I legit think it would be fascinating if he tried for Medicare for all.

Which liberal reflex would be stronger? Immediatly smothering any possible progressive legislation or immediatly surrendering to republicans.

[–] balsoft@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 months ago

That was the joke, but then I remembered that my grandparents friends had one of dem bois (pic not mine)

Which could absolutely be broken, although it would then be right once every 7 years on average.

It's because Trump is not a Neoliberal, like Reagan, Clinton, and every president since them from either party. Biden, Bush, Obama...

Trump is a Fascist. He can throw white working people a bone every now and then because he is not beholden to the Capitalist class to the extent other leaders were and are.

I prefer the explanation some others have said which is Trump was also a Democrat earlier in life and this is partialy him reverting to easiest and simplest ideas that "sound" good to him because at one point he wasn't completely unaware or opposed to them.

I don't think Trump particularly cares about drug company CEOs or executives, like at all because they're alien to him. He was a TV celebrity and in real estate etc, he only ever cares about other "rich" people when it is either personally convenient(e.g tax cuts etc) or they flatter him somehow.

Trump is a fascist but not a coherent one, therefore it can't be the only reason.

In the first week he scrapped the order that put a cap on drug prices.

He got rid of so ething that actually reduced drug prices, prices shot up, and now he's declared the prices have to go down with zero enforcement.

The "broken callendar" threw itself i to a shredder as soon as it got hung up.
