kallend 1,822 #1 Posted October 17, 2020 Whatever happened to the right wing deficit hawks? $3.1 TRILLION deficit in 2020 and the debt goes out of sight. No doubt they'll claim that the pandemic is the problem, but surely those good Christians have read the story of Joseph in Genesis 41? (For the pagans, Joseph told the Pharaoh to put away resources during years of abundance so as to have something in store for famine years. Trump, of course, gave away the store to his rich buddies and his own pockets). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So a increase of $6.227 trillion for the US trump debacle. Or in other terms $19,000 for every man woman and child for the four years of trump. Or for evangelicals $2.075,666 trillion for each SC appointment. Oh!... and their souls forfeit to Lucifer of course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was done deliberately in an effort to make spending on anything but the military industrial complex more difficult. Paul Ryan achieved his goal.

So let's resolve that we're saying "fuck that" to the sort of delicate sensibility politics that we libtards instinctively, and dumbly, believe is superior and go straight for the jugular right out of the gate. I'm a runt. I learned early on that there is only one thing bullies understand and that is fearless push back. If we get the Presidency and the Senate the only thing they will understand is pain. No negotiation. Everything 100% our way. Reverse every Trump Executive Order. Defund the current Supreme Court and add 10 fully funded Justices. If possible require all Senators to say "I Heart Kamala" before any next word. Jam it down their throats and make it clear that when they win again, and they will, we will also win again so maybe just stop being bullies and assholes because we are not taking it anymore.

wmw999 2,313 #18 October 18, 2020 Sometimes the mistakes of ones friends or associates are understandable, while the exact same mistakes (or even more neutral actions) from ones enemy or “other” are stupid and unconscionable. Moving goalposts, mote in someone else’s eye, whatever. No one is immune to that, but if you’re raised with a reliance on your own judgment, and with a feeling that questioning yourself is a sign of weakness, then i think it happens more easily. Questioning ones self isn’t weak; there are always questions, and accepting and addressing them is honest. Wendy P. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
