The amazing and ironic choices for P and VP by the GOP
Rather than nominating P and VP candidates who INNOCULATE the GOP against the coming critical debates on taxes, inequality, the New Deal, the value of social safety nets, fairness, and what the fundamental strength of the USA really is....they have instead chosen candidates who are LIGHTNING RODS for the reason to have the debate in the first place!
As a country, we'll have to make meaningful decisions over the next four years on the direction of our nation. Who we are and what we stand for. Fundamental choices.
It's amazing and ironic...that they would choose as presidential candidate a corporatist member of the elite .1% who makes 10,000 bets during television debates, who says 'he doesn't feel rich', who chose as his career the sociopathic but legal dismantling of companies in order to feast on its bones, who still believes in trickle down, whose lifestyle is iconically the definition of disconnected/elite/arrogance that can come from being born into money, who may exemplify the problem of low taxes for the rich....AND the architect of the next phase of trickle down on steroids as VP...as the two people to help us work out a path forward in a complex debate.
And it looks like the dems, for once, are willing to take advantage of the easy case that will get the message across.

This is an amazing opportunity for us to showcase what the RW in this country keep voting into office. Willard couldn't have made a better pick. Ryan was so far down my list he didn't even register - I never thought they would double down on trickle down and make it the showcase talking point of the national election.
