@ScottFalk23527 @SittingDuck00 @RBReich The deficit & debt are caused by policies dictated by wealthy Americans & corporations that legally bribe our politicians to create favorable tax laws. Citing the amount they pay w/o regard to their share of national wealth & income is @ best naive, but more blatantly dishonest.

@lippyent The (headlight) dimmer switch on the floor.

@AesPolitics1 Only a fool would believe he could get OPEC & the industry to increase production beyond what is required to meet current demand, create a glut & force down prices & profits. If Trump really believes he could do that, he's an even bigger idiot than I thought.

@omninomsky @ArtCandee My apologies. I didn't realize it was against the teachings of Jesus to help those who are less fortunate. Thanks for setting me straight.

@dgtechllc @ArtCandee By virtually any significant metric, Trump inherited from Biden a much stronger US economy than the 1 he left Biden. Not only that, but he also invested in upgrading the infrastructure you're calling inadequate, vs just talking about it.

@link2reality @ArtCandee & yet, Trump never spent a minute in jail, lived in luxury, traveled in style w/a platoon of govt. bodyguards, ran president & got elected. If Biden is corrupt, he's not very good @ it. He needs to learn from Trump's role model, Vladimir Putin.

@FreedomMAGA9 @RichieJohan @ArtCandee Both Obama & Biden deported more people than Trump. The data is available.

@omninomsky @ArtCandee That $1.8T was 40% below Trump's last budget & (in fact) smaller than all Trump's deficits except for his 1st yr. [That 1 was 2X Obama's last.] The $36T debt could be 0 if you hadn't elected Reagan, W & Trump, & their tax cuts, & incr. military spending & recessions.

@hissgoescobra 2/2:... boards, run by entry level amateur politicians, driven by activist & functionally illiterate parents & funded mostly by the taxes the local zip codes will tolerate. & yet, the Dept. of Education w/its 4000 employees is flagged as the villain in the failure. Go figure!

@acnewsitics Actually, Social Security was 1st introduced in Prussia in 1868 by that notorious commie Otto Von Bismarck. You don't suppose Elon's wizards just accessed the wrong country's database?

@KrisArmstrong1 @FPWellman IL didn't vote for Trump.

Allow me to remind all of you who aren't just supporting but worshiping Trump that he is for all intents & purposes a confessed criminal. I'm not referring to the 31 NY convictions, but to his argument to the SCOTUS that he needed to break the law to do his job properly.

@politicriminal @krassenstein There are laws protecting civil service workers & Inspectors General from arbitrary dismissal. All presidents have respected them. Only the 1 who wants to be a dictator hasn't.

@RustyCo49267490 @krassenstein Agencies set up by Congress by legislation can only be dismissed by replacement legislation, not by EO's. We are on the path to losing our democracy b/c so many people seem to believe the President is a king & has absolute power.

@MSMSucks187 @krassenstein That is not the law. BTW, the Congress & Judges work for the Federal government.

@link2reality @ArtCandee More members of the Trump Administration were indicted/convicted of crimes in office than for all previous administrations COMBINED. For the record, the no. for the last 7 Democratic presidents is 0.

@omninomsky @ArtCandee I bet the people who are starving in Sudan & not getting the food we were sending are not laughing. Neither are the American farmers who have been growing the food we used to send.

@RyGuyFly25 @ArtCandee Respect is not a product of fear. You respect your parents b/c you admire them or b/c of what they do for you. The fact that you think otherwise says a lot about your values & character.

@FreedomMAGA9 @ArtCandee Really? Name 1 accomplishment.
