    You are using a whole bunch of words that amount to nothing outside of gibberbabble.
    What is the meaning of a and opposed to an? You are using the blue bird sock again. You are a joke and cannot understand why?

    Liberals and Socialists are the pampered sons of the rich. Abolishing all hereditary rights is the only way we can avoid this slide to the bottom created by those born at the top and their anti-American fathers who insist on making their sons are bosses.

    Why can't GOP derps learn something?

    The debt ceiling has nothing to do, NOTHING, with spending. It is about paying off prior approved debt.

    So if you want to stop gov't debt ballooning, stop it at the budget process by getting republicans to stop voting for tax cuts for the rich while exploding up spending like Trump did.

    You cannot have Trump like GOPers spend a ton, run up the credit cards and then blame the Democrats who have to come in after and pay those prior bills while they get the house back in order.

    There are no particular dangers of covid19. This virus does not kill. DEMOCRATS destroying the economy did NOTHING to stop covid19.

    Trump never promised a balanced budget.

    So what? It did not come up. The fact that Trump jacked the debt over 7 trillion in 4 years matters. He did not promise that either, so I guess it does not count.

    It is a catbird, not a blue bird. Catbirds are gray, btw (although the one in my avatar does seem to have a bit of a blueish hue for some reason).

    What is "it"? You need to learn to use your words instead of just using pronouns without actually referring to anything.

    Yes. This shutdown destroyed businesses and begin the current economic depression.

    Trump did amazingly well, despite the Democrats blocking everything they could.
    * He added a significant length to the wall, and improved quite a lot of it.
    * He successfully renegotiated the NAFTA treaty to better favor the U.S.
    * He got NATO to finally pay it's bills.
    * He got government out of the way to producing coal, natural gas, and oil...reducing prices for all of these commodities.
    * He ended the economic depression that began with the housing crash and persisted through the Obama years.
    * He brought pride and patriotism back to America.
    * He exposed CNN, MSNBC, the AP, and other press organizations as the fiction writers they are.
    * He cut income taxes across the board.
    * He pulled the U.S. out of the ridiculous Paris Agreement.
    * He took the teeth out of the communism called ObamaCare.

    The US gov't has been piling on debt for 230 years.

    Trump in 4 years put 25% of all the debt in that bucket. 1 dollar in 4 due to Trump.
