"Doesn't Do Debts."

Then why the bankruptcies?blame him for lying as much as I blame Republicans for votinf for hm
Republicans listened to him promise all sorts of nonsense and then still voted for him. I don't him as much as I blame them for voting for him!. I suspect their motives were based on the belief that his racism would be a major factor in his Presidency and they weren't wrong.

"The Debt Limit should be entirely scrapped to prevent an Economic catastrophe. It is too devastating to be put in the hands of political people that may want to use it despite the horrendous effect it could have on our Country and, indirectly, even the World. "

orange Hitler says that his Big Beautiful Nill will add $2,4 trillion dollars to the national debt. Does anyone pay attention to this clown any more,

United States should offer Zelensky safe transportatioin to the Hague and back home. If he flew in a Ukrainian plabe it's too likele Puyin would have his fighter jets shoot it down but he might think twicw if it was a American plane, Oh wait, I just remembered who is President. Perhaps a train would be safer travelin in disguise.

""I was (and still am) unapologetically defiant in my support for President Trump."

Brilliant since he's the dope who appointed and still stands behind Fox news Personality Hegseth who is now tretending to be qualified to be Sec, of Defense working for the manpretending to be quakified to be President, The entire administration is made up of unqualified ideologues who are expert ot one thing and onr thing only; kissing Trump's smelly ass!

"Social programs don't replace capitalism They depend on it."

Democrats have never said differently but America has dicovered, the hard way, that unregulated capitalism is dangerous for the nation. in 1932 FDR saved capitalism with the New Deal by putting money in the pockets of those Americans who lost everything during the Great Depression; that caused them to buy goods manufactured by capitalistic which put them back in operation and peoople started depositing money again in regulated banks where depositors felt their money was safe again after the banking industry imploded during that depression and people had lost savings.
It could actually be said that social programs (The New Deal) saved capitalism.

"I voted for Reagan and didn't vote republican again until Trump."

So you had a momentary lapse into sanity but let's just think about what your vote for Reagan actually accomplished. His tax cuts for the rich became the basis for tax policy for every subsequent Republican President after him; including Trump. Clinton became the Clean-up crew for subsequent Democratic President; Paying down deficits Republicans had intentionally run up to justify drastic cuts to things like Medicaid and food assistance. Then Democrats return to power to raise taxes and balance the budget while restoring the parts of the "safety net" destroyed by Republicans. It happens over and over. Remember Geotge W. Bush's campaign when he talked about budget surplus as money owed to high income people which he claimed had been paying more than their share of taxes to justify his tax cuts for the rich. Then, along with too much deregulation of banks; allowing variable interest rate mortgages, which created the housing bubble and the subsequent collapse of the economy in 2007-08. Interesting that Trump has just recently said he planned to lower regulations on the banks again, after Obama increased regulations to insure their solvency which wasn't there in 2007-o8 and did result in bank failures which caused panic in the Bush adninistration and nearly an economic catastrophe to rival the great Republican Depression of 1929.
Sorry for the long post but this war about taxes is really a class war and if Republicans don't look back to 2007-08 and recognize that Trump is going to lead us right back there then we will all be paying for thr Trump Presidency long after he is out of office; as was the case following George W. Bush's foolishness both financially and with his stupid and unnecessary
wars which continued to cost American lives long after he left office!

How many lives would have to be saved to make Trump's decision to eliminate those funds reprehensible?

"Timing is everything."

Lives in his Fox News Bubble thattells him that recoveries after Republicans crashed the economy were just coincidental and didn't result from more sensible budget policies by Democrats because questioning that GQP dogma would get him expelled from the cult.

Dis Bill Clinton balance the buget?

"Ask FactCheck
The Budget and Deficit Under Clinton"

"Q: During the Clinton administration was the federal budget balanced? Was the federal deficit erased?

A: Yes to both questions, whether you count Social Security or not."

Foreign policy is made by the Executive Branch, getting the corrent President to honor the Constitutionally mandated term limits would be the first step to elect a President free from AIPAC which has an unhealthy amount of political power in the U.S. IMHO they are just as bad as the NRA!

"The REAL Reason Republicans Want Medicaid Cuts"

No Repiblican posters here will watch because it might disturb their Fox News bubble that they are afraid to question because Fox News political and social straightjackets are required for membership in the cult; no questioning of Republican dogma will be tolerated and that isn't just a partisan swipe by me; I honestly know people in business; attorneys, sales people, anyone who wants to advance in cirporate America knows that questioning the cult leader's actions or ideas will result in ostracization by cult members which can hurt business significantly. In the good-old-boy-network that is just a reality of life!

Those billionaire donors have to, at least, make back their campaign investments and it those aren't considered tax cuts by the rich; they're really ROI! They expect to recover every penny they invest in campaign bribes to come back to them in tax cuts.

Musk supported the members of the House who passed this bill with millions in campaign contributions and is the ultimate finance reform!"poster boy" for the need for real campaign finance reform! Now the bill will go to the Senate where other benificiaries of his financial support for Republicans helped get them elected and does present a question of loyalty for Republicans; To the cult leader or the guy with the deepest pockets? Wouldn't it be great to watch the coming midterm elections as they play out as a battle between money/Musk and crazy/Trump? Hoping the split will spell disaster for the GQP!

"Senator Lindsey Graham and Senator Richard Blumenthal visited Ukraine and filed separate reimbursement charges on June 1 for $403,172 and $411,634."

Link please? Or did you just conveniently forget?

Those jobs are supposed to be a last resort for employers who can't find American applicants who have the required educations to fill these positions;. So hey, ley's destroy the Dept. of Education and any financial assistance needed by Americans to get the educations required. This is the educational plan designed by a person born rich who never had to qualify for any position he has ever held in his life with the expected disastrous results of multiple bankruptcies in all sorts of failed enterprises he ran into the ground. Basically, his message to aspiring students struggling to be educated is "you should have been born rich!"

"The spokesperson said under Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Richardson "FEMA is shifting from bloated, DC-centric dead weight to a lean, deployable disaster force that empowers state actors to provide relief for their citizens."

I feel so relieved to know that such knowledgeable people are in positions critical to disaster relief. Oh, zsec, Moem, stay the hell away from my dog!

First of mant who realizes that the only way to defeat the billionaire funded Republican Party which is hell bent on turning America into an oligarchy. America will defend democray in spite of the corrupt Supreme Court which the founders intended to be a defender of democracy; they never imagine corrupt members like Roberts, Alito and Thomas. They believed Senate approval hearings would weed out such corrupt appointees but no system in a democracy is perfect.

Nixon's post is the most relevant of the day; especially after Putin hypocritically and ridiculously tried to label Ukraine's attack on the exact military hardware Putin uses to attack civillian targets in Ukraine every single day. butweakling Trump warns of sanctions but is too afraid of his master to do anything real. I think Zelensky and NATO understand that, as long as Putin's bitch is President, Ukraine and NATO will have to carry the war to Russia without U.S. help. But if the Russians want the war to end just hang Putin and the war will be over and the world will be better off! Much like when Hitler killed himself and did the world a huge favor. Putin is too much of a coward to do as Hitler did so the Russian people need to do it for him.

Republican debating tactic: when you don't have facts to support your argument just make s**t up!

""This rescissions package reflects many of DOGE's findings and is one of the many legislative tools Republicans are using to restore fiscal sanity," Johnson said."
Yeah surem those tax cuts cuts for the rich are efforts to restore fiscal sanity and not really just ROI for Republican donors who view political donations as investments.

"Rename it the USNS John Wayne."
n.
I think I'd prefer the USS Rock Hudson.

He is not the leader of the free world and he's trying to remove America from the free world.

"self managed", whatever the ---- that means."

It means freedom from government sticking its nose into things that should be private like conservatives like to pretemd they want.

He wants to harm Harvard because he wants to harm America! He only wants to please Puyin!

"Facts are facts, whether they are able to grok them or not."t
That's just it Corky, as we all know there are many posters here as there are people, out in the real world of America who do not care about facts. Most of them care about supporting right wing ideology, facts are unnecessary for that. and by the way, Booker's gesture was not a Nazi salute; it was just a movement of his arm. A salute is a rigid gesture emphasizing akkegiance like Musk's was because he is a racist Nazi.
