The Left believe in having a minimum wage. Those who don't believe in that are extreme Right-wing. Some workers, for reasons known only to themselves, are extreme Right-wingers (one can always spot them, they are the ones constantly spouting out hateful racist and sexist drivel) and they would rather earn less than the minimum wage than even slightly agree with a Left-winger. They are closet Hitlers, the lot of them.
He does think it should be higher, just can't make up his mind if it should be the Feds who raise it for the whole country, or is the individual states should set it themselves. He keeps flip-flopping on how it should be.
I agree with you. I think he said a lot of things during his campaign that he wasn't aware of how limited he will be as president. I am not defending him, just posting that he isn't against minimum wage, he just doesn't know what he's going to do, if anything, about it.
That's one of the reasons why I think he's unsuitable to be a President. Presidents should already know what they are going to do from having already planned ahead. Trump obviously hasn't planned ahead.
Well, when Papa Bush was running he said, "Read my lips. NO MORE NEW TAXES!" First thing he did when he took office? Raised taxes. They ALL make promises they can't fulfill, or don't realize they can't fulfill once they gain office.
I wouldn't have thought that would get them elected, Karen. As I said in an earlier comment, people want solid, steadfast people in power, not changeable, mercurial weirdos.
A billionaire who is a weirdo? He flip-flops because he is getting feedback from people on both sides of the coin. This is typical politician behavior.
I'm sure that will happen with quite a few things he's promised. They may not be as easy to fulfill as he thought. If he can get some of them done, that would be great.
bhwilson, I think this "billionaire" is exaggerated BS. I honestly don't believe any single person owns a billion dollars. It's an astronomical amount. Trump may be a multi-millionaire, but a billionaire? I very much doubt it.
It is the most curious puzzling thing for me to understand Andy. Normal folks want to earn money to provide for their families. The more they earn the more they can provide. Those who don't are abnormal to me. Thank you for your reply and Happy Monday! :)
Exactly, Rosie. Normal folks who want to earn money to provide for their families want stability. They don't have stability with people who "flip-flop". Lol:)
Happy Monday to you too, Rosie! By the way, did you know there was a band in the 1990s called the Happy Mondays? One of their members was known as Bez, a nickname by which I am also known to my friends. In fact I used to have an alternative AB account called Bez. I created it in the hopes of avoiding trolls who trolled me on my first account, but alas I got trolled on that account as well.
They probably do it to aggravate you and to provide you with more of your anti-Trump fodder. You should be thankful to them for contributing to your new-found purpose in life. __

I thought YOU were the English guru, and you couldn't figure out what I said???? If Rosie attacked PEOPLE on this cite, I could understand your confusion.. But, she doesn't, so I don't.
When read in conjuction with not only your first comment to me on this thread but also in view of the general stance you've taken in the past, your use of the word 'attack' lead to the conclusion of its import. Please realize that there's no way that one can read your mind. ~
Randy, why would working people want to deliberately aggravate Rosie when they don't even know her? Was your answer intended as a joke? Lol:)
