Your National Debt.

Your options:

1. Trump wins and balloons the debt more than Harris would.


2.)Harris wins and you still see your debt blow up, albeit less.

HAHA now, here's the best part:

Neither Trump nor Harris, nor your political parties give a rat's ass and that is reflective of your citizenry.


I voted twice for a man in 1992 and 1996 who proposed huge spending cuts and large tax increases and said "fix it while we're still strong"--- but as usual, Google Jockeys and Sheeples did not.

And now here you are and the best parts of it is that your tribalistic society isn't able to come together to put it on a better course AND due to bad culture - yes culture - your society needs government to spend money on things the antiquated family used to be responsible for.

You are meeting all the expectations I made for you on TMF.

Do you feel a sense of accomplishment?

Your National Debt.

Last I heard, you are voting in the upcoming election. I’m willing to assume that makes you a US citizen.

As a US citizen, we are all responsible for the national debt.

You don’t get to pawn it off on someone else by calling it “your” debt instead of “our” debt.

But if you do want to play partisan politics with it, I’m quite certain that you know that considerably more of the debt was incurred under Republican administrations than under Democratic administrations.

So stop with the “your” crap. Take some responsibility for your party’s actions.

Impossible for Jedi to do. It would mean coming down from his imagined Mount Olympus where he stands astride the ages, hurling imaginary thunderbolts of punishment upon the heads of those who do not heed his prophesies.

AND THAT DIDN'T PAY BACK A CENT!!!!!!!!

I hope my party adds more to your debt. Another reason to vote Trump.

BTW you whined partisan politics - but pointed out my party - but not yours. I"m billing you 10 billion in debt for that.

Perfect description!

Not the mountain - I'm too lazy to climb one in the first place.

But the thunderbolts are real and adding up :) Billions and billions and trillions :)

And the punishment - has arrived.

Right now, your best case scenario: Kamala Harris. With a whopping 2% governing mandate and presiding over an ungovernable polyglot tribal place.

:) Told you so.

Yes, It's punishment. The punishment is not just that the debt is mounting and you can't do a thing about it - but the above, is your best case scenario :)

Lemme know when you wish to end the personal stuff. And say "ok, hate Trump. But yeah, some of your punishment came true and the reasons u used to warn of, also proven true".

I've done the same on Iraq War and Gay Marriage.

On 2nd thought, this requires thinking on your own. Nevermind, won't happen. And besides, punishment is too fun I don't want to lose the privilege.

And *still* this had nothing to do with the debt. Apathy and baaaa - I love it so much.

Nor does your pawning responsibility off onto others.

At least a vote for Harris is likely to add less to the debt than a vote for Trump.

If you are concerned about debt, voting for Trump is a mistake.

Wait. I forgot that you are the god on high dispensing your idiotic “wisdom” for others to sit in awe at. I’m in awe as well - in awe at the combination of arrogance and stupidity. It’s rare to see so much of both in a single person. But you still fall short of your disciple Trump in that category.

So he’s as useless as the Greek “gods” of old — lots of talk, no practical action.

Yup! You and me both :)

"Whew!" again didn't take me up on it.

And it's lovely that both candidates wish to cut taxes and increase spending.

And Wool Sweater is not concerned and is helpless :)

Anther 10 billion added now.

My, profitable thread. For some :)

Yes. Maybe we should change the name of this board to Dems Explain How the World Works To The MAGAs?

Reality check...
Don't like massive debt and deficits? Don't vote for the GOP.

George Bush (41) took the deficit to -$300 billion per year.

Clinton got it to zero. During his presidency, Clinton managed to zero out the deficit and end his term with a +$128 billion per year surplus.

Lil' Bush (43) went from a surplus to -$1.4 trillion per year.

Obama halved it to -$600 billion per year.

Trump, "The king of bankruptcy" then ramped the deficit up to an unheard of -$2 Trillion per year!

"Trump is a @#$%ing moron!" ~Rex Tillerson, Life-long republican

Bill Clinton? The last President who presided over a budget surplus?

Somehow I find that claim dubious.

Bill Clinton?

Like a baby duck, Jedi waddled onto the stage of his political consciousness and immediately imprinted on Pat Buchanan in 1992.

He’s been quacking ever since that the country signed its own death warrant by not electing Buchanan.

Pat Buchanan- Steve Bannon in a suit.

Loved Buchanan.

Still do. Not everything about him but many things. I'm not a MAGA-NAZI who has to be 100% in or out - you are. Baaaaa Sheeple.

Perot I got petitions signefor and voted for. Perot actually said about Buchanan: "If you hate people, I don't want your vote" He also said about Buchanan's Culture War DNC speech "if a candidate is preaching hate messages at the convention, I expect the nominee to go lift him off the stage". Perot was ardently pro-life also.

BUt, Sheeple has to fixate on persons only - Sheeple cannot discern.

Which is why, Shell's democracy is in peril, and Sheeple has no choice but smug denial that punishment - has arrived :) Baaaaaaa from the non diverse bubble ghettos :)

But then again. a Cheney NeoCon wants Americans to do kill Muslims and die for Israel. Buchanan - does not.

I can see why you differ with him and I respect your views - as murderous as the results always turn out to be.
