    I’m guessing a huge percentage of that increase went into Trump family pockets and pockets of their ultra-rich supporters.

    I may lose my health insurance next year when premiums double or triple because of the republicans and the healthcare industries greed.

    We are all in serious trouble and the media and the right are completely ignoring all the signs of the imminent collapse.

      Wow, yeah. Could you even imagine, if every US citizen had $100,000 in the bank?

      Instead 15 individuals have around $2.6 trillion between them and the bottom 78% of Americans are struggling to afford groceries.

    Even if you make same amount of debt every year, the the percentage the debt grows will always go down

    🤓☝🏻

    I’m waiting for trump coming with this graf

    We increased debt only 3% in my period while dems trillions of dollars debt, trillions, it is big numbers, trillions, some say you could even buy minors with such amount of dollars, so many dollars

    With My period is of course meant the time period he was currently thinking about, like in the sense of my time period I have in my head right now (less than a year but I will tell that only if someone say I lay)

          There’s a quote that goes something like “fascism is where 1/3 the population kills another 1/3 of the population while the remaining 1/3 watches.”

          It follows the pattern of every accusation being a confession. I was concerned about this in 2020, seeing all the arguments about voter fraud and such, and my thoughts were that they either committed a lot of fraud in the states they won and are trying to keep the attention on the states they didn’t do fraud in, or because they wanted their opponents to ridicule them about the thing so that their supporters would just think it’s the usual political back and forth where both sides just accuse the other of whatever would help them win.

          I don’t think the truth will ever be known for sure unless there’s confessions at some point.
