The hardworking American taxpayer under Republicans and the diabolical Trumpf junta

And still no universal healthcare for Americans, as enjoyed by the residents of Israel, Germany, Canada, Greenland, Cuba, Iran, Taiwan, tiny Albania, and in 2027, Mexico.

Is it really that bad in the UAE? Are people there buying fewer luxury sports cars?
