Or maybe we can just say this:

 

Kamala's taxation plans were flawed in a way that would have damaged the economy.

Trump's taxation (tariff) plans are flawed in a way that will damage the economy.

 

I guess I don't understand the knee-jerk reaction that amounts to "yeah, it's bad policy, but the other guy's policy was even worse." Trump is in charge now (well, in two months); how about not doing stupid things?

I don't understand why you wouldn't understand.   The election was a couple weeks ago, your people still run the show and really, anything goes at this point.  You brought up a point about Target maybe considering an impact when Trump take office or at some point thereafter.   It wasn't "knee jerk", it was the reality of the choices we had.  The plan democrats voted for had the potential to destroy the stock market, and that's from the lips of Mark Cuban, Harris Man. 

 

If it makes you feel better, we can run about fretting about what the future might look like on plans not yet implemented, negotiations that have yet to take place, or alternative solutions considered, but why not talk about the reality today?  

 

Can we talk about Biden/Harris in any substantive way, the escalation in Ukraine for example, or do we table that too because Trump's in charge now (well, in two months)?

I don't think the Ukraine long range missile decision was wise.

But on the economy and tax/deficit policy: nothing Biden/Harris proposed is getting passed. That is dead. Many things Trump wants to do will get passed or he will do them (tariffs) by executive action. 

The universe of choices is not Harris Plan vs. Trump Plan. It makes sense to talk about a sensible alternative since there are still a few actual Republicans left who might be swayed in a non-damaging tariff direction.

That’s a sensible take. You don’t agree with the plan and want  to see compromise.  I’m not convinced the tariffs are a bad idea, at least when considered in the context of the state of our government and spending historically.  
 

However, I should point out that I simply indicated I wondered how devastating the Harris plan would have been, which still seems like an interesting question given so many millions of people supported it.

You’re consistently and demonstrably wrong on most of your opinions, like almost pathologically incorrect.  I’m not certain your view on deflection is really all that important.  I’ll consider it, though, before discarding. 
 

From my perspective, it was part of the reason voting for your lady friend was a no-go.  There was concern expressed her plan would have devastating consequences on the stock market, and Frank’s post dealt with that.  
 

You’re  correct, though, we’ll never know and heavy lies the crown.  That was my point earlier when you were going to bat for high prices at Walmart.  Maybe had you not stayed on the sidelines…anyway, we’ll never know. 
 

Good stuff though. 

You’re full of more ***** than anyone. Keep your head shoved up your ass. We are all laughing at you.
