If /ptg/ was really irrelevant, nobody would bother disrupting these threads. If Trump was actually losing support, the disruptors would be spamming poll numbers in the 30s. If the wall was not being built, we would not see a massive zerg rush on the southern border of people trying to get in before it's completed. If Trump was not kicking poohbear's ass at the trade negotiation table, Yang would not be a candidate.
you guys could have at least memed rand paul or something

YANG GANG PASTA - ARGUMENTS FOR YANG AND REFUTATION OF SHILL ARGUMENTS
PART 1 >What is UBI (Universal Basic Income)? Every adult citizen gets paid a sum of money every month, regardless of occupational, no strings attached. Yang in particular wants this sum to be 1000$ a month. >Why support UBI (Universal Basic Income)? More than 50% of current work activities are technically automatable by adapting currently demonstrated technologies and in about 60 percent of occupations, at least one-third of the constituent activities could be automated. UBI ensures that everyone's existence is secured and the markets keep running by giving them the ability to buy and consume. UBI is projected to grow the economy by $2.5 trillion in eight years and create 4.6 million new jobs. This would generate approximately $500 – 600 billion in new revenue from economic growth and activity. UBI drives up the wages of unpleasant jobs by giving workers the ability to quit without starving. rooseveltinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Modeling-the-Macroeconomic-Effects-of-a-Universal-Basic-Income.pdf mckinsey.com/~/media/mckinsey/featured insights/future of organizations/what the future of work will mean for jobs skills and %20wages/mgi%20jobs%20lost-jobs%20gained_report_december%202017.ashx >But won't people stop working? A study done by Harvard and MIT proves otherwise: economics.mit.edu/files/12488
PART 2 >But isn't this communism/socialism? No. Socialists want the means of production to be nationalized. UBI is in fact necessary for the preservation of free markets. As automation kills jobs, the former workers need the ability to buy and consume, otherwise the markets won't work. Markets need consumers to sell their goods to and UBI ensures this. Without UBI, you'd get masses of angry socialists seizing all property and creating another orwellian dystopia. UBI is in fact an anti-communist measure necessary in our times. Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, Richard Nixon, Paul Krugman and George McGovern all supported it and they strongly oppose communism/socialism of any kind. Yang himself has voiced his support for capitalism many times. UBI is simply capitalism with a floor you can't fall beneath. >Is he a jew puppet? Yang said that we should stop supporting Israel and wants to stop the endless wars. >How does he benefit whites? He acknowledged the issue of white birthrates and aims to fix it. Also, UBI would incentivise whites to have children and allow mothers to stay home raising them. twitter.com/andrewyangvfa/status/1010207553324806150 >But isn't this giving gibs to non-whites? Non-whites are disproportionate recipients of welfare. UBI would replace all welfare and unlike with welfare, whites would get their share too. It is a net gain for whites.
If they memed someone like jim webb it would have been more effective

PART 3 >How will he finance it? With a value-added tax. It is a on the production of goods or services a business produces and it makes it much harder for large corporations, who are experts at hiding profits and income, to avoid paying their fair share. A VAT is nothing new. 160 out of 193 countries in the world already have a Value-Added Tax or something similar, including all of Europe which has an average VAT of 20 percent. UBI would also replace all welfare. 72% of the welfare budget is spent on administration is not actually being handed out. UBI would do away with the costly bureaucracy. youtube.com/watch?v=JhNZNcrnUrI >Wouldn't that cause inflation? The federal government recently printed $4 trillion for the bank bailouts in its quantitative easing program with no inflation. Yang's plan for a Universal Basic Income uses mostly money already in the economy. In monetary economics, leading theory states that inflation is based on changes in the supply of money. Our UBI plan has minimal changes in the supply of money because it is funded by a Value-added Tax. It is likely that some companies will increase their prices in response to people having more buying power, and a VAT would also increase prices marginally. However, there will still be competition between firms that will keep prices in check. Over time, technology will continue to decrease the prices of most goods where it is allowed to do so (e.g., clothing, media, consumer electronics, etc.). The main inflation we currently experience is in sectors where automation has not been applied due to government regulation or inapplicability – primarily housing, education and healthcare. The real issue isn’t Universal Basic Income, it’s whether technology and automation will be allowed to reduce prices in different sectors.
Those Yang cucks are shilling their Discord now openly. They're not scared

your butthurt genesis was a result of 2016 I'd say it worked perfectly fine then and it will work just fine in 2020
Robert Flores
PART 4 >But won't he take my guns? He has responded to previous criticisms of his gun views and adapted to it. The only thing he supports are tax incentives to register arms. Since the supreme court is owned by the GOP, it won't be possible to push any meaningful infringement through. Trump "take the guns first, due process later" already came for your bumpstocks. Not to mention that the files required to 3D print AR-15s are already available for download and with the rise of metal 3D-printing, everyone will be able manufacture rifles as he pleases. >LGBT Trump supports LGBT as well, he has promised to "protect" them and his administration vowed to spread gay rights in the entire world. >Immigration Trump said that he wants an INCREASE in immigration as long as it is legal. Yang believes that the border needs to be secured and that illegal immigration has to be prevented and suggested various ways to improve the security of the southern border.
>TPS officially ended ,H1Bs officially lowered, and number of refugees allowed in lowered to a record number. >throw it all away and give illegals citizenship, you'll get free money
>Xinzhong Wang, 67; Liuzhen Mou, 63; Ran Feng, 25; Wei Zhang, 49; Xiaohua Jiang, 31; and Lina Wang, 41, were charged with total of 12 counts of second-degree prostitution promotion through 10 businesses that offered sexual services authorities said in the investigation report were linked to the suspects. They found prostitution was occurring at all spas and massage parlors being investigated.
>Murphy’s pleading comes a week after House Democrats passed legislation to criminalize private gun sales. The House bill, H.R. 8, would not have stopped a single mass shooting during the past ten years, but it would make it a criminal act for a neighbor to sell a gun to a lifelong neighbor without first getting government permission.

i'd take national socialism over this Neocon shit we got now. Redpill me on UBI.
that is true, but still jim webb has better credentials than both trump and yang, and honestly, this yang spam isn't even annoying, watching eva trying to get his 15 minutes is funny
Wyatt Gonzalez
user, all those tomboy pics you've been saving is slowing down the club house network!
Yang cucks just spam the board and openly promote their Discord and Reddit. Literal cancer
Thomas Scott
that's actually a great idea. It's been so easy to false flag them it's kind of sad

Trump wants immigrants in the largest numbers ever. He won’t deport illegals, DACA is a matter of heart. H1-b visaholders will get a pathway to citizenship.
almost as if no one is actually shilling and it's real people. /ptg/ despite being asked for 5 months now has yet to ever provide evidence of spikes of unique IDs coming in at once and/or a timetable showing this.
>drumpcuck accusing others of being discord trannies and redditors
Absolute projection.
Kevin Butler
>Redpill me on UBI White people get $1000 a month to have white babies instead of just welfare niggers who already get benefits. No inflation since no extra money is being printed.
See above, retard.
Dominic Price
If you're a pico-brainlet retard who assumes that tweets are executive orders it's believable.
2 things I would push back on ...or at least say that you should keep in mind: >but they were enough to tip the House blue for decades even before the shitskins started piling in. >blaming democrats for bad immigration over decades
>Boomers between 18 & 39 saw the best of America >blaming boomers for bad immigration
so I would counter with the fact that the changes that happened in 1965 did so without a single boomer voting for it (you had to be 21 or older to vote then) Also, democrats were more anti-immigrant than Repubs up until very recently.

Customs went TOO FAR
>“We are a criminal investigation agency, we’re not an intelligence agency,” the Homeland Security source told NBC 7 Investigates. “We can’t create dossiers on people and they’re creating dossiers. This is an abuse of the Border Search Authority.”
>Wasn’t this resolution directed at the sandnigger?? it obviously was, but the Dems watered it down by making it a "a renunciation ALL hate" and made it apply to jews, muslims, women etc. which is why those NAY votes occurred. Nobody is going to give a shit about it either way because of how obfuscated the vote was from the origin of why it occurred in the first place.
welcome to congress

Trump has always been pro immigration. Back in 2015 he argued greencards for high performing foreign college students should be fast tracked. He still got the support from Republicans because he was the only one who stood against illegal immigration. Now, try and keep up.
LEAKED AUDIO: Google Discusses ‘Steering’ the Conservative Movement
Google’s senior director of U.S. public policy, Adam Kovacevich appeared to describe the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) as a “sideshow Circus,” in a leaked audio recording in which he also argued that Google should remain a sponsor of the conference to “steer” the conservative movement “away from nationalistic and incendiary comments.”
The alleged meeting took place in the wake of Google’s sponsorship of CPAC in 2018, which triggered an internal rebellion from left-wing employees of the tech giant. Breitbart News exclusively reported on the revolt at the time, in which radical left-wingers inside Google accused CPAC of “ethno-nationalism” and “hate.”
Google has not denied the authenticity of the leaked material.
In the audio clip, the other side of CPAC was described in disparaging terms by Kovacevich as featuring a “sideshow circus-like element” which “CPAC organizers have intentionally cultivated sometimes, inviting outrageous figures."
“I want to be clear that we don’t agree with those things, right?” continued Kovacevich. “We abhor and rebuke the offensive things that are said at the conference."
In another audio clip of the same conversation provided to Breitbart News, Kovacevich appeared to describe the importance of reaching out to conservatives in order to counter conservative media, including Breitbart News. Kovacevich warned of “growing negative attention from the conservative media which is influential among those same Republicans who control government.” He went on to accuse conservative media of “pushing the storyline that Google is biased against conservatives.”
