Housing is unaffordable because investors drove up prices while interest rates were so low. We don't need more houses, we need more owner occupied houses.

Yeah, but it’s a feature, not a bug. If you wanted, for whatever reason, to destroy the US, you’d be doing exactly what he’s doing. Dividing us, fucking up the economy, denying the masses healthcare, and ramping up the country’s debt. Debt in which China holds a substantial amount. Feature.

He isn't there to lead America and its economy. He's there to raid and pilfer America for his own personal advantage.
Surely you understand this now.
He's stealing your money and bankrupting your country.
And then he'll leave.
Is he wealthier than elon yet?

Donald Trump’s chaotic economic nonsense policies keep making things worse, choking off productivity in the economy and flat-out eliminating prosperity for most of America.

Trump now thinks he can actually talk about affordability?

He stood up to sleepy Don —.dictator and zero

Trump called for Kelly’s death

I wonder how many books he has read in his lifetime. I will take an ⬇️ 50 bet. It's still shocking to see how profoundly empty his life has been with things so basic as the joy of reading a book.

Abolishing ICE is only the beginning. Have you looked at your local cops?

..

According to mappingpoliceviolence.us, police kill at least three people per day; from a meta analysis published in NYT, we now know the number could be six or even more.

The fact that only 3 (by my count) Republican members of Congress have spoken out about the Witkoff situation shows how thoroughly corrupted and compromised the entire party has become from top to bottom. None of this is about just Trump - it is the entire political party.

President Trump's surprising opposition to deregulating local TV ownership could impact the proposed acquisition of TEGNA (9NEWS) by Nexstar (Fox31).

Nexstar then mirrored Trump's language, criticizing "legacy media," "coastal elites," and proclaiming itself "the anti-fake news"
