This is literally from whitehouse.gov, I can't belive this is an official post from the executive branch. I feel like it needs to be shared for posterity. (infosec.pub)

Can someone check my math? I’m estimating Trumps first term tax cuts saved the top 1% at least $100b durning his first term. Trump is complaining about less than $9m being spent here. $9m is 0.009% of $100b. Did I get that all right?

The experiment wasn't even for transgender animals. It was for transgenic which is an entirely different thing.

transgenic mice has been used in research for decades too. you ever heard of scid mice, those are transgenic mice.

But you aren’t a conservative. If you ever argued with one about this it will boil down to: taxes are theft, the rich are entitled to those tax cuts.

The only right they understand is might. Like a pinata it only trickles down after beating it with a stick.

I would argue they don't understand it, they just need to respond to it. they would be better at war if they did. they are beyond 'understanding'.
