Tipped staff as a percent of the workforce is very small. If I read his proposal correct it’s tips anywhere rather than a specific industry as well. That means in my mind a lawyer could say this is my rate that’s really low and then I have an option for a Tip. While the tip has to be voluntary it would be hard for the IRS to prove if it was agreed upon prior. So it could be really manipulated rather than help a larger percentage of people. Simply raising minimum wage or expand the standard deduction would go further I’d think.

Unfortunately, a majority of comments I’ve seen online on that interview say Harris couldn’t stop talking about trump or couldn’t answer any question she was asked. Absolutely amazing to me the difference here.

It’s funny to me that the Trump ticket is pushing this they are for the everyman and against elites…they are the elites. You can’t get more elite than a billionaire and silicon valley VC guy.

I doubt down ballot canidates are getting much monetary support either bc Lara trump being installed ensues all money goes to Don.

You can go back even to 2016 where he was laying the ground work to say he didn’t lose to Hilary and then he won and I think it shocked him a bit. He’s always been like this though across everything.

You are correct on multiple things. it’s all bathrooms and I, as a normal American, don’t care.

Just funny to watch the straw grasping here from the GOP to attack rather than actually have a policy plan.

The issue is they are twisting it and saying they forced schools to put them in boys bathrooms to ramp up the transphobia.

Wish that this wasn’t happening now and it was more of a discussion months ago, but both parties doubled down on their aging candidates. Hoping the disinformation campaigns can be overcome though and Dems are successful bc plan 47/project 2025 legit terrify me.

It is legitimate, but they also need to realize Trump would do the exact same. Trump’s even made comments how isreal should finish the job faster.

Step 10: Lose political office and make a huge deal out of it. Complain of a rigged election, but actually be happy about results and get into lobbying?

Privatized gains & Socialized losses baby!

Wow no way! That dude definitely looks 10-15 years older. I thought he was mid 40s.

He’s mad he has to get tested for his sentencing trial and won’t do it unless Joe does it too!

That was totally just a joke! So out of context!

The resolution would have repealed the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 121, which sought to force financial institutions that are holding crypto to keep the digital assets on their own balance sheets, as Coindesk recently explained.

Can someone explain why they are so upset at this?

I agree that’s his shtick but his base votes more with emotion and bad things are easier to sell to them than good things.

Yeah, but unfortunately with how charged everything is if he gets anything he will claim political persecution and try to be a martyr ( his campaign has claimed they already raised 55m since the conviction). It’s why I think he didn’t get really anything bad when he violated the gag order so much.

If your own law clerks have quit on you…you have to be pretty terrible.

This is one of those things you can definitely say both sides do though without second thought.

I feel like Elon still uses a magic 8 ball to make decisions.
