Ready for the deficit to balloon?

[Crepitus]

trump is preparing to bail out farmers suffering from his tariff games.

Last time, in a much smaller trade war, (I know, I never thought I'd say that either) it cost us tens of billions of dollars, actually costing the same as the tariff revenue generated.

And we've been over and over about who pays the tariffs.

It's you, the purchaser.

So trump took your money and gave it to the people he harmed with his silly trade war.

And now we are in a much deeper hole.

Get out yer wallets, folks!

That is inevitable.

A bailout wouldn’t be necessary if Trump hadn’t started his reckless, irresponsible, and unwarranted trade war.

Wait until he passes that bloat deficit-heavy budget.

We'll make up for it by not bailing out student loan borrowers.

"Biden Administration's Actions: Since taking office, the Biden-Harris administration has approved approximately $188.8 billion in student loan forgiveness for 5.3 million borrowers through various programs.

* Potential Future Costs: Estimates for the total cost of President Biden's student loan cancellation policies range from $870 billion to $1.4 trillion. This includes implemented cancellations and potential costs of new plans."

That is inevitable.

But it wouldn't be necessary but for his meddling.

Democrats want to spend 50 trillion dollars on the Green New Deal and saving the planet.

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Republicans want to spend $100 trillion to go to Mars.

I like the idea, if we could send Trump and his cult there.

So they can fuck up that planet too.

Worth every penny.

Dems, worried about a few 10's of billions...

 

[BluesLegend]

Dems should boycott food, stop eating and teach that Trump a lesson!

Better than spending it fixing an unforced error.

On top of the trillions he is already spending?

Fuck yeah we are.

Democrats make Americans pay for sex changes in Guatemala and gay musicals in Ireland.
