I personally don't see why all these proud MAGAs can't pull themselves up by the bootstraps?

Pretty sure we are out of money. We have to shut everything down to save money. We have to save the money! F the people! Save the money!

Sorry American people. You are just not cost effective and the ROI is too low. And that's no way to run a business! You will just have to deal with it yourself.. or die. Maybe we'll help you next time? Probably not. Depends on how the Emperor feels that day.

We could've just given them a $750 SBA loan like Brandon did, and walked away.

The world's tiniest violin is playing for FEMA. They need a grand culling. All those employees, and people still sleeping in tents waiting on help from revenue they paid in all their lives. It will get fixed, but it won't be to the credit of Brandon.

But "we" didn't.

The US wasted billions, not caring about its citizens.

Now, now after all this you want to shut it down?

Lol

No way we should pay them anything. Thats a terrible ROI. No free money! Shut it all down. Pull yourself out of a flood (or a fire) with your own bootstraps. Here is a paper towel and a rake (just in case).

Trumpy needs golfing money.

No.. you are right ... "We" didn't.

Dems did. Or at least tried to. And by the Gawds maga will stop that nonsense of diversity equality and inclusion and helping others right now.

"The US wasted billions, not caring about its citizens."

Show me.

The US wasted billions,

Mostly by giving it to the wealthy in the form of subsidies.
