned businesses improved 46.5% in 2019, increasing to $479,413 from $327,189 in 2018, according to Biz2Credit’s annual study. Meanwhile, the number of credit applications from Latino-owned businesses increased by 23% over the past 12 months.

The number of credit applications from Latino-owned businesses increased by 23 percent over the past 12 months.

The report quoted Rohit Arora, CEO of Biz2Credit, who oversaw the research.

“Latino-owned businesses have grown 31.6% since 2012, and our research finds that revenues of Latino-owned companies jumped 23% from 2017-18,” said Arora, “Cost management is a challenge for young and growing firms, which can factor into the dip in credit scores. Latino businesses are thriving and expanding, and they help contribute to the overall strength of the U.S. economy.”
