[quote=flu][quote=harvey][quote=no_such_reality]The market is snoozing because they know this is Trump’s trial balloon and not an actual proposal or anything else that as even a margin of a chance of passing.[/quote]
It’s not a “trial balloon” – it’s a loose collection of unworkable ideas that have superficial appeal to his base.
Trump will never actually make a formal proposal on taxes, on healthcare, on anything big.
Because he’s dug himself into a huge hole by making outrageous and completely unfeasible promises. It’s the same old Republican themes amplified by Trumpian-level bullshit: lower taxes while reducing the deficit while increasing military spending…with a few Trump extras like increasing infrastructure spending.
He can’t make an actual proposal with these parameters because it would be laughably bad, and the the last thing he wants is to be accountable.
So he’ll defer it to congress, like he did with healthcare. It will flounder and Trump will blame everyone else.
This is the “leadership” we are going to see for the next four years.[/quote]
And exactly nothing is going to get done… I love it!

LOL, harvey I have to give you that one. I didn’t go look at what the WH actually provided until this morning. I looked at what all the media sources were saying.
What are they all reporting on? That’s barely a collection of campaign wishes.
