So, we'll ignore your transgender obsession.
We'll ignore that the Democrats are better for the economy than the Republicans.
We'll ignore that the Republicans add $200 Billion more to the debt per term, than the Democrats.
We'll ignore all of the law violation that have occurred with DOGE's "saving money" plan, that has cost $135 Billion to save $25 Billion, and is expected to cost $300 Billion in lost tax revenue over the next decade alone.
We'll ignore the tariffs that immediately costa loss of TRILLIONS of dollars in wealth, not to mention driving US business profits down, and putting some businesses OUT of business altogether.
We'll ignore the GDP that has gone down for the first time in 3 years.

We'll ignore all that stuff, and declare Trump a great president.
And we'll ignore all the losses, and declare the 2020 Jets a fantastic football team.


Within 15 minutes of DOGE creating online access accounts, someone in Russia was trying to log in with the correct access credentials:

Anything to justify opposition to spending cuts without actually admitting you support waste and lack of accountabilty in Federal spending.

Might I also add that Democrats defunding things like the police is not by default spending less than Republicans nor is refunding the police the Republicans spending more than Democrats because they had to fix it.

Defund the police wasn't about spending cuts, it was about spending those funds on social programs rather than law enforcement.

Can you imagine the twisted logic that concludes bringing an ms-13 gang member and wife beater back to the US?

Man it must be hard being you what with knowing literally everything there is to know and how to do literally everything better than everyone else.

I know far from everything, but I'm willing and able to do my due diligence, and learn and comprehend.

It's called education. Something the right is so strongly against.

So Trump wanted to shift that $300 million away from law enforcement, and spend it on social programs?

Any ones in particular, or just all in general?

This is what other countries do to our citizens if we "break" their laws. You lefty pricks want to be ******* as America bends over backwards for illegal criminal immigrants over its own citizens.

You think other countries should apply our laws to our citizens who are in those countries?

Damn, that's pretty friggin' entitled thinking.

See, lying again. The only diligence you do is in arguing. You certainly don't investigate both sides of the story.

Shut up clown. I think our country needs to stop listening to the left and stop being soft on criminals.

How did you conclude he thinks other countries should apply our laws to our citizens when they are in that country? He's implying the exact opposite.

It's crazy, not only do they want to be soft on criminals (not named Pelosi), but they want to re-import criminals that we've kicked out of the country. Make that make sense.

The busier they keep Trump with bullshit the less time he has to do right for the country. Like I said, the left are being Un-American and petty because they are being exposed.

Team Blue has sided with excessive wasteful spending and illegal immigrant gang members to oppose Trump. Team Blue is willing to openly under mine the country if means opposing Trump. Crazy thing is the left is gaining ground in many other places around the world - ie both Canada and Australia, who are already a good bit left of the US, are continuing their march to the left. I guess they don't understand that socialism & communism never work - they never even exist anywhere but in the minds of hopeful idiots. Socialism & Communism always just turn into a more authoritarian version of plutocracy, kleptocracy, etc.
