Yes, it's both.
That "Trickle Down" quip IIRC came out of the Mondale camp, all he did is get his ass kicked, so...if she wants to latch onto a loser idea I say go for it.
Anybody stupid enough to fall for her bullsh*t deserves the bite in the ass they'll get from this rabid she-wolf.
I remember fond memories of asking my libiot friends back in the day when they trot that lione out..."So, tell me, how does that 'trickle up' sh*t work, anyway?" and follow it up with "It doesn't work, LBJ tried it with the Great Society handout of trillions over the years...has poverty been eliminated? Nope, it gets worse, why is that?" Their answer is to spend more and dump it into the FSA trough, our answer is to end it and tell people how to fend for themselves.
So far free sh*t is winning, anf the Prog's keep pandering to it because they have no other choice.
Cannot wait for this crap to crash...the demonic scheme has to fall and fall soon.
